Which brings this up. Here's another unsuccessful guy on a dating app. He's probably wondering what he did wrong? Let her go in and pick up the jug of Prestone anti-freeze? https://abc7chicago.com/dolton-illinois-kidnapping-advance-auto-parts-police/12849454/] What is wrong with people!

At what sports event did you have your worst experience?
ExiledInIllinois replied to Another Fan's topic in Off the Wall
You can lose the battle and still win the war. Yeah... The Bills shut it down for the season. Bummer they had to do it the way they did... But rest up, get over the trauma and try again next year. As a fan, and pro-worker... I still think their long term well-being is more important than my $$$$s... Even know they are getting rich beyond all our wildest dreams with those dollars. ANYway... For me... It's June 1999, "NoGoal." My mother passed away that February after succumbing to almost a decade's battle with ovarian cancer... @ 58 year's old. That February when back home right after her passing... Remember Sabres playing the Habs. Sabres would have won in last few seconds on a goal... But Miro's (Satan) skate lace was in crease! It went to OT I believe... I forget... Anyway, that was the first time I heard of the in-crease rule. FFWD γγ... To June... I was so sure the NHL would overturn Hull's certain no-goal. What a joke... The flood of our mother's passing came all back in the early morning hours of that day in June... ***** the NHL and the Dallas Stars... I hope some day Sabres stick it to that sham of a bush league! We were there for this season's debacle in the heat... Biggest sea of humanity we walked in since prior to Pandemic. Been to Miam a handful or more times... Never seemed to have an issue there! -
Every time I hear that song... I can not think of Fraiser's great bit on Cheers. π

That's a good one! π Sexist too... π

Probably a repost. But such a great secondary video made, fits the song perfectly and the times never go out of style. How we were humble and shy from the camera, limelight in a bygone era... YET there were some that weren't! Bravo/Brava!

Same. Chickpea is English, French root. Garbanzo is Spanish. -
Did you ever go to school with anyone famous?
ExiledInIllinois replied to Another Fan's topic in Off the Wall
My wife attended school in Lackawanna with Erie County Executive Mark Poloncarz. She still has her Grade 5 class picture with him in it. LoL... She's the one, first to left, first row kneeling with wings and goofy sweater. Hubba hubba! Pure class attracts class!π π€£ I went to HS, graduated with: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Justin_Strzelczyk On football team with him. Weird, I was lineman, he was wide receiver. Pretty tragic with the CTE and death incident. Really good guy... -

Yeah... You figure, that's about 5 gallons of water weighing about 8 pounds per gallon. Even at say 4 gallons, 32#s dropped on your head has to do some damage.

Then they'll take a home game away and place it London... Wait till they prorate your PSL over the other 8 home games and the stray one that will get moved to Detroit in 2028, 2032, and 2036... π Bend over Bills fan... And wait for the reach around when you lose a playoff bye because they won't call shi... like this: -

Yeah! π I am assuming unfair as being insular, or isolated. "INSULAR 1 : characteristic of an isolated people especially : being, having, or reflecting a narrow provincial viewpoint." I count 3 states that that are insular solely within their drawn borders: Vermont, Rhode Island, & Delaware. -

ExiledInIllinois replied to Big Turk's topic in Off the Wall
I actually found the "Tile Vector Map of Unfair Insularity" rather fascinating! Which led me to this page: "Musings on Maps" https://dabrownstein.com/2014/09/27/national-waters-legal-fictions-and-rivers-of-fertilizer/ National Waters, Legal Fictions, and Rivers of Fertilizer If drawn maps rely on distinguishing lines of property, territoriality, or even shorelines, the overlaps of more interactive web maps provide new strategies to trace the complexity of relations between land and water. The projection of the network of rivers within the United States Jason Davies mapped above, in the header to this post, creates an entrancing web of the body of rivers less as a network, but a nourishing group of waterways. The mapβs beauty provokes us to rethink relations between land and water. In rendering rivers, rather than territory, it suggests how a dynamic mapping of layers and overlays from directly and remotely sensed data might lead to a range of new cartographical strategies to chart the increasingly complex relationships between land and water in ways that would be less concerned to abstract the waterways or supplies of water from their surrounding environment, but to integrate water into the landscape and ecosystem which it nourishesβor the ways that the entry of pollutants into that hydrographic network might compromise local ecosystems across the country. ... -
