  1. Today being Pancake Day , Paczki Day to some, Shrove Tuesday for others, will you have Pancakes or Paczki today, and what will you give up for Lent? What do you put on your Pancakes. Butter, Maple Syrup, Apple Butter, Jam? Raspberry Paczki's ? perhaps Cherry?
  2. recall it being Susan Boyle like in that initially had no idea man had such a wonderful voice....
  3. Burt Bacharach and Hal David.... Bacharach and David
  4. Eagles great choice, B B King with Eric Clapton and Buddy Guy, or David Bowie.
  5. He does say, Allegations are not true.... "The accusations are especially hurtful because those who truly know me know that those actions would be out of character for me. Miss Harris is the mother of my son, a son that I love and that I willingly support emotionally and financially. I will address this matter thoroughly through the appropriate avenues, but not through the media." - at this point one can choose as to who to believe....
  6. One Step at a Time by Joseph Morris In the morning with the journey all before us on the road, It takes courage to begin, that is sure; For the first step is the hardest, and we always think the load May be greater than we've power to endure. When the first mile lies behind us we can say, "Now that is done, And the second and the third will soon be past." So we trudge on through the noontime, and the setting of the sun Finds us coming to our stopping-place at last. When a man would climb a mountain he's appalled to see the length Of the slope that reaches up into the sky; But he starts, and with the climbing he will find he's gained the strength To attain the very top, however high. For the climbing of a mountain takes but one step at a time-- Who has courage to do that will reach the goal; He will stand upon Life's summit and will know that joy sublime Which is his alone who dares to prove his soul. -one step at a time , you are not alone John, many think well of you and do pray
  7. he certainly is a healthy looking man....
  8. Both Tim and yourself Mr. Wawrow make the wall a better place. To both of your credit neither hide behind anonymity as such both of you have targets on your backs. At least by this person you are very much appreciated.
  9. Father called for news conference at 10:00 am this morning, promised big announcement that would answer all questions. He comes out at noon with box saying he wants people to place all questions in the box he will have another news conference at 7:00 pm tonight. Media would do well to pack up, not give this man anymore attention. Let authorities deal with him. ,
  10. LA i believe had it right. You need stand up for yourself and not be so concerned what these folk are thinking. Clearly they are going to give you a attitude if you seem susceptible. Simply make it clear you are just as they are and would like some help with the gas money to get groceries. That could be bartered somewhat, its in order they chip in with a case of beer or decent meal out on them. Be a decent honest person, tell the person giving out your beer it can't happen anymore or he will pay for it, you can't afford it. Given the situation, perhaps get speaking with other students, got to believe with some patience you should be able to find another person to take over your part of lease. Don't get all huffy, just stand your ground, if you don't get any results, relax, make some friends , enjoy your time, find another to take over your lease, plenty of young people are coming in and out of your environment.
  11. after all that Mr. Tedy Lacap Bruschi has done to encourage, motivate and charm he is overlooked once more.... outrage...
  12. "Great Pumpkin".. we all need go to our pumpkin patch and wait patiently , only hope now.

  14. just a bored old man making a post... rainy day. Nice of you to say hello. Will admit to watching this today in spite of fortunes of our team at present , I say nuts to it why let it get us down
  15. Obituary ’Today we mourn the passing of a beloved old friend, Common Sense, who has been with us for many years. No one knows for sure how old he was, since his birth records were long ago lost in bureaucratic red tape. He will be remembered as having cultivated such valuable lessons as: Knowing when to come in out of the rain; why the early bird gets the worm; Life isn’t always fair; and maybe it was my fault. Common Sense lived by simple, sound financial policies (don’t spend more than you can earn) and reliable strategies (adults, not children, are in charge). His health began to deteriorate rapidly when well-intentioned but overbearing regulations were set in place. Reports of a 6-year-old boy charged with sexual harassment for kissing a classmate; teens suspended from school for using mouthwash after lunch; and a teacher fired for reprimanding an unruly student, only worsened his condition. Common Sense lost ground when parents attacked teachers for doing the job that they themselves had failed to do in disciplining their unruly children. It declined even further when schools were required to get parental consent to administer sun lotion or an Elastoplast to a student; but could not inform parents when a student became pregnant and wanted to have an abortion. Common Sense lost the will to live as the Ten Commandments became contraband; churches became businesses; and criminals received better treatment than their victims. Common Sense took a beating when you couldn’t defend yourself from a burglar in your own home and the burglar could sue you for assault. Common Sense finally gave up the will to live, after a woman failed to realize that a steaming cup of coffee was hot. She spilled a little in her lap, and was promptly awarded a huge settlement. Common Sense was preceded in death by his parents, Truth and Trust; his wife, Discretion; his daughter, Responsibility; and his son, Reason. He is survived by his 4 stepbrothers; I Know My Rights, I Want It Now, Someone Else Is To Blame, and I’m A Victim. Not many attended his funeral because so few realized he was gone. If you still remember him, pass this on. If not, join the majority and do nothing.’ And a little extra…………………… Can you imagine working for a company that has a little more than 600 employees and has the following statistics? 29 have been accused of spouse abuse 7 have been arrested for fraud 19 have been accused of writing bad cheques 117 have directly or indirectly bankrupted at least 2 businesses 3 have done time for assault 71 cannot get a credit card due to bad credit 4 have been arrested on drug-related charges 8 have been arrested for shoplifting 21 are currently defendants in lawsuits 84 have been arrested for drink driving in the last year Which organization is this? ================== It’s the 635 members of the House of Commons, the same group that cranks out hundreds of new laws each year designed to keep the rest of us in line. How do you think our US Congress would stack up? How about your state legislatures? Makes you wonder how we got as far as we have. Makes you wonder how we got as far as we have.
  16. Microsoft Essentials Has been available in Beta form for some for awhile, final version out today. Personally don't use it happy with Avast, but no harm in taking look at new product. Reviews suggest in good, but need to improve speed. One Review
  17. $65000 Yankee Tickets Good God, wonder what he/she will want for World Series tickets. $130,000 for a pair. Just about as much as one of TO's earrings....
  18. If TO would lend his coach one of his $140,000 Diamond earrings to go along with hoodie and shades nothing would stop them. Of course he would need to step it up with a gold tooth for playoffs .
  19. WGR 550 , Sports Station of The Year Marconi Award Winner (take note of award winner categories and list)
  20. Still a few hours of Summer 2009 remain, Fall begins officially, on East Coast September 22 5:18 pm
  21. I wonder if "No Huddle" is written in stone. Would appear against a team like New Orleans, they want to keep the ball away from them as much as possible. A standard offense that controls ball, eats time combined with a rainy day might be best option for upcoming game. Giving Saints ball recipe for a fifty spot and full wall implosion.
  22. Moon River from Breakfast at Tiffany's
