Saw. With the the grammar lesson out of the way, it was the Niagara Power Authority’s 25th Anniversary spectacular at the Niagara Reservoir in 1985. They were done by the same people that had put on the show for the rededication of the Statue of Liberty a couple of years earlier. They were choreographed and set to music simulcast by 97 Rock. Purple fireworks exploded over Jimi Hendrix’ guitar riffs on Purple Haze. Jaundiced explosives filled the night sky as Donovan sang Mellow Yellow and silver, glimmering pyrotechnics lit up the evening landscape as the Beatles sang Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds. I wish I had had some way of recording it for posterity’ sake.

I don't know. He was on that Dr. Drew Rehab show some years back and was a complete mess. I didn't think he was going to be long for this Earth. Here's hoping he is okay and makes a full recovery.

I wonder why we don't see that goal all of the time in the NHL? It's pretty much the Gait brothers move from lacrosse. Many guys in the NHL would have the skill level to pull that off. The goalie is always down hugging the post and couldn't guard the top corner at the same time.

Rarely has a band connected more strongly with their audience than the Avett Brothers do with theirs. Here is a great example of it:

It’s not a new idea. In 1974, World Team tennis actually had the Buffalo-Toronto Royals. Half the games were played at the old Aud and the other half north of the border. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Toronto-Buffalo_Royals

He was speaking directly to the issue with the boats in the Niagara River. The more water that is diverted above the falls at the intakes doesn't get put back in the river until Lewiston.

A coach's nightmare - a player guaranteeing a SB victory based on his performance at mini-camp. LOL

I have worked in tourism in Niagara Falls for the past 25 years. The water levels in the lower Niagara are higher than they've ever been. This past Friday the Hornblower and Maid of the Mist boats lost a full day of business for the first time in history because the water level submerged the docks that passengers use to access the boats. It was the 5th day this season they had a shutdown ( the other four were just partial day losses.) It's a huge problem and is not going to get better anytime soon. I was told by one engineer that they are hoping for sustained hot weather with increased air-conditioner useage so that the increase demand for hydro will call for more water to be sent through the upper-river water intakes to the power plants.

Greatest honkey tank bar in America. So many country music classics were written at Tootsie’s. http://www.tootsies.net/theLegacy

Very happy for Ryan O’Reilly and the people of St. Louis. I hope we get to experience that euphoria some day.

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.

Fixed it for you: Blah $$$$ culture blah $$$$ culture blah $$$$ culture...

That was a great read. Thanks.

Thank God Botts got it done. Now let’s add Duchene in FA.

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.

TMZ video, just like everyone else.

Paul Simon deserves serious recognition.
