[Milwaukee Midget]

You're still in your youth.

And I intend to stay that way! At least mentally!

Trent, it's been working for FREUD, lo these many years.

When I grow up, I want to be a kid again.

If you do it right - as Glenn has - you end up with the intelligence of experience, the wisdom of maturity, the recklessness of puberty, the enthusiasm of youth, and the imagination and sack to act on the possibilities such a combination can bring under the guise of feigned senility. 

I've changed my mind - I don't want to be a kid again - I want to be FREUD.

For a few years now (don't ask how many, please) I've described myself as "rapidly approaching middle age".  Let them in the audience figure out what I mean by that.

No, I SAID that Slim!

Well, seeing as Trent is the one you quoted, and ascribed his quote to me, should we assume you overshot the exit ramp?

Chris,

Ralph Thomas, of "Highlander" fame, has seen fit to comment about the Milwaukee Midget on the VRRF forum thread I started about the "Grenade".

The link is:   http://www.vintageracerules.com/forums/ubbthreads.php/topics/9711/999.7cc_BMC_'A'_series_Land_Sp#Post9711

Are the USFRA records for Bonneville separate from the SCTA records for Bonneville?   The SCTA records page still lists Ralph and the Highlander as the I/GT record holder.

Mark, I doubt any of the records have been updated yet on the SCTA site.  Remember it is a volunteer organization.   Rest assured, the midget is the new LSR I/GT record holder.

Wow, is that today?

I have the Cubs/Brewers game on the radio.

I love seeing a race to the bottom . . .

Cheer up, Bunky -

Like they say in Wrigleyville -

"There's always next year!"

But I will say this much for the Bears -

That first quarter, where they ate up almost 9 minutes of the clock with a mid 1970's Ohio State type running game?  Had they stuck to that plan, rather than letting Cutler demonstrate his lack of aerial abilities, well, it could have been closer.

"There are three things that can happen when you throw a football, and two of them are bad." - Woody Hayes

Yeah, I had both Flatlander/Cheesehead games going today - one in the garage, one in the basement.

But hey, buddy, the Cubs avoided a 90 game losing season! 

And the Brewers entertained us all with the worst late season collapse of a national league team since 1969! 

There is no joy in Mudville, and I find myself heading into October cheering on the Cardinals once again.

I find myself cheering the Cardinals in October with regularity. STL is a baseball town.

Steve - and keep in mind, this is from a Cubs fan and also a fan of the American League Brewers, whom the Cards defeated in a 7 game series in '82 . . .

My experience is that Cardinal fans are among the most welcoming and knowledgeable baseball fans of any team I know.  On top of that, the Cardinal organization is among the most consistent teams in all of baseball.  

And I also think that the National League Central Division has become one of the toughest divisions in Baseball.

So I'll continue to pull for the Cubs, and I'll support the Brewers, but come October, if neither Chicago or Milwaukee are in the picture, you'll find me screaming at the TV at McBob's or Stenny's or the Wunder Bar, pulling for the Red Birds.

You're lucky to have them in your back yard - they play good baseball.
