  1. Was sitting on the fan "border" last nite. Grew up with Sabres ST in the Aud. Have lived in CBUS for 20 yrs (!). That was a horrific display by the CBJ last nite. Sabres trending much better than CBJ.
  2. Charlie Brown Christmas White Christmas Christmas Vacation
  3. Great selection !!! Greg Lemond winning the 1989 Tour de France by 8 seconds over Laurent Fignon July 23rd 1989, the bout took place between Versailles and Paris in a 24.5 km time-trial. The gap between leader Laurent Fignon and Greg LeMond was 50 seconds. Greg LeMond knew he had nothing to lose and everything to hope for if he gave all he had. Alas, Laurent Fignon lost the Tour de France after a 3257 km race for 8 seconds, the equivalent of 82 meters. To this day, these 8 seconds remain the smallest overall gap ever between the Tour de France winner and the rider finishing second.
  4. Comes off the bench late in 4th quarter to lead Toronto over Winnipeg
  5. 34 huh? Trying living with this at 62!! You've got a lot of growing to do.
  6. My sister lives in Jax Beach about 1 block from the beach. She estimated that about 8feet of the dunes, that were rebuilt not too long ago, were washed away.
  7. I was watching the game when this happened. First thing that came to mind was Clint Malarchuk. The size of gloves and the "gauntlet" have shrunk over the years. Look at old pictures. Some players wear kevlar "sleeves" for their ankles and wrists for protection.
  8. Good to hear that he is feeling better. And take note everyone - don't put off that annual physical.
  9. The officials are graded each week on every play. That is how the crews / individual officials are picked for playoffs / Super Bowl.
  10. Cleaned machining centers (sweeping up chips / wiping off machines) at local machine shop Handyman assistant - installed aluminum siding, took down and installed new shingles, pointed brickwork "Engineering assistant" - installed strain gages on machine, wrote CNC programs, made changes on drawings (actual drawings,not CAD), ran durability tests on equipment
  11. I was a mayo skeptic until the butter I had available was still in the fridge. Gave the mayo a free agent try out. First team all american HOF'er 🥇 🏆
  12. Not only funeral coverage, but transition coverage to Charles.
  13. My thoughts extend to you. I can't help much on the Buffalo front as I haven't lived there in like forever. However, as I consider downsizing in Columbus I have been thinking of renting for a brief period of time. Reason being is to allow me time/space to get a fresh look on the area. As you are moving from FL to Buffalo, consider the time to maintain house / yard that could be used for other things. Renting may be an option to consider.
  14. The tour of the Robert Moses Power Plant is interesting if you like geeky things. The Buffalo Harbor boat tour and the observation deck on the top of Buffalo City Hall - awesome.
  15. Checked that. Unless it is somewhere on the site that I did not check, price was not there.
  16. What does a gallon cost from the mill store? Just wondering.
  17. I may be the odd one here. I'm happy with Columbus OH. Now - I may take a period of time to hang in FL, AZ, CO, UT, NC.
  18. Quiz: How many F-bombs were dropped in this video? LOL!!
  19. IMO - Parents see kids as a way to have college paid for or better (pros). A fraction of a percent make it that far. Elite / travel teams have only made a bad situation worse.
  20. I don't recall that one. GL was in second place going into the last stage - an individual time trial. GL was behind LF 50 secs. GL was one of the first to use clip on aero bars, aero helmet, wheels and did so in this ITT. Where LF rode without the aero bars and aero helmet. GL recovered the 50 secs and beat LF by 8 secs. Both men rode flat out - averaging almost 32mph for 15 miles.
  21. On tv: Already suggested was Miracle on Ice, SU NCAA BB championship win. Two new ones. 1 - Greg Lemond beating Laurent Fignon to win the TdF by 8 secs on the last stage, which was a individual time trial. 2 - Michael Johnson 200m / 400m gold medal wins in Atlanta. LIke watching Secretariat. In person: CBJ Nick Foligno OT game winner against Pitt. Sitting in the upper deck I could have swore that the building was shaking.
  22. No. Thank. You. Snakes and ticks give me the willies.
  23. My parents (both 83) were there 2 weeks ago. They said they were the oldest customers in the place, but had a blast. Service, food, other customers were awesome. They split an order of wings and a small weck - plenty.
