I don't know what we'd do, though. But then, if we come visit you, all we have to do is complain about how bored we are until you get so fed up you take us to a pizza place so we'll shoosh.

I loled. Obviously sans Amber.

Welcome Draken! What part of Pennsylvania do you live in? I have always wanted to visit Philadelphia. Maybe when my road trip that I have been planning for years actually happens.

i to would like to join up


location: Broken Arrow, Oklahoma
Born and raised: Claremore, Oklahoma

not alot to say about the state or town. BA is a suburb of tulsa, theres more to say about tulsa, bars, casinos (only on indian owned land), pool halls and a few clubs. lots of buisnesses slow turning into mexico haha
on same hand theres not much to say about oklahoma, best thing to do here is party and some of the best looking women in the country (imo), 3.2 beer. but contrary to popular beleif we do have houses, the cowboy way is almost dead (YAY!) we have cars cable TV and internet. buffalows are not roaming the open range and indians dont run around scalping people (often.... j/k). Flat land & crazy weather about sums it all up

[Sinister]

Brewers AND Cardinals, James. And Cardinals... They share the lead...or...they did. Not sure about last game. Haven't been able to watch much lately. But then Cardinals bullpen has been...dead. As usual. And the Braves...pfft...nvrmnd.

Welcome Meier!

Also, Brandon, I have no idea what the hell you are talking about, if it is even being referred to me. I imagine it is baseball. I know it our past time and all, but I cannot get into it for some reason. I have been to a Marlins game, and I fell asleep.

Where did everyone go? The Australians are beating us. The Australians. Does this scare no one else?

[OceanEyes28]

Bah, Australians. Kangaroos.

And yeah, I went to a Cardinals game with my youth group when I was in middle school and I think we left early because we were all so bored. We started out all excited... and then we realized we were only in the second inning. But then, it's not hard to bore a 12 year old.

I might give it another try.

[Roxasnerdgirl]

Is this baseball we're talking about? Never been to an actual stadium, though I've watched countless games on TV with my uncle. Fun for a while, then it just feels so repetitive. Usually get bored and hide out in my room to come on here...

Why are we trying so hard to beat the Aussies again? They're really nice here, so it doesn't seem like such a bad thought to me.

Just some friendly competition, I guess. Doesn't really matter to me.



I live in Central Pennsylvania. Middle of everything in the state.

If you ever visit or even pass through PA, you need to check out Hersey Park and the town around it, Hershey. I mean it. It has everything for the whole family or just the couple wanting something different.

Zoo America, Hershey Hotel (w/chocolate baths), Factory tours, 3D theater, Rides, games.... I go every year. lol

[Meier Link]

yeah i have family in PA (cant remember the name of the town right now) and ive been wanting to visit there, seeing i only ever get to see them when they come here. i really need to make it up that way haha i heard its really fun up there.

I used to be the same way. I used to hate baseball. Somehow, a couple years ago, I started to get into it. Now I'm a little obsessed.

But the Brewers have dropped 2 straight. I might kill myself. Though probably not.

As for the Australians, I'm prepared for war. A WAR OF FRIENDSHIP!!

Exactly.

One of the things I don't like about baseball is that you have no idea how long they will go on for. It all depends on how long the inning lasts. In football, you are going for 3 to 3 and a half hours, even with overtime.

Did anyone watch the Office last night? I am so disappointed how bad it has gotten. I fell asleep during it. The British version is so much better.

[OceanEyes28]

Now that's a good war.

And no... I did not. I didn't know new things were coming on until like... 10. I missed new Scrubs.

I'd like to watch the British Office. Sucks that our version has, according to your report, gone downhill.

[Ryayukou]

Hmm, mind if I join?

Born and raised in the U.S., and despite what other countries say, I'm proud of it! I believe we have an amazing history and lifestyle, and while of course there's things that go on that are "typical American" I wouldn't change my citizenship for anything.

I was born in southern California, in Glendora. My father being in the military, we moved a lot and went to most of the 'States. Due to moving so much, my mom home-schooled my three siblings and I until my dad retired in '98 and we moved to Idaho. I went to and graduated from a public high school, and now I go to college here.

For those who know anything about Idaho, you think 1 of 3 things: 1.) it's the land of potatoes, 2.) Its where Napoleon Dynamite was filmed, or 3.) No one knows where it is. I've heard them all.

I've traveled quite a bit, and last year I was very fortunate to visit Japan and Israel. I'm glad to have a home turf, and even though it's great meeting different people and visiting different cultures, I love being able to drive in controlled traffic and speak to someone in English. Ha.

[Sinister]

Sorry, James, I was talking to Brad. Haven't gotten used to calling people by their rn yet ><. But I happen to be an avid fan of baseball. I was at the world series games when the Cards won in 2006. Pitching errors were everywhere ><

As for Baseball being boring. It's all a matter of perspective some people aren't inclined towards a sport like it. Some think it's a little silly. Some think it takes too long(which sometimes it really does). Some...blah blah.

But the reason that I love it is the strategy involved. It's an underground game of chess played by managers from the opposing teams. Each move their pieces and align them as best as they can(according to stats) but there is an element of luck and the variable of skill for the entire team. It's just such an intricate sport.

[James K. Polk]

The one line that I found absolutely hilarious in Thursday's Office was "I can't prove it, but I think she might be trying to poison me." The rest of the episode was so bland. The British Office was okay, but the American creepy guy (Dwight) is so much better than the British.

I don't even remember what happened on Scrubs. Show's how interesting the episode was.

The Brewers have now lost 3 straight. It's crying time.

[Walter Sobchak]

Welcome, Rya!

And Alisyn, I felt the Office started going downhill halfway through Season Three, and Season Four has been uninteresting at best. I am kind of sad to see Scrubs circling the wagon, though. Just end!

Heres a subject: Whats the price of gas in your town? Here, it hovers from 3.25 to 3.39 for regular unleaded. It hurts a lot. I am saddened by it indeed.

[Ryayukou]

Hmm, let's see.... the cheapest here is Costco gas, which is about $3.20 a gallon. Next are Albertsons and Fred Meyer, who sell for about $3.25. Most expensive is Shell and Chevron, which the highest so far is $3.39. My roommate just bought a motorcycle, I'm thinking of doing the same.

[Sinister]

It's WAS around 3.39 here. Tao only knows what it is now. I usually don't keep track of it until it's time to refill and then I'm surprised and disenchanted at the same time, grumble about it and then forget about it. I would be truly upset but it never helps to gripe about something you can't change. In the end, you're only making it worse.

-Sin

[James K. Polk]

I think gas is up to about $3.46 to $3.50 a gallon. Thank God that when it comes to gas mileage my Escort is a tank. I get gas probably once every 2.5 weeks. Still hurts when I have to get it, though.

Why the hell is it so expensive up here?

[OceanEyes28]

Yeah, I walk whenever I can for a reason.

In Savannah, our lowest price is $3.22 and the highest gets to $3.49. Meanwhile, back home in Little Rock, the prices range from $3.15-$3.33. No fair.

When I get somewhere around half a tank, I usually fill up $10-$15 at a time and do what I can with it unless I'm on a long road trip. I love my gas mileage. Thank goodness for that.

[Roxasnerdgirl]

Gas? Here it's about an average of $3.70 or something. The cheapest I've found with my brother was in Santa Ana for I think $3.63. That was the last time I checked though. I'm like Sinister. I'm annoyed while I'm at the station with my mom thinking "Just think of how much manga could be bought" then I totally forget about it after we pull out.

Problem is really that both my mom and brother commute. My mom fills up the tank maybe every four to five days and my brother every week. Little Toyota Camry s love their gas. ><
