Minnesota/Wisconsin Flight Simmers!
« on: May 06, 2003, 05:46:44 PM »
We're planning another get together at Doolittle's Air Cafe in Eagan, Saturday, May 24th, at 7pm.    Dinner, drinks, and great conversation with some legendary flight simmers.

Well, OK, maybe I haven't achieved legendary status in YOUR minds yet, but hey, Yak will be there.   And he MAY have some cigars to pass out, who knows?

Everyone's welcome!  Just sing out in this thread so I know how many tables to reserve!

Looking forward to seeing you guys.   Gainsie?

Disregard that question, I stayed at the Eagan Hilton while on business, geez, didn't recognize the name. Too far for drinks from Winnipeg, and I get the feeling Canuks not welcome yet in light of our government's prettythang-H$%# stand on the war. :(

Steve:

Was a time when the Minnesota Vikings and the Green Bay Packers had a fierce rivalry up there in the Nort'land.  If you were a cheesehead drinking with a toe-head(not too often), it ended up in a brawl, because the toe-head is still pissed about losing all those Superbowls, and the cheesehead who talks of ole' Vinnie, as if he walked on water,  and drinks more brandy than beer, will say....."You looking for a fight (insert the word "aye?"), Mr. cyclops("aye?"), well go ahead and fight, my wife is ready for you".....:D

Uhh I know all those things.  :)

Like I said, I grew up in Minnesota(Edina)
A have a house on White Sand Lake in Wisconsin(Lac Du Flambeau)

Our family has 4 excellent seats at Lambeau, well 2 now to be honest... 2 were lost in divorce, can you believe that?  tickets lost in a divorce.. that's how serious   us Packer fans are...my uncle used to work for  Heilemann(sp?), so he was able to acquire the option to buy the seats from his contacts at the Packer office.  We can often pay for the whole season of tickets by selling only one game or two.

So, like I said. I'm a toe-cheese head.   :)
