My youngest daughter works at a classy salon. She gets paid by the hour, and it is not a lot - like a waitress or bartender as an example. Tips make a BIG difference to her. My daughter has to buy all her own tools (and good ones are very expensive). She provides a shampoo, cut, and/or color; since she works the Man's Shoppe side, she also provides straight razor shaves (hot and cold towels). She also serves complementary drinks, from coffee to scotch! When I needed a barber I tipped him. Heck, the cook and bartender do all the work and the waitress just brings food and drink to you, why tip HER? LOL! Just a perspective.

Truth!

The score was VERY misleading. Had it not been for the a gazillion commercials and a LONG wretched halftime show it would have been a GREAT game. I loved the Who (used to have 22 LPs by them), but those two guys last night are a pale shadow of what was. The Who included a fantastic bassist and lightning fast drummer. I have a theory that CBS could not sell commercials, so they added a TON of their own. The announcers stunk. That is a polite description. It was a very good game, unfortunately framed in mediocrity. But consider: the on side kick to open the second half Manning with plenty of time to engineer one of his trademark Q4 comebacks a team that was the "Aints" hanging on their fans must have been chewing their fingers off (I could identify with them) an INT return to cement the win the game Those are a very few of the good things about the game and I enjoyed it. I can only hope Buffalo wins a championship before I die or the team moves.

They toured later with Bonham's son on drums. I agree the Who were not the same after Moon died. Then when Entwhistle died, it truly was the end. Daltrey and Townsend might be interesting in a small venue "unplugged" but they are not a power rock band anymore. I love the Who but tonight was kind of sad.

Yup! You also want the ground frozen so you do not sink into soft sod or mud.

...says member #9 to member #156 old fart!

The secret is to pay no attention to the bad attitudes. Since my name is really the same as the Saints owner's name, it would be cool to see 'Tom Benson' hoisting the Lombardi! Just showed the Who talking about the half-time show - I cannot wait. I have been a Who fan almost as long as I have been a Bills fan. I could have been spared Shannon Sharpe singing Love Reign O'er Me though!

belinda Who you calling old, Jack!

Saban DID quit on him - two times. The first time was one week after winning his second AFL championship in 1965. The 1966 Bills were 9-4 without Saban, but got killed in the AFL championship game. The second time was after starting the 1976 season 2-3, leaving the Bills to finish 2-12 with Jim Ringo. Saban is a member of the Greater Buffalo Sports HOF. I do not believe Saban is NFL HOF material but I believe an argument can be made for his induction to the Bills Wall of Fame. I am not a big Ralph Wilson fan, but without knowing Wilson personally, how can you possibly believe that he got satisfaction from outliving Saban?? Cookie certainly was a difficult man to deal with. He was the first RB to exceed 1,000 yards in a 14 game season, but was only a Bill for three seasons. I admire him for boycotting the 1965 AFL All-Star game during the Civil Rights movement, ironically because of poor treatment of black athletes in New Orleans. All Star Boycott Again I would agree he probably deserves a place on the WOF, but probably not the HOF. Just my opinions.

I would wonder how the hell I got invited to the party! I have met both intelligent people and morons who are Mensa members.

We have just enough snow and it is cold enough that the ground is frozen. Me and Mrs. Rockpile are going to a park to do some snowshoeing tomorrow morning!

I second that. Happy Trails, John.

That thing is about the size of a bowling ball. Hmmmmmm. Yo, Kenny! Warm up the Pinto!

Who is Michael Vick?

Everyone has a take on this issue, and all are entitled to their opinion, but I am personally fine with OT as it stands. I hate the college rules.

Buy season tickets and Stub Hub them. Don't lay it all on WNY!

Gee, according to some, only people in Buffalo lack discretionary income.

I was wondering if anyone read Ellison besides me. *-)

May you get your wish! Yes, winter is too long, but if I HATED winter all the time I would move.

Dig. Cos I got my own world to live for and I ain't gonna copy you.

I don't mind.

The plates were definitely above average today.

Charlies has NO ambiance. Plates are average. Friday fish fry is pretty good though! P.S. I kept up the tradition R.R. !

A LOT of us love sledding, skiing, ice skating, or snow shoeing (the last being my favorite). After a fresh snowfall, there is nothing like the dampered silence of snow blanketing everything. But I would be a liar if I did not say I also love sitting by a warm fire after enjoying the cold air outside! February would be a great month to live in Puerto Vallarta.
