The Dean

Nice.

A classic. But of a slightly different genre, I think. And, for what it's worth, I typically eat the parsley garnish on my plate. Similar joke about Oprah and a bowling ball.

When did this turn in to "Opening line to any song you can think of"?

Well, maybe 95% of my ex-girlfriends anyway. My best girlfriends were light-to-moderate drinkers and that's about it. Fun when tipsy. No real problem with any other substances---maybe take a puff of cheeb now and then. I actually know a few women who can drink, and act relatively normal (like me--at least that's my story). But there seem to be few of them, and quite frankly, few men seem to be able to do that, too. As a former bartender I see too many people who are "instant idiots--just add alcohol!"

Dude? Well you are better off not with the company, that much is clear. If your boss holds you responsible for the performance of the team, but you have no control over the team, you are in a no-win situation. Too bad you have to find a job while unemployed--that sucks. You have my sincerest sympathy. My guess is, you will end up in a far better position. Enjoy the time off while you have it.

I know this is a bit hypocritical, as I have engaged in these back-and-forth discussions with someone who refuses, or simply cannot, get the point. But I believe you, Kirby and Bandit have gone above and beyond the call on this one. It ain't getting through. If it has gotten through, he refuses to admit it. Whatever.

Poetic license?

Roll the dice! Remember, you dont have to post the dirty part...unless both parts are dirty. Hmmm. Interesting. Now I have to know.

Try the veal. Don't forget to tip the bartender/servers.

I'll pile on the to the well-wisher bandwagon. Very good player and class act. Enjoy your retirement Jabari. (I'm sure he reads this site.)

Job? I thought you were a cattle baron? Do I have the wrong poster? But, in any event, good luck man. Job hunting (when you actually need a new job) sucks. But enjoy your vacation to the fullest! Let's cap if off with a Bills rout. BTW, I freaking love solar storms. Unfortunately I'm not in the best spot to fully enjoy them. I have had the pleasure of watching some in nice, secluded spots and there is nothing quite like it.

No wine for you!

Me too, At this stage in their progression, I like them better as a team that gets no respect. And as don't really bet on team sports, I don't give a damn about the spread. Just win.

Yes, to an extent. I think the Bills made a decision on how to play Cutler and his very tall (and good) group of receivers. Blitzes were kept to a minimum, resulting in less pressure than we were used to seeing last year. Another factor could been the Bears' very effective use of the screen pass which can keep the defenders from being too aggressive. My biggest concern is they weren't able to control the screen. I can't believe Chicago didn't run any in OT. But with that said, I'm sure they weren't entirely satisfied with the lack of pressure provided by the DL.

OK, I'm really using this thread to see if anyone knows what sub-genre the following riddles belong. These riddles typically ask :What's the difference between..." And the choices given are very dissimilar from one another in may respects. The answer involves the teller giving part of the answer that describes one of the items (and that is typically clean) and relies on the audience to fill in the remaining of the answer, which is a twist on the provided part of the answer (typically not so clean).. As this is all confusing, let me provide a few well-known examples: Q What's the difference between a pickpocket and a peeping tom? A, A pickpocket snatches watches. Now, sometimes people ruin this type of riddle by actually giving the entire answer...but that sort of deflates the comedic effect, IMO, The rest of the answer is obviously: "a peeping tom watches snatches". The peeping tom in this example is not a reference to DC Tom--just so we're clear. Another: Q. What's the difference between pygmies and a women's track team? A. Pygmies are cunning runts. See how that works? OK, one more. A. What's the difference between an epileptic raw bar server and a prostitute with diarrhea? Q. An epileptic raw bar server shucks between fits. Add some some more! And, if you know, what specifically are these riddles called?

Definitely. Pretty much anyone is faced at that level, though. Some people can handle s#itfaces better than others. For some of us, the legal limit (.08) is a base level. Hard for me to think properly if I get much below that. As for my preferences in women... ...you'll just have to guess on what I prefer. But I will say I've had too many girlfriends with the worst combination: Low tolerance, no willpower, bats#it crazy when drunk. I can't do that anymore.

Nice

Feat!

Um, once again, you leave out vital information. Without the Trust's marching orders to only sell to a group committed to Buffalo, long term, perhaps more "viable" bidders would have come forward. See how that works?

Crap. Better go buy a cleanse kit. How long do I have?

Argo fans? The Argos home attendance is among the bottom in the CFL, Toronto is the most populous city in Canada, but has had the second lowest attendance in the CFL the past two years. 2013: 21,926 average game. 2012: 23,690. I believe between the failure to support their home team, and the failure to really deliver a crowd during the Bills series, Toronto has demonstrated it simply is not a football town. Maybe Vancouver should get a team.
