I will check it out, thanks. I find urban decay fascinating and strangly beautiful. The MC5 producer was giving a tour of Detroit by car, and explained "Athens has ruins, Rome has ruins, Detroit's are bigger"

Cool video. In Berlin, artistic squatters repurposed an old bombed out factory and put in 3 bars(one with a fire breathing dragon), 2 coffee shops, one movie theater, a half dozen gigantic art gallerys, apartments, they projected 4 storie images onto the side of the building, and it is one of the coolest places I have been. Never underestimate artists. Detroit has plenty of free studios everywhere. And Detroit has many creative souls. If you are in a band living in Detroit- jam out in huge vacant buildings, play as loud as you want, and get some cool acoustics. From the city that gifted the world Motown, Techno, Punk,, MC5, White Stripes, Stooges, Madonna, John Lee Hooker, Eminem, Stevie Wonder.....Detroit will continue to be a hotbed for creativity and genius I root for Detroit too!

impressive. I have no idea how she chewed that steak so fast. I think I could do compeitive eating. I hit a wall though at 5-6 pounds steak. Barbeque judges are said to put down 7#s at competitions. I love when petite females best their obese male counterparts at compeitive eating!

Thanks, I am glad you all enjoyed my story! Yeah, even then I thought the ride was a risk, but I am so thankful that they did! For one, I felt so free waking home that night during the storm. No curfew, no mother saying "its a blizzard, get inside!". I felt so free as a kid and am thankful I grew up when I did. I wonder what it feels like to be a kid today. But I am certain they didn't feel as free as I did as a child. Part of the reason you would never see a parent drive home a strangers kid today is the litigious society we live in today. As a kid- we didn't have video games. I sprung out of bed at sunrise, played outside(army,hockey, football, baseball) until it was lunch time, then went back out and played until dinner, then went back out, and played until sundown. And to paraphrase an email I received- we drank straight from the garden hose, didn't wear bike helmets, if we had a beef with someone- we fought them- and became friends after. No police were called. We were hardly ever bored and did not need constant stimulation. We didn't always wear seatbelts. My mother drove a pinto. Heck, my Dad even rewarded me with a sip of beer after I cut the lawn. I love my childhood in West Seneca!

I was in second grade I think and went to school that day(Gardenville in West Seneca). The snow came on so fast- we got snowed in at school. I remember having dinner there(ravioli), then sleeping on my mat. I was awoken in the middle of the night and someone loaded up their station wagon with kids and drove us home in the middle of the blizzard in the middle of the night. I got dropped off at the end of my street and had to walk a couple blocks. It was dumping snow and I remember getting blown side to side. I tried to soak it all in and will always remember that walk, but eventually I was so tired- I went home and went to bed. I remember helicopters flying over frequently dropping off supplies in the aftermath

Anna in action

agreed. I suppose he is also a fan of corporate bailouts, the IRS, and beelzebub

did I mistakenly log onto a Pat board? What kind of sick !@#$ would post a thread commemorating the music city debacle?

what is fixed?

Because we are on the cusp of becoming an elite defensive unit that will own the AFC East the next decade

having a second favorite team is polygamy and blaspheme

If Bonds deserves to be in hall of fame, then Rosie Ruiz deserves to be the winner of the NYC Marathon

PFF also graded Dareous at the #2 runstopping DT in the game. Lock him up now. He is only going to get better

WR- Jordan Mathews - big physical WR who runs great routesTE- maybe Sefarin-Jenkins slides to us if we are lucky. If not, Colt Lyerla will slide to 3rd round or later and carries first round grade G- David Yankey might be there for us in the second. Mauler we need at G http://www.nfldraftscout.com/ratings/dsprofile.php?pyid=119336&draftyear=2015&genpos=te

Our secondary turned from a major question mark to a strength. Robey is a great find! Leodis, Gilmore, Robey, Brooks, Williams, Byrd, Searcy- very solid

I don't buy it. "Waiting for the break of day Searching for something to say Flashing lights against the sky" Sounds like an acid trip to me and from the straight dope- Consider this line.. “Should I try to do some more 25 or 6 to 4?” Read it as “Should I try to drop some more acid?” Here is my proof: In the movie Captain Newman, MD (1963), Gregory Peck injects a patient with a drug, and there is close up of the bottle. The label says "Lysergic Acid Diethylamide, 25 or 6 to 4" I have seen this scene at least three times.

The NFL scheduled the Superbowl in New York- and they are talking about moving the date if the weather is bad. You can't move the Superbowl date! That is like changing the date of 4th of July. And besides the point- its football! I still go to work in blizzards. Why can't hockey players?

Sabres cancelled their game today on account of the weather. Pussification continues

Tiny Richardson

I highly doubt Cyril or Richardson are available in second round. And I hate the Mike Evans pick. He is the player I least want the Bills to select. And to select Evans over Lee or Watkins is lunacy

my scenerio is based in reality. This is a deep draft both at the top and in depth. Fact-a great player will slide to 9- no matter if its Sammy Watkins or Johnny Douchebag or maybe even a team covets HaHa and wants to trade up to secure pick. Your proposterous scenerio is baseless

TBD has many who ride the retard rollercoaster. Friends of mine who are Pats, Jets, and Giants fans have all said to me that they they think EJ is the real deal and will be very good for us. TBD is sharpening their pitchforks and lobbying to spend a second consecutive first rounder on QB. Patience grasshopper

exactly. Now imagine if Manziel for example was available and someone traded their late first, early second pick. Now imagine if we drafted Jordan Mathews, Cyril Richardson, and Sefarin-Jenkins. What scenerio would be better?
