Mike In Illinois

I grew up listening to Kenny Rogers (more Pop Country, IMO) thanks to my grandfather. Still love to listen to that music: Gideon, Kenny, Daytime Friends and anything with Dottie West. So I'll carry the flag for The Gambler. I don't listen to country but there's a few songs that I enjoy, Small Town Saturday Night by Hal Ketchum being one. I'll throw in Eagles, before they made the lineup changes; the first few studio albums. The concept album "Desperado" is terrific, in my opinion: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JY8ys03Mqmw&feature=related

Happy birthday! Now get back on the floor and work on that Magnet certification! It's all up to you!

Spike has a Band of Brothers marathon on Monday. Not sure if it's every episode.

FWIW, Week One is usually free. I've been able to see the openers the past few years, including the KC beatdown last season.

Ye shall be in my thoughts and prayers. Please keep us updated on the family when you are able to.

A friend of mine is addicted to it; I tried it once and couldn't get into it. Part of the issue is my computer is not built for serious game play. I play a lot of Battlefield Heroes myself. Been on that for about 3 years (first-person/cartoony shooter).

Yeah, but can it beat a Milk Steak? (a few words at the end are NSFW) http://vimeo.com/9900978

All Fitz needs to do is speak to Quagmire about strengthening his arm: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=di7gz4cjMn4&feature=related

To paraphrase a quote of his from the 'Blues Brothers', that man could turn goat p!$$ into gasoline. Rest In Peace, Duck.

Did you miss the 30-page thread going?

Nice job by kabnt2005 for sticking your neck out there to share the info before it happened.

Life-long resident of central Illinois, living in Springfield, IL now.

Happy birthday to a fellow DTVer!

For those that aren't aware, the audio narration by Herbert Morrison commonly associated with the footage of the crash is played at a high speed, causing Morrison to sound high-pitched. The broadcast has been corrected and was first pkayed in 199 on WLS-AM out of Chicago. Here are a couple of references to the corrected broadcast: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pUVDmXvXcbk If you go about half-way down this page: WLS-AM You'll find a bit of information on this broadcast. As a child this event always fascinated me, so it was an interesting footnote to learn the initial audio was recorded slower than normal.

ProFootballTalk @ProFootballTalk1mThe Bills have released CB Drayton Florence, per league source.

My 6 1/2 said he liked the first show as well. I didn't get a chance to ask him more about it so maybe I'll sit down with him and watch it to see what he likes about it. Kind of an informal focus group of one.

We're recording it as well.

Don't forget Andy Levitre to your list of O-linemen.

He's taking her to Lollapalooza later this summer based on a comment she made to him about enjoying lollipops.

I don't know what to think of all this Draft speculation, so let's have a laugh or two until the picks are made: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aIrhVo1WA78

All these moves have me asking, "When will it end?" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MLv7viCMGo8

I'm interested in attending if we decide to come to the game. Wife and I are discussing the cost of a trip from here to Buffalo or to take tickets to the Indy game in November, which is a 3.5hr drive for us. We are crunching numbers in our budget, as we're planning a family vacation back to Florida next January.
