That check I mailed is valid, gringo.

...never heard that one. Yes...I sit corrected.

You forgot to mention boner pill ads.

RIP...you are never forgotten. The U.S. Army site: http://www.army.mil/d-day/ And Maj. Sullivan Ballou's letter, penned before a battle during the Civil War: http://www.jayandmolly.com/ballouletter.shtml

Possibly even subscriptions. (Sorry, obie - I can't resist making a bad pun. )

1st Cincy championship in anything since 1990... Congrats to the Cyclones. They are a good bunch all around.

I forget to mention bubble gum. There's entertainment, when folks well into their cups are trying to blow bubbles.

It is...every time I purchase something in Hamilton County, OH with the knowledge that a cut of that pays for a free NFL stadium for Miser Mike.

Alexander showed up at the B'gal's door a while back, hat in hand. They weren't interested. He's from the greater Cincinnati area. Whenever his name shows up in the media, the impression I get is that he's not a favorite son. Not a crumb, but seemingly a fellow very much for himself.

A million-dollar body and a ten cent head. WCPO-TV, Cincinnati OH 06/06/08" "BURLINGTON, Ky. (AP) -- A woman has accused Cincinnati Bengals linebacker Ahmad Brooks of punching her in the face during an altercation in a northern Kentucky neighborhood last month. Brooks was ordered to appear June 6th in Boone District Court on a complaint filed this week by Destiny Rosich. Based on the complaint, prosecutors have charged Brooks with fourth-degree assault, a misdemeanor that carries up to a year in prison."... http://www.wcpo.com/news/local/story.aspx?...4a-e32b0131507f

You insulted my friend. Over and...out.

Ta,ta, VikingGumBoot.

They were getting away with nothing. Just a business deal selling a logo...If folks can't see that their lineup of MTD's, Troy-Builts, Cub Cadets etc. are the same thing, shame on them. Fact is, those products in general do the job asked of them. Their build quality, motors are suitable for the task. When they fail to give good service, its' usually because only a small percentage of buyers read the instruction/maintenance manual, and fewer still actually follow it.

I see your point, also. It's a reasoned one.

I understand perfectly!

Then you say Grace, and pick them up and Gobble on, Garth! Gee...

I am waiting for a new cryptic, PG. We have sparred for years so you owe me... get ur done!

The punter. A game's worth of good punting makes the opposing offense have to overcome an extra 100 yards or so. We can argue about yardage, true. But good punts without worthwhile return yards lays a task on the opponent.

Try this. While meat is cooking, lay out 4 dozen plain fry cake doughnuts. They are not sugar bombs like most doughnuts. The doughnut shops seldom sell them these days. Get them at a supermarket in a sleeve package; they are durable and age gracefully. Tasty, substantial, and not at all cloying. My 2 cents...

Debatable...and Ralph's staff were involved, too. Like any trade. RJ looked like the quarterback equivalent of a thoroughbred race horse at the time. I was long gone from WNY when he was traded for - so I defer to others. But I never got the impression that he was a slacker, a complainer or whiner. I do recall hearing some chat about Flutie not exactly adding positive, helpful things to the situation.

You have a good wife. By all means, show her how to mow. I involve my wife in all sorts of home maintenance tasks. I will croak sooner or later, and I want her to be prepared. She knows how to change oil, replace an automotive or a sump pump back-up battery and maintain same, wire a circuit, snake plumbing and replace traps, sand, paint, start the mower and how to mow safely, knows when to tighten this fitting within an inch of its' life, and when not to do for that one, and so on. And none of that is being condescending. It's simple transferring of necessary education. Teach your wife to mow. Which means safety glasses, gloves, long pants and boots. Nerdy? I suppose. But check out the injury stats - mower injuries are huge. I reside on a corner, so I have two "across the streets". Three young families - nice people, nice youngsters. Our neighborhood is hilly - down-dip driveways, or steep sloped lawns. I watch mowing, string trimming going on with tank tops and sandals, with their kids romping about. It's just a matter of time...

(80 + 30) X 7 = 840 points in the regular season. 840 / 16 games = 52.5 points per game. Wouldn't that be a sight to see? I happen to think that such a club would not get defeated in the playoffs...

Thanks as always, Mark. I saw a couple of the recent Indies...I'll comment when you post about them. P.S. Don't forget to see Stardust. It might be at the rental outfits by now. Charming flick. The Director, film crew and the cast all did a bang-up job.

Nice post. And BTW, your stage name is apt. Up goes the boulder, then...
