  1. Popcorn balls were a favorite in my neighborhood also.
  2. Snickers Mallo Cups After filling up the pillow cases, we'd go to one of our neighbors who had a huge picnic table and deck area. There we feasted on DiCamillo donuts, hot chocolate or apple cider. Many candy exchanges occurred at this table.
  3. Studio: Quadrophenia Lamb Lies Down on Broadway Chicago II Layla and Other Assorted Love Songs Live in Concert Yessongs All The Worlds A Stage Chicago IV Renaissance at Carnegie Hall Welcome Back My Friends...ELP Seconds Out
  4. Bonnie and Clyde . Faye Dunaway , Waren Beatty and Gene Hackman or Straw Dogs with Dustin Hoffman
  5. We saw Ringo Starr and his All Star band last night. My 10 year old grandson ( an avowed Beatles fan ) loved the concert as did all the AARP+ members of the audience. I knew Edgar Winter was a great musician and last night proved that by leaps and bounds. Wow he was good. It was a fun concert and it will be my last time dealing with Ticketmaster. If not for the fine people in the ticket office our night would have been ruined. Instead of 5 seats together in a row, ticketmaster sent us 5 seats in 5 different rows. AARRGGHHHHHHHHHHHH. And tickets on the cell phone are an abomination. Yes, I'm old and get off my lawn
  6. Scotty Kilmer and his automotive show. He's originally from Lewiston NY.
  7. Team USA needs Marv Levy to come to Rome and give the boys a pep talk similar to the one given on Jan 3, 1993. We all remember THAT comeback. Perhaps Team USA can make the greatest comebacks in Ryder Cup history. 5:30 AM on NBC on Sunday.
  8. Brooks was the greatest third baseman. Great glove, arm and bat. RIP
  9. Watch any game from SoFi stadium, shared home of the Rams and Chargers. It always seems the visitors out numbers and out cheers the 'hometown' fans. My friend was at the Wash..Bills contest and he was amazed at the size and the loudness of the Bill's fans.
  10. I like PTI and its the only show I watch. I really miss Mike & Mike.
  11. To OP. Congrats on becoming a sports official for HS sports. It is a great time commitment but there is a lot of fulfilment that comes with it. I have officiated HS soccer for 20 years but this year I am taking a pause in the action and will mentor the young ones. My knees are a mess and replacement is imminent. In that time I have only had one 'encounter' and it was mild. A lady fan of the worst team in the area offered me her glasses after one match. Listening to the fans is one thing I tell the new referees NOT to do. Few of them played soccer, so they generally are not aware of what they are yelling about. Alas, football is different as everyone in the stands thinks they are Ed Hochuli. Advice. Know the rules intimately and be confident of your calls. That will reduce fan's abuse.
  12. Like others have said, Get Fitted. I did that and it will make a difference.
  13. Hyde Park was a fun course to play when my buddies and I just started to play as juniors. We drank milkshakes after the round while waiting for one of our mom's to pick us up. I still have the putter.
  14. That is one of my favorite movies. Alan Arkin was great in this and so many other flicks. RIP
  15. What would possess this knothead to throw a $1200 phone ? Absolute stupidity. Hopefully the judge will throw the book at this clown at the trial.
  16. While working our company had a Cadillac dental plan. The health care plan was a Chevy Chevette.
  17. Mrs. Lew and I are retired 3 years now. We dont miss work at all. Hobbies ..I golf and Mrs Lew reads Volunteering. We both volunteer at a soup kitchen once a week. There are 20 churches and organizations that rotate the other days. Church. We are both on committees and I am a camera operator for the live streaming of the service. But the best thing we do is watch the two grandkids. Best job ever. my only advice is before you retire , get all your dental work done. i.e. crown, root canal, etc Let the companies dental insurance pay for that.
