  1. Mississippi? Honestly, never heard that as a winter getaway, but if it’s as nice as Alabama, I get it. The Red Neck Riviera is beautiful.
  2. He had an amazing Rock-n-Roll memorabilia collection. Thought he did like a traveling road show of sorts with it.
  3. Buffalo: where rush hour is 45 minutes.
  4. It’s aboot time, eh? (il était temps he’?)
  5. Every time my wife and I are on 20A there we say how nice it be to live on it for just the reason you stated. We always scope it out, but if something came up we could swing, the snow would more than likely scare us away at this point in life.
  6. I had been looking forward to watch Sugano pitch thinking the O’s had some young up and comer…..oops Scoring from 2nd on a 1-3 ground out, yeah it can look worse.
  7. Sitting here trying to psych myself to get on the treadmill, my wandering mind thought of Paul Giamatti in Howard Sterns "Private Parts" movie, and correlated to Trump:
  8. If you ever get the Buffalo winter blues: ”Say hello to my little friend”
  9. Looking back it’s kind of hard to believe ‘Cheers’ was almost cancelled. It bombed in the ratings in its first season.
  10. They put one of those new smart meters on my house when I wasn’t home. Dirty *****! Bill jumped about 25%. I’ve been meaning to call(thanks for the reminder)to see if it can be switched back, but doubt they will. I just asked my wife, she says it’s closer to 40% for each of the two months we’ve had it.
  11. I didn’t think my first back surgery (‘88) was major until they said I’d be in a striker bed. They turned me, strapped in the bed, like a pancake every 4 hours for 3 days. They chipped bone from my hip to fuse three vertebrae together, which didn’t take. They said my drinking contributed greatly for why it didn’t take. My next surgery to correct it (‘90) was with rods and screws. I got embolisms in both lungs and was in the ICU for almost two weeks. Had 3 more surgeries since then. I had to have a filter installed to catch clots for each. The last surgery was 3yrs. ago. more rods and screws with adjustments to the hardware. The discs just keep blowing upwards. I carry a card for going through metal detectors. Yeah, I guess back surgeries can be considered major.
  12. To a generation I don’t think it a stretch to think many upon hearing the name Norm, this is who pops into their head.
  13. OKC went and got the one piece they thought they needed, Hartenstein, and it worked. Bills went and got the one piece they thought they needed, Miller, and it did not work. That’s my OKC/Bills analogy.
  14. Olde English 800 for me, but I was fussy.
  15. Alcohol can lead to pot which can lead to hard drugs which can lead to heavier alcohol and drug use which can lead to legal problems, marital problems and worse…..so I’ve heard.
  16. My 4 y.o. grandson was listening to their X-mas album last year, looks up and says “they have the most beautiful voices”. Awwww…..
  17. Not defending him as obviously he does it, 3x I saw him don’t recall political preachiness. The last time, “The River” tour, if he did, I missed it, probably catching my breath. It was another sledgehammer show.
  18. Sabres/Leafs games were the best, rowdy crowd, felt like a playoff game. Was my favorite game to go to. Now, nah.
  19. My wife went through three years of radiation and chemo. Kicked her ass, it was beyond brutal what it did. I don’t know what Biden is facing but good luck Joe.
  20. Can’t say I don’t know how Leaf fans feel, at least it wasn’t for the Cup itself. Now that’s heartbreak.
  21. Springsteen was a great rocker, now he’s ready for one. Saw him last in 2016, another great show. Him and the rest, DeNiro, Hanks, etc…..their politics never bother me nor keep me from enjoying what they do as entertainers. People who think they’re relevant beyond that, well….whatever.
  22. Check out the cross pieces of the mastiff at about the 35 second mark:
  23. Amen Brother! In honor of Keon, Ullman, Henderson, Sittler, Salming and the rest of the Leafs I watched through a grainy TV with a roof top antenna, which my father risked his life going up there constantly adjusting it, way back then. You could barely make out the puck some nights. …..and who could not like Howie Meeker and Peter Puck?
  24. I never bemoaned being a Bills fan. I never had a bad time at a game. I never not drank at a game, except at the games my father took me to at War Memorial.
