I forgot about my holiday case of either wine or spirits. I got the spirits this year. Flavored vodka, gin, brandy, rum and tequila.
This reminded me of that old Johnny Coli blog, where he told the story of working in a liquor store during the holidays and throwing in a page of gay porn with each gift basket shipment. That blog was pure gold.

If Yes gets in, Chris Squire wants Rush to induct them..
http://kearth101.cbs...and-jimmy-page/
If you get in, who would you want to do the speech?
I haven’t given it much thought, maybe those Rush guys who got in last year! I’m pretty good friends with Dave Grohl and Taylor Hawkins (of the Foo Fighters) and they did a great speech for Rush… so probably not them, since they just did one. But if you know Geddy (Lee), let him know that that would be fine by me. I don’t know how these things work, though, I don’t know how much control we have, how much control the voting committee has, and of course we’re still kind of wondering how many members of Yes would be inducted.

They were still alive toward the end of '06. I remember going to the Tennessee game and they were still alive in the wild card chase. But alas, Robert Royal didn't bother getting his feet in bounds and the Bills lost. Not to mention, Vince Young was INSANE that year (and that game in particular), something that everyone seems to forget about.
How could I forget? I was actually at that game! Ok, so it's only seven years since this team has manged to cling to a sliver of hope into late December. I feel much better.

When was the last time you haven't had to dig deep to muster some enthusiasm for post week 14 Bills game? Jan 1, 2005 for me

Ted's is awesome, but there are plenty of other hot dog joints in WNY that are just as good. Goerge's in Boston, Red Top on Rt. 5 in Hamburg and Louie's on Elmwood to name a few.

I get a great afternoon with my co-workers eating good food and having a few drinks and a ton of laughs. The 7 of us including my director and manager are a pretty tight knit group and we enjoy our time together outside of the office. We also get to come to work everyday and are respected and thanked for our contributions and skills. That goes a long way with me anyway.
You're spot on with this. I actually get a fairly good monetary bonus each year, but next to zero of this. I'd rather have it reversed.
I get a subscription to the Jelly of the Month Club. It's the gift that keeps on giving throughout the entire year.
That it is Edward..that it is indeed....

No---the ballad from that album is "Community Property". So honest. So loving.
Youre right. Girl From Oklahoma had more of an Extreme stripped down acoustic thing going on. Still my favorite slow SP song.
-
I still get misty when "Weenie Ride" comes on. Damn power ballads...
Weenie Ride is a tear jerker, but as SP power ballads go I'm still partial to "Girl From Oklahoma" off the first album.

Steel Panther! Awesome!---was playing some Panther at work this AM. "It Won't Suck Itself", "17 Girls in a Row".....
Album of the decade! Listening at work on headphones I assume? I have a new favorite song every week. This week I'm enjoying Gold Digging Whore....

Duke survey: Firms to hire less, shift more jobs to part-time due to healthcare law
“I doubt the advocates of this legislation would have foretold the negative impact on employment,” said Campbell Harvey, a professor of finance at Duke's Fuqua School of Business. “The impact on the real economy is startling. Nearly one-third of firms may either terminate employees or hire fewer people in the future as a direct result of ACA.” -
I wonder how many other teams have been able to go un-penalized during games this season? It would be very interesting to see if teams like the Bills, Browns, Jaguars, Lions, Bengals, etc. receive more penalty calls than the same teams that have been "winning" during the last 10-15 years (i.e., Pats, Giants, Saints, Packers, Colts, Steelers, Broncos, Cowboys, etc.).
A quick google uncovered this little nugget from 2011.

The rare accomplishment has happened just 40 times since the start of the 1976 season, a span of 8,173 regular season games.Yet it happens for the Pats twice in the same season, and they have yet to play us at home so three times is looking like a strong possibility.. Yeah, nothing fishy here at all.

I am the lone Bills fan who roots for the Pats once the Bills are out of it.
Yes, you have to be.
I love the way they play. Brady is the ultimate competitor and Belichick is the best coach of my lifetime in any sport.Sure if you can still admire an undeniably great coach who is also a dour, unsportsmanlike !@#$ stick and one of the greatest QB's of all time who is also a candy ass cry baby.
All of us wish he was running the Bills organization. Anyone who claims otherwise is lying or deluded.Of course, but since this is pure fantasy we can continue to call a spade a spade and hate them for what they are.
Does anyone really believe the league or the refs want them to win or are some of you just blowing off steam?I don't, frankly I don't know what the motivations are, but anyone who will deny that the Pats have been beneficiaries of these calls at roughly the same rate that teams like the Bills and Browns are screwed by them are the delusional ones.

Milk, bread and eggs.... GONE!

I am girding my loins for the responses that criticize my opinion. Doesn't matter. I'm okay with that. Fire away.
I won't criticize your opinion, because you are right. I just don't know why people do this to themselves. Every year we can say the same damn thing come late November into December. If, if, if if.. Until the Bills are one of the teams being chased for playoff spot come this time of year it's just not worth caring about anymore.

I've been at the acceptance / numb stage for about five seasons. Frankly, I'm not sure how some get so worked up still over this team. I love the Bills and will always watch but damn if they haven't forced me into a detached observer at this point.
-
Not only would the team formerly known as the Bills be dead to me, the entire NFL would be as well.
-
I only wish that I had been better prepared for this as a Bills fan. If only the past 13 seasons of continually being kicked in the nuts by this franchise had allowed me to see this coming...

never even heard of Mammosers - ill put it on my list to check out if you claim their wings are solid....not that I ever really have a reason to be in Hamburg
You do now! Mammoser's wings are up there with Bar Bill Tavern. Both blow Duff's out of the water.

The exclusion of Sierra Nevada Celebration makes that list worthless.

My kids are 5 and 8 and I still make them hold my hand in a parking lot. You think people drive like idiots out on the roads and highways? That's nothing compared to the idiocy you see in parking lots.

I gotta tell ya that I'm SHOCKED that this season is playing out exactly like the previous 13. Shocked!

By the way, that article was brutal.
Horrendous

Do they even know it is a flu at this point? They pretty much have to cover all their bases and get anything they can. But anyway, I could see people in a panic situation like this (as if there would be some realistic panic moment anything like this one) not having any clue what they actually need.
But hey, that massive zombie herd was pretty damn cool. There's one thing that could definitely bring down the prison if it ever moved that way.
I don't think they have confirmed it on the show, but they could have looked to get a flu lateral flow test kit (works like a pregnancy test) from the hospital to know for sure...maybe that was one of the other items on the list since they have doctors there and that would be an obvious thing to ask for. On one of the talking deads a writer did say that it is indeed an extremely virulent flu that has broken out at the prison and that they modeled it after the 1918 Spanish flu pandemic that ended up killing a lot of young, healthy people.

Countless idiots have blown these jackpots and are left penniless. This is pretty close to what I'd do...
