  1. FYI -- the bolt I was talking about was connecting the toilet tank to the toilet bowl.  There's three bolts holding them together, and water was definately coming out of the back bolt because it was loose.  That's not to say that there aren't other problems though...

    If the leak is from the reservoir to the bowl, turn off the water, drain the reservoir and remove it. Clean the porcelain where the bolts mount. Probably just some new screws, washers and/or perhaps a gasket will fix that leak.

  2. At the last game, only those of us in the driveway were able to be in line. Though Kenny and I are wondering when that'll change so that not even that will be allowed ;)

    So, since they are not opening the gates, and you cannot form a line, where are you supposed to hang until they do? Stupid NFL rule!! :P

  3. A few of my friends from jetsinsider.com are going.  Please be nice to them.

    As far as I am concerned, if everyone liked the same team football would be boring.

     

    That said, I hope ALL fans that go to a game remember it is a game and act accordingly. Friendly razzing is fun! Fighting is for maroons.

  4. With all due respect Tom.  It is all in the eyes of the beholder.  I try not to take things personally.

     

    People usually lash out when emotional.  They take their fustrations out with ridicule.  Some people do it more elequently than others.

     

    I take it all at face value and attempt to see the underside of it.

    I did not take being dismissed personally. I was happy about that. :D

     

    I did not like his mannerisms - talking to a group of people who were not stupid, as if they were. I am hard working, educated, open-minded and was treated like a moron. That was my reward for NOT coming up with an easy way to excuse myself from doing my duty in a democracy?

     

    THAT I took personally.

     

    I hold myself to a higher standard than I hold others.

  5. "I did not feel this bad when I lost my own election," says former Democratic state Sen. Rick Dollinger. "I'm asking myself how it is that I seem so divorced in my thinking from the average American."

    A few weeks back Dollinger was the defense lawyer in a case at the Hall of Justice, when I was dismissed from consideration as a juror. (Thenk Kew!)

     

    He spoke down to the jury box like he was speaking to 5 years olds, and he was a sage. Freaking Mr. Rogers goes to court! Can you say "pissant"?

     

    He came across as a condescending elitist POS.

     

    If he is the measure we use, I am happy to be "the average American" by his definition.

  6. Grand Island.  North of the snow belt and good schools.

    I hear prices are good in an area called the Love Canal. :D

     

    Don't you have to pay a toll everytime you cross the bridge onto the island?

     

    I might suggest an urban 6 month lease so you can check out various areas before commiting to a house.

  7. I'm married.  Looking is all that's left!

    I have tried to explain this to Mrs. Rock. What are you expected to do when you are walking together and your brain sends you this message: "cleavage alert, half a block on left, tall brunette with yellow blouse".

     

    The trick is discreet gawking! :D

  8. We have over 60 Bills fans from NYC making the trip to Ralph Wilson Stadium this weekend.

     

    Most of us will be tailgating at Kenny's Pinto before the game, so if anybody wants to punch Billsfanone in the face, its the perfect time to do it!

    I would like to meet you all. I will be there.

     

    Billsfanone was a gentleman to babyrock, so I will not be in that line. :unsure:

     

    See you Sunday!!

  9. Shame on you Cincy. Confusing me with the Brits.  <_< 

     

    In Oz it's Vegemite and made by Kraft Foods.  That's Australia's secret to good health. :)

    Buying bread from a man in Brussels

    He was six foot four and full of muscles

    I said, "Do you speak-a my language?"

    He just smiled and gave me a vegemite sandwich

    And he said,

     

    "I come from a land down under

    Where beer does flow and men chunder

    Can't you hear, can't you hear the thunder?

    You better run, you better take cover."

    Gotta go back to work now, before I chunder :devil:

  10. Are Hot Pockets really any good (no, I mean really)?  My wife is going out tonight and after the kiddies are put to bed, I'm wondering if I should have a PPP inspired dinner.

     

    Given my skills in the kitchen, please keep in mind I have many other choices such as Spaghetti-O's, soup, 4 different varieties of cereal, and Ice Cream.

    In a bind for a gourmet meal? Two words: Dinty Moore :P

     

    Actually I am a very good cook, when I am left alone in the kitchen that is...
