SF Bills Fan

Well, we got HSBC and the improvements to RWS from the state. That was approaching $200 million.

Battlestar is great. I watched the old series when I was little, and I remeber liking it, but it was pretty cheesy. This one is a lot more gritty and the acting is very good especially Edward James Olmos as Adama. BTW- He might be the first hispanic in TV space. The special effects are top notch. I usually am not home on Friday at 10pm, but they replay it on Monday too. I've seen every episode. Lost, 24 and Battlestar are the only shows I regularly watch.

Joe Klecko of the Jets.

Can't wait. This one looks great.

The Amityville Horror trailer makes it look like they have gone the way of recent horror movies like the Ring and the Grudge. You know, sudden flashes involving "scary" kid ghosts. I can't stand that stuff, it isn't shocking or scary. Hitchhiker will be great, I think. I'm looking forward to that more than Sin City.

I've always been a fan of Eckls in OP. They were the standard for years. I've never had Schwabls or any other, so I can't do a comparison.

He and Isiah Robertson were pals, but they were getting in fights at bars all the time, with each other for years. It was always in the OP police blotter. He was all jacked up on the juice. This is no surprise. It would be cool if he didn't pull a Canseco and shut up right now before he really names names.

This kind of stuff might be part of the reason he isn't in Canton.

She'll get millions for that.

In high school, we'd have awesome parties in the woods around Eagle Heights in OP. It was like the party in Dazed and Confused. Then we'd go to Your Host in East Aurora around 3 am. Everyting on the menu was like $2. Great late night hang out place. I always felt sorry for the poor waitress that would work like a mule and made like .25 cents tip off our drunk asses.

Henry's was the place I was thinking of. It was near the fireplace at the Seneca mall. They had little fried onion nuggets. Great stuff.

Ha. I remember every album you just named except Stevie Nicks. I had all of them exept that one and Kenny Rogers.

Yeah, there was a whole row of them. 6 in a row on one side, 2 across the way. If you were going to sneak in with friends, you had to really hope that your movie wasn't in 1 of the two theatres across the way.

Yeah, the theatres were the last thing alive there. They were still going when I had moved out to California. They called it Appletree Mall then. Now it's Appletree business center, I think. I would have killed to see the origianl Dawn of the Dead in the theatres. Especially at a mall like that were it was very appropriate. I remember tricking my mom into renting it for me when I was like 12. I scared the crap out of myself watching that movie. It still stands as my favorite horror movie of all time. I wath it at least 2-3 times a year. Always once at Halloween. Romero deserves a medal for greatness.

Ground Round was great. That was a big thing for us when we were little and had birthday parties. We'd all go to Ground Round for dinner and then a movie. They always had Laural and Hardy or the Stooges on a screen at the Ground Round, popcorn all over the place. They had a video game room with Space Invaders and all the "high tech" games. It must have been a nightmare to clean that place.

Yeah, that was a crazy looking fireplace- totally out of a 70's ski chalet. What the hell was it doing there? That was where all the tough kids seemed to congregate I recall. There was a burger place near there too, I used to demand my mom take me there. Good stuff.

I thought Spencer was a Buffalo thing. I've never seen one here in the Bay Area.

I remember Como had the discount movies in the end. They were $2-3 at most. I remember it was an easy theatre to sneak into even when it was first run. It had an exit at the end of the row of theatres. No guard ever. You could walk int and open the door and your friends could come in. I think I saw my first R rated move there - Bachelor Party. Snuck in, of course. That mall still stands, it's a big business park now.

Potter Road. Didn't that go all the way into OP? I think there were kids I went to elementary school with that lived on Potter. I remember those stone animal statues near that big 70's style fireplace in the central area of the Seneca mall. I saw many movies there when I was younger. Back in the day, that was the mall for the southtowns. There was that, Como, Eastern Hills (I still have no idea where that one is) and another somewhere in the Williamsville/Amherst area. I forgot the name.

Anyone remember Spencer Gifts? I used to sneak into the one at the Seneca Mall (RIP Seneca Mall) when I was little and shopping with my mom. I'd go to the poster area and flip through the posters praying for a few posters with topless chicks in there. There always were. Then I'd get busted. Good times..good times....

They were at 10-1 when I was in Tahoe at Ceasars earlier in the year, when we got rid of Drew, they dropped.

I've been suffering from serious withdrawl over this show. I missed the last one before they went into repeat too. It's the only one I haven't seen so far. I love the women on that show. I'm obsessed with that show. I can't explain it.

It boggles my mind when I hear about things like that.

The reason many of are here, is because our ancestors left their sheds in Europe for the promise of bigger sheds here.
