  1. Schrader, I had never seen you're from Boston NY... get lost there during a snow storm on my way to Eden NY back in 93... ended in a ditch of a "closed for the winter" rural road (the road was going down a hill, almost passed thru on ice and fresh snow before sliding in the last curve!!) , a nice little old woman form Lituania helped me and host me while i waited for a tow truck...
  2. you should add the Denver area, Wisconsin and the Dakotas
  3. whatever you call it, those political analysis based on history are b...s... , elections (and before all presidential ones) are won with charisma, emotions and momentum, nothing that can be repeated, analysed or simply explained in rational ways. "the meeting of a man and the people" as the presidential elections are called around here sometimes is not a science
  4. If politics were a science we 'd not need elections...
  5. On TV i'd take the baseball game most of the time.... but Playoffs Hockey is must see TV!
  6. I wish they could all go into the 3rd OT.!!! Great to wake up, put the TV on and watch the end of such a great game eating your breakfast !!!
  7. Did not know about that game... Santander is just about 2 hours from here... too bad it's tomorrow and can not change my plans now ...it'd have been nice to go ...
  8. Living in the most american hating country in Europe (and one that know a few things about freedom) i can tell you you're completly wrong thinking this.
  9. There was a great documentary about Bob Kennedy on french TV last night. Very interesting. Lot of things i did not know about him. Incredible charisma and without the movie star look of JF... Made me think his death has been probably more important than his brother's ...
  10. D Roy had 3 goals and 3 assists yesterday beating Norway and qualifying Canada for the semies... Looks like the Finland-USA game was a real thriller...
  11. 46% (Yankee). Barely into the Yankee category.
  12. I think the headquarters are in Germany... they must exist for about 40-50 years and it's about as big as Lego here in Europe, with an almost cult-like following ... i wish i had kept all the ones i had as a kid for my son...
  13. now that's a question i ask myself about ten times per day... and the worse is not even the motherment, is that they make us pay a lot of money for that and a vast majority of people is asking for more of it!!
  14. I like the Pistons AND the Celtics... and as long as the Lakers don't win the title i'll be OK...
  15. Do i count if my son pulled a gun on me? My two years old one just did with his Playmobil pirate figurine!! (makes me wonder if Playmobils exist in the US...)
  16. By the way, is the new Eagles album any good?
  17. i know but they have those incredible girls in their videos...
  18. i don't know what you all have with those "piss bombs"... i wish they only had that kind of stuff... the ones we have have baseball bats, iron bars, alarm pistols, bengal fires and never go in groups of less than 50 people... http://www.fight-vids.co.uk/category-12/hooligans.html
  19. Why did they mess up with a private sector system they have no real clue about? If they wanted to help low income kids to go to college why didn't they use the same amount of money that mess was supposed to cost and give it directly to the kids through scholarships?!!
  20. Et toi je t'emmerde. Les habitants de la Nouvelle Angleterre méritent tout autant le respect que n'importe qui. Ce n'est pas par ce que tu ecris ici en français que ça te donne le droit d'insulter plusieurs millions de personnes.
  21. you have no idea what are "hated fans on the planet "...
  22. Like what? Post stupid messages on football fans forums?
  23. what can of soil do you have? Rhodos need poor acid soils... if your garden's soil is too rich you'd better add some special one you'll find in any garden store.
  24. i don't really find this as funny as some of you... probably because i have seen too much of those dramas in european soccer. I wish this is not the first sign of bigger things to come for US Sports....
  25. Who makes money? Chelsea's owner makes a lot... Chelsea FC? the way they handle their players and coaches (overpaying and "overfiring") I doubt they make a penny...
