  1. I hate sweet stuff as an adult.  I admit it.  I like salty, and in particular spicy, like really, really spicy.

     

    Having written that, I was such a fan of the chocolate-on-chocolate Pop-Tart.

     

    Can't eat such things anymore, as while I'm 6'6", I also hit 300lbs during the height of the pandemic.  Still, fond memories...

     

  2. If the Bills didn't have JA17, this would be a trash heap of a sports empire like all the rest.

     

    Both teams need a new HC, but the Sabres more desperately so.  However, I don't think that's the game being played here.

     

    Certainly, and over the past decade, I've seen worse Sabres' teams.  We all have.  But this one, or at least on some level, is more brutal -- because they should be a LOT better, and yet they aren't.

  3. When I first heard this -- it was midday yesterday and I was eating a sandwich -- I laughed because all I read was that a former Jaguars' employee was sentenced to prison for hacking servers and creating disturbances on the scoreboard during games or somesuch.  Was this a Turk 182 thing?

     

    By checking news at the end of my day, it became apparent that this was worse, like much, much worse.  It's incredible to me that people like these are able to walk freely in our society, and for lengthy of a period of time.

    What exactly does “sportif” mean on Craigslist?

    I should really check.  I'm a tech guy and used to write these programs to harvest the personals and index them in a database -- because they were hilarious.  Maybe I'll restore the database someday and see if I can find the term.  A friend of mine and I once wrote a spoof (20+ years ago) of the dating site eHarmony, but instead of seeding it with the sauce that eHarmony put into their matching system, we used the data from Craigs', and to hilarious (if not unexpected) results.

     

    Top Craigs' keywords from personals ads, if I recall:

      - beach

      - hands

      - cats

      - BBW

      - signs

     

  5. Phantogram.  Wife and I saw them open for QOTSA in August 2023.

     

    I totally missed the boat on this band.  It's gorgeous, like all of the outrageous "shoegaze" stuff that inspired me as a listener and a player in the 1980s and 1990s.

    I could see him waking up in bed next to Suzie, breaking the 4th wall and screaming.

    I think that you may have written the script!  HAHA

     

    I hope that's not the case, but could be.

     

    The Suzie frien-emy thing has always been fascinating to me.

     

    "Porno Gil"

     

    The episode with Suzie and her counterfeit NFL sweaters.

     

    It's so much (and also hilarious)!

  7. Maybe there's overlap here, but...

     

    The Mac (Apple) SB commercial remains a favorite.

     

    My mother (RIP), who hated all rock 'n' roll and/or any kind of loud music -- would sing along with "Relax" by Frankie goes to Hollywood.  I'm pretty sure that she was (willfully) blind to what the song was about.  Actually, having grown up in a conservative household, the light didn't go on with me about that tune until I was probably mid-20s.  I guffawed when it did.  Mom sang along with "Relax"?  HAHA.

     

    The 14 Rock Cowgirl.

     

    Joe Theissman's leg.  Ugh.  So ugly.  Since I'd been doing well in school, dad let me watch that game (usually not allowed to stay up late).  And that happened.

     

    The original Top Gun.  Classic.  Rambo I & II?  Yes, please.

     

    Geraldo and Al Capone's vault?

     

    The Bear's Super Bowl Shuffle (hated it).

     

    ZZ Top doing ZZ Top things.  Their beards and classic cars remain a favorite.

     

    Where's the Beef?

     

    The odd Honda scooter commercial with Grace Jones and (was it?) Adam Ant?

     

    Devo (one of my favorite bands ever; I used to hide their tapes in the crawlspace so that they would not be confiscated).

     

    Richard Simmons.

     

    The 20-minute workout.  Maybe it was a regional thing.  At first my mother thought that they were sluts, but once we told her that they were from Toronto -- she thought that the show was fine (she always felt that people from Canada were abnormally nice, which is somewhat true) so long as my sister and I lost weight as a result of the aerobics.  As an early teen, I was not in it for the aerobics.

     

    Madonna.  A classmate of mine once changed the vertical display on the TV and tracking on the VCR to see if he could look up Madonna's shirt in the "Lucky Star" video.  Otherwise, I can't stand Madonna.

     

    Risky Business is hilarious and remains a favorite.  Plus, Rebecca DeMornay... *growl*

     

    Frankie Say Relax.  I saved this t-shirt and wore it on laundry day -- until it reached full nip slippage... in 1998.

     

    Ocean Pacific.

     

    So much more.  What a trip down memory lane!

  8. MLB.  Red Sox.  In fact, it was my first major league game -- back in 1995.  They suck once again, and probably always will, now that ownership doesn't want to spend anymore, and now that they are spending again consistently do so foolishly.  I can't quibble with 4 championships in my lifetime, so here I am, but again, they suck.  The Boston Bisons were my gateway drug to baseball; having grown up in the region I became obsessed as a teen when they built "Pilot Field".

     

    NBA.  I enjoy watching games, but I don't have a team.

     

  9. My wife and I have been enjoying this last season (2 seasons prior w John Hamm were hilarious) and remarked just last night that Richard Lewis looked like hell.  Ugh, the death.

     

    In the end, I somehow think that series will end the same as Seinfeld -- with Larry in jail for 1 year.

     

  10. Just throwing this out there, but JA17 isn't the problem.  Best QB I've seen with this team in the 45+ years that I've been following them.  Yeah, he's ***** at times, but Kelly was also majorly ***** at times.  JA17 is a stud.

     

    It's the coach.  Maybe he learns while he has a viable QB.  Or maybe he does not.  Here's to a productive 2024-2025 season.

    Have a 1 lb ribeye from local butcher in the sous vide right now.  Will finish by searing and butter basting in a hot cast iron pan (looking for crust finish) rest for 5-10 minutes. Potatoes rubbed in olive oil are baking. Then adding a side salad.  If we went out somewhere this would be $100+ easily for the two of us.  Significantly less money to do it at home.   

    On the edge of my seat, well, a few weeks later.  How did it turn out?
