  1. Wife called me over, freaked out by a large black spider she almost touched...looked suspicious, so I prodded it a bit with a stick and got it to flip over...

     

    Here's what I saw

     

    Damn, that'll make me think twice next time I do yardwork...

    The widows are pretty common out here like Sanners said

     

    It's the brown recluse that you have to watch out for ! :w00t:

  2. We were just able to get a cell phone call from our daughter in WPB - not far from the airport, She is in my sister's (well built) house with storm shutters. There are about 8 people there and various pets. Power has been out since about 7 PM Friday and I was surprised the cell towers still work. Her word about the action was "terrifying" and some trees are down in the neighborhood but no houses are compromised (yet). It was also noted that the pets were not doing well but the adults had alcohol available - maybe the pets ?

    Gotta love coach speak - DF makes a big bonus by landing on the 55-man roster

     

    Marty S. speaks

     

    "Asked about a trade, he said, "Anything's possible, but at this point in time there's been no dialogue with respect to any of our quarterbacks."

     

    That includes Flutie, who yesterday was rumored to be headed to the waiver wire and, eventually, New England.

     

    "Where in the world does this stuff come from?" Schottenheimer said.

     

    So there's no truth to the rumor?

     

    "None. Not an iota of truth."

     

    He'll be on the roster?

     

    "He will . . . In the interest of accuracy, you don't have anything in that regard. It's kind of amusing, to be very honest with you."

  4. Here's a good question for all the PPPers.  Which honey could make you switch from conservative to liberal or vice versa?  If no one could, which one would you like to have give it a try?

    The women doesn't exist

     

    Maybe, if the conjecture about Limbaugh has any basis <_< -

     

    opposites attract

     

    i.e. : Maitlin & Carville

  5. If you have some spare time this weekend - visit your library or bookstore and pick up the "Sports Illustrated - 50 Years of Great Writing" compilation.

     

    There are many classic stories but one from the football realm is Frank Deford's tribute to Johnny Unitas - "The Best There Ever Was".

     

    The grand finale -

     

    "I know there have been wonderful quaterbacks since Unitas hung up his hightops. I admit, I'm prejudiced. But the best quarterback ever? The best player?

    Let me put it this way: If there one game scheduled, Earth versus the Klingons, with the fate of the universe on the line, any person with his wits about him would have Johnny U. calling the signals in the huddle, up under the center, back in the pocket."

     

     

    The selection on Secretariat, "Pure Heart" by William Nack is also a keeper.

     

    Have a safe weekend !

  6. for anyone intrested the best place { other than the ralph } to watch a bills game is m.t. pockets on hertel ave. good food great site lines to the tvs and football people with the passion for the bills.

    Gecko's (down the street) has better TV's and food - but does MT Pockets still have Roxie behind the bar ?
