Boston is cool.

Hahahahahahaha! Nice.

Nice scenery depending on where you are. Fresh air. Scantily clad women flaunting their sweater puppets. It's not an awful thing.

I'll second Burlington, VT as an option. Really beautiful little city on the shore of lake Champlain. Downtown full of cool shops and restaurants, and the Echo Aquarium and Science center is great for young children. Tons of breweries within a short driving distance. Nearby ski resorts have family friendly activities going on in the summer time. Stop on the way up at the Hammersticks' home for a hot shower and a cold beer

What strikes me is the belief, seemingly held by many, that homosexuality almost automatically equates to mental illness. Correlation does not necessarily imply causation, and this man expressing suicidal ideation does not automatically mean that he is/was mentally ill. The "real issue here is mental illness" response baffles me.

We spend a week in Wells Beach, Maine every summer. Typically, you can find more reasonable lodging rates in August. Beaches, good food and relaxation (and other fun stuff for the kiddies). Love me some Maine.

Agreed....to PPP with this horrible thread!! Tout de suite!!

Well, the stressors associated with him being gay certainly appear to have been the root cause of his struggles, no?

I'm unclear as to your feelings about Lehner. Could you please clarify?

Good call... https://www.nunesmagician.com/2017/6/23/15860160/syracuse-andrew-white-iii-signs-with-cleveland-cavaliers-nba-draft-orange-free-agent Also, TRob signs with the Bucks. https://www.nunesmagician.com/2017/6/24/15868654/syracuses-tyler-roberson-signs-with-milwaukee-bucks

I drove away as quickly as I possibly could with a load of crap in my pants. There were loads of witnesses there anyway. They didn't need me

During breaks from college, I was working collecting money for a furniture store on Lyell Ave in Rochester, and witnessed and execution style murder in front of a barber shop while I was driving by. We saw a guy get out of the passenger seat of a car, walk up to a man who was standing near the doorway of the barber shop, and shoot him right in the face. Hearing gun shots ring off in that neighborhood was very common. Seeing that whole thing play out in front of my eyes was deeply disturbing. They police caught the shooter within hours, BTW. Drug/gang related homicide.

As someone who has been on this exact ride 4-5 times, I'd have to agree. You'd have to be acting like a complete wacko to end up in this situation. Never wish harm to anyone, of course, but it's too bad the park is going to take heat for this.

This just in! John McEnroe is an a$&hole. Even if he believed it to be true (and I happen to disagree), he never should have said it.

How dare these people ignore all the hard work done by Chuck Darwin? lol

Great...they won't let my son on any of the good rides again this year.

He's a high motor guy with a lightning quick first step.

Thanks for sharing. Tyrod certainly is a class act. Last summer I took my son for our annual trip to SJF. In the past, at least 7 or 8 players will stick around after practice to sign autographs. After this particular session, however, all the players bolted for the locker room. Tyrod was the only player to sign autographs that day, and he stayed until everyone who wanted an autograph/picture got one. He earned a great deal of respect from me on that day.

Jeebus! Loads of loons and ducks here. Never seen a swan. Fortunately.

Just purchased a beautiful fishing kayak today. Perfect for the reservoirs, rivers and small lakes around where I live. I can't wait to try it out on Sunday! Went fishing on Wednesday with my son to a spot where we usually catch a lot of pan fish (rock bass, bluegills, perch, etc...). Out of nowhere the smallmouth started hitting. My son caught a nice 2-3 pounder, and I caught a few including one that was about 6.5 pounds. Lost another one that looked even bigger. Might have been a small pike. Snapped my line about 5 feet away from the shore.

Good for Lydon. Pretty sure Uncle Drew will catch on somewhere. He's too good of a shooter not to.

I stand for much of the game at home too....haha. Drives my wife up the wall. lol...seriously? Is that section primarily for the old farts? It didn't seem that way....good mix of people.

IIRC...it was the Paul Maguire Club. Why? Is that the old folks club section or something

This is why I will never pay to sit in the club sections again. I do think it was the case where I was sitting. I got some club tickets from a friend and brought my father and little cousin. Hardly a raucous crowd. The fans around us were absolutely brutal. I think it's permissible to stand and cheer on 3rd downs and big plays near the goal line. By no means were we standing up "every second of the game." We got berated for nearly the entire game. I certainly would never, ever pay money to sit among these pathetic trouser stain fans again in my life. It's a live football game. If you want to sit down for the entire game stay home and watch from your recliner. Weak.
