I had the day off from work, and one thing I told myself I needed to do was check on my coat at the cleaners. It has been there for a while, but as a winter coat I didn't mind as it was out of season. I called in advance, just before midday, and the owner said it was ready. When I arrived she was not there, the sign was up saying 'Back in 2 shakes of a lambs tail'. I got some photos while waiting, and an episode of 'That 70's Show' was on. This is my Iowa Hawkeye coat, and this is why the owner calls me 'Iowa'. I had seen it earlier, after it was dry cleaned, it looked like a tye-dye shirt but I didn't mind. She also did some sewing on it, as it was ripped especially around the zipper. Some of the sewing was done right in front of me as I noticed one hole was not completely closed. I also gave her a postcard I found at Cheapo Records, it was a Laundromat scene with a man in a cowboy hat next to the dryers. She was arguing with an employee on the phone when I was there.
After this I went to a Little Caesar's and got a large pepperoni pizza, so more airline miles. Then it was on to Midway Stadium as I wanted more photos there. There was a crew setting up for The Replacements concert scheduled for the next day, already saw the stage up, in the outfield near the scoreboard. I mostly got my pictures outside the stadium, especially of the murals. But I also got one inside as there was an open gate. This was how I got one of the stage. I even climbed the steps to some seating just beyond an outfield fence. I figured it was fine as long as no one said anything, and nobody did. I saw a few people there, but they seemed too preoccupied with their work to care about me taking some pictures.
I chose this as a day off so it was easier to attend the homecoming football game at Roosevelt High School in Minneapolis, and the game started at 5pm. I did walk around the neighborhood a little before the game, after stepping off the light rail. Found a comic book shop, but it was closed and not sure when it would be open again, some mention of a recorded message to find out. Another thing was a model railroad museum. Roosevelt won their game, 42-8 over crosstown rival Edison. So it was the Teddies playing the Tommies. Roosevelt led at the half, 21-0, after the first quarter ended in a scoreless tie. Roosevelt was helped by a fumble, as well as some bad snaps on punts, to get good field position which led to the first-half TDs. Edison finally scored near the end of the game. Edison was flagged for two unsportsmanlike conduct penalties, I always say this kind of penalty doesn't have to happen. Cooler heads should prevail. After a short time home, just over an hour, I was out again, this time the comedy club.
At the comedy show, the sub teacher did ones about spaghetti and gas station pizza. Others were about the missionary position, and mom comparisons in his relationship. Worthington did one about taking a bus to Dallas. It would be like if the South fought itself, and his dad taking him off of speaker phone. Perkins did one about a family cruise, and trench foot. Others were about his mom's eye surgery, 'porn hub and Dahmer', and his dad who sweats after showers. Mr. Pibb did one about a book that led to a cop tied up in the trunk. Others were about clowns and commitment, Legos, and elephant condoms. Tortoise and Hare did one about the cemetery as a hoarder. Others were about shark week, and shopping at the same Gap. International Falls did one about looking somebody's friend's mom, by a street harasser. Others were about 'upset about ignorance', dream catchers, dog rescue and a police dog poem, and ripping out an IUD. Oklahoma did one about liking to leave 30 minutes earlier. Others were about local politics, waiting tables/tartar sauce, and cigarette lighters. Mason City did one about somebody passing gas in an elevator. Others were about Facebook likes, like a family reunion, and a bread raper. IED/IUD did ones about Jane Goodall, as well as sweatpants and crocs. I got a shout-out. Fantasia did ones about 'do they just want Taco John's', and how the Illuminati get pushed around on Youtube. Grizzly Adams did one about a bird feeder. Others were about a high school wrestler, walking his cats, college commercials, and a bald drug. Ragu did one about Comcast. Red-faced comic did one about 12/13 CDs. Others were about a pizza place, and a desert island. The bartender did ones about North Minneapolis, 'taco-cat', and an animal shelter.
