    I have 3 big oak trees in my backyard that sheds large branches a lot.  I thought a cheap little Craftsman chainsaw would be at least strong enough to go through a tree branch as thick as a baseball bat.  Nope, it doesn't cut it at all.  Like the chain won't power through a branch so it really has no use unless I'm cutting cardboard.  I wasted like $80.

     

    But also what I have learned is time.  Spend more for a machine/equipment/device that will do it right and faster.

     

     

    FWIW... The Dewalt cordless chainsaw really cuts well. I was skeptical but the 60vMax keeps up with medium duty fuel powered performance machines... No blasted fuel/mix small engine maintenance... Storage is a breeze. I am charging my phone with one of the batteries right now as I type this.

    Im not saying it only happens in Buffalo, but there are lots of stadiums where guys don’t perform that behavior.  I’ve been to the Jax stadium many times and Miami even more, and never witnessed it.  I don’t care, and laugh when I see the guys, but it’s also kind of gross as I normally wash my hands always after and can’t do that in Buffalo with people peeing in the sinks.


    Anyway, I’m happy Steel is coming up, and can’t wait for my first game in the new stadium.  I fully expect the tix are going to be a lot more expensive and am prepared for it.  I still will take my kids up for whatever Sunday game in September is at 1pm.  It’s too hard to make a night game.  Not when I fly back Monday morning as most of the time the only nonstop on SWas that is the only airline that has one nonstop to Tampa.

    Opposite on NorthSide. The troughs are the sinks.

  3. Somewhere out on that horizon
    Out beyond the neon lights
    I know there must be somethin' better
    But there's nowhere else in sight
    It's survival in the city
    When you live from day to day
    City streets don't have much pity
    When you're down, that's where you'll stay...

    this teacher reads to me like an oversexed teenager herself.  The brain in her head was not what was dictating decisions. Excuse my french but it was the brains in her vajayjay. Aka in zero control of her hormones and moral compass OFF

     

    Life in prison? How much age difference are we talking. I just checked. approx 16 years older.  In some cultures a vast age difference is not unusual?

     

    All Im saying bottom line is she reads to me as a predator. Do the damages to this boy warrent a life sentence? My spidey senses say no but that's a tough call. I dont have enough facts  to judge that.

    Wait a sec! There's no brains in there too! 

     

    UT oh... Houston we go a problem!

    18 USC 2422(b) carries a max of life.

     

    "Whoever, using the mail or any facility or means of interstate or foreign commerce, or within the special maritime and territorial jurisdiction of the United States knowingly persuades, induces, entices, or coerces any individual who has not attained the age of 18 years, to engage in prostitution or any sexual activity for which any person can be charged with a criminal offense, or attempts to do so, shall be fined under this title and imprisoned not less than 10 years or for life."

     

    As well as 2423(a):

     

    "A person who knowingly transports an individual who has not attained the age of 18 years in interstate or foreign commerce, or in any commonwealth, territory or possession of the United States, with intent that the individual engage in prostitution, or in any sexual activity for which any person can be charged with a criminal offense, shall be fined under this title and imprisoned not less than 10 years or for life."

    That's the Mann Act, right?  The one they nailed R. Kelly on?

    It’s expected I guess.  People are pissed off.  I get it.  It’s all about the playoffs.  Dominating the regular season is nice but players and teams leave their mark on how they do in the playoffs.  I wouldn’t worry too much about how solid the Bills fanbase is.  It’s frustrating but that’s just being in the moment talk.  Nobody is happy right now.. gotta get over that damn hurdle.  
     

    I posted this week that this is this team’s chance to make their mark.  If not now, when?  Well.. this defense isn’t ready and until the Bills do everything they can to beef it up in the off season, the results will most likely mirror what happened tonight.  You cannot win playoff games when another team is running all over you.  The Bills have been due.  We all know it.  It’s passed that even.  Fans are upset and that’s ok.  The front office needs to get to work.

    The Bills were running all over the Chiefs.  Why did the Chiefs win?

    I wonder how long he actually shoveled, looks like he did not even break a sweat at the end of the video.  

    If you're doing it right, you really shouldn't break a sweat.  

     

    I'd take shoveling all day than cutting grass, mowing a lawn for 1/3 of the time.

    Was able to get out and go to Main and Hamlin last night. A work friend of mine strongly recommended their Beef on Weck. So that's what I got. 

     

    Schwabl's is considered the standard in some circles for Beef and Weck. Main and Hamlin's Beef on Weck blows Schwabl's out of the water. It was the best Beef on Weck I have ever had, period. 

    It must have had gravy! 😆 😉

    You can't compare Indiana and it's cheaper labor and minimum wage to NY with it's insane taxes, $15 an hour minimum and labor unions out the ying-yang

     

    Everything is wayyy more expensive... Including stadiums 

     

    Inflation in NY is crazy 

    Stop. If I moved my house to WNY it would gain a 1/4 million dollars more.

     

    And... I live on the Indiana line. 

  10. How was ECC? That's not a bad walk.

    wow. hope they take card. how many people carry around that kind of cash?

    My 85 year old father always had a grand or more in his pocket. Something about being born during the Great Depression or something.  😆

    You fools. The 27 yard attempt at the end was missed PURPOSELY!

     

    The Bills are up 14. It’s 4th and goal from the nine. So you could go for the 4th and risk turnover or injury and nine yards there is tough. So you line up for the chip shot FG. By missing the kick you give the Steelers possession at their own 17. If you make the kick…you risk a big run back on the kickoff and, at the very least a touchback would have placed the ball at the 25…8 yards better for the Steelers….but Austin IIi was going to return the kickoff from even five yards deep. Not worth any risk.
     

    BRILLIANT STRATEGY BY THE BILLS.

    But they make it and they are up 17, three scores. 😉😜
