Going down for a conjugal visit?

Dodgers · Post by **Dodgers** » Fri Jun 20, 2008 12:55 pm

I'll be in Williamsburg, VA from tonight through the 29th. Will send in lineup instructions.

Guardians · Post by **Guardians** » Wed Jun 25, 2008 7:06 pm

I will be somewhere in the Bible Belt for the next five days and thusly, my internet access will be sporadic because of busyness (and the nature of the belt?). I should be back and running on July 1.

Cardinals · Post by **Cardinals** » Mon Jun 30, 2008 3:14 pm

Will be in Cape Cod July 2 - July 6.

Astros · Post by **Astros** » Mon Jun 30, 2008 3:45 pm

Will be in Alaska July 2nd-8th, digging razor clams, fishin' for halibut and chasin kings on the Kenai River. Oh, and drinkin enough to kill an elephant.

Mets · Post by **Mets** » Mon Jun 30, 2008 4:29 pm

I'll be in St. Louis from 7/1 - 7/4

30 parks in 30 years continues...get ready to cross off New Busch.

Astros · Post by **Astros** » Tue Jul 15, 2008 7:49 pm

I'll be out of town for a golf vacation 7/16 through 7/20. Not taking a laptop so won't have access to internet while gone.

Giants · Post by **Giants** » Thu Jul 17, 2008 11:39 am

I'll be in the great state of Tennessee starting tomorrow, won't get back until the middle of the day Wednesday. May be able to check my email every once in a while so if you need something just holler

Astros · Post by **Astros** » Wed Jul 30, 2008 1:21 pm

I'll be heading up to Alaska for a Silver Salmon fishing trip leaving Thursday mid-day. Won't be back until Sunday night.

Any ongoing discussions after tonight will have to wait until I get back.

Dodgers · Post by **Dodgers** » Thu Jul 31, 2008 5:45 pm

I'll be gone from tomorow morning until Sunday night. Putting draft pick trading into OOPSS now, but if there's any problems they'll likely have to wait until Monday.

Astros · Post by **Astros** » Mon Aug 04, 2008 2:56 pm

I'm back. My liver is officially pickled.

I can be contacted at Schick Shadel's alcohol rehab wing of their NW clinic.

Dodgers · Post by **Dodgers** » Fri Aug 15, 2008 10:33 am

Will be out of town again, this time from this afternoon until Monday night.

Astros · Post by **Astros** » Thu Aug 21, 2008 3:11 pm

Heading down to Portland this afternoon for the Hood to Coast relay race......just another weekend of golf and beer with a little running added in this time for a twist.

Won't be available until Monday night.

I've heard great things about Hood to Coast--one of these years I'll have to get a team together for it

It is a great event. I didn't get back until late last night. Stayed down at Seaside on the coast for a couple days afterwards......but survived the run, despite being in the worst shape of my ten years of doing the event. I ran leg 6 again this year (which gets me leg 6, 18 and 30). Been avoiding leg 5 after running it three years ago. My split times have been getting progressively slower the last three years. I went from running 7:20's on leg 5 (gets you let 5, 17 and 29), the second hardest legs in the relay, to running 7:10's on leg 6 (two year's ago), much easier legs than leg 5, to 8:15's this year. Getting old sucks, but beer just seems to be tasting better and better.

I even managed to get in a couple solid rounds of golf and drank plenty of beverages to make sure I was re-hydrated with high carb, barley and hops liquids.

The team I run on is more focused on the drinking and having a good time with a little running mixed in, rather than taking the event too seriously. I think Nike's team won the event this year, but I didn't hear their splits. The winning team is usually running about a 5:20 ish split for the entire 197.0 miles. Crazy shit.

Anyways, good times.

I'll get a roster update in when I get home tonight, as I'm pretty sure I have a DL or two guy that needs action.

Twins · Post by **Twins** » Thu Aug 28, 2008 11:03 am

I will be out of town camping starting this afternoon until Sunday. Depending on the site, I might have some e-mail and internet access on my phone, so I'll still be available for trade deadline discussions, but will have no access to DMB during this time.

E-mail will be the best way to get a hold of me.

Astros · Post by **Astros** » Fri Aug 29, 2008 4:21 pm

Heading out of town again tomorrow morning. Won't be back until Monday, after the trading deadline so if you want to hit me up for a deal it will have to be this afternoon or late tonight after I attend a useless final preseason game of the Hawks and Raiders where the starters won't play more than a series.

Bringing back some old AFC West days other than the Raiders suck now and the Hawks are good.

Padres · Post by **Padres** » Sat Aug 30, 2008 10:38 am

Last night was an awful night for Pale Hose fans. Today will be better.

I may check in once or twice more this weekend ... depends on how much we drink and how the Pale Hose fare.

I'll be back on Yawkey Way around 5:00 wearing the Black & White!

BlueJays · Post by **BlueJays** » Tue Sep 02, 2008 11:49 am

I will be leaving town tonight and won't be back until the weekend most likely. Going to bum fucked Nebraska to celebrate the life and mourn the passing of my late father in law, who succumbed to lung cancer over the weekend. Since I will be in the middle of absolutely nowhere, I will have extremely limited connectivity.

Giants · Post by **Giants** » Thu Sep 11, 2008 11:45 pm

I'll be at Ohio State for the weekend, watching them hopefully beat the pussy USC team that plays in a weak conference, and hopefully not getting the shit beat out of me for mentioning how great the SEC is. I might be on my buddy's computer once in a while, but if you have anything to discuss with me, I'll be back late Sunday

Giants · Post by **Giants** » Tue Sep 16, 2008 1:16 pm

Hurricane Ike came through here Sunday, so we probably won't have power at my house for a couple more days at least. I'm stealing my friends laptop for a few minutes. I'll explain what experiencing a hurricane in Indiana, Kentucky and Ohio is like when I get lights at home

Giants · Post by **Giants** » Fri Sep 19, 2008 4:01 pm

On Day 6 without power, called the power company and they told me that my town had lights, even though we've yet to see a power truck, so I'm bumming the internet at my buddy's for a few minutes. Looking like Sunday at the earliest for me to have power now, and they say it could be Monday. I'm pissed

Mets · Post by **Mets** » Thu Oct 23, 2008 2:44 pm

SI, NY till Tuesday.

Dodgers · Post by **Dodgers** » Sun Nov 16, 2008 7:55 am

I'll be out of town until next Tuesday, should be popping in and out until then. Draft page will be ready to go Dec 1.

Astros · Post by **Astros** » Wed Nov 19, 2008 2:12 pm

I'll be leaving for warmer climates (Phoenix) on Friday night and won't be returning to Seattle until December 1st. I'll have some access to the league/internet, but it won't be a priority over the next ten days, so if anyone is interested in talking trades before then, give me a shout.

Enjoy your turkey day,

IBC
