He was the mean prison guard in Adam Sandler's remake of The Longest Yard and played Allison Janey's ex -husband in the wheelchair on the show Mom.

My mother's father came over from Poland around 1910 (he was born in 1888). Not educated, and was a tinsmith at Buffalo Forge. He told us that he came here only knowing a few words of English. Talked to people and read newspapers to learn English. This was before talking movies or radio or ESL classes. Managed to raise a family of 9 kids. Her parents would only speak Polish at home. In the 30's,my mom who was under 10 then, and her sibs made them speak English all the time. Only my grandparents had a Polish accent. When Polish was spoken at family get-togethers, us kids knew the adults were talking gossip.

Fichtner graduated from Maryvale in '74. He grew up in the Nagel Dr- George Urban Blvd. area (behind where Sams Cub now is).

This guy is just a Niners fan. I went to a Bills-Niners game at Candlestick. He roans the stands. He was very nice to us.

I went through this from 2020-2021.My mom had dementia. About 6 months or so before she died, we contacted Hospice. Luckily we lived only a mile fro the campus. They came to the house and evaluated her and decided she qualified. They came to the house every week at first, then more often.My sister and I were in lockstep with each other and what they proscribed. The problem was with my brother who was sure they would kill her in months. They have social workers that will help with such situations and had to calll them about a month before she died when he was yelling at me for starving her even though I had video ion her refusing food. My mom died the way she wanted, at home and in her own bed.

Get Olberman to an MRI stat!

I'll repeat, my 503b is up 13% YTD.

Having a major health scare like a stroke resets your vision. After one you realize that there is no need to get upset about anything. The only thing that matters is your and your family's health and well being. Laying in bed after my 2014 stroke, I was wondering if I would be like that the rest of my life. A calmness came over me. It was reinforced by my Feb 2024 kidney transplant.

The east wing was built in the 40's by FDR.Such a "long" history. If they wanted bigger events than could fit in the State Dining Room (which is pretty small-I saw it on the tour) they would have it in tents outside which would be subject to the wind, weather, and temperature. The grassy area they had it on would turn swampy after rains, Remember DC was real swamps before the Revolution, not named after the vermin that inhabit it now.

That part by JFK's term was a swimming pool. the one where he supposedly swam nude with the young interns. Was filled in. in the basement of the WH was a bowling alley put in by Nixon that is now the press pool offices.

As I said in another thread, my 503b is up 13% YTD.

I'm still alive. Had a stroke in 2014, which I fully recovered from and a kidney transplant February 2024.

Just looked and my 503b is up 13% YTD.

The left- still batting .000.

More pushing the commie's buttons by Trump. Borrowing further into your brains. That is if he can find a brain cell in there.

Coulda fooled me.

Remember it debuted after the Super Bowl (lived on the west coast then). My name is Kevin, my sister is Karen and my brother-in-law, not brother, is Wayne. Kevin Arnold would be my age (I'm 68 now).

I'd make my kid a pork rib BBQ sammwich .

Yes, dems are.

I the 70s or 80s a Dolphin messed up his knee doing dunks over the crossbar with the football during the pregame. I once pulled a neck muscle sneezing from hay fever.

I can have anything (in moderation) except grapefruit or pomegranate. They interfere with the activation of the ant-rejection meds in the liver. So no Squirt soda or Pom juice. I usually have just one beer when I go watch the Bills games at my brother's house. And sensibly I drink zero sugar pop.

I usually have the Max Buffito at Mighty Taco.

From the Babylon Bee: 1. Israel must eliminate 100% of its Jews: This is a dealbreaker for Hamas. 2. New pagers: The last batch had some problems. 3. A new fleet of paragliders: They have assured everyone it's only for recreational purposes. 4. Goats. Lots of goats: They won't say why. 5. Super Bowl tickets: They're apparently huge Bad Bunny fans. 6. 100 virgins each: They will settle for 72, but are setting the bar high for negotiation. 7. Israel must continue to keep Greta Thunberg away from Gaza: The Gazans are terrified she'll eventually reach their shore. 8. Signed 8x10s of Tucker Carlson: Entirely not related to the goats. 9. A nuke: For, like, their power grid or something. 10. The entire land of Israel: All of it. Without all the Israelis. Is that too much to ask?
