  1. No doubt. I had to move my stove to find out they were coming in through a hole in the wall where the electrical cord went. Stuffed it full of steel wool, which is one of the few things the little buggers won't chew through, and haven't seen one in years now. Hantavirus is nothing to mess around with.
  2. Note you will likely have to travel to see David play again.. on his last 'tour' he only played a few USA cities calling it 'an old man tour'. He said something along the lines of 'I'm old now so I need to make my fans come to me' (Rock Gods can do this kind of thing!) Chicago was my closest city so I made a long weekend out of it and had a great time with the concerts and the city sights. PS. tickets for Nick Mason's "Saucerful of Secrets" USA tour are on sale now, the set list is a dream for fans of old PF
  3. Best concert is hard - I saw a lot of Gov't Mule shows in clubs back in the mid to late 90's that were musically as good as anything I've ever seen in Arenas or Stadiums. A David Gilmour show at the Paramount in Oakland in 2006 is near the top of the list - with Rick Wright in the band it was basically a mini Pink Floyd show in a 3000 seat venue. I could not stop smiling for hours after the show. Worst concert is easy - Van Halen in Denver in 2012. Diamond Dave forgot most of the lyrics and laughed about it through the whole show when he wasn't berating the venue staff. I'm convinced the sound guy just said fuggit and spun all the dials to max because it was painfully loud and not in a good way Bucket list - I can honestly say I've seen everyone I have wanted to see and had the opportunity to see. I guess I'd like to see Macca just to say I've seen a Beatle. Concert wish - Definitely Pink Floyd, probably with Syd Barrett but I'd definitely settle for Rog Dave Nick and Rick. Poojer: I live 15 mins from Red Rocks, let me know if you ever need a place to crash before or after a RR show CookieG: you reminded me of a BB King show at Impaxx night club in West Seneca in 1994 - what an amazing experience it was to see the King of the Blues in such a small venue
  4. Probably 2017 ? https://www.setlist.fm/setlist/roger-waters/2017/kfc-yum-center-louisville-ky-53e73751.html No Echoes though - that caught my eye because I don't think he's ever played this song since departing the Floyd (someone please prove me wrong, if it happened I'd be interested to know who sang the vocals)
  5. Ken told me that he sat behind the goal posts at XXV and from his angle the kick "looked good to me!" Canton?
  6. that #PanchoPower stuff really works!
  7. 2 General please, thanks very much!
  8. I see a lot of talent on the defensive side of the ball, and I'm confident they would have played a lot better on Sunday if we showed even the slightest bit of competency on the offensive side. I would hope even in a rebuilding/retooling/regurgitating year we could at least field a 'fair' offense but we can't even do that and therefore I think we're wasting what could have been a top defense.
  9. if you can find them, there's a line of frozen food called 'Devour'.. all of their products are mucho tasty but I warn you - don't look at the 'nutrition' label - their numbers are off the charts, even by frozen food standards! > you reminded me of the Stouffers lasagna, which I used to love! "It's like - hell yeah I'm stoked for this lasagna! Then you nuke it and the cheese is all scabby.. it's like whatever happened to truth in advertising??" (/BB Reference)
  10. The IDA Mashed Roast Beef Sandwich - mashed potatoes and onion rings on a roast beef sandwich with extra horseradish.. hell yeah
  11. I had a tiny catfish that lived 15 years - impressed me so much I couldn't bear to flush him so I buried him next to our apartment building. A few months later, I come home from work to find an excavator in the yard - they're tearing up the whole place including my makeshift plot to fix a drainage issue LOL I wonder if he's haunting them for disturbing his peaceful rest
  12. I've watched the whole series through no less than 6 times (once backwards) and there are still new details and nuances I pick up that I didn't notice before. The layers of complexity and detail and how everything lines up not only within BB but also BCS is beyond remarkable! What an amazing team of writers Vince has put together.
  13. Totally agree, which makes it even more baffling how many places find different ways to screw them up. There's a bar here in Golden that makes pretty simple but okay wings - but they don't bother to butcher and separate the drum and the flat or even the wing tip! So you get this big awkward pile of connected chicken bones that you immediately have to start cracking and twisting to separate like a lobster or something. On the positive side, we have the Shawing food truck here in the Denver metro area, and Chris does a great job of making consistently great wings plus a lot of other WNY specialties and he offers discounts for Buffalo fans - so heads up to all the Colorado Bills Backers here to hunt down his orange truck at some of the best brewpubs in town (shawingtruck.com)
  14. if your audio setup has a center channel, mute it and you will keep the game sounds intact
  15. earliest memory I can put an actual date on is being 3 1/2 years old at Centennial Park in West Seneca during the Bicentennial 4th of July celebration in 1976. it's just a blur of red white and blue colors in my head but I believe we watched the parade go down Union Rd and I think they were throwing candy from the floats
  16. thanks read it too quickly and was thinking 21-12
  17. If I understand the new-ish rule correctly, the Jets could have intercepted or returned that 2 point try the other way and suddenly it's a 1 score game
  18. I think Matt and Trey could pull off some funny stuff with them as teenagers
  19. back when they did that '4th grade' season I thought they might break the mold and actually have the kids grow up on the show. too bad they didn't, I think that would have been pretty neat.
  20. now there's a pro tip if I've ever read one
  21. This sure didn't stop them from playing up the Kermit-Miss Piggy relationship
  22. I hope they realize the tailgate is a major reason why I even buy a ticket in the first place. I've been to more meaningless December games than I can ever hope to remember, and the party before the games is the biggest reason I do. I know I'm not a STH so my opinion probably doesn't matter much, but I also know there are many others like me.
  23. I post this every once in a while as a PSA.. if your audio setup has a center channel you can turn it off and mute the announcers leaving the sounds of the game intact.
  24. I couldn't deal with progressive lenses. When I complained about not being able to see clearly outside of the 'hour glass' zone, they told me I needed to learn to 'point my nose' at whatever I wanted to look at. With my 3 monitor display at work this turned me into some sort of awkward bird, constantly moving my head back and forth. I bailed out and went back to single-focus lenses, but reading is difficult and I have to either move these glasses towards the end of my nose or take them off entirely (I'm myopic). It sucks getting old and this fact is getting more evident every day...
  25. lots of interesting studies about swearing and the brain - won't link them here since they are easy to google but basically, they originate in a different part of the brain than normal conversational speech.
