That has to be one of the luckiest plays in the history of the NFL. (shakes head) There is no way that's a completed pass without the tip.

NO -13.5 over Detroit.

Define terrorist.

Put up or shut up Trent. I'm a huge fan of yours but your making a very bold statement. I will be dancing in the living room if you could back that up.

I'm starting Evans on my team. Be a Bills fan and pony up your faith. (BTW, I don't have Driver for the other choice.)

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ September 13: General Interest 1814 : Key pens Star-Spangled Banner On this day in 1814, Francis Scott Key pens a poem which is later set to music and in 1931 becomes America's national anthem, "The Star-Spangled Banner." The poem, originally titled "The Defence of Fort McHenry," was written after Key witnessed the Maryland fort being bombarded by the British during the War of 1812. Key was inspired by the sight of a lone U.S. flag still flying over Fort McHenry at daybreak, as reflected in the now-famous words of the "Star-Spangled Banner": "And the rocket's red glare, the bombs bursting in air, Gave proof through the night that our flag was still there." Francis Scott Key was born on August 1, 1779, at Terra Rubra, his family's estate in Frederick County (now Carroll County), Maryland. He became a successful lawyer in Maryland and Washington, D.C., and was later appointed U.S. attorney for the District of Columbia. On June 18, 1812, America declared war on Great Britain after a series of trade disagreements. In August 1814, British troops invaded Washington, D.C., and burned the White House, Capitol Building and Library of Congress. Their next target was Baltimore. After one of Key's friends, Dr. William Beanes, was taken prisoner by the British, Key went to Baltimore, located the ship where Beanes was being held and negotiated his release. However, Key and Beanes weren't allowed to leave until after the British bombardment of Fort McHenry. Key watched the bombing campaign unfold from aboard a ship located about eight miles away. After a day, the British were unable to destroy the fort and gave up. Key was relieved to see the American flag still flying over Fort McHenry and quickly penned a few lines in tribute to what he had witnessed. The poem was printed in newspapers and eventually set to the music of a popular English drinking tune called "To Anacreon in Heaven" by composer John Stafford Smith. People began referring to the song as "The Star-Spangled Banner" and in 1916 President Woodrow Wilson announced that it should be played at all official events. It was adopted as the national anthem on March 3, 1931. Francis Scott Key died of pleurisy on January 11, 1843. Today, the flag that flew over Fort McHenry in 1914 is housed at the Smithsonian Institution’s Museum of American History in Washington, D.C. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ So now you should quaff a beer before and after singing the National Anthem, or you hate America.

Not that there's anything wrong with that. Linky

I was at work and a woman came out of the breakroom and said a plane just hit the WTC. All of us went in. I was thinking it was an accident until I saw the second plane hit. "I said holy it's a terrorist attack. The woman who called me in asked me how I knew that.

Alcohol related deaths in the US since 1982: Total fatalities Alcohol related fatalities Year Edited for brevity; 1982 - 43, 945 deaths, the number attributed to drunk driving was 26,173 (60%) 1990 - 44,599 - 22,587 (51%) 2000 - 41,945 - 17,380 (41%) 2007 - 41,059 - 15,387 (37%) 2007 Drunk Driving Statistics Below are some statistics on drinking and driving in the US. After reading this list, please read about Alcohol Alert to find out what you can do to help stem the tide of drunk driving deaths in your neighborhood...and make money at the same time. All 50 states in the US and Puerto Rico now apply two statutory offenses to driving under the influence of alcohol. The first (and original) offense is known either as driving under the influence (DUI), driving while intoxicated/impaired (DWI), or operating [a motor vehicle] while intoxicated/impaired (OWI). This is based upon a police officer's observations (driving behavior, slurred speech, the results of a roadside sobriety test, etc.) The second offense is called "illegal per se", which is driving with a BAC of 0.08% or higher. Since 2002 it has been illegal in all 50 states to drive with a BAC that is 0.08% or higher.

I've only used the report button once and it was because somebody started a very vicious thread about somebody I have a lot of respect for. That's the only time I've used it. I leave it to others to report posts. Most of them are just juvenile and don't deserve any acknowledgement. JMO ETA: I worked with a girl who had a speech impairment and it never bothered me. She is one of the sweetest people I know. She worked with a pathologist and doesn't stutter anymore.

I lived with a woman who had a 1 1/2 year old and I lived with her for two years. She was a biotch when we broke up but she was a fantastic parent. The little girl would have a nap in the afternoon and go to bed around 7pm and she would get up around 6 or 7am. The days she didn't get a nap she was very fussy but if she had a nap she was never fussy to my memory. IMO, a lot of parents aren't aware of a young child's sleep needs and that causes a lot of problems. I loved that little girl like she was my own child. I miss her terribly but a if guy who lived with a woman for a couple of years tries to stay in that kids life it's just creepy. Anyhoo, if that guy had done that to her he'd know what it feels like to be tackled by Bruce Smith and I'm 5'5". He'd also have to eat through a straw for month or more.
