HAPPY BIRTHDAY Scott !!

Seat belt,,,EVERY time...5 feet or 500 miles..... Mrs. Lew too.When she totaled the van in July her only injury was a bruise from the seatbelt...Otherwise, the State Troopers said she would have gone through the windshield.... Our company has a seat belt policy for ALL vehicles too....

Thanks Keg.... TSO plays a great concert...

Happy Birthday Meazza...

Structured activities,,,AARRGGHH.. I see so few kids today playing spontaneous pick up games...Soccer, football, basketball, etc are seemingly all in structured leagues....There is a field in our neighborhood that would be perfect for football, soccer, or baseball,,,But the kids are never there playing... Growing up in Lewiston in the '60s was just fine...We played games ALL the time and our parents did not worry about us... I think we learned to take responsibility for our actions rather than to blame others for a bad outcome such as a broken window....

Happy Birthday CL !!!!!!!

National Championship ...only need to know 3 letters.... W V U... LOL.....If they can get past Marshall in game one.... WVU has a cream puff schedule and Coach Rod has to get the players in a strong mindset for each game...So they don't get over confident.... Actually, I'd love to see Marshall beat WVU in the first game .... I have 1 daughter at each school....

DAMN IT Nais at work have blocked this site ...How dare they !!

Congrats to Floyd Landis... He won this race on Thursday when he erased a 8 minute gap from Wednesday.

Update.... It has been a week since the accident...Mrs. Lew has very few seatbelt marks remaining...and the soreness is gone... The insurance co. 'totaled' the van and we have received 80% of the $$. The remaining 20% will be sent when they get the title , which was mailed Friday....and the $$ amount is more than we expected...YAY. New vehicle >> an acquaintance has a used Avalon that is loaded and the $$ they asked for is reasonable. She will test drive it on Sunday night (they are out of town this weekend) and if she likes it, we will buy it.

LOL at needing ANOTHER credit card.... What I dont 'get' is the continued need for the 9/10 addition to the price... $2.99 and 9 tenths....Geesh,.....Like that is gonna make a difference...

Sorry to hear about your dog.....Putting down a pet is always hard to do...Like another poster said, go get the book "Marley and Me"...It is a good book.

Belatedly,,,congrats meazza on the victory by the Azzurri... I got home from work JUST as the PKs were completed.... Then I had a HS soccer referee meeting and the topic was Zindane's headbutt... Us old timers were wondering where CoCo Brazil was... Now there's a guy who could head butt... If a kid head butts during a HS game we agreed to give him or her 2 red cards

The 55 moph number was a guess onn her part...The State Troopers report will have the 'impact' speed...Nonetheless, the air bag (no, not Mrs. Lew) and the seat belt were very effective and provided a favorable result

Thanks for the good infor about the Camry.. Camry is VERY high on my list... Well,,, Mrs. Lew's list as she is gonna be the driver.. And thanks for the good wishes...The seat belt //air bag combination sure did what it is supposed to do

Thanks eball...Mrs. Lew is sore today...and missing her van...It was her 'baby'... It was a great vehicle and now the search for the replacement begins... What is amazing is that there was no glass breakage...and the front end is smushed like an accordian....

Somehow I don't think Meazza is saying THAT...

Superman Returns was a fun and entertaining movie...I enjoyed it... Of the list from the first posting, I am looking forward to "You Me and Dupree" Owen Wilson is pretty good and the trailer was decent..

Two more hours Meazza...Two more hours..Are you doing OK?? I am listening to XM radio and the callers are even split between France and Italy... I called in ..and got through ...but had to vote quickly as I am at work, supposedly working...

I have the full insurance package so that'll be OK..But there might be a hassle because the other guy might not have it...Anyways,,we'll see how this process goes... Mrs. Lew is OK and that is the key thing,,,She is sore today... Next vehicle >>> Honda Fit ??? LOL Probably a Toyota...We have had Camrys in the past and have been satisfied..

Gotta go buy a new vehicle.... Mrs. Lew totaled the van Friday night...She is ok,,,seatbelts ,,airbag,,,Toyota safety engineering saved the day.....Now if she could have avoided the old fart who , from the RH lane on the Interstate, tried to turn LEFT into the median in an effort to turn around in the lil road marked for "Emergency Vehicles Only".....and Mrs. Lew then broadsided the guy going ~ 55 mph after a futile braking attempt.... plus the guy had no Insurance card,, the license plate did not match the registration number and the guy appeared not to be in good driving condition...Not drunk, but seemed 'challenged'... We are gonna get screwed in this situation. The van was a 1999 Sienna,,,just getting 'broken in', too...Only had 249,992 miles on it.....

IF les Bleus were to go up 1--0 early, then there would be 50 million French fans looking for their cardiac meds since Barthez is in Goal.. and replay in FIFA ?? I can't see it...As a referee, I can not see how it could be implemented....There is no timeout or other stoppage....How could a coach 'challenge" a call... 9 more hours,.....
