  1. Just an hour ? Stay there and don't come upstairs till you have the whole damn thing working. After all the game is tomorrow and you don't want to be watching it on a microscopic TV, do you ?
  2. Wow. Is it safe to say that half your home's equity now resides in the basement ? Sometime in the future I will get your opinion on the Panny pj. I have the SP4805.
  3. Which pj ? Which speakers ? Which receiver ? We need details, man....
  4. If we are classified as a civilized and mature society, isn't it supposed to withstand such calamities in a more organized fashion ? If human behavior degenerates to such low levels how can the society, made up of such human beings, classify itself as superior ? What credibility do we have when we go to seemingly less developed countries and espouse our way of living ? The concept of happiness is not directly related to material wealth and carnal pleasures in all parts of the world.
  5. Squabbling over Nate ? Go find some nice chick to fight over.
  6. Looks like you are SOL, brother. I feel for you. Only suggestions I can give are: Do you need to lug all the tools and material everytime ? Or is it too much of a pain loading and unloading just what you need ? Also, can you schedule your jobs so that you are not driving the same path twice ? Finally, can you concentrate your selling effort in a certain area only so you get more job wins and less driving between them ?
  7. Let us reserve judgment on the experts till after the game, shall we ?
  8. Problem with govt. intervention is two fold: it undermines the market forces at work and is hence sub-optimal to the economy as a whole. Secondly, any concessions provided come from our tax $ anyway. So either we end up paying more taxes or lose some other benefit.
  9. Probably because NC is not a rising star but is already a star. I think he is playing at his peak. I was surprised not to see Lee Evans in the list.
  10. Based on what ? I saw most of the game versus the Eagles and I think the Eagles beat themselves with dropped passes. Having said that I want us to be underdogs througout this season and until we are in the playoffs. I also said that if we beat the Bucs, we should not have a problem with the Falcons. What I meant is that beating the Bucs will indicate that we are not pretenders but can actually beat a good D on the road. Having done that, a home game against a team that is weak in the secondary should be easier to win.
  11. Try some of the mroe aged scotches straight up - no ice. A (wealthy) friend has Johnny Walker Green label when he has us over and I exclusively drink that. Typically, I make myself the designated driver for those visits so I don't consume in huge quantities, thus enjoying every sip.
  12. Agreed, that is why even though it makes our job easier, we shouldn't celebrate.
  13. Looks like our passing game will have an easier task Sept. 25th. If we beat the Bucs this week, we should not have a problem with the Falcons considering they are coming to our house: http://sports.yahoo.com/nfl/news?slug=ap-f...ov=ap&type=lgns
  14. What has really been exposed is our weak societal structure. How the residents rapidly became looters, arsonists and (neighbor's) back stabbers is the real tragedy. http://www.stadiumwall.com/index.php?showtopic=29314
  15. Read this thread, in particular posts by me, phillburger1 and Crap Throwing Monkey. Only place where government is involved is in causing uncertainty due to our Middle East involvement. But fundamental reasons are gasoline demand crossing the supply limit in the US in 2005. We were on the edge in 2004. Stop advocating govt. intervention in markets. http://www.stadiumwall.com/index.php?showtopic=28164
  16. Considering all that has been posted, I believe that if we win the turnover battle and not stall in the red zone (FGs are okay), we will kick the living daylights out of TB.
  17. have you been stalking him all these years to find this article ?
  18. That I have to agree with.
  19. Yes, but .. we also were very excited at the start of the Drew Bledsoe era. I am sure we are all thinking the same as NE fans were when we got him from the Pats, "Just see what happens after he has played 8 games .."
  20. I was amused to see that fan sign saying "Superbowl, here we come".
  21. I was in UB 1989-91 and we used to frequent Brew Pub for the beer and peanut (shells on floor). I have some very fond memories - thank you for reminding me of that place.
  22. Fair enough. I just don't think we on this board should play down a victory and leave that to the media.
  23. So by your logic, we are now 'supposed to win' against TB. So if we do end up winning, it will not qualify as a 'true' victory correct ? By your standards, we are winners only if we beat NE ?? Stop the negativity and enjoy the win.
  24. Okay, it is too early to call any team a bottom-feeder. As of now half the league is 0-1. I don't agree that we were supposed to win. In any case, does that reduce the importance of our win ? Just savor the victory and admire what we did.
