  1. I think the investment thesis is valid but your timing and potential market might be way off. High level, protein from sources once considered gross or scary are already well established in some countries but will be a last resort in the U.S. I think we will get there at some point due to general resource scarcity (WATER) which will impose significant added costs on the production of beef, pork, chicken and thereby price. Growing awareness and emphasis on sustainable and environmentally friendly food sources favors insects as food. Big question is when will crickets be a commercially viable food item? In some dystopian future or 10 years, 20 years, now? West Coast seems like the natural market for this product. LA, SF, SEA, and Portland. Hippes and hipsters will buy in for social reasons, and large ethnic population helps (Asians will eat anything). There's a newer latin restaurant in Rochester which has crickets on the menu which seem to be popular enough to have stayed on the menu for a few months or so perhaps middle america is ready for crickets, but I wouldn't count on it just yet. Think electric car. It wasn't commercially viable until the economics of oil and other inconvenient truths made the idea that was once laughed at practically a no brainer. At some point, to a far lesser magnitude and assuming our legal system prohibits manufacture of soylent green, I think we will look back while munching on crick-ars and think "how obvious" but when to get in remains the big question.
  2. That you feel every one of your fleeting thoughts deserves its own god damned thread.
  3. It was a very ordinary and routine 5,000 yards.
  4. His 4th year in the league was the first year he started.
  5. Yes. Yes he does. Which is amusing since everyone knows that the key to Buffalo's economic growth lies with keeping the Erie Canal open all year to facilitate trade with Albany.
  6. So you're saying we should be a winning football team and perennial super bowl contender? Do we really want to do that? There's got to be a better way!
  7. Words have meanings. When your point hinges on the use of specific term, there is no other choice. Besides Brees is more of a wigwam and Rivers is your run of the mill nematode.
  8. How about haberdashery while we're tossing around words that don't even begin to characterize Rivers?
  9. Rivers arrives in Buffalo to deliver a super bowl to a starving fan base and repopulate this dying city. He will go down in the books as a Messianic figure in WNY.
  10. http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2015/03/17/tom-house-declares-tim-tebow-ready-to-play/ Tebow is NFL ready. You've got the To House guarantee.
  11. These odds are even better than they were on January 29, 1994. I like it!
  12. Do you want to change your name to Jauronimo Jr.? The kids can call you Jaurju?!?
  13. Not all behavior can be shrugged off as cultural differences.
  14. Some of that perceived rudeness can be chalked up to cultural divide. Shoving to get onto public transportation and generally having no appreciation for lines/queues isn't rude at all in many areas of the world. I can't say that I care for that approach but I don't think its necessarily intended to be rude. I had some rather strong opinions about the driving practices while I was in China but I'll stop myself here.
  15. What is your fascination with me today? At least attempt to make sense.
  16. Nailed it. If I really need some comically misinformed 19 year old social justice warrior telling me how the world works I'll just browse reddit or tumblr.
  17. They sure can. Whats your point?
  18. FA isn't even a week old yet. If we lock up Clay today, how will you miserable wretches pass the time between now and the draft?
  19. EJ, Tyrod, Cassel, and Schaub still makes 4. So, no.
  20. I have no reason not to believe that you've hated them since the moment you first became aware of them. I've disliked them since they first graced local airwaves in my neck of the woods. Notwithstanding, Nickleback jokes are now 'pop' comedy. We may have been doing it since long before it was cool but now every hack is getting laughs at their expense and its time to move on. Like the Black Keys.
  21. While I understand the sentiment, theres only so may reps to go around. Three seems to be the magic number and even then, 3rd string doesn't get too much attention.
  22. Nickleback has become the easiest of targets. In the early days of clickbait, Buzzfeed style lists someone slammed them with worst band of the decade title and then everyone has piled on. You could slam Nickleback in a crowd of 10,000 people and everyone would cheer (you'd find no defenders) yet they've been around for 15 years plus. Clearly, someone is going to these shows and buying their albums. Its not just Gugny. Similar to when some Seth Rogan abortion of a movie made Coldplay synonymous with gay and everyone went with that. I don't care for either band very much but the joke is unoriginal and too easy. I'm bored with the Nickleback hate.
  23. JP deep to Evans twice a game and Greggo to keep the opposing offense to single digit points. Its fool proof!
  24. His girlfriend flew in, there was an airport sighting, the hotel madness when someone found out he didn't take his return flight and was booked at the Hyatt, sending pizzas to his room, seeing deer(s), reservations at Tempo. Mario-mania was amazing.
