Yooper Giveaway

[AnOldUR]

I just laughed and snorted coffee out my nose, darn you!

Now we know what the goggles were for. :cross:

How long does this contest run? Before long the lakes will thaw and I won't be able to get good Yooper ice fishing tips, like how to keep your tip-up from freezing, and how to drill a good hole.

 

[WildGingerBrewing]

I would love to win a "Brew with Yoop Day". On your way back to the UP, come through Dallas and we can make it happen!

I'm pretty sure you've kept your tip-up from freezing without help from me.

I thought I had it understood good. Lakes are unthawed now, thawed in the summer when it warms up for 2 months...

Ya see? Here was your blunder. That seems to be a proper use of the word.

No. You see, melting is unthawing... Its easy. Just take what makes sense and reverse it. You are right about the two warm months though.

Now, for your Yooper lesson of the day, I would like you to use "frozen", "thaw" and "unthaw" in a proper UP sentence. Please include as many "eh's" and "fer cripes sake's" as necessary to make it seem authentic.

Now you're talking!

After that you can stop off in Plano

I've seen this guy around. Careful...

Afraid. Be very afraid.

You're in Plano? You need to come to a brew day. I'm in McKinney actually

Yoop, that would be the mistake of a lifetime. Trust me. Ginger looks older than me (but actually younger), has a fake hip and would make you do all of the heavy lifting. He's my friend and knows I'm joking

After that you can stop off in Plano

No, no, no. Think west Yoop.

I've seen this guy around. Careful...

See Yoop. Randar, shecky and AMonkey can all confirm this as well.

You and Bob swing west through Peoria, Arizona and I'll cook you a nice Szechuan dinner (meat/veggies of your choice), brew inside (electric but only if you want to) and show you some ruins out by the lake most visitors miss. Naturally beer will be readily available (I know Bob loves his PA's / IPA's). After breakfast the next morning we'll send you on your way with a thermos of Mocha Java that's to die for.

To sweeten the deal, I can try to get Soper, AZ_IPA, JuanMoore and azscoob over as well. I know, I know, I'm going all out but we could hit the local breweries that evening.

[Hello]

Well, in spite of the creepiness...I'm going to say I'd brew with you.

 

[Zuljin]

You call that sweetening the deal? At least it's not -28 at Ginger's place. And no scorpions. Probably.

 

[WildGingerBrewing]

I would be real careful looking at "ruins" with Whut. They could be old buildings. They could could be old bodies. He's been around so long, the possibilities are endless. Plus, if you go to his house, bed time would be 730. He's old as dirt. And at my house, i can get Zuljin and TxCrash to come over. Wait. Nevermind. Scratch that.

Dammit! That was my idea. I just haven't figured out how to maximize my profits yet.

Yooper has enough 'friends' on the HBT that she only would need to be in Iron River a few months out of the year. She could just drive to the most pleasant weather, stay a while, then move on when the weather turns.

 

[evanmars]

Yoop, you'll undoubtedly be going home up through Wisconsin if you're driving, but you should jog over and go up through the lower peninsula. You could stop and have a few with me at Bell's or Dark Horse. Then there are a few other guys farther up north that'd probably meet up with you.

Ok, eh, but let me do some studying up first. I got me a UP Magazine, from dem guys up at da Porkupine Press! It's chock full of Yooperisms, like on the cover it's got yer basic terminologies. It says Tree Above Zero, and Tree Below Zero, and it's got pictures of a Tree above a Zero, and a Tree below a Zero, for those who can't read so good.

I'm sure on their way back home that they could plan stops the entire way to brew, have dinner, and stay in someone's spare room.
