  1. That's a lot of edges to get your *** worked like that, huh?

     

    More from the wizards. Let 'em know that "this is why they play the games".

    LOL - here's one of the responses from the blog:

    No surprise here Berman was just on sportcenter and picked the bills to "circle the wagons" and beat our dolphins. I'm really getting tired of berman and his circle the wagons b.s. with the bills. Can he be anymore biased. I hope the fins run the bills out of the Joe to shut that fat piece of crap up. GO Fins, 34-10.

    I'm pretty sure Berman said 21-20 too. :lol::)

  2. Being recently out of college I have a profile on there - and also being a fan of threesomes I am a member of that group. Non-members (of the site) may not be able to access the group, but currently there are 392,507 members. The group was started about a week ago I think, and anyone with a profile can join. The dude put up some pics of his girlfriend, she is actually pretty hot.

  3. I miss primetime too. this new two monday night game crap is stupid too. its supposed to be the best game of the week. Chargers raiders???? wtf is that. they really messed it up and im hoping they change it back after everyone says how much this sucks

    Two games only this week. After that there will only be one. ESPN overexposure.

  4. I've lived in Las Vegas, about 2 blocks from being in Henderson, for about 15 months. I like it alot. The area is very suburban, not sure what part of WNY to compare to, but there are shopping centers, home developments, malls, etc. everywhere. I'm from the town of Tonawanda and I guess it's similar, just with more people (I think 300k plus). Henderson has grown sharply over the last few years. Have a friend who just moved here and began teaching for the county, similar to police those jobs are very available because of the population growth. As long as you're not in the "heart" of Henderson (Water st area, a little run down as you'll see if you come through there) you'll be ok. I got used to the weather - I like it alot, no snow to worry about, rarely rains, you can pretty much count on it to be a nice day almost every day. The heat is rough but you get used to it, and there is A/C everywhere. The winters are very mild in comparison, although all the "natives" bundle up when it gets in the 30's and 40's, kind of funny.

     

    And you're close to at least 2 Bills bars. I go to Johnny Macs on Boulder Highway which is close to almost all of Henderson. Pretty good food, Labatts on tap, and plently of screens showing the Bills games. Also I heard Santora's on Sunset is a good spot, also in Henderson. Not sure about the Sabres games as with work I wasn't really able to see most of the games, but I would assume you might be able to catch the games at those places as well.

  5. Funny, I live in Vegas and was thinking about doing the same thing this Sunday. My friend and I went 2 years ago - we split a hotel room, so that got us in without waiting, and instead of paying the $30 cover we split what was I think $80 for the room, and then had a decent place to stay and was a shorter drive to work in the morning (on the Strip).

     

    However, since this is their last summer (Hard Rock Hotel was sold to a boutique hotel comp. based in NY I believe that will revamp the hotel) and the demand is probably huge, it is now $50 to get in, and I've heard the lines are horrendous. We know someone thats worked in the club scene and has gotten "hookups" at other spots, and said there's nothing he can do at Rehab, it's that busy and hard-to-get-into. I thought about getting a room, but when I looked yesterday the only available were I think $300/night. So good luck getting in. We had a blast while there, but theres no way I'm paying that much, PLUS all the food and drink (of course lots of drink).

  6. Just got home, normal day today even though some hotel execs were not in and are off tomorrow as well, gonna go in tomorrow probably around 9-3 then blow stuff up.

     

    I always laugh when I see one of these - probably not a ton of people on here that work in "hospitality" - because I work in a hotel (the world's largest actually) so we never close, and are actually very busy during holidays. I work in an office there but still, if it's a weekday and it's not some guy named Jesus' birthday, I'm working.

  7. I'm 23, grew up in Buffalo, went to college in Rochester, and for a year since graduating have lived in Las Vegas. I have no complaints really. The weather is outstanding almost year round, lots of "things to do", always interesting events/shows/concerts coming to the city, close proximity to Southern California which I think would be amazing to live in if I had money. And I'm working in a job where I would have absolutely no chance to in WNY - finance in a hotel/casino. Sure I could work for the Senecas - hahah yea right. The industry is huge and this is the epicenter for it.

     

    The other main reason I like it here besides my job and potential for growth is the weather. Sure it gets hot, but it's not unbearable, and a/c is always on (its on in my apartment as I'm typing). A quick search shows the 10 day forecast in Buffalo is actually a decent one, but chance of rain for half of those days. 10 day forecast here is highs between 103-107 and sunny. The humidity right now is 10% with a temp of 91. It's rained here once in the last 2 months - mostly during the supposed "rainy" season. And of course during the winter it got to 32 only twice I believe, with snow in the very high elevations - 5,000 ft+. Of course I grew up with the snow and the cold, but it didn't mean that I loved being in cold weather for 6-7 months out of the year. I feel like the summer should be almost over, being used to the shortness of them in WNY, but the summer weather will be here for at least 3 more months, then October comes which the weather last October was spectacular - highs in the 80's, sunny every day. I would just feel depressed alot in Buffalo/Rochester, with it always raining/cold/snowy/cloudy. It's the opposite out here. Sure I work in an office, but I love driving to work wearing sunglasses every morning. No gloomy feelings there.

     

    I absolutely miss some things - family, Bills/Sabres, food. But I have visited a few times for those things. Alone they were not enough of a reason to keep me in the area where I would be making about the same but paying up the ass in taxes -- Nevada state income tax - 0% - thank you tourists! -- with almost zero room for professional growth in my field. Some of my friends have stayed around, but many have left or are soon leaving for jobs. It's not a bad place to live really, but I had zero desire to live there after graduation. I planned my entire time in college to be living somewhere else. And I'm obviously not alone in that.

  8. I just got (well in February) the CIBA day-night lenses. But my eyes aren't good enough to wear them 24-7, so I take them out at night - no big deal to me. They cost me $155 for 12 pairs, wear them monthly, and I got a $70 rebate on them. So only ended up costing me $85 for the entire year. Took some getting used to, but they are better than the ones I used to wear and change every 3 months, and also cheaper. They were recommended by my dr.

  9. Fantastic season from these guys, the best Sabres team I've ever seen.

     

    That is, until next season when they'll ALL come back pissed, healthy and with playoff experience.

     

    AND decked out in blue and gold for added karma.

    Is this confirmed?

     

    I have my Mogilny jersey sitting here, circa 1991, child XL size. It hasn't fit me for at least 10 years or the last 100 or so pounds, could barely get it on the other day. I'd love to see the blue and gold back for good.

  10. Best surprise/twist ending since season 2. I totally saw that Jack planted something on Logan, that's why he didn't get the confession himself, etc. But I thought that he was getting knabbed by the bald head/glasses/bluetooth guy, NOT the Chinese. Very nice twist, and good ending shot w/ the boat sailing off to years of torture - although we all know Jack will somehow be back for season 6 (and 7, and 8).

  11. Good stuff in the 24 recap from this blog, previously mentioned in the thread:

    Jack, who doesn't feel like he's ready to love again after the loss of Tony, agrees to just one date with Robocop. But if it doesn't work out, he doesn't want people bugging him to find someone new. He'll do it in his own time. When will Jack learn that Curtis has been there for him the whole time?

    :blink:
