Need advice
« on: September 29, 2015, 01:14:33 pm »
If I were to have purchased tickets for any games that may or may not occur following Sunday, what sort of sacrifice is necessary to appease the BBGs?  Are we talking a Frito Pie, a spider, a live chicken, what?

That is precisely what I had in mind when I wrote it. I would be happy to meet someone for lunch this week for the sacrifice, if anyone has any interest.

I can only do Friday, but you should go ahead and get your tickets.

Yes, but it's the post-season, so you have to eat the chicken stomp on the frito pie and cut the head off the spider.

The rules of distinction were thrown out with the baseball cap.  It does not lend itself to protocol.  It is found today on youth in homes, classrooms, even in fine restaurants.  Regardless of its other consequences, this is a breach against civility.  A civilized man should avoid this mania.

It's the Goode Co. Armadillo Palace next to the original Goode Co. and across the street from Goode Co. Tacqueria and Hamburgers on Kirby.

Bonus points for Armadillo serving schooners of beer. Negative points for them costing roughly 5x that of Alice's.
