Bits and Pieces

Well, if they hadn't delayed the start of last night's Cubs game by 35 minutes waiting for a phantom thunderstorm that apparently missed the ballpark -- we had about two minutes of rain and they covered the field at about 6:55 PM -- they might have finished the game on schedule. As it was, the rain arrived in earnest after the seventh inning and I left. They played another half-inning before covering the field for the final time. But the Cubs won and my fantasy first baseman hit two homers, so I did ok. :)

The official messiest food at the park has to be the chili dog nachos that are new this year. Burp.

My changes to the initialization for our tab control all seem to be working fine, so I've checked them into ClearCase. Yay!

I have, I think, successfully preserved my about-to-expire United Mileage Plus miles by having lunch at the pizzeria across the street and paying for it with my Discover Card that's linked to the Mileage Plus dining plan. We'll see if the miles show up in my account. And it was pretty decent pizza.

jeff_duntemann is joining us for dinner tonight. He must like us, because the menu for tonight is "leftovers". :)

It's only taken me four years or so to figure this out. e Jays But I can be happy when the Cubs win. I could never remember if the Cubs were the same leauge as the jays. But you're not. So unless both teams make the finals I can not about you winning.

Sometimes I am so slow

Sue and I plan to go and see Chicago play the blue jays here this summer as our internet provider, rogers, has offered us two free tickets to any game of our choice. Wahoooo! Now who do I pull for? :-\ I sent you an email Bill with new instructions for uploading files to our FTP site. Dave had a problem doing it so we revised the instructions and are having people upload directly to the site. Received track from Dave today after we were on the phone with him for an hour talking him throught the setup on his computer and all worked well. I am sure you will have no problem. Take care and we will see you at Duckon.

What is on these chili dog nachos? By that, I mean what do they put on top of the chips?

[billroper]

Chili, nacho cheese, and hot dog slices. Not enough hot dog slices, in my opinion, but...

Interesting combination. Not coming close to kitchen sink nachos, but quite possibly well on the way.
