  1. This is great. Thanks for posting
  2. RIP Sly His segment in the Woodstock movie was a highlight of the movie for me.
  3. Annie Haslam of Renaissance. Killer voice. Longevity. Gorgeous
  4. I am in this club also. I was 9 when I first attended a game at The Rockpile and was amazed at how big the place was. Many of my WV buddies are Bills fans due to Darryl Talley.
  5. How can anyone from WNY forget this ?
  6. I have an EGO 21" mower with self propelled system. Much needed on the sloping lawn here in WV. On many occasions the mower will stop for an over heating issue with the battery and I have to remove, then re-insert the battery. The battery mowers are light and that is a plus. As is the lack of noise. The battery life and the high price of a replacement battery are big minuses in my opinion But if your lawn is small and flat, I'd go with the reel style mower.
  7. Like bigvinny said. When is the Bills game at Charlotte.
  8. Baseball. Great glove, terrible arm, poor hitter. I could catch anything but throwing to first base was a mystery. Snow skiing. Nope, just never could do that.
  9. The most popular game in HS. We played all the time, using a 2 and 3 for scoring. Alas, euchre was unheard of in Ohio where I went to college. And amongst my working cohorts, spades and hearts were the games. Now are there any cribbage enthusiasts out there ?
  10. Sidd Finch and his amazing fastball. What an arm !
  11. I was chief chemist in the lab at the plant. The plant manager asked if I could work from home. Sure, move the Xray analyzer and the ICP and the hot plates and fume hood and the various chemicals and install a 440V power line and we are good to go. My house is also one hour's drive from the plant. He was new and after I thoroughly explained what I did he never asked again. Mrs. Lew and I retired in June of 2020 as we had planned for a long time. WV was the last state to get covid, but the shutdowns of government and businesses were quick.
  12. Sure. Mrs. Lew and I co-habituated for two whole months before marriage.
  13. Went to two Summerfest concerts in 1974. First one was Eric Clapton, who was drunk out of his mind and performance was shaky Second one was ELP , James Gang and Lynryd Skynryd (sp?) ELP was great. We sat on the field in the middle of the quadrophonic sound system. Some peeps in front of us imbibed in several substances and one guy was gonna get sick. My buddy and I carried him to the First Aid area. The people did not want to move so my buddy said "I think this guy is gonna puke." And it was like the parting of the Red Sea. Favorite game event was when Jim Kelly's number was retired. At first it was thought Ralph was just gonna honor him in some fashion. When the big flag / banner with #12 on it came down the stadium, people were cheering like crazy. Taking my son in law to a game and him cooking on Kenny's Pinto was memorable. Going to TBD tail-gaiting at Hammer's Lot was always a treat.
  14. This August me and Mrs. Lew will celebrate our 50th anniversary. We were and still are HS sweethearts. LP class of '71 Going on a cruise.
