Be careful with those "libations" you plan to pick up on your way north. The very friendly Wisconsin State Police love nothing more than to stop out of state cars for the slightest infractions. There is an unwritten WI law that says out of staters are not allowed to do the same things WI residents can, such as exceed the speed limit by even the slightest of margins. A perfect example is my brother-in-law, a Minnesota resident, who was recently stopped for going 3 MPH over the limit on his way home from a weekend visit to my mother-in-laws in WI.
Keep your "libations" in the trunk. If they're seen in the car, they will want to check everything including the ashtrays!     

Good advice it appears.  Future daughter in-law behind the wheel.  I will be safely ensconced in the SUV back seat controlling the music and annoying the front seat passengers  LOL

Do NOT, I repeat NOT annoy the young female driver least she becomes so distressed at the prospect of having you as a father-in-law that she reconsiders your son's invitation to join the family. Should that happen, your son might decline to take care of you when you get really old. LOL

Are you speaking from experience, AndOne

[AndOne]

My son became engaged on the evening of Sept 28th to his g/f of 11 years--yes 11!
So far, she hasn't withdrawn her acceptance, so I assume I'm still OK with AndOne junior. 

[AndOne]

OK fans. Here is today's statistical pile of s__t which doesn't mean pOOp.

* NCC beat Albion whose opponents, before NCC, were a combined 50-50 this season.

* UWP beat Concordia WI whose opponents, before UWP, were a combined 38-52 this season.

* NCC"s opponents so far, incl Albion, have a combined record of 52-60

* UWP's opponents so far, incl Concordis WI, have a combined record of 51-61

** The standard response will be---"You're right, none of it means pOOp."

We can't be sure if it took him eleven years to ask, or eleven years for her to say yes. Only that in September the engagement was finalized.

I'm guessing it took her 11 years of training him to not be like AndOne.

Sorry, AndOne, couldn't resist!

[AndOne]

No problem Ypsi.
But, if she had to wait until the training him not to be like me course was complete, it would have been another 9 years!
Actually, neither of them felt the need to "rush" ( ) into anything. Her only wish was to be engaged before she turned 30 so, being a nice guy like his dad, he got down on one knee at her birthday party which took place the night before the magic number came up! Ain't love grand?

Interesting tidbit: about 50% of the UW-Platteville roster is from the Chicago area.

Part of the reason is probably due to the Tri-State Initiative which makes tuition for Illinois and Iowa students more affordable.

Early in the week, I know, but any of my NCC brethren hearing anything about Slezak's status for this weekend's match-up with UW-P? He got his bell rung pretty good (by his own player, none-the-less) on Saturday.
