HEY QUEEN B! i dont get baseball. At all.
Man throws ball at man with stick trying not to let him hit it, man stands behind man with stick hoping man doesnt hit it so he can catch it.(sounds suspiciously like piggy in the middle) If stick holding dude hits ball with said bat he runs like his a** is on fire while the men on the other team try to skelp him on the dome with the ball he just hit or try to get to some little dots on the funny shaped field so they can start running again if thier team mate hits the ball. Am i anywhere near the actual game? crazy yanks and thier crazy games lol. BTW my footy team won tonight the mighty one and only GLASGOW RANGERS! MON THE GERS, GERS, TEDDY BEARS! YAY!!!!

MnM don't want to appear slow(er than usual) but what is an Egg cream? We have a sweety over here called a cream egg (little chocolate egg filled with white and yellow fondant) is it the same thing or something completely different love kitty x
Kitt- GOOGLE .-NY city egg cream- -it can explain the process better than me- - its kinda like a special milkshake- - no eggs or cream involved though- - go figure * *
*Oh -Kit ,I saw this special on the "telly" on foods of Scotland- not to get down on you guys - but whats up with this shi& called Haggas- - It is all the insides of a lamb -and they go thru this process of making this stuff and packing it up like a big ball- - Not for nothing, but I almost got sick watching them make it- never mind actually eating it
Whats up with that?? A holiday thing? Must be a food for the old timers- I cant imagine it being scoffed up by the younger Scots- -
*******************************************************************************
Sandra-
If ya wanna meet up in December - that would be fine with me. I could meet ya in a Northern NJ diner- -or any deli in Manhattan- - your choice- - depending on which is easier, I don't wanna take ya out of your way
It will be December and cold , so if ya wanna stop at the new soup Nazi place- it re-opened in July at 259A West 55Th Street in NYC, under the name The Original SoupMan.I think it was the Internation Soup kitchen when it became famous on TV.
It,s close to the Lincoln tunnel- Ive never been there , I'm sure its overpriced and mobbed
Just don't ask for free bread

Wait a minute. Did nobody see Alice P's post?
Y'all did and chose to pretend it was not there. Note how M&M is talking Egg Cream. Totally pretending BOSOX didn't even play this year.
Yeah Jack bring it. Alice and I will get ya Tony Lukes, and a pretzel. Maybe a wadder ice if it's unbelievably warm again this year.
Oh yeah I got married to Carlos Ruiz so I'm taken all you single ladies. I mean men. Chanelling Beyonce for a minute.
Kitt girl whatch you talkin bout? In a way you actually got it right. Yeah and they better run like their a*s is on fire. Get over here and we'll teach with a stick. It's called stick ball ya play on the street. Or halfsies. It will give you the basics sort of.
Well, good for your team Kitt cause I don't get "soccer" either, O.K.? Had boyfriends that played but chose to watch them in their lil shorts and removing their shirts. We have a league here anyway now so booooyah.
Kitt Jack is a Yankee's fan. Their New Yorkers. Save for the Muts I mean Mets. They're in our league. M&M she's a da*n Red Sox fan. Better known as BOSOX cause they're outta Boston. See, now my team the Phillies they won the National League East for the fourth year in a row. That's a big deal. So by osmosis you are now an honorary Phillies Phan. A Fightin. A Phanatic lover. You will bleed pinstripe.
Oh and you will despise The Braves. That's Atlanta. They do chopping motions like a hatchet. They even have a huge cow that chops. The Met's are our rivals but are decent fans to us. Not the Braves. The Nationals well admittedly I enjoy the Nationals. I shouldn't say that.
O.K. got that now? Good. A home run is what you want. Bases loaded and a homer I mean. RBI's are runs batted in. In my opinion the catcher is the most important player in the game. That's wrong but I say so. It's really the short stop.
Ohhhhhhhhhhh and if you like guys all scruffy we got a cutie. Werth. He's worth it.
Egg Cream. Pffffffffttttttttttt. I got Peanut Chews and nobody else does. Crab fries too so there.

No Tony Lukes, got to take Jack to John's get some nice roast pork with some sharp provolone, bit of broccoli rabe or spinach if so inclined....
Mangia!
I am so hungry and craving a pepperoni cheese steak!
And yes Alice was looked right past so I will jump on in with them phils, cause they are lookin mighty fine! As long we ain't talking Eagles things are good ;)
And I LMAO with Kitty's description of the game, it was one of the best ways I have ever heard baseball described...
Now we need to teach her about half ball...

Hi Tina
Every time they show a scene from a downtown Philly area- I always see that Geno,s cheese-steaks- -whats up with that?? - Just a famous place that is good for a quick shot on TV??
OK-here it is- If Philly win everything, I will take the ride to Philly and meet you guys any where you want- -Ill even cheer them on Broad St.- -
But- If the New Yorkers will it all- at least 1 of you guys gotta come up here and we,ll try to watch the parade (from the Canyon of Heroes)- -
The best deli down that way is near the Bowery - called Katz,s - Giant pastrami sandwiches with spicy mustard- -20 yrs ago I used to cop ,get off, and run into Katz,s and get a big pickle to go (who had $$ for lunch back then)
http://www.katzdeli.com/
So that's the plan- - we,ll see what happens- -there are a lot of games to be played
I really hope we can pull this off, I think it would be pretty neat- -but 1 of our teams must co-operate
later

Pat's steaks and Geno's Steaks, the gateway to the italian market...
They are right across the street from each other with a longstanding feud of who has the best steaks.
Geno's is where most who are from the city prefer. Usually everyone knows Pats, but they don't win this war....
You know I really don't want to be counting the cars on the jersey turnpike ;)

Well thank you, Jack.
Halladay no hitter. Unbelievable. Elated over here. Should have been in my seat, but they changed mom's medicine and she is whacked. I was like "Day-um you're that whacked ya might as well be on narcotics for heaven's sake". Her heart rate at rest has to be faster than Halladay's was learning he had a no hitter post season. It was 182 yesterday at the Doctor's.
Yeah, Tina Kitt's description could be a comedy act. She's right though.
Geno's. Joey's a classic. How we never got a sunburn from all that neon is beyond me.
Yo, T you get those panzeotti's? Jack, do y'all have them? You probably invented them.
Thank God for baseball is all I can say. Thank God for all you guys here is all I can say.
Much Love, Mrs. Ruiz

It's a win-win situation as long as good food is involved. That's my motto and I'm sticking with it.
Happy Halladay Jack!
