  1. George Carlson? Didn't he run WKRP?
  2. Ithink it is still pink! I pass by it to and from work and will check tomorrow. The mansion is still standing. I don't know what is in it now. The Sportsmen's Inn across from the cemetery closed but was immediately opened by Scharf's, which moved from their location in the Schiller Park neighborhood.
  3. Nothing new here. NF has been dumping my sewage plant effluent in the lower Niagara for decades. I remember seeing brown sudsy water near the Maid and f the Mist back in the 80s. Te only difference was it had carbon n iit to make it t black.
  4. In 75 went downtown for a Sheriff's card (Drinking ID for the youngsters) , register to vote and register for the draft. They told me that a few weeks earlier they changed it that you only had to register by the end of the year. A few month later, they said that registration was abolished.
  5. Is it just a coincidence that Tiberius/Gatorbait both have mushroom clouds as their avatar? If you are two different people, then you are both F'd in the head.
  6. Its a big circle. The ultra far right and ultra far left are only inches apart.
  7. Communist sympathizer!!!!
  8. Back in 1961, when I was in Children's Hospital, there was a 3 year old kid that had drank some Drano and burned his esophagus. The kids father never showed up and the mother was a drunk. Probably happened due to neglect ( got this info from my parents telling me this years later). The kid ended up getting the measles while he was in the hospital. The first had him in his crib, but he kept getting out. Then they had to put a net over the crib but he kept ripping it out, so they finally had to lock him in a room so he wouldn't get out and infect other kids. Before the measles he would roam the halls and mooch milk shakes off of the other parents (doctors encouraged this to help remove the scar tissue in his esophagus) . He was so powerful that my dad said he could almost knock him off his feet when he ran up tp hug these other parents.
  9. This partial will be the 4th I will have witnessed in the last 25 years (one in CT and two in CA). With a partial , stand where the light filters down through the trees. Normally, the sun appears as round spots. During the partial eclipse, the sun will appear as crescents. Also, if you have venetian blinds with the cord running through them, the sports where the sun shines through as dots will appear as crescents. I will wait until the total eclipse in 7 years in 2024 and will see it from Cheektowaga.
  10. Flew into Midway once in the evening in the winter. Went "OH MY GOD!" when I saw how small it was from the air and all the streets around it.

  14. More update. The southern part of Chestnut Ridge got hit hard. There are crews from all over cueanng up downed trees in the park, Almost of the roads in the area are clear, There were at least 50 men cleaning up downed and damaged trees in the park this weekend. My brother worked 12 hour days the last 4 days. They will be working their normal areas this week, but can have OT from :3:30 until 9 PM every day this week. They will have to work nextSaturday and Sunday too. He said it will be at least a mont or two for them to get all the debris cleared. Luckily no one was in the park when it hit and only one shelter was damaged.

  16. Update on the cleanup. The debris at the fairgrounds has been cleaned up. The gaming building is not damaged, but there was a lot of damage to the roof of the east grandstands at the track. Lots of trees down in the south part of Chestnut Ridge, The east side (with the casino building) was open on Friday, but the west side (where the Eternal Flame is) is still closed. Lots of trees down in Holland. There are lots of crews working on it. My brother works for the Erie County Highway Dept. and he worked 12 hours Thursday and Friday and will be working Saturday and Sunday. All the towns in the county are loaning chippers etc. to aid in the cleanup. The Feds said there has to be > 28 Mil in damage for FEMA $, but Cuomo has pledged state $. At least no major injuries, just a few cuts and scrapes.
  17. No.The 2007 tornado landed across Walden from Target (near where Chick-Fil_A might go. It then crossed the Thruway, went behind Cabella's and rose off the ground.

  22. If they have the halftime show, make sure you get that too. Boomer Esaison ws on it and the other people were talking about yje Oilers playing the Steelers the next week. He warned them about not counting out Reich and told them about Frank's greatest college comeback when he was in when Boomer was hurt. They laughed at him. After the game they said " We'll never doubt you again."
  23. I know where you can buy some in San Ramon, CA. I was driving to an open space park there once and spotted a ranch with zebras and emus running around.
