  1. Happy isn't the right word, a better word would be relieved and confident that there are now competent people with the right policies in the White House to move this country forward positively on a number of fronts (economic, foreign policy, social issues). And I'm satisfied with the people in government that I voted for, I can't say the same for some that others have voted for. Some of the Democrats in the House are trying to push Obama too far to the left, and the Repubs offer no viable alternatives and are more interested in partisan politics than working with Obama. Fortunately he's been taking the middle road that most voters support. I'll be happy when the economy finally recovers.
  2. I'm quite sure that there is real anger and anguish over the fact that Obama and the Democrats were chosen by the majority of voters to lead the country after Karl Rove's attempt to establish a permanent Republican majority failed. But the fact remains that they represent a minority of voters, maybe as much as 30%, but still a clear minority, while the majority of Americans continue to support Obama and his policies, knowing that he is working to fix the problems created before he was elected. I wonder where all this anger over government and spending was when Bush and the Republican majority were creating record deficits, and putting our children further in debt by not paying for the spending, and not vetoing any spending bills. Where were the protests then? But of course this Teabagger movement is a catch-all for anybody who doesn't like Obama or his policies, while not offering any viable alternatives for getting the country out of the current economic problems, other than more of the same failed policies of the last 8 years. But feel free to continue to teabag, it's great entertainment in-between the Palin family follies and cranky Cheney.
  3. So Jewish people in NYC are more important than those in any other NFL city? The Bills should offer to move one of the games to Toronto, and then the Jets can play the Bills at the Ralph.
  4. Too bad you didn't remember that when people protested the Iraq invasion or the Patriot Act.
  5. What's curious is how you mistakenly stereotype people.
  6. Nothing much will change as long as Regier remains. He's too afraid to make big changes, so we'll get some minor change to a 3rd liner, and the promise that it was another growing year for the young players, and it's time they step up. So once again they'll be fighting for the 6th-8th playoff spot. Good enough to maybe make the playoffs, but not enough to challenge for the Cup.
  7. Go with the family friendly section, just families with kids, and senior citizens, with no drinking. The sightlines are still good, you're facing towards the scoreboard, and you get a good view of the cheerleaders. Bring your binoculors for closeups. And sunglasses if it's sunny.

  9. Those here still alive will be too busy to use the internet, as they spend their time working out their artificial hearts by using the Viagra nanobots to boink their Japanese sex robots. Two Bills Drive will be gone, replaced by Main Street, USA, where the fans of the Disneyland Bills will debate when the revived cryogenic heads of Ralph Wilson and Walt Disney will deliver the first Super Bowl championship to the Bills fans.
  10. Given that RB #1 is suspended, and RB #2 is unsigned, it wouldn't take much to consider any signing as an "upgrade".
  11. Real Genius - Val Kilmer? "You wore out my machine, what kind of woman are you?"
  12. Maybe the Release Show is actually the ESPN analysts sitting in a circle with Tom Brady in the middle.
  13. Casino "I once stole a pornographic book that was printed in braille. I used to rub the dirty parts."
  14. Trading Places? The Jerk? "Lighten up, Francis".
  15. 1. The Brady rule gets called as a Bills pass rusher lunges at Brady and taps him on the calf. 2. Tony Kornhiser talks about how playing more games in Toronto is a good thing. 3. Edwards gets blindsided and fumbles as whoever is playing LT for no-show Jason Peters misses a block. 4. Fred Taylor scores 2 TDs from in close and the broadcasters remind us that the Bills looked at him in free agency. 5. The camera shows TO sitting by himself on the bench in the last minutes of the game with a look of, "WTF?!".
  16. I'd rerun that more than one day at a time.
  17. Anybody who doesn't believe that the demand for drugs in the U.S. is a major reason for the drug cartals and the violence is delusional. Obviously if there wasn't a demand, there wouldn't be profit for the drug lords, and the money to buy the guns and continue their operations. The drug trade funds everything from the violence in Mexico to the Taliban in Afganistan. Anybody who continues to partake in using drugs is directly resposible. That should be the message to teens and young adults. Never mind what it does to themselves, show them the graphic pictures that their recreational drug use can and has resulted in the death of American soldiers and police. Given the amount of money involved, I don't think we can ever cut off the supply. It has to be the demand.
  18. What if they were killed along with the other Dharma members.
  19. We'll probably see it called for the first time when a Bills rusher tackles Brady in the first game. What if they dive at the QB and trip him with a hand on the ankle and he bangs his knee on the ground, will that be a penalty? What's the dividing line between a below knee tackle and a penalty?
  20. It's all fun and games until it bites a neighbor's head off. Hippos are the number one cause of death by animal in Africa.
  21. It could be the type of toxin that requires mixing with another solution to become active, so maybe he's just experiencing some temporary respiratory symptoms. I'm really disliking the president's daughter, I look forward to the president finding out about what she's been doing.
  22. I just bought 200 more shares of GE stock last week with some of my tax return, and it's already up about 3% over what I paid.
  23. I'd be willing to put on a Dick Cheney mask while Rush Limbaugh talks on the radio for a piece of that.
  24. I imagine the post-Wilson Bills will be purchased by a group that includes both Rogers Communications and the Jim Kelly group. The Bills will eventually split their schedule and play 4 games in Buffalo and 4 in Toronto. Thus they can say the Bills are still in Buffalo but get the additional revenue from Canada. They'll say it's the best they can do to ensure the long term viability of the Bills staying in the region.
  25. 67 year old chairman of UTC is in a divorce case with his 36 year old Swedish wife of 7 years. She wants the judge to invalidate the $43 million post-nup agreement and award her $100 million. http://www.cnbc.com/id/29826204/for/cnbc/
