    The WNY Summer Appreciation Thread

    in Off the Wall

    Posted

    I lived near railroad tracks Blasdell as a kid. I remember the Erie county fair strolling down the tracks each summer. That meant in a few days, rickety rides, fried dough and the rest of the summer fair.

     

    FYI i'm back "home" for 10 days next week. Can't wait!!!! Though too early for the fair.

    Any Amateur Beer Brewers? Looking For Tips

    Thanks. That's really interesting - one of the limiting factors when I pick out what to brew is that I can't stand IPA's and hoppy beers. To me it's like drinking nails. If I get back into brewing I'll try that but I'll definitely start out with something less hoppy than an IPA. 

    I don't under stand the IPA craze. To me it like a licking a tree. I'm all about the malty beer. Brown Ales. Irish reds, stouts, and even pilsners just to name a few.

    As mentioned earlier, Youtube should be a great resource.

     

    Keep us posted on your progress.

    I'll be back "home" in late June early July, I will get most of things mentioned in these pages:

    Oh the pizza, probably Blasdell and or Bella.

    Mighty of course,

    Great wings just about anywhere.

    Multiple BOW.

    Italian probably Mulberry's and Ilio's

    Hope to make taste of Buffalo as well.

     

    Oh no one ever mentioned Logan berry, cant find this anywhere.... I'll be sure to have some of that sweet drink.

     

    For those of you that still live in WNY, you don't know what you have till you move.

    I like this beer. It is ordered en masse for the san diego billsbackers club bar.  Bucket specials. It tastes like WNY to me.  But I only drink it there at the venue.

     

     

     

    For some reason my local Publix store carries Blue. I'll keep buying it till they stop carrying it.

    Remember when OV splits were cool?  I could never see the attraction, but you were 'hot stuff' if you and your cohorts bought a case of these for quaffing down in the back room at Gabel's. 🤔

    Purchased many of these cases at Brick Bar back in the day. Oh college was so fun.

    Loss of a pet

    Try to remember the funny things your cat did that made him special. Keep those memories. Know that you gave him a great life. Try to find some peace. When you are ready, and everyone's timeline is different, you'll adopt again. Pets add so much to our lives, the pain you are going through makes it so worthwhile.

     

    Peace.

     

     

    What cars did you ever own?

    Too many to list but here are the interesting ones:

     

    78 Ford LTD 1st car owned, green 2 door, 351W Beat the hell out of it. Lasted a few years, a true boat. 

    84 Dodge Daytona, non-turbo 😪 Would to get a hold of one now in good shape and a turbo.

    90 Mustang LX 5.0 5 manual, top 5 car for me. So fun to drive. 3.08 gears from the factory

    87 Buick Grand National, very quick but very moody. Should have kept this one as values are through the roof.

    99 Corvette Silver Auto. Had this for about 14 years. Top 5 for me.

    2015 Hemi Challenger Manual, heavy as crap but still a blast to drive

    2021 Challenger ScatPack auto as no human can shift faster than the computer. Top 5.
