  1. Dont know if it's because I'm older than almost every player in the league with the exception of an odd kicker. But after 12 years of garbage, spending too much cash, and seeing a greedier nfl product (ie Thursday night football). Gave up fantasy football this year, don't miss it at all. Tell the truth I barely miss sitting in a bar watching this team lose week after week. So my question is, are you watching more, less or about the same. I think it would be different if lived in buffalo, im just outside nyc

  2. I have done two cruises with my daughter and wife. The first when she was probably four, it was a new boat I think holland America eurodam. It was a cruise to no where left from NYC was at sea for three nights. Me and my daughter had a great time. She had asked from that time when we would go back

     

    This year when my dauhter was eight we did a Baltic sea cruise- we have to go to eyrope every year because we have family to visit- so the cruise left stockholm, helsinki, st Petersburg, Riga, gdansk. My daughter says it was her favorite vacation ever. Entertainment and food was great, a lot of international passengers, they had a kids club, climbing wall. We all definitely would do it again. We left the cruise in Poland, to visit family. This was the right age for a real cruise, glad we did not do this type of $ earlier.

     

    I wouldn't do any location -Disney, skiing or cruising greater than five days. But that's just our preference

  3. world famous tiki bar. And the islamora fish company- great food. Next to a sportsmans store with a gigantic sea water aquarium of native fish

     

    We went to the fish company last night. My family had a great time. They had a fire juggler there. Music was chill. They were feeding tarpon and other huge fish outside.

     

    To be honest, I'm not a fisherman, but that sportsman store was awesome, the aquarium really cool. Made me feel like I'm missing out on something good. I may have to learn that sport!!

  4. Hello,

     

    Down in the Keys- Islamorada, Cheeca Lodge with Wife and 8 year old Daughter. Wondering if anyone has any good suggestions? Restaurants, snorkelling, dolfins etc?

     

    Thanks,

    Paul

     

    Also, saw Dan Marino in Fort Lauderdale yesterday, he was friendly just said hello and how are you and kept walking on. Was with a lot of family.

  5. I dont care for movies too much, unless it is good. And this was great! Really, the story, the sets, the acting. I thought it would be more of a kids story, I brought my 8 year old daughter, but it is just fantastic. Think Amelie, visually, with 3D that finally works. Sasha Cohen (BORAT) was good too. Wondering if anyone else saw it and there thoughts? Try to see it in the theatre if you can- wont regret it

     

    As a point of refernece, I hated the last two Woody Allen flicks, esp that "midnight in paris"

  6. I am torn on this as well. I cant stand the Pats-- rooted hard for the Giants to end their perfect season-- now the Giants are my second favorite team. The Jets-- I have rooted for after the bills season is over (cause im in this area, and come week 7- Im thinking about draft picks. I agree the goal for every team should be to win the super bowl. But the Jets swagger and bravado without winning a regular season game is horrible. Glad the Ravens won big time in the new Giants stadium. I want a tie.

  7. if the moth has a show-- definately a cool NY experience. check out themoth.org. they are pretty cheap too. A

     

    lso, you may want to try Carolines in the city for a cheap commedy show if possible. I went 2 weeks ago, my friend was performing a new talent night-- it was like $5, show started at 6:30 or 7. they had like 10 people perform. Some kicked a@@ others bombed, but it was cool

  8. Cue the crickets hopefully......

     

    My best friend is a Jets fan. I obvoiusly am a Bills fan. We've made the Jets-Bills game in Buffalo 17 years in a row, since we've been 20 yrs old. We aren't going this year. It'll be a could day in hell before I personally help that game sellout.

     

    True story.

     

     

    I'm going. Ive gone 8 of the last 9 years to the jet Buffalo game in Buffalo. My friends (somey Jet fans) love going to Buffalo, the excitement, Christmas day atmosphere. They want to go to Toronto-- have to obligue, want to keep the tradition going. They are looking forward to seeing another city. Hey why not? Anyone got good recommendations on what to see or do. We are going up Thursday and coming back Sunday.

  9. Looks Ok. I would prefer Sendak-like animation instead. Definately looks a lot more developed than the book-- which I guess is necessary to make a full length film (but if thats the case--why not give it a different name)? The original story Im not sure needs to be corrupted like they have done to so many great Dr. Seuss stories (starring Jim Carey). I think I'll try to introduce my daughter to the original story (that will remain a classic forever).

  10. I like Itunes most of all for the ease of subscription of the podcasts.

     

    My favorites-- This American Life. Marketplace (APR), the Moth. Science Times (by the NY Times). Wondering if anyone has any good ones to share?

     

    thanks,

    Paul
