Bongo Posted December 26, 2018 Share Posted December 26, 2018 Merry Christmas you old bastard. Very sorry to hear about your losses and glad you can find solace on this island of misfit toys. I am mostly a lurker but also am appreciative of this place to come and get my Bills fix. Merry Xmas to everybody and, of course, may this next season be the one. Go Bills! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
