Thanks for the updates Dr. Mel. But I wouldn't start worrying about it until around X-Mass.

RickBomba · 11-09-2012, 07:10 PM

Dr. Mel...I wonder if anyone remembers him, aside from you and I...

RickBomba · 11-17-2012, 03:12 PM

I'm going to buy some shirts, if anybody is interested in others. Let me know.

The Dad Fisherman · 11-19-2012, 06:09 AM

I was in central mass this weekend....ice was just starting to skim over on some of the ponds. low 20's at night.

soon......

mag minnow · 11-19-2012, 05:37 PM

If I'm not out of town I want to do this. Just need to plan on getting a room and losing 2 days of my life....

It's usually the opposite of losing 2 days. A normal 2 days can be easily lost. 2 days out there is hard to forget once you figure out what happened! Lol. Good times!

Craig,

We'll make sure that there is way more Bread and Circus this year. You can't apply last year's fun to the normal tourney. There's usually way more shennanigans.

Rob, can you let me know the name of the new shiner store? We'll pick them up for my crew when we get there on Friday.

Thanks,
Rick

Every year I say the same thing. Wish I was closer.

eelskimmer · 11-23-2012, 12:58 PM

Made it last year and had some good fun
with youse guys. I will be in Florida thru
January and know the Bomba boys will
have a moment of silence to mark my
absence. Good luck to all and stay sober
until you get the holes drilled--at least.

UUGH,
We'll miss you, John. I'll make sure that Brad sets us up with a round of Morgan shooters for you.

RickBomba · 11-23-2012, 03:43 PM

Just bought some shirts (5). Let me know if anybody is interested in any, or you can just go to the website and buy them if you like.

Rappin Mikey · 11-23-2012, 06:50 PM

John Pollack must attend!!!!!

Wicked bad luck to drill holes before the first beer

OR THE FIRST SHOT/S

RickBomba · 11-24-2012, 04:31 PM

mmm...I remember trying to open a beer before trying to punch the holes the year we had all the slush...It was so cold that the beers froze in about an hour.

Rob Rockcrawler · 11-23-2012, 06:54 PM

The shiner store didnt start carrying them yet i will keep you posted about it.

striperman36 · 11-25-2012, 08:05 PM

wait, it won't last, unfortunately, we have a warm spell coming

RickBomba · 11-27-2012, 07:23 PM

Yup...looks like next week is going to be between 41-48 out there every day. I'd say that we've had a better start than last year at this time, though.

Still haven't turned on the heat in the house yet!

I'll put up another forecast this time next week.

Unlike last year, we have another two weeks of cold in January (and I get to go to Bob's party for once).

Later,
Rick

Later,
Rick

And Me & Liam are 99% in - Scout camping is the week before

Maybe have Boomer the Sled Dog pull the sleigh

BTW - Boomer is the one driving

RickBomba · 11-27-2012, 07:50 PM

I'm still looking for a place to park on the South Side near rt.20. Looks like Streeter is closed in the winter and the only place to park is the Long Pong Boat Ramp on the north side of rt. 20.

Rob or Raven, can you guys send me a pm and let me know where we should be parking?

If we need to, we can always go back up to Champeaux Rd, but I'd like to try the south side of the res.

Thanks,
Rick

striperman36 · 11-27-2012, 08:00 PM

Next week is not a happy ice week for sure.

the rest of dec should be above normal tempurature wise, then Jan. below average

Rob Rockcrawler · 11-27-2012, 08:41 PM

I will scope it out this weekend. I know that even though the main lot there is closed during the winter there is still room for cars i will get a count. I may have another option as well. PM to follow.

RickBomba · 11-28-2012, 07:35 PM

Thanks Rob. Keep me posted. I'll attach a pic of what I'm thinking about for what I'm thinking about for parking.

WESTPORTMAFIA · 11-28-2012, 08:12 PM

Glad it's on the right side of the pond this year. It will be worth the parking headache. Starting to get a crew together. Can't wait for the REAL BBQ place. Can't remember the name for some strange reason

But last time we were there the owner said it was a BYOB joint. Luckily for Joe and I we had a 30 pack in the truck. Rick post the name if you can. UNREAL smoked BBQ with all the fixings. The owner is a great guy and takes pride in his food. It's a small hole in the wall in a small town and has been very busy the few times we visited. I have only been there 3 times and the owner was there every time WORKING and taking pride as he should. Nothing like it around!
