I met "Angie" a few years ago. I listened to her speak and bought her book. Tragic story told in a very factual and non-judgemental way by a Polish ghetto survivor. http://www.amazon.com/Angies-Story-Barbara-G-Appelbaum/dp/0971068658

Robert A Heinlein Stranger in a Strange land Isaac Asimov Foundation Trilogy C.S. Lewis That Hideous Strength Ray Brabury Martian Chronicles Something Wicked This Way Comes Kahlil Gibran The Prophet ...for starters

I feel bad for a close friend who has loved the Patriots forever. It was hard enough to suffer through all the 0 for 4 jokes as a Bills fan. It was hard to listen to all the OJ jokes. I can only imagine he must be feeling right about now.

I am not being negative. I am basking in the glow of perpetual mediocrity. (50 year fan here) I am tired of the resounding mantra "We are number two". I want to see someone take charge and just WIN a championship before I die.

So you will have to let us know if you come north and we can go to Nick's for a Garbage Plate. I am from Buffalo but have spent most of my life in Rockchester. Differing opinions should be welcomed, but that is just my opinion

Some could not get through the traffic. Most ended up coming in by helicopter. Sha Na Na was there because they won a contest at a bar (at least that is what I heard). Too many did not make the movie or soundtrack cut - mostly due to record label conflicts. Honorable mention to Richie Havens. He was one of the few there at the start, so they found him a guitar and asked him to play anything to calm the impatient crowd. He played all the songs he knew and then started making songs up - improv. That got us the song "Freedom" John Sebastion forget the words to his own song Canned Heat was audio only inthe movie and soundtrack. CSNY, Suite: Judy Blue Eyes was unreal Jimi and the Star Spangled Banner in the A.M. gives me chills. No, I was a tiny bit too young to have been there.

Objectively, he is a better QB than I am. Like me, he is not a starter in the NFL on a winning team.

Remind me not to p*ss you off.

I hear a song coming around, "Hakuna Retatta!" Proteus, when was the last time a Bills game on Christmas week was worth watching? With this team, you take whatever enjoyment you can get, with no other expectations.

On one play they just called the penalty on the "receiving team". Did they all do something? We were screaming when he did this! He had the first down by just letting his momentum carry him forward instead of sitting down. That was a gutless play.

I am just surprised that it is December and the Bills have a chance (albeit small) to BE in the play offs.

Really. The Bills have to realize that quarterback is not synonymous with band-aid.

You sound like a giant beer snob.

I liked it! Beats another poll on who gets fired next, or should EJ start.

Wow, what a concept!

I love Zooey and M. Ward as She and Him performing "Never Had Nobody Like You" (M. Ward?) and "You Really Got a Hold on Me" by the Miracles

As father of four fantastic adult 'children', I believe this has to be mutual. Everybody wins.

No way to pick one. Here is a vote for Emmylou Harris!

Thurman Thomas, off tackle.

Working 1:30 to midnight and I don't have NFL Network, so I cannot even DVR it. NY tax dollars at work.

I have been saying that since 1966, and it tastes really bad. I am trying to figure out how to be a Bills fan without caring if they win or lose. As it was said earlier, I have seen this game scenario100 times, and I am sick of it. Time to take a step back and think of better things for a few days.

If the band is paid to perform, they should be declaring it as taxable income, right? If they donate their time, they can deduct their band fees and expenses they would have earned for a paying gig. If they can and they want to donate their time, great. If not, it is a free choice. Do not get upset. Every year I walk and collect money for MS. I am SO thankful for donations, but NEVER get upset if someone does not sponsor me.

I really love the optimism expressed here. It is hard for me to have confidence in the team, simply because they have smacked me down too many times. What I will hope for is that the Bills take care of their own business every week, and not rely on someone else to lose. They need to get the train rolling and get in on their on merit. Just my $0.02. GO BILLS! Rock
