  1. Ah but I do and I'm not the only one.  Some of you process serially, others can do it in parallel. That you don't understand just means you don't process the same way I do and perhaps are not willing to try to step outside your comfort zone.  If you'd lived in TX, as EII says, you'd know.

    Debbie, did you forget who you were dealing with here? <_<:P

     

    "Son you wear a peace sign on your helmet and you write next to it: 'Born TO Kill'."

    "Sir, Yes, Sir!"

    "Is that supposed to be some kind of a sick JOKE?"

    "Sir, No, Sir."

    "What does it mean?"

    "I don't know, sir."

    "Well you had better get your head wired to your !@#$ or I will take a giant sh-- on you. What does it mean soldier? Figure it out, or you'll be standing tall befoe the man."

    "Sir, I believe it has something to do with the duality of man, Sir"

    "The Duality of What?"

    "You know, that Jungian thing? The duality of Man?"

    "Who's side are you on, boy?"

    "Our side, sir.........."

  2. Minnesota pumps in crowd noise as well, and it's SOO obvious, I don't understand why they don't get in trouble for it (I've seen articles complaining about it, but nothing seems to get done).

     

    Another reason to not allow any domes in the league.

    Maybe MLB knew when they banned the Astros from closing the roof during perfect baseball weather while hosting the WS... Who knows what goes on?

  3. What does Irvin getting caught with drugs have to do with redistricting? 

     

    Did you see something shiney Debbie?

    518241[/snapback]

     

    I am gonna go out on a limb year VA (naa, not me! :lol:;) )... It might be a stretch but, you have been on the board a long time.

     

    So here goes.

     

    It doesn't have anything to do with redistricting. Capiche?

     

    Now lets put two and two together. We all know that Debbie lived in Texas, she is now in Washington. Still not following me?

     

    Maybe it was just a way of saying that Texas is a nutty place?

     

    Now again, NOT that it has anything to do with redistricting in the state of Texas... Which again DOESN'T.

     

    Got it?

     

    Okay,

     

    I

     

    can

     

    slow

     

    down

     

    if

     

    I

     

    am

     

    going

     

    too

     

    fast.

     

     

    :devil::lol::lol:

  4. Lodged a bunch of "little people"... (remember when Fisher-Price actually made them little?) into the downspouts of our gutters. My father really pitched a fit when the gutters became plugged and started to freeze!

     

    Delivered out dated newspapers to all the houses on our street... I was playing "newspaper delivery boy"... My father forgave me for the above act, having rid our household of all the old papers! :devil::lol:

     

    Not my clueless act but, my brothers'. Remember when NYS had the automobile registration stickers on the license plate? Well, my brother went around peeling them off the cars parked along our street (I take they didn't have anti-theft type stickers back then). Needless to say people weren't happy with him!

  5. Little known fact: it was the Poles who broke the German Enigma codes, in the mid-30s.  They gave all their work to the British just before the Germans invaded. 

     

    I'll be glad to have Poland on our side any day of the week.

    518126[/snapback]

     

    Ya... Think they ever received high public praise or compensation? Now we wanna give them credit.

     

    Those crazy Poles getting nothing but grief. I wonder how we are treating them (Poland) today? You can say the French surrendered, the British would have also if it weren't for the English Channel.

     

    0800 September 1, 1939 (two hours after the start of the blitzkreig):

     

    "I'm sorry, your call can't be completed as dialed. Please hang up and try again."

     

    Later on (to the Polish code breakers):

     

    "I am sorry, you can't work in England."

     

    Still later on, 1945:

     

    "I am sorry, we don't recognize the Polish government exiled in London."

     

     

     

    Must be an "exile" thing?

     

    :devil::lol:

  6. either way would have been just fine ....... the point I am trying to make is we need a team of players playing to their talents and complimenting each other .... it doesn't really matter what their name is (other than we pay good damn money for their jerseys) as long as we fit the gameplan to the players ...... NOT try to fit a player to our gameplan.

    516090[/snapback]

     

    Bingo!

     

    Not trying to open up a debate here but, I will use the "dreaded one" (DB) as case in point:

     

    IMO, that has been the problem with DB and his last two teams.

     

    NE hit gold when he went down.

     

    The Bills? :angry:

     

    Not saying that it wasn't a good move... It was... Just bring in the players that are gonna fit your plan and don't make the same mistakes over again.

     

    Maybe it is all part of the plan to revamp the line next year... They can't tell that to "Joe Schmo" fan out there! They'd hit the roof!

     

    They (TD/MM) has gotta have a vision? :doh::doh:

  7. I have been saying this for a couple of years. You are 100% right! Campbell is a #2 as far as I'm concerned, his play has been spotty and he's SLOW.

    Don't even mention Euhus, he's done NOTHING. Neufeld is almost like a FB and shouldnt be an NFL tight end.

    516100[/snapback]

     

    Which again is strange.

     

    MM played as a TE... Even if he wasn't great, wouldn't he know what skills good TE's should have?

     

    :doh::doh:

  8. I know more about Genesis the group than I do about the Cheers guys or Genesis from the Bible.  I read an article a long time ago.  It was back when she was first introduced to the show.  It was with one of the prominent writers, probably one of the three you mention. 

     

    If you can dig up the lyrics for the song it is actually pretty obvious.  In the article he even stated that the lyrics give some foreshadowing for the direction of the show.  You'll see that too, or at least you should.  It's actually very cool and more planning than you'd expect from a sitcom.

     

    Here you go:

    Cool! Thanks 'crayonz!

  9. Here is a tidbit that I pulled up... Seemed that Adam had to "return" his "first" wife. I am so glad God took returns and just didn't say "caveat emptor." :doh:

     

    "The angles who are in charge of medicine: Snvi, Snsvi, and Smnglof. After God created Adam, who was alone, He said, 'It is not good for man to be alone' (Gen. 2:18). He then created a woman for Adam, from the earth, as He had created Adam himself, and called her Lilith. Adam and Lilith began to fight. She said, 'I will not lie below,' and he said, 'I will not lie beneath you, but only on top. For you are fit only to be in the bottom position, while am to be in the superior one.' Lilith responded, 'We are equal to each other inasmuch as we were both created from the earth.' But they would not listen to one another. When Lilith saw this, she pronounced the Ineffable Name and flew away into the air. Adam stood in prayer before his Creator: 'Sovereign of the universe!' he said, 'the woman you gave me has run away.' At once, the Holy One, blessed be He, sent these three angles to bring her back.

     

    :doh::angry:

  10. I bet they're good.

     

    Here's a little Genesis trivia......

     

    The Cheers character Lillith was based on the song "Lillywhite Lillith".

    516086[/snapback]

     

    Really? Where did you hear this from? Neat.

     

    James Burrows, Glen Charles, and Les Charles took it from that song (Lilywhite Lilith)?

     

    I thought Lilith was the "first" wife of Adam. I thought that Charles and Burrows would have gleaned it right out Gen 2:18 and the Jewish legend that surrounds it?

  11. If you have speakers on the PC, go to the NHL.com site and click on NHL radio on the left and you can stream Ric Jennerette.

     

    Afinigenov just scored.

    515999[/snapback]

     

    Thanks!

     

    I was getting bummed out. I brought my Sportster boombox to work, ran the antennz out the window and all and was getting pumped... I knew it was gonna be a Pens broadcast but, I was getting hyped anyway!

     

    I will try the website... Even better, since it will be a Sabres broadcast!

     

    :doh:

  12. Thank you all for your kind words. It means a lot to me to know that people I don't know go out of their way to show support. Thanks.

     

    Today was my first day back at work since he was born, and I'm looking forward to going home and seeing and holding him for awhile.

     

    I plan on printing out a couple of pictures of him and mom for my two-day trip to Detroit Thurs.-Fri. That will keep me inspired and motivated to work hard and get back home quickly. Speaking of Detroit, anyone familiar with how easy or difficult it is to cross into Canada (Windsor) from Detroit? I don't have a passport, so if that's what I need I'll have to try some other time.

    515991[/snapback]

     

    You don't need a passport. Just have your ID ready... The big choice will what way you will want to go... The Ambassador Bridge or the Tunnel.

     

    A lot of times we will take 94 home back to Buffalo and go through Ontario.

  13. The Sirius website gives the NHL schedule.

     

    Sabres Listing

     

    Does anyone know why the Sabres/Pens game tonight (7:30ET) got bounced for the Army/UConn basketball game... WTF! Army/UConn?

     

    I called Sirius and they said I can listen to sports talk... Again, WTF... I want to listen to the game. They do say at the website that games are scheduled to change... Looks like they added the Habs/Sens game on 121... They list it nowwhere!

     

    I am at work and would like to listen to the game.

     

     

    :doh:

  14. I'm color blind (distorted really, I see plenty of color) and I could see the dot in green, but the pink dots behind never disappeared.

    515918[/snapback]

     

    I was just curious... Thanks. I have a friend that is color-blind and he claims he has a hard time seeing greens.

     

    And same here, the pink dots never really disappeared except for the ones in the lower left corner (quadrant 3).
