  1. Blue skies Smiling at me Nothing but blue skies Do I see Bluebirds Singing a song Nothing but bluebirds All day long
  2. Ridin' in the bus down the boulevard And the place was pretty packed, yeah Couldn't find a seat so I had to stand With the perverts in the back It was smellin' like a locker room There was junk all over the floor We're already packed in like sardines But we're stoppin' to pick up more, look out Another one rides the bus, another one rides the bus Another comes on and another comes on Another one rides the bus Hey, he's gonna sit by you, another one rides the bus
  3. Shaw, I agree with your analysis but not your terminology. The process of using data to recognize one's mistakes, learn from them, and continuously improve is neither cult nor religion, it's science.
  4. USS Robert E. Peary, the ship my Dad served on during WWII:
  5. Only love Can make it rain The way the beach is kissed by the sea Only love Can make it rain Like the sweat of lovers Laying in the fields Love, reign o'er me Love, reign o'er me Reign o'er me
  6. We just got back from the Summer Camp Music Fest in Chillicothe IL. Saw a guy in a throwback Bills hat watching the Chris Robinson Brotherhood. Was this one of you guys? If so, I'm the guy in the Panama hat who said "Go Bills" when I walked by.
  7. We bought lawn seats, but when we got there, they offered us pavilion upgrades for $10/each, so we ended up in section 144, row LL. (Left of the stage, looking at the stage.)
  8. When I look out my window many sights to see and when I look in my window so many different people to be that it's strange so strange you've got to pick up every stitch you've got to pick up every stitch you've got to pick up every stitch must be the season of the witch
  9. Heading south on I-355, just outside of Chicago. I figured he's either an astronomer or a proctologist.
  10. Yesterday I saw a bumper sticker that said "I ? Uranus" It wasn't in Texas, though.
  11. Great show! Simon Townshend (Pete's brother, who plays rhythm guitar with The Who's touring band) was wearing a Buffalo Sabres hat. I know they played Buffalo a couple of weeks ago - maybe he picked it up then?
  12. It's not spam - it's a link to a video clip from The Simpsons.
  13. Ain't but one way out baby, Lord I just can't go out the door Ain't but one way out baby, and Lord I just can't go out the door 'Cause there's a man down there, might be your man I don't know
  14. Yeah, he says it causes his throat to swell up and prevents him from singing. It's been that way for several tours. People who want to smoke should avoid the front rows, I guess. Or learn about edibles. ? I didn't know he told someone to F off, but when we saw them in 2015, he did make a polite request that people not smoke. They're touring with an orchestra this time, playing a lot from Tommy and Quadrophenia with the orchestra, and several other pieces with just the regular band. I realize that The Who is pretty much a tribute band at this point, but they're the best damn Who tribute band playing.
  15. Well I'm goin' away to leave Won't be back no more Goin' back down south, child Don't you want to go? Woman I'm troubled, I be all worried in mind Well baby I just can't be satisfied And I just can't keep from cryin'
  16. Good move for the Bills and the fact that he didn't even try to hit free-agency says that he ... ... wait for it ... ... trusts the process.
  17. It's time I sling the baskets off this overburdened horse Sink my toes into the ground and set a different course 'Cause if I were here and you were there I'd meet you in between And not until my dying day, confess what I have seen.
  18. I didn't say it wasn't entertainment. Obviously, as a league, they have to keep the fans happy. But individual teams should focus on winning, so any information* that could give other teams an edge is kept quiet. The media coverage is part of the entertainment, but for the most part, it's mindless entertainment. Just like when the reporters talk to the coaches as they go into the locker room at halftime. "What are you going to do in the second half, Coach?" "We're gonna keep doing what we've been doing well, and we're gonna have to do better at what we haven't done well." Does anyone expect him to give away the game plan or the halftime adjustments? * See the thread a couple of weeks ago about Belichick having an assistant for virtually every detail.
  19. 90% of what's on those shows, as far as any given team is concerned, are pure speculation and fluff pieces. There's a reason coaches never really say anything at press conferences.
  20. "After reviewing the play ... YOU SHOULD HAVE GIVEN THE DAMN BALL TO MARSHAWN!!!"
  21. It's not about engaging the fans, it's about not tipping your hand to your opponents.
