  1. Back in the day... On RR, my father would dead head out through Letchworth over the old trestle. Just past that, he'd jump off... Hole up in a RR shanty till morning and catch the freight coming back to BFLo. He claimed to have dove from the cliffs by the stone bridge as a kid... But I don't believe him.
  2. Yeah... You went the wrong way, putting diesel in a gasoline motor the better of the two. Did you start it? Probably shouldn't have. Immediately get it towed. Anyway... Isn't a diesel pump wider? Probably should have seen there is extra room. You'd think since going the direction you went, more dangerous for the motor... They'd make the diesel pump smaller... BUT I guess more gasoline vehicles and those people would be screwing up more. Thankfully it was ONLY $650. When wife drove through flood with new BMW it was $1500. Thankfully the thing didn't hydrolock...
  3. Mt.Morris Dam. What else? When it's not saving Rochester and surrounding areas: When it is saving (Flood of 1972, Hurricane Agnes I believe) the Greater Rochester area: Go ACoE... ESSAYONS! For my fan club... Best bunch of groupies eva! @BringBackFergy @Beerball @Gugny @Mike in Horseheads
  4. Yeah... CREAK is stealth. Most of the time I associate it with: CREEK... Or as we say: CRICK. 😏 CRANE is damn near perfect. Never fails me. Play Octordle... Use CRANE and see how many greens you get.
  5. The algorithm has figured out... That: CRANE is the best starting would... You eliminate more 5 letter words than any other word in the English language.
  6. Wow! How are they ever gonna "look twice for motorcycles." You know... You gotta "look twice" for motorcycles! Thankfully it was just another vehicle.
  7. I say: YES. He represents the "Drought Years"... The best from it.
  8. No it's not. Take the good with the bad. At least when a storm wipes you guys out... You get all new stuff on someone else's dime. Isn't that where dreams come true. Stay chill. πŸ˜‰
  9. That's why I take winter over this. But look on the bright side, you get all new, modern infrastructure when a hurricane wipes a place out... Off of the backs of the taxpayers in Duluth who have aging infrastructure because winter wear and tear ain't as emotional. Take the good with the bad. Probably what a state income (if Florida had one) should be paying for.
  10. Exactly. It's practical... Hot down there and it keeps their little minded piths cool... Just imagine the chaos if they overheated! 😏
  11. Thanks! Yikes. Amazing how all kinds of erroneous info gets spread. Sorry... And again, thanks for correcting it. Who would spread misinformation like that!
  12. The thing is... According to what I read. A teacher went to their car for a cellphone OR something... They propped open a door. That's how the gunman got in. NOT sure how true this is...??? I am not looking to defend the police force here for might be their inaction... But it had to be a confusing situation on how the gunman got in. Didn't they think it was a "barricade" type situation. I guess it doesn't matter, how the gunman got in... He was in. But... The police couldn't even get in. They had to wondering how the gunman got in? Hope it serves to make the point... Safety rules like: "Don't prop open a door" EVER ... Are meant to protect people!
  13. Worse than bears. Angry bison: https://www.cnn.com/2022/06/01/us/yellowstone-woman-gored-by-bison/index.html
  14. And... We have so much more stupid, useless shi... to make poor choices on and divide up our pocketbooks on!
  15. Yeah... But peeps were only making $3.85/hour. 😏 My last post was meant for you. But @Augie can have it too!
  16. ...We already have been visited. 😏
  17. It's "You Guys." I can't be trolled. LoL... 😏
  18. Yeah... Heard that. Going out to get a cellphone IIRC. Crazy! Sad state when the simplest miscues can lead to this. Such a crazy dangerous world out there... Nation awash with guns...
  19. Was he an ex-student there at one time? I know it's an elementary school, so that would have been a decade ago. Security practices have been in place for decades now... Maybe he knew the lay of the land, procedures so to speak.
  20. Read the article on war and and 18 year old male mind. I be pro that if they made the age 26. Same with alcohol. 26 is when the brain stops developing. Heck... Just make everything 26. πŸ˜† Yeah... The war machine would really want that! πŸ˜†
  21. I agree... He's almost from Vermont... So you have to excuse his weird, alternate choice of words. It's like they don't call "sledding" sledding... They gotta call it "sliding"... /smdh... Same with getting cute with "soft serve" (ice cream)... They gotta be unique and call it a "creamy." That's disgusting, it's soft serve ice cream for crying out load... Now poke is being canceled by prod. What's next! πŸ˜•
  22. So-so. Crapshoot. They break, society will get the repair bill. Bit of an offshoot of the problems, but addresses the young male mind. https://medium.com/war-is-boring/sebastian-junger-knows-why-young-men-go-to-war-f163804cbf6
