  1. Attempting this is almost as ridiculous as the first half to the Atlanta game yesterday! Enjoy!😏 https://nypost.com/2025/10/13/lifestyle/the-nyc-slice-shops-on-doordashs-50-best-local-pizzerias-list/
  2. A broken clock is right twice a day, blind squirrel finds a nut.
  3. Nice! What's the closest Bills Backers in this God forsaken PhillyLand!😔 I am getting Blackwood, NJ... Sam's... Ever been there, decent?
  4. Sicklerville... Winslow Township. Probably a stone's throw from you! Daughter is in Camden...
  5. Yeah... Geology in college (UB) kinda does that.😕 But in all seriousness, Upstate WNY does have very interesting, beautiful geology/geography... Where you at now? Still In South NJ/Winslow?... I am there now for the next 10 days... Daughter and family live there!
  6. We used to hike the old trolly trail from Barcelona on Lake Erie to Mayville on Lake Chautauqua... ...Upstate NY is a serious of escarpments... Niagara, Onondaga, then Portage... Geology is glacial tilted upwards... ...When you say "Chautauqua Ridge", do you mean the "Portage Escarpment?" https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Portage_Escarpment This is what basically impounds the eastern basin of Lake Erie: Also called the "Allegheny Escarpment." Onondaga is between Portage & Niagara... This creates the upper rapids @ mouth of L.Erie & Niagara River... You see the cut along the 33/Kensington Expressway/Main Street Rte.5 in say Williamsville and beyond: Then of course the big one, Niagara Escarpment, goes all the way to Door County, Green Bay, Wisconsin... Creates Niagara Falls:
  7. Much like the Tug Hill Plateau gets absolutely hammered from the prevailing west-east winds along the fetch of Lake Ontario (which never fully freezes, even in the harshest winters). On Lake Erie, just pray for early cold, hard freeze that shuts the lake effect off by early January. Cold 🥶 is good! Interesting fact about the Blizzard of '77... Only about 10" of system snow fell. Lake Effect was shut off with an early freeze on Lake Erie... But lots of snow was sitting on the ice from previous snowfalls... The arctic winds blew it off!
  8. Yesterday I learned this was a cover... Took me 57.5 years to find out... Heard it on John Mayer's Sirius channel while driving to New Jersey: The Everly Brothers first recorded it: Actually many covers of it, but thought it was Nazareth's...
  9. Pope's pizza is Aurelio's... I think sauce is too sweet... Http://AureliosPizza.com
  10. Just local joints...
  11. When it comes to deep dish, I like Beggars, Lou Malnati's, & Edwardo's "stuffed." Beggars: Lou Malnati's: Edwardo's Natural: Beggars makes a good tavern style thin: Official WhiteSox pizza... Beggars uses corn meal under the crust...
  12. Chicago thin crust. Deep dish is only like 50 years old. https://blog.slicelife.com/move-over-deep-dish-thin-crust-is-the-real-pizza-of-chicago/ Also called "tavern style" for the way it's cut... The original Chicago pizza. Better than greasy New York. Cracker crust... BUT I still voted for doughy BFLo. It isn't bad. I'd rank top 3 FastFood pizza as: 1. Domino's 2. PizzaSlut 3. LittleSqueezer's That's only the more recent deep dish. Original Chicago pizza is thin crust.
  13. Traditional Catholic... 😉
  14. You TradCaths get me all the time!
  15. Amazin' what idiots are out there: "Another shared, "Bad Bunny has 4 months before he is deported." ..." https://www.themirror.com/entertainment/celebrity-news/maga-call-bad-bunny-deportation-1434541?int_source=amp_continue_reading&int_medium=amp&int_campaign=continue_reading_button#amp-readmore-target Bad Bunny deported and while they're at it, deport me back to New York State... 😆🤣
  16. Yeah... Someday I will be as mature as you. I am trying! 😜 And why didn't Buffalo get an MLB franchise in 1977? Why did the lose the Braves and Toronto pick up Raptors a decade later. We must of did something wrong?
  17. But blame it on NYS! 😆🤣 Niagara Falls & Tesla invented the AC motor... Where does all that power go now... Toronto & NYC... Like everything else, easy to resent when your region is turned into "Radiator Springs."
  18. And Yankees are the only winner. Baseball is USA, apple pie & Chevrolet... Yankee is another name for being American. Very patriotic... How can you root for a city & region that killed us economically? Thank God we still have the Bills. Maybe Buffalo should have got a baseball team in 1977 or a basketball team that didn't leave? Toronto got the Raptors later. All part of the economic killing started after WWII... Easy to resent Toronto & The Golden Horseshoe when Upstate NY was turned into horses azz...
  19. Because the US burned York in 1813. 😉 9/10 Canadians live within 100 miles of America... If there wasn't an international border, BFLo-TOR would be like Milwaukee & Chicago... We've really drifted away from the "Golden Horseshoe" since 911... At one time the biggest cities on Lakes were Chicago & BFLo. Now, Chicago & Toronto. I resent the Seaway. Because what turned Toronto into an international city, killed Buffalo economically, been struggling since.
  20. He works xenophobes into a lather.
  21. Yeah... Ball is an electronic device now... Since ~2017, chipped... How they get some stats like MPH, etc... I suppose...
  22. Can't take chances nowadays getting coldplayed @ cold front game!
