  1. Happy Birthday, Missus B! :worthy:
  2. In game #3 last season against SEA, the B'gals idiot OC Bob Bratkowski decided to run Johnson outside (!), against the 'hawks decent lbs. Sheer madness...Johnson was 17 for 9 yards and injured a hamstring. He returned after missing several games, was ineffective, and injured the other hamstring. He took only a very few snaps in camp, and did not play in any pre-season game.
  3. Anderson refused to take a pay cut - he gave the B'gals a counter offer, but CIN declined. He remains a good player - but after 11 seasons, he may well be a very useful part-timer for some club if he doesn't retire.
  4. U.S. Dept. of State international travel info and warnings: http://travel.state.gov/travel/cis_pa_tw/cis_pa_tw_1168.html
  5. Rookie mistake, robert. There is a forum set up for topics such as this; Politics, Poll, and Pundits.
  6. What job does her husband have with BP?
  7. "They love me! They really, really love me!" - Jim Carrey, in The Mask.
  8. So if TE gets a major award, we can expect a hold-out next season. Great.
  9. ...should be some good pun potential if Hanna strikes Barbados.
  10. Oh. So you weren't telling me to go to fly away somewhere, then. What was that old Bob & Ray line? Something like..."We welcome you to the annual meeting of the Americans Against All Acronyms, a.k.a. the AAAA."
  11. Meacham Field in Ft. Worth, TX?
  12. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heat_capacity#Heat_capacity Air doesn't transmit heat as much as water. That's why insulation in say, your house, or a jacket, is a media that traps air.
  13. Happy B'Day, Gents!
  14. Between that, and folks having i Pods stuck in their ears all day long, I've felt for a long time that audiology would be a good field for young people to pursue.
  15. Bank or spend some nice coin for a short-term part-time job? He wasn't laboring for minimum wage, hogging out grease traps.
  16. You've invoked a reminiscence. I spent time in Alabama, a long, long time ago. That waving was pretty commonplace there, then, which I found charming.
  17. True. Parents in a snit with their "Unfair!" mentality, biting their nails. I'd speculate that when they were young, they were carted around in a vehicle sporting one of those "Baby on Board" signs.
  18. The crumbs usually drive junkers, not high-priced SUVs.
  19. Keep your foot on the brake pedal, and wave 'em on. Most all are just being courteous, but some are setting you up for a crash and a phony insurance claim. Never prematurely cut into a marked turning lane, either. I was once pulled over by a local policeman for doing that. No ticket - he told me that there are crumbs out there who love to see such and then legally enter the lane causing a crash so they can run a scam.
  20. NFL football is a four act play that's been running for about 90 years. Two ought to be enough...a "just the facts, Ma'am" chap and an "outrageous opinionated jacka**" joker.
  21. Right. Please pencil me in on your list of pet peeves.
  22. That is certainly the case here in Cincinnati. I'm not concerned about sports coverage - I am concerned about the reductions in the local print media staff. The local reporters who go out and attend the school board meetings, city council meetings, county government meetings, and bring dubious dealings into the light of day. Blogs, electronic media, are not nearly as effective as - to use a popular phrase - "boots on the ground".
  23. Crazy scores, go-thru-the motions. Vets not ready, injuries, etc. Dunno...union action, won't play hard until I have to...? It seems different this year.
