Guffalo

Skip trying to paint it, look for a wrap to cover the dings and scratches

There was one on Sheridan Drive, Get me a Barnbuster!! (That wasn't a banana)

Countdown to porcelain shattering projectiles

The seats across the aisle from you were up for grabs when I was looking, I like sitting at row 32 just above you. Shorter run to the bathroom, and cant beat the aisle.

I didn't see anything that impressed me. I used to love our old seats in 331, second row, on the aisle. Great view from up there.

Wife's 60th birthday was this weekend, and we were supposed to go to Italy for 10 days, all cancelled. Still trying to figure out something special for her.

Sorry to hear you lost one of your stones....

Thats my biggest concern, the team that tanks for Lawrence will have a short trip to the basement followed by a long time in the penthouse. The kid is a generational talent that should be do quite well for a long time as long as the team who gets him builds a line around him. He can make guys around him look good.

I would think a fan base that drinks from bowling balls and buttcracks would be relatively immune to the latest virus, but I'm not a doctor

We lived in Kenmore so we would alternate between Pats , Teds and Louies at the foot of Sheridan. Louies is still there, still one of the best but for this poll, I picked Teds as best.

We cancelled a trip to Italy for Mid April, still trying to get the airlines straightened out, we have a certain drop dead date to re-book of mid March, with travel by November (when we made the original reservation) otherwise we need to pay a rebooking fee of $150 per seat. Hotels were ok with cancellations, yet for some reason the trip to the Vatican is not refunding money right now. Our other side trips have been reasonable with refunds. We hope the Bills schedule gives us the SF game early in the season so we can use the flights for that trip.

If you see the writers picture, it looks like he is writing for the High School newspaper and seems he is a bit jealous.

I remember a similar thing. We pulled up and all got out of the car and as we headed for the gates I watched as my dad was looking back at the car and saw a guy placing bumper stickers on every car in the row. He stops and jogged (I never EVER saw him run) back and starts yelling at the guy telling him in no uncertain terms that he does not want a bumper sticker, nor does he want any Fantasy Island advertising anywhere near his car or kids (I guess dad didnt have the Fantasy Island account or something). I had never seen him get worked up over something so trivial.

The young picture of Kaley does remind me of Julie Bowen from Modern Family (Claire Dunphy)

Have fun!!

Why do I get the image of Aunt Bea wandering along the streets of Mayberry stopping in various places while Fergy is the Andy Griffith of the story. You need a Barney Fife to put this woman in her place.

Pretty much the same for me, hugs and an awkward back pat until he got used to the new norm, still wish I could get one....

So Sorry to hear Limeaid, but you can know she is at peace, your memories will stay forever.

Breckenridge has some nice skiing, but as others said, try to get to Aspen if you can for some nice bowl skiing. Breckenridge has some nice glade skiing as well as some nice cruisers. I don't recall a lot of bowls when there. Stash away for another trip, Jackson Hole is a nice trip, great bowl skiing, but if you go, carve out some time for the backside of the Tetons, Grand Targhee is a smaller (but still big) mountain about an hour away. We had 2 epic days there a few years ago. When we got to the condo at the end of the day, the people that skiied Jackson Hole were beat from sloppy conditions, meanwhile we had great, crisp powder, great terrain, bowls and spines that are just breathtaking. An awesome side trip if you are in the area. The only problem is you need to go through the Teton pass, which can get closed from time to time due to avalanches.

My uncle used to teach there (he was a priest) when it was St. John Vienny seminary. As kids he would take us for weekends when there were breaks (no students) We would get our own dorm room, use of the facilities, the lake was awesome for a kid. After his funeral I dragged my siblings there to see it one last time. Still seemed like a huge place when we saw it back in 2000.

We have a challenge ahead of us. We currently live on Long Island, high taxes, high cost of living. I have been here since 1982 since my wife is from here. As we start to look at retirement options, I would like to move back to WNY or at least CNY if I could find the right option. Our daughter is going to be staying in Long Island, since she is in the nursing field and established. Her boyfriend has just become a county cop last year. Any move we make will require to be within 1 day driving distance or the wife will balk at moving. I was hoping for something with reasonable taxes (ours are astronomical at 13K between county and school) where we could maybe spend May to November, then go south for December to end of April. As I look at Buffalo real estate I, usually look for something in the downtown or Elmwood village areas, where I can have access to the waterfront or other activities there. I have noticed the prices have been moving up dramatically over the past year. I usually search 2 bed 2 bath condos/townhouses since we will be vacant part of the year. It is now gone from 190's to well over 225 in the last 9 months. I had been saving the emails, and some places have jumped 20K in a year. Are people flipping stuff that quick? Are people speculating on a downtown stadium and scooping up properties?

Kyle Orton and his 2 yard short slide, that showed he was in it for a paycheck. He could have still gotten the first down and slid without damage, but he stopped dead in his tracks and gave up.

Sorry for your loss. I am not an expert, but if he has a will in place, I would think that could set forth the final wishes of your Dad. If he had made arangements or agreements with the elder advocate as to his final decisions, I would ask her for copies of such agreements. Are there any siblings that may have copies of the agreements or the will? Did he have a local attorney down there that would have filed a will and guardianship documents? Thats where I would start. I would also follow my "spidey senses" and take a trip down there to check in on any other things that the nursing home may need to close out his account, and to retrieve any items he may have left behind.

Happy Birthday to the Gugniest of the Gugnys!

Charming
