Can you smell what the WWE is cooking?!

Posted by: Lily on: September 29, 2008

I’m going to see WWE – Monday Night Raw tonight. How weird is that?! We got tickets from Fox Sports, and they’re something like 5 rows up from the ring. OMG! I used to watch The Rock entice the crowds on Friday nights. I’d watch with my high school bf [...]

Weekend Recap – 9/29 – You’ve Got Mail

Posted by: Lily on: September 29, 2008

SWEET weekend.
Friday night: I hosted a porch-sitting, debate-watching, board game-playing party at my St. Paul house.  I think we had about 8 of us.  We sat on the porch for a couple of hours in the early evening, drinking Oktoberfest and other Autumn brews and enjoying the perfect weather.  At 8PM, we moved in side, [...]

BBQs and Uptown Bars

Posted by: Lily on: September 23, 2008

Saturday night, post-bog adventure, it was time to let a little looser. Zack and I met up at Mikey’s downtown apartment before heading out to a nearby ‘burb for a BBQ. My sister and her bf hosted an “End of the Summer” kind of shindig, so my new friends and I showed up [...]

Ok, so I was just talking about the new I-35W bridge opening tomorrow. Here’s a picture. I think it’s beautifully designed.

Target Field – 2010

Posted by: Lily on: September 15, 2008

Target Corporation and the Minnesota Twins today announced their partnership for the new baseball stadium slated to open in 2010. In predictable, Minneapolis-branded fashion, Target is officially the sponsor of the new stadium, donning it – you guessed it! – Target Field.
I have to admit, I was initially a bit disappointed – mostly by [...]

I-35W to Reopen on Thursday

Posted by: Lily on: September 15, 2008

Like any other major tragic event, I remember exactly where I was when the I-35W bridge collapsed in downtown Minneapolis, killing 13, injuring more, and cutting off a MAJOR major artery in Twin Cities traffic for just over a year.
I was still at work (it was just after 6:00 PM) and a friend of [...]

Skol, Vikings!

Posted by: Lily on: September 14, 2008

To be honest, I’m not really sure what “Skol, Vikings” means, but it’s part of the cheers and the songs sung at Minnesota Vikings football games, so I’ll play along.
Fox Sports, as a thank-you for the business we (the agency) have done with them this year on behalf of our clients (particularly one tech service [...]
