  1. Thanks for making a dull sounding day entertaining!
  2. I can find things to get excited about. This D could be setting Micah Hyde up to have a career year for interceptions.
  3. I always go here http://www.frankiestikiroom.com/it's small, it's funky. You'll either love it or hate it, not a lot of middle ground at Frankies.
  4. Go buy 10 EJ jerseys in the Bills store... or maybe I'd do something stupid with it
  5. Sadly no. He's a year younger than me. So he's not as ...... wise as I am.
  6. Yep. When I first read this I was stuck in about 2 years of almost unemployment. I had been a computer programmer for 16 years, then a post-production manager at a TV production company for 7 years. I was stuck on thinking I was still those 2 things, but I wasn't that at all. My programming languages were outdated and I had no more interest in TV. But I kept saying I was those things. Had to drop it all. Move one. This article was the one that made me realize I wasn't that anymore and no one cared about what I was anyway.
  7. It's a great self help article in that way. No touchy feely stuff in this one. I don't have any plans on the wealth part. But this has put me on to working with someone who is following this type of idea. They are around year 4, now an expert in the field, and they moved me into almost full time as a result. I wasn't in this for the money, but as a soon to be 50 year old, this approach has me on to a new career doing something interesting that I didn't think I'd be doing at this point in life. A friend read it at my prompting last year and has switched up their outlook on life as well.
  8. I first read this 4 years ago. Life was crap and I was stuck. This is the one that got me back on track. Every year I have posted it somewhere different. This year it's Two Bills Drive's turn. A bit of self help for skeptics. Working for me, in its own weird way. Might work for you, worth a shot.

  9. Can't remember. I knew I was at night school that night so I deleted it.
  10. I deleted the email, but the Bills sent an email today saying there will be a practice at New Era on June 15th* Great chance for people to bring their kids to the stadium and check things out. I like the idea of bringing a practice (maybe a few of them) back to Buffalo. *If someone else could post the email that would be great
  11. Something that gives me brutal food poisoning, so I'm begging them to kill me the next day.
  12. Starts with one - quickly turns into a number 2
  13. 14 years - same time as you
  14. I like giving him the reigns too. There's an idea that he hasn't proven himself enough to rule the land - but are guys who are proven available to teams like Buffalo? I don't know enough to know, but my gut tells me proven winners aren't coming here. We need to take a flyer on someone. Random thought here - I wonder what a guy like Tim Lieweke could do with an NFL franchise like the Bills? Tim seems to right bad clubs then leave them just before they shine.
  15. I'm fine in huge crowds - 60,000 people = no problem. Put me in a room with 12 people and I'm doomed.. Are you invited to parties?
  16. Great article - thanks for posting it
  17. I had two single seats to the Hamilton, Ont show last year. The venue ended up letting me swap them the day before the show for 2 seats together on the floor by the sound booth. The setup for the show is a big deal and they don't know how many extra seats they can squeeze in by the booth until the last minute. Also, there were better seats going on sale the week and 2 - 3 weeks after the show went on sale on Ticketmaster than there were the day the seats went on sale. So if you're into tickets for this show keep checking.
  18. My plan is: 1. Google whoever we draft after we draft them 2. Post my well researched opinion 3. Get told I'm an idiot 4. Enjoy the summer 5. See if last years draft picks can actually play this September 6. Get pumped up, convince myself we are headed to the Superbowl 7. Drink away my sorrows
  19. Maybe the NFL thinks Brady will retire after this season and they want him to bow out with the AFC East, last 2 at home. NE schedule Nov 26 home to the Dolphins Dec 3 at the Bills Dec 11 at the Dolphins Dec 17 at the Steelers Dec 24 home to the Bills Dec 31 home to the Jets
  20. We could have had an extra home game in Sept, or Oct, or two games in Nov, but they gave us 3 fuc**** home games in a row in December. Stupid friggin schedule
  21. Some city could get a massive snowstorm and need to move their home game to New Era (ala Bills Jets in Detroit) Just think - we may get a Browns home game some year!
  22. The weathers never any good in October, November, December!!! All of our games should have been in September!!!
  23. I'll wig out now if it helps.
  24. Interesting. I think I heard that the aerial mines were meant to explode on a delay. Basically land mines from the sky that could sit in waiting. So you would re-enter your home thinking you were safe, then find out you weren't. My father in law saw a lot. He was in the first group of kids shipped out of London when the British thought the blitz was coming. After being in Oxford for several weeks his family figured it was safe to bring him home. He arrived back in London the day the blitz started. Tells me about spending the first night in a shelter and after seeing the damage the next day, realizing that the shelter wasn't going to do anything for him. He spent the rest of the blitz in the street watching the bombs fall and the fighter planes buzzing around. He told me that once you got over the fear of dying it was the most fascinating thing a 14 year old kid could see. He was a good artist and filled a sketch book with various planes that crashed near him. Thanks for the info.
