If the key to development is a new stadium, how come there is virtually nothing out at the RWS? ECC, a couple bars, and a convenience store across the street. WHOPEE!!!!

Ummm, Texas was part of the Confederacy...

Their senators were Louis T. Wigfall and Williamson S. Oldham

Unless that site (and others like it) lies...?
I guess I'm wrong. Was the war ever fought there? I didn't think so which is why I thought they weren't at least, dedicated, Confederates

The Aero is a nice bike. I liked better the ACE model from a few years ago, the fender treatment looked better. The current fenders cover too much wheel & tire for me. Forget the Spirit and its chopper look, FAT is in.
Think about the Suzuki C50, the old Volusia. Better value maybe. The Suzook 800 has always had a lot of power. 4 valves/cyl and fuel injection. The bike has full floorboards/heel & toe shifter. Check it out C50

Money. You can buy cars, boats, hell, even planes. It can make ugly men get laid by the hottest chicks ever. It can buy you the ability to behead your wife and a waiter and get off scott free. And apparently, it can buy you the cure for AIDS. Just imagine if no one had ever handed him a basketball. He would have died from this disease years and years ago.
I remember a story with Magic about Wilt bedding 10,000 women, and he said he estimated he did 5,000. So why to we sympathize with Magic when he could have potentially killed 5,000 women. That makes him WORSE than OJ

The owners of my company have decided to share the profits with everyone here. They pulled up in new cars today, I'm having pizza WITH wings tonight. Was that equitable???

check out the video on the right side of the page if you wish...
I had to watch my father in law suffer and rot away from cancer for 4 years. I watched that great human go from 180 pounds to just around 65 pounds before he passed on. I prayed everyday for God to take that man to a better place!
I also posted on another thread here, my dad went into a diabetic coma for 4+ months, went from about 190 to about 100# before he died. What a joke. Dying pets and death row convicts are dealt with much more humanely.
Bush is a frickin' joke too. Him and "culture of life" and he is going to keep all these veggies alive forever. His medical programs can't be financed as it is. Join the real world, and oh yeah, how many 1,000's died in HIS war?

OK, regardless of your feelings on this whole case, here is what I don't understand. Why pull her tube and have her pass a way in 1-2 weeks? I know we don't have laws/practices that support this, but why can't she just be injected with whatever and pass away immediately? Lets face it, if your dog is dying, you can take it to the vet and have it put under within a minute, no pain or suffering. We actually handle the final days of life better with our pets than with people. Heck, mass murderers are shown more compassion in death, a process lasting seconds.
The best example I saw of this was my father. Near the end he slipped into a diabetic coma, he "lived" for 5 months in this coma, lost about 100# and was 95# when he died. What a joke!!! Why did he have to go through this? In my opinion the medical profession failed misserably. Hell, I failed him. Don't tell me he got 5 more months of life. Nobody should have to go through what he went through. It would have been much better handled had he been able to be put out of his misery, mercifully, quickly, and go that way.

I got to tell you this guy is right about Anderson's. Last time I went there, the quality of the food was disgusting, in part because it seemed the only people in there running it were all kids. The beef was just about raw. No direction for them in how to PROPERLY prepare food. I'd never go back or recommend it.
Schwabl's is OK, the food quality can be inconsistent. I like the atmosphere, it's like a time warp back 40-50 years ago. I'd recommend Ernie Weber's on South Park in Blasdell. Great food. Just a few blocks away from Fran-Ceil's custard........................now there's another topic!!!

I'm just a fool for the city........great song.........RIP

I used a specific charter in the 1,000 islands, guy was pretty good. Any ways, he tells me last summer he is quitting his charter business. Sponsored by a major tackle mfg'er, he was going to fish the Gulf of Mexico full time. Where the hell was I when they handed out that job??????????????

Finally get to use some of my friggin leave! I got to use 30 days of leave before sept or ill lose it! (we are only aloud to have 60 on the books)
My dad use to take me Salmon fishing off Erie to a place call Berts Dam or its Barts Dam.
Do anyone know where it is or where I can do some good trout fishing this year besides Pennsylvania.
You're talking 18 mile creek in Niagara county, near the village of Burt. Never been there, but it is a hot spot. NYS does a lot of stocking especially in Cattaraugus and Chautauga counties. Steelhead runs off the lake too. Of course a lot of that is seasonal. Try a charter on Lake Erie. In the summer, the breakwall under the Peace bridge, and also the north end of Squaw Island at the locks. Shore fishing is tough around Buffalo in my opinion. Be sure to have a license too. DEC is really checking a lot

You must be an !@#$!!! How many adults do you know that have sex with 15 yr olds? What are we supposed to respect that? "Oh, it's OK, he gained over 1,000 yards" Is that your logic?
Nice user name.............didn't Biscuit get prison time for a sex assault? You better get a better grip about who & what you respect

Fixer-upper.............especially if your wife, like mine, would want to change the house to their style and taste. You're going to be working on it either way, so you may as well take the cheaper deal

When there's in imbalance of incoming and outgoing tax revenues there's bound to be a real problem. The idiots running WNY have been sticking their heads in the sand for 30+ years.
In WNY, the vast majority of people fall into these main categories:
1. Those who receive their paychecks from government (educators, municipal, law enforcement, parks, DOT, etc)
2. Low wage earners (under $10/hour)
3. Sustained though goverment subsidized entitlement programs (welfare, SSI, food stamps, etc)
4. retirees (often living off savings and SS and many contributing to the economies of Florida or Arizona for half the year)
There are, of course, business owners, utility workers, professionals, and others, but there's a huge imbalance in comparison to the group mentioned above.
A healthy economic environment has a much stronger middle class that includes manufacturing, multiple services, retail, and other industries.
The Buffalo area has no Fortune 500 companies or other large corporations with headquarters based in WNY that can bring money in from around the country.
Buffalo is one of the few metro areas that has the worst of both worlds - high taxes and low wages. A deadly combination if ever there was one.
A huge number of young people entering the work force leave WNY when they hear of the opportunity and wages that can found if they leave for Flroida, Georgia, Carolinas, etc.
Do the math. Who's gonna be left to pay the freight?
Just keep going with high taxes and increased union demands. Been working great.
Great post DML. What are loking at next year for a property tax increase? I'm hearing 40%. And the civil service and teacher unions don't get it yet. They are still looking to bleed the area to get whatever they can. No view of the future, just get my $$$ now. Some local teachers are having "informational pickets" right now. Their signs say "I'm under paid and deserve more" BS!!!!! Phil Rumore of the Buffalo Teachers is the worst thing to happen to this area. The guy gives nothing for education quality, just pay me more. Of course if I was a teacher I would probably love the guy.

I get that eBay "suspension" email every day. Geez back off already with that. What am I going to get that every day for the rest of my life? At the very least, they could do a more professional presentation, what with broken English, bad grammar, mis-spellings, etc.......
Another one I've gotten 2-3 times. The winning bidder I'm told backs out, and as a losing bidder I'm obligated to be the winner at my last bid amount. So if I will just forward that amount via Western Union to them................yeah right!!!!!!!!!

I got 78, means 30 years to go.
Lately I quickly scan the daily paper's obit's. There are a lot of people who kick off "unexpectedly" (the term they always use) who are in their 30's, 40's and 50's. Makes you think, live for today, screw the 401K. I mean really, what are you going to be doing in your 80's any ways
