Supply and demand. There are thousands of kids involved in sports around here and there is no charge for using the fields. It is strictly supported by tax payers and commercial sponsors. It's a classic example of "Build it and they will come"! In a situation like you said, they would just have to schedule it after the regular planned season. They will let them reschedule, just stay off my wet lawn is the rule and is strictly followed. You oughta see the baseball fields that are public supported around here. The would put a major league ball field look like a sandlot. The infields and outfields are like carpets.

I don’t know what the park fields look like after today, but from what I heard from kiddos teammates is our club fields didn’t look too bad. I’m hoping it’s the same for the parks.

If soccer canceled every time it rained then kids would not get enough soccer.lol Soccer season is Spring and Fall.. both generally rainy times here. The rule is ‘no lightening’ not ‘no rain’... but, usually heavy rains see cancelations for the well being of both players and the fields.

Well, the reason I've never had one is because I am not brave enough. When I was in college, our cafeteria would sometimes have them for dessert. I had never heard of them, but one of our friends got one and I don't remember HOW it happened, but somehow the whoopie pie ended up open-faced upside-down on a plate, and when she tried to pick it up, it lifted the entire plate and all its contents on it, like it was denture paste. It rather turned me off...I wondered if it was like chewing gum, that it wouldn't break down for years and years, just taking up space. So I never had the guts to try them, and I'm sure anywhere but our cafeteria would have been fine...our cafeteria was not great. I got sick every time I ate pork there, even just a bite of it, and it always had a weird taste to it, like a sheep barn. I stopped eating pork there at all after the 3rd time it happened. I ate a lot of cereal because it was often the only thing that seemed safe. But that image of the plate being lifted by the frosting sticks in my mind and I chicken out every time.
The frosting is a really thick icing. It would be better if it was more of a butter cream.

I went shopping with my sister and niece today. My goal was to get some pants, and mission accomplished. We also had a nice lunch and had cupcakes before going home. I brought home some to share with Brad too.

Cupcakes. Top left as then in clockwise order pumpkin spice, triple chocolate, chocolate peanut butter, butter beer. I ate half the pumpkin and half the triple chocolate and it was yummy. I’m waiting to try the others with hubs tomorrow.

Owning my laugh about the icing sticking the pie to the plate... it's more of a suction type sticky, than a paste consistancy. The Amish ones I have had are not dry, and the cream is very fluffy and creamy.

Sad face for bad pork!

With proper restraints maybe. Astronauts would have issues with the restraints, or lack of, on that ride.
Are we talking about the same ride? The pic was of Stormrunner, which has decent restraints. Skyrush is the one with the lousy restraints. We did that twice today. Mostly because it was a walk on. Partially because I thought to myself, "Hey, my thighs could use a good beating."

Well, I guess it will remain on my bucket list and maybe someday I will have both the opportunity and the courage at the same time and actually try one.

And yes, very sad face for bad pork. I just stopped even trying it there.

I think I need to invest in my own frying pan so @figmentfan423 and I don't have to keep sending hers back and forth. We told hubby's parents we'd be there after lunch, he goes out last night until 4:00 to play Ingress, comes home, sleeps in. I get up to make breakfast, with which he does not help. He comes in, criticizes what I did, because there were 2 packages of bacon in the fridge and one was dated to be used BY the 25th....today is the 27th. So I didn't use that one. He says it was fine, and I could have used it. You want to give yourself food poisoning, go right ahead, and while you're at it, make your own dang breakfast if you don't like the way I do it! Then, it's 10:30 in the morning and he says "Do I have time for a bath?" I said "Probably not. I still need to take a shower and we're supposed to be at your parents' after lunch. You can't take a bath for 2 hours." He jokes "How about an hour and a half?" and then I finally make my OWN breakfast, and come upstairs to hear the bathtub filling. :banghead::banghead::banghead: He implies that I'm lazy because I wasn't scheduled to work this week (they actually had to ask people to cancel their hours because it's so dead) even though I mowed the lawn, de-iced the freezer, cleaned out the fridge, etc along with all the daily stuff like laundry, grocery shopping, cooking, etc while HE goes out and plays Ingress at all hours. I may have to go on strike so he can feel what life is like when I'm actually lazy. If anyone sees a good deal on frying pans, let me know.

I thought that was Skyrush. Regardless, my body does not like all the newer crazy coasters. Maybe I am more wimpy then I was when I was your age.

No words except for I am guessing his mom always did everything for him at home. Sorry. If it was me I would be livid. I couldn’t handle the game playing like you. You are so tolerant. I hope work picks up. Holiday season is coming so it probably will.

Answer to the first question.... Getting a hair cut! :D

Second question... OLD? 50? :eek: Older then you perhaps, but not dead yet. I'm pushing 72 and I think you would probably faint if you knew the "childish" things that I do on a daily basis. PS... not caused by senility.🤭

Well old for what he was talking about
