C'mon U.P. north.
I've got a Jr.High boys double on Monday.
$33.00 and nothing to drink.
I'll split it with you.

They pay airfare, right? ;)

If so, I'll be there, and I'll bring some water.

I'd love to take you up on the offer but I'd be travelling South not North and I'm afraid its too far away.
BTW up here we would only get about $20 loonies for that level of game and thats worth about $12 in US GREEN!!! Thanks for the offer though and <u>do a professional job for everyone concerned</u>.
Pistol

Pistol,
Well, I kicked that! The South part is bad enough, not to mention 2000 miles East. Are you sure you live there?

...the professional part. I'll have to make a note to try that.

From what Ihave read over a lot of posts you should have no problem.

Please - shoot me now before the memory of this game burns in.

I like the Ughly - very funny.

Here in Canada many venues have the Nevco score clocks. I've thought of a new button on them: Factor. What you do is press Factor, then a number from 0 to 100, then Yes. The number represents the percentage of a second that lapses until another second ticks off the clock. So let's say you go Factor - 80 - Yes: your game will really be 80% of 32 minutes, or 25.6 minutes. I'm not sure anyone will notice that the clocks ticks fast, especially when it's being consistent.

Mike,
What an excellently, deceiving way for the media to fit a game in a slot. Oh, my!
