Party Like Pirates

Looking at the current FCL baseball standings, it’s that nail biting time of the year when people wonder which team will celebrate by getting a chance at the championship? In the North and the East, the Marlins and Yankees are looking to be two top contenders, but it’s the third spot from the South and the wild card pick that is very much undecided. Currently, the Tigers are tied for wins and percentages with three southern teams: Rays, Red Sox, and Pirates. Mirando la clasificación actual de béisbol de la FCL, es esa época del año en la que la gente se pregunta qué equipo lo celebrará al tener una oportunidad en el campeonato.

Actualmente, los Tigers están empatados por victorias y porcentajes con tres equipos del sur: Rays, Red Sox y Pirates. Thinking I was mistaken on these numbers, I caught up the F...

With pyrotechnics being extremely dangerous work, you have to have as much fun as possible. When setting up pyrotechnics at Trump National in Doral, Florida, we had to deal with golf ball tripping hazards. In order to clear the area where pyrotechnics were to be set up, we created a new game of hammer golf for the kids. Como la pirotecnia es un trabajo extremadamente peligroso, tienes que divertirte tanto como sea posible. Al establecer la pirotecnia en Trump National en Doral, Florida, tuvimos que lidiar con los peligros de tropezar con las pelotas de golf. Con el fin de despejar el área donde se iba a establecer la pirotecnia, creamos un nuevo juego de golf con martillo para los niños. They say that necessity is the mother of invention, and when you don’t have a golf club handy, a hammer is almost like a golf club for a little kid. The parents taught their kid the basics of golf by using a hammer, and that helped clear the way for us to set up the pyrotechniques that day. Watching fa...

IHOP has been kicking it up a notch in Port Charlotte, Florida. Of course, the restaurant is known for some amazing pancakes, waffles, crêpes, and more. What blew my mind most recently was going to eat there and seeing a balloon artist that was making creations for children while they wait to eat. IHOP ha estado subiendo de punto en Port Charlotte, Florida. Por supuesto, el restaurante es conocido por unos increíbles panqueques, gofres, crepes y más.

I’m not sure if all IHOPs do this across the nation, but I think it’s a fabulous idea.

No estoy seguro de si todos los IHOP hacen esto en todo el país, pero creo que es una idea fabulosa. En l...
