  1. You still don't get it do you? It's a scam. The last post will be made by the person who closes this thread. Nobody can win except Dev or a moderator. That's why my thread was second to last post wins. My thread had a chance to win for everybody.
  2. Could the Bills sign a bottle of Liquid Plumber instead?
  3. JMO Now that would be a breath of fresh air! Pediatricians call for choke proof hot dog. Now, the American Academy of Pediatrics wants foods like hot dogs to come with a warning label — not because of their nutritional risks but because they pose a choking hazard to babies and children. Better yet, the academy would like to see foods such as hot dogs "redesigned" so their size, shape and texture make them less likely to lodge in a youngster's throat. More than 10,000 children under 14 go to the emergency room each year after choking on food, and up to 77 die, says the new policy statement, published online today in Pediatrics. About 17% of food-related asphyxiations are caused by hot dogs. Aye Yi Yi!! so if 17% of the 77 children die choking on hot dogs that means 13 kids a year die choking on hot dogs. 13, and the industry needs to redesign them? This, IMO, is just another knee jerk reaction to a very small problem. Though Smith says he doesn't know exactly how someone would redesign a hot dog, he's certain that some savvy inventor will find a way. Janet Riley, president of the National Hot Dog & Sausage Council, supports the academy's call to better educate parents and caregivers about choking prevention. "Ensuring the safety of the foods we service to children is critically important for us," Riley says. But Riley questions whether warning labels are needed. She notes that more than half of hot dogs sold in stores already have choking-prevention tips on their packages, advising parents to cut them into small pieces. "As a mother who has fed toddlers cylindrical foods like grapes, bananas, hot dogs and carrots, I 'redesigned' them in my kitchen by cutting them with a paring knife until my children were old enough to manage on their own," Riley says. The package of "Ball Park Franks" I have in my fridge says "For children under 5 cut lengthwise and slice" It's in very fine print but it's there. The only thing they MIGHT need to do, IMO, is to increase the size of the message.
  4. I've got a campaign slogan for you now! Vote for the Trivial King!!
  5. Fishing, reading and annoying the piss out of Steerball!!
  6. I think Canada was ascared of Millers helmet.
  7. Canada out shot the USA 45-22. MILLER ROCKS!! Unfortunately, for the Hosers, the games are played on ice.
  8. MILLER!! MILLER!! MILLER!! FAVORITE SHMAVORITE!!
  9. Thanks, I think it's overloaded because it can't load right now.
  10. Thanks, does anyone know where the "watch live" link is?
  11. It allows him to be a dictator.
  12. This really bothers people that much?! Geez, I have bigger fish to fry in my life. I live in Penfield but I tell everyone from outside the state that I live in Rochester. I guess I don't understand the big deal. When describing New York do you say the upper east of the country?
  13. Surely they must have a finite number of tickets to sell to the trout or it's gonna be awfully crowded. After posting that to people living in western New York you're lucky if you don't get banned!!!
  14. I don't get MSNBC so I'm looking for something on the internet that will show it. It will be broadcast on the radio (1280 WHTK) here in Rochester but I'd really like to watch it. Thanks in advance if anyone knows.
  15. That's awesome. You should use that in your campaign. Wouldn't it make more sense to send the loser to the Indians training camp and let the winner not have to go?
  16. I just submitted this to snopes. If I hear anything I'll let you guys know.
  17. If she's making out with a dude in public there's a lot more going on there. Anyhoo, she admitted it on the air. Making out with someone else in public is a huge mistake and is thisclose to telling everyone she's cheating on you. If she had been doing it a week before she wasn't intending on stopping the relationship, JMO She humiliated him publicly, turnabout is fair play, IMO. If she never cheated it would never have happened. I still think there's a possibility it was a hoax though.
  18. http://www.cnn.com/2005/HEALTH/06/15/schia...opsy/index.html A report from a neuropathologist who served as a consultant to the autopsy said Schiavo's brain was "grossly abnormal and weighed only 615 grams [1.35 pounds]." That weight is less than half that expected for a woman of her age, said the report written by Dr. Stephen J. Nelson. I understand that families desperately want to believe that their loved one is better off than they really are but you need to stop and look at the real data and decide if your saving your daughter or son or just torturing them. JMO
  19. The facilitator should be prosecuted. The trick she played on that family is inexcusable IMO.
  20. Eric Clapton; While my guitar gently weeps. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IfNMrnTlK-w This is a phenomenal version of that song; McCartney and Clapton
  21. Ok, I'll stop posting.
  22. Too true, he was a very respected studio musician before Dire Straits. He performs on Bob Dylan's "Slow Train Coming" album. His work on Precious Angel is awesome. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6s1rWE_082M The riff Gilmour came up with for Money makes that song. That was the first thing that came to mind when I saw this thread. One of my best friends uncles taught Charo to play the guitar. Henry McCullough on My Love Here's a critics list.
