I like Morse Code Shiraz.

This person should work for Hallmark Greeting cards! My wine often comes in a box. LOL

Thanks for the kind words. Mrs Rock is still working two jobs, but now it is "by choice"! My children are grown and they are really good people. I have much to be thankful for!

That was the OTHER 50% of the 3%. I raised four kids. There were times when a day off meant only going to one job.

7. 70% of wealthy parents make their children volunteer 10 hours or more a month vs. 3% of poor. Yeah, and 50% of that 3% are driving their 'children' to after school and weekend part-time jobs!

i went through this with my father and the results were not good. I am so happy for you and your family, especially in this holiday season. Also, it is 'exception', not 'acception'.

I know, I am glad that would never happen here!

"Per the report, Jim Clark returned from a trip to the men’s room to find his brother, Dan, surrounded by stadium workers “in a pool of blood” at the bottom of the stairs in Section 521, the location of their seats." Since I have MS, I find long steep staircases 'challenging'. I pace myself, so I am not alcohol impaired, and try to stay out of the crush of crowds at half-time, end of quarters, etc. That has worked for decades!

NOHO?

nice one john!

It is ok to be Hammer (but not hammered) and run a parking lot. New York employers can fire at will without cause. update - non-union employees, as you pointed out

I would be giddy if you expressed yourself in complete sentences. Why can't some "fans" just enjoy a victory? On one series, the Bills drive was over 80 yards in two plays, and only took 27 seconds off the clock. Why don't we give our defense a chance to catch their breath? We are so stoopid it crives me drazy!

Ain't in it for My Health: A Film About Levon Helm Not a new release, but new to me. I am going to see this at the Eastman House Dryden Theater in Rochester tomorrow night. It is a documentary with Levon Helm, from the Band, after the release of "Dirt Farmer", his first CD after his troubles with throat cancer. http://dryden.eastma...out-levon-helm/ http://www.levonhelmfilm.com/ BTW: Dirt Farmer CD got a Grammy in the Americana category, so he followed it up with Electric Dirt Farmer, LOL.

I took three.

Could be interesting to watch... I never thought Fitz was a franchise, but he was always a fighter. "Tennessee Titans quarterback Ryan Fitzpatrick has said that he is prepared for the challenge of becoming the team's starting option. Fitzpatrick will lead the Titans offense for the remainder of the campaign following an injury to first-choice Jake Locker." http://www.sportsmole.co.uk/american-football/tennessee-titans/news/fitzpatrick-ready-to-lead-titans-offense_117859.html Moderators, please fix topic! Sheesh

I think I will be saying that to my grandsons sometimes!

My father was one of the original founders of the Buffalo Bills Boosters Club, Inc. In my avatar I am wearing his 1961-62 Boosters coat, with the Buffalo Bill Cody logo. I met Tom Day when I was eleven and shook his hand. I grew up with the AFL. As others have said "it is in my blood". Yesterday I felt cursed. \ I will get over it.

The "news" has become so ridiculous, I rely on Stewart and Colbert to keep me informed.

Correction: Jerry Glanville http://www.nfl.com/videos/nfl-videos/09000d5d8213b6cb/Pick-Six-Glanville-NFL-means-Not-For-Long beat me to it - I was already correcting myself!

Hank Stram!

One thing is certain. You can agree or disagree with Bill from NYC, but his "random thoughts" generate a LOT of fan reaction and discussion on a wide variety of topics here. Thanks for that, Bill!

I have Taj Mahal CD's going back to the early 70's (when they came out) LOL. I used to sing "Fishin Blues" to each of my kids, and now to my youngest grandchild, to rock them to sleep. Have seen him live about 4 or 5 times at free outdoor shows. You are in for The Real Thing! Favorite song title is "You Ain't No Streetwalker Mama Honey but You Sure Know How to Strut Your Stuff". He did get a Grammy for 'Senor Blues'

We have two urinals and four crappers (two are for handicapped) with about 100 men. It is a call center so we are always fighting a clock. Sometimes the only choice is the crapper. I understand what you say and have asked for more urinals or a trough like the Ralph.

Happy Birthday! Best wishes for a long healthy life blessed by Stromboli and a Bills Super Bowl victory !
