  1. Roundy: Holy underwear! Sheriff murdered! Innocent women and children blown to bits! We have to protect our phoney baloney jobs here, gentlemen! We must do something about this immediately! Immediately! Immediately! Harrumph! Harrumph! Harrumph!
  2. The dog was in a kennel/carrter. took like it starved dehydrated to death.
  3. He was the second Space Ghost. The Original Space Ghost was Garry Owens who died in 2015. Garry Owens also did Roger Ramjet's voice and was the "Announcer "on Rowan and Martin's Laugh-In.
  4. I am surprised that the only Meterorology major in the SUNY system is in Albay and not in Buffalo. That was the case in 1980 but I don't know if it is true now i do know that the most desired post in the NE is here.
  5. Is that the death rate for the whole word or just the US. In a lot of hell holes, the general health is low which makes one more susceptible to other infections and complications. In the first half of the 60s (before the vaccine), getting the measles was not something to panic about. You just stayed home and got over it. Like I said I did not hear of a single instance of someone dieing from it and my school district had about 350 kids in my grade. Rubella, of course, was different because it can cause miscarriages in pregnant women (not whatever term the loonies use today). There was a breakout in the early 80s (I think) and I had to got to the doc to get a script for a test to show that I had antibodies against both because I had them before the vaccine came out and the school district only kept health records from the nurses office for 10 years. I has to show that I was vaccinated to register for grad school that year.
  6. And how many people also had the Spanish Influenza which killed between 17-50 million and people from 1918-1920. More soldiers died from the flu than warfare.
  7. It's all the illegals that flooded in during the Bi-done admin. The two that died probably had underlying problems. Measels was no big problem in the 60s. Kids would get it, stay home for several days, watch TV and drink 7-Up (got that when we were sick) and days later would return to school. i'm sure there were extremely rare case where someone would die, but I never heard of someone from school dying from it. This was BEFORE the vaccine was developed. Also caught rubella. Now, just get the vacs and no problem.
  8. Tell me how educational levels from the early 70s compare to today. Carter established the Dept of Ed in the late 70s. Has it done a single thing except make us dumber?
  9. Boy, after breaking her hip, Nan has really gone downhill quickly. Must have stopped getting injections of young boys blood.
  10. Who else is going to get the two people who have been on the ISS since the fall due to Boeing's incompetence? Isn't the "rescue" mission going up in a few weeks.?
  11. I'm all for Trump and Musk but I think in that photo, he sorta looks like Gene Simmons with short hair.
  12. Dems: "Trump killed him!"
  13. The only thing better would have been if he said "In closing..." and out came the Vilage People to the strains of YMCA.😀
  14. Whip their asses with those paddles.
  15. The worst people with carts are at Wegman's on a Saturday. I use the motorized cart if I'm shopping all over the store because of a bad back. When I get to the intersection of aisles, I slowly inch out because I don't know how many times peope have come barreling down the cross aisle oblivious to cross traffic
  16. Empty out the NOAA offices in CA. ship them to places where there's real weather like Buffalo, Tornado Alley and and Florida during hurricane season. 😀The weather in CA is the same all the time. Make one forecast and repeat it weekly
  17. And you have Cuban commie's b*stard son in Canada
  18. My friend worked at the Goddard Space Flight Center in Greenbelt, MD. His first job was superimposing the state lines on the photos from the GOES satellites. He said if he screwed up the US was in the middle of the Atlantic. Think they drew them by hand? He later became the director of the office that told the Hubble where to point and other commands. Almost didn't come back to Buffalo for one Christmas because they would be on call during the Hubble Repair Mission. They postponed it a few weeks. Gave me a heads up about 6 months before they released the "Pillars of Creation " photo. They would get the data and send it to another NASA office to get the color pictures (they were made by combining pictures taken with red, green and blue filters). A lot of the people involved in the collection and processing of the NOAA data aren't even in NOAA.
  19. Vilage People with military costumes.
  20. Zelensky was expecting to meet with a President offering him a pudding cup and a cackling drunk VP. He called the VP a B word in Ukranian under his breath. This admin is the FAFO admin.
  21. David Johansen (New York Dolls/Buster Poindexter) died Thursday at age 75. As Buster Poindexter he was the bandleader on SNL for several years. He also acted. I remember him as one of the ghost] of Christmas Past in Scrooged (the disheveled cabbie one). He had stage 4 brain cancer since 2020 and fell and broke his back in several places in November.
  22. He learned "You can't aways get what you want." Our HS had an enormous front lawn (which is now the middle school). I had the hardass English teacher for study hall in 1st period and for senior elective (Mythology) in 3rd. There was a guy in study hall chewing gum. He told him to throw it out the window by saying "Go feed the snowbirds (seagulls). In 3rd period the same guy was also n my class and was chewing gum again. He said to the guy, " What did you do?, wrestle it back from him?" At the beginning of the year, he was telling us about what mythologies we'd cover. He listed Greek, Roman, Norse, Egyptian,etc and ended with Polish. A girl with a Polish last name started laughing. He said " Hey xxxxxxxxski, what to hear a Poish Myth?- you graduating." Still remember these 50 years later.
