  1. Wow! I know some women that really like Outlook but that's a new level.
  2. Here is an update from NYCBBB: http://nycbbb.com/2012-emails/beer-2/
  3. Looking for some understudies
  4. Outstanding!!! Thanks
  5. Anyone have info on which lot at MetLife will be the one for TBD and other Bills followers to go for tailgating for those of us traveling to the game? You know the whole Pinto experience, et al.
  6. If TT is on the opening day roster, the Bills are stuck for $2.5M. Also weigh that when making a determination.
  7. Correct I have seen the performance twice. That is an anecdote that I forgot to include. If I had not taken the handle Mr Info, I might have selected Mr. Floyd as I am an uber fan. I have shared my rare Floyd outtakes, curios, and bootlegs with TBD memebers. For you Floyd fanatics - head over to http://www.yeeshkul.com/. I am a contributing member there. The site name has an interesting origin that you can find there.
  8. Just two nights ago, Roger Waters joined GE Smith for a blues tune at The Stephen Talkhouse in Amagansett NY to celebrate GE's birthday:
  9. I have followed LA for quite awhile and want to believe he did not juice. I recently visited with a friend who is in the top three amateur cyclist/triathletes in his age range in the world. He knows amateurs that are juicing and believes it is impossible that LA did not. It is known that doping has been going on in cycling since the tour began in 1903 and before testing was ever performed http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Doping_at_the_Tour_de_France This is still all hearsay and I am not 100% convinced that LA did but if it is true than I am ok with it after hearing some of the other competition doping tales that my friend relayed. This guy is a straight shooter and I believe him. Regardless, LA is still an amazing athlete. Doping is fairly common on the Tour and the riders are looking for that extra edge. If many other riders along with him were doping and he still won 7 tours, that is amazing. If he won that many without doping, well...they should do some testing to determine if he could be an alien.
  10. Outf#!kingstanding! My wife works on some business deals with Jimmy (and that is all I can say). Now we should be able to score some tix for the game there.
  11. Thanks a bunch, Mark. I always look forward to these posts. I am interested in Premium Rush. I like JGL but the staging of the bike filming, at least in the trailer, appears exhilarating to watch. I hope the story line/screenplay is just as good. After reading the strong dissents on the TBD bicycle discussion I can envision two TBD bleachers at this movie: one cheering when the bike rider cleverly avoids the situation and the other when the rider gets whacked. Though, in fairness, it is the wild west for NYC bike deliverers as they do what they please.
  12. I periodically worked in the SE part of PR but I would stay in Ponce (south center) part of the island rather than San Juan. I always enjoyed the laid-back, non-tourist feel of Ponce. If you are nearby and can stop, check out Plaza Las Delicias which is the center square of Ponce. Some nearby great beaches, too.
  13. Durant was there the week before but not the night we were there. G'towns Chris Wright and Antonio Hyman played. Some other dude was the MVP of some Euro league. I did not spot any MD players but I had a hard time catching all the names from the announcer. These guys all had game. The warm-ups were as entertaining as the games and it was like the slam-dunk competition. But once the games started, these guys became serious as chit about their ball. Great bball court in the middle of the projects. Nike spent >$150k to upgrade it about a year ago.
  14. I just stubhubbed 4 in 337 so I will be next to 336. Two Jets fans will be joining us so they can watch the demolition live.
  15. A couple of weeks ago, I took my son to watch the Goodman League in the Berry Farms Dwellings in SE DC (a few blocks from the Anacostia stop): Goodman League Great basketball and you never know who (NBA, ex-NBA, College, etc.) might appear. We were the only caucasians at the game & due to that were welcomed by Miles Rawls (commissioner & announcer) over the mike. The games ended about 10:00 and we had no issues going/coming or at the games. We had a great time and saw some amazing ball.
  16. I was looking on the NYCBB Backers site for 4 tix together and they are sold out...well, they may have a couple of singles left. I hope they can score more tix from the Jets. It looks like they could sell more if they do.
  17. It appears 15 charge some sort of PSL. Sport PSLs
  18. I live just North of Richmond and have a cycle and that would be a long ride. I would do it if I had a few days but not Sunday night after a football game...but that's me. I do not drive that route very much anymore. Another option - catch a Sat morning flight on Southwest out of BWI to BUF and return Sunday on the 7 pm flight. Right now $193 RT. No traffic Sat morning to BWI or returning on Sun night (everybody is going in the opposite direction). Listen to the Sunday night game on the way back and Bills highlights. I do this for about 3 games a year but plan ahead to get inexpensive flights. You can also fly from RIC to BUF that weekend for ~$290 RT. Depart BUF Sunday night around 7 pm. Departure time may seem tight on Sunday evening but I have never missed that flight. Leave stadium 5:30-5:45 and get to BUF before 6:30.
  19. Pink Floyd blues Classic blues...great guitar and piano work by Gilmour and Wright. No video but let it play in the background.
  20. I'm thinking they showcase Smith and Young @ QB in the pre-season. Smith makes a good showing in pre-season and sometime early next season some team needs a QB due to injury, etc. The Bills have three of 'em and can broker a good trade with Smith. Not saying Smith can't help the Bills somehow but having your 3rd string QB look good in pre-season might help us differently.
  21. I know the family in Batavia & donated for that little girl. Call me 804-641-2088 and I will get you in touch with them.
  22. Waters on 60 minutes tonight (20 May)
  23. Check out another Favreau movie: "The Big Empty". An odd little movie but I enjoyed the weirdness of it. Somewhat based on a Twilight Zone episode but with some interesting characters and dialogue. Also in the movie: Bud Cort, Darryl Hannah, Kelsey Grammar, Sean Bean.
  24. Roger Waters was on Jim Ladd's show for 4 hours on Deep Tracks tonight and he announced that the Pink Floyd channel would start on Memorial Day weekend on the Deep Tracks channel and move to another station in June. I know there are some other Floyd/Waters fans around so I thought they may be interested. Still no word about this on XM/Sirius so I guess Roger released the news a little early. As always, a Waters interview is interesting and he is friends with Ladd so that made it even more insightful. It appears there will be some more Immersion releases (Animals? Meddle?) forthcoming. I will make an offer to the Floyd fanatics. I contribute some stuff to the Yeeshkul Floyd site. PM me and I will tell you about some rare quality Floyd material I will share if you are interested.
  25. Careful, I noticed that GM pulling ads from fb Earlier news this year that Gap, J.C. Penney, Nordstrom and GameStop have all opened and closed shops on Facebook within the past year: Bloomberg report on fb closings Just FYI for due diligence.
