May Movies: Aladdin, Godzilla, John Wick & Rocketman
ChevyVanMiller replied to Mark Vader's topic in Off the Wall Archives
Wife and I saw it last weekend, pretty much in lock-step with your review. There were a couple of families in the theater that brought their 80-year-old grandmas along. Can't imagine what the grannies thought about the graphic gay sex scene. -

That was a great read. Thanks. -
Who Was Better: Bruce Smith or Reggie White
ChevyVanMiller replied to Phil The Thrill's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Yeah, pretty much. He was nearly unstoppable as he would just swat the O-Lmen away like flies. -

Reggie was amazing, but he got many of his sacks with that club move, which would be illegal in today's game. -

Quindarius Thagard should have been a character name on Game of Thrones. Maybe he’ll catch on up North in the CFL. -
Man, I was just watching The Last Waltz this morning. What a great musician. RIP Mac.

Best BBQ in the Buffalo Area?
ChevyVanMiller replied to D. L. Hot-Flamethrower's topic in Off the Wall Archives
Recently tried Smoke on the Water in Tonawanda for the first time. Ribs and beef brisket were both excellent and the sides were all top notch. -

Winston Churchill's ability to lift the spirits of the British people in times of adversity were, however, neatly balanced with a sparkling line in withering put-downs. Now Churchill has topped a poll of history's funniest insults with a famous jibe directed at either the socialist MP Bessie Braddock or the Conservative Lady Astor, the first female MP (depending on which version of the story you hear). When accused by one of them of being 'disgustingly drunk' the Conservative Prime Minister responded: 'My dear, you are ugly, and what’s more, you are disgustingly ugly. But tomorrow I shall be sober and you will still be disgustingly ugly.'

Its Bob Dylan's Birthday... I Have This...What do you have?
ChevyVanMiller replied to T&C's topic in Off the Wall Archives
From the movie, "Renaldo and Clara," a live version of the Desire song, "One More Cup of Coffee." Notice Bob's tour bus driving in front of the old Convention Center (now the Seneca Casino) and through the streets of Niagara Falls. always loved this version. -
PanchoBilla enters Hospice (Has now passed away)

Well, yeah, I would assume it would all be done with his family’s blessing. -
PanchoBilla enters Hospice (Has now passed away)
ChevyVanMiller replied to mead107's topic in Off the Wall Archives
There’s been a lot of talk about the best way for the Bills to honor Pancho. From signing him to a one-day contract (before he passed) to putting him on the wall to naming the tailgating village after him. The issue that I have with those ideas is that it puts him in a special class above other fans of the Bills. This board is filled with Super Fans in their own right, many of whom have or one day will battle for their lives against a terrible illness. I think if Pancho were to receive one of those distinctions then many other fans in similar situations should receive the same treatment from the team, which simply isn’t feasible. I’ve had Pancho in my thoughts, like so many of you, and the idea occurred to me that what Ezra accomplished was to create a character, Pancho Billa, almost universally loved by Bills fans around the globe. To honor him and his courageous fight what if the Bills made Pancho Billa their official mascot? Billy Buffalo has never been embraced by the fan base. Imagine someone donning the Pancho costume and serving as our official mascot on the sidelines on game days. Bins could be set up outside the stadium so that fans could donate backpack supplies every game day to keep Ezra’s final wish paying forward. Just a thought, but I’d love everyone’s thoughts on the subject. -
