BlogThis! - Onionapolis

Today's Star Tribune includes an article about how The Onion will begin publishing a Twin Cities version of its satirical newspaper.

This brings back fond memories of weekly trips to Milwaukee with the likes of Steve Baraboo, Sean Behling and Noelle Theres (at least I think that was her last name). As much as we looked forward to rehearsals for the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee Youth Wind (or Jazz) Ensemble, it was actually The Onion that drew us back, week after week. Steve always got a 20 piece Chicken McNuggets before practice, while Sean preferred to listen to his homemade Richard Pryor stand up tapes. But the ritual on the way home was the same - passenger reading The Onion aloud for all to enjoy...

Thanks to Laura for that link, I was busy reading The Chronicle this morning. It's rather interesting to read articles about the Twins from the opposition's point of view, but somewhat hurty as the Twinks dropped 3 of the last 4 home games to Oakland.

  • I am posting this anonymously because I really don't want to take the three minutes that are required to create a BLOG profile. Today is my first exposure to wht world of blogging and I am discovering that this blog crap is pretty in-depth, who knew that people would be interested in your boring day-to-day activities, isn't that what a diary is for? so you don't have to subject us to this kind of cruelty? Just wondering.
    Miss you both,
    Erin
