Hope the keys weren't in ignition. Shoulda had one of the kids hold them. Anyway... What's the law with the new fangled proximity key fobs... Can they still nail you for DUI "Bruce Smith Style" if the keys are just in the vehicle? Didn't they have to actually be in the ignition back in the good old days? Yeah! After throwing down a 5th too! What's this world coming to? Who says she was driving drunk. She was sleeping it off!

Believe it or not, your freezer is more efficient with a fully stocked unit. Just make sure it's not too full. After all, if you don't eat it, it's still cold ice. ALSO: Washing machine and bathtubs good vessels for holding potable water during major storms. You're welcome for the Prepper hint of the days!

"The latest fear up there" is the exact quote. Just struck me as smug. Yet... The island countries were freaking out and closing their port of entries during the pandemic. We weren't afraid to cross borders up here! 😉

You should have at least a dry pantry. Can you get through a month without having to resort to living off the land? When I say: "living off the land"... I don't mean barging into your neighbor's house with your 12 ga. and raiding their refrigerator! 😆😉 ...But that comes in handy! At least have some Dasani and ramen for the spring storm season. 😏

Your smugness 😏 is unbecoming. We'll all come down to spend our soon. 😉 😜

Thoughts? I don't have any. Never thought about that God forsaken place. Okay. Maybe I did: Maybe @Wacka (up thread) is on to something. Bugs Bunny was ahead of his time. Can they take "Miami Beach Norte" along Florida? Get 'er done Bugs!😆

I find this statement deeply vexing... Ironic. I do get the snark though... 😉 Who doesn't want to feel that they have the upper hand w/regards to things they'll never be able to control? During the pandemic "up here" I don't think we were trying to isolate from the rest of the world. Probably why in long run the US weathered the storm more than many others (of course there are other privileges afforded). Well, I guess some were trying to throw up barriers but weren't afforded the luxury of being separated by oceans. Ocean barriers as we found out just served to delay the inevitable. Like it or not, we're all interconnected. IMO Fear = isolating = withdrawal. Throwing up barriers. Rational planing will never be fear. Hiding behind barriers is the epitome of fear. I have always been a proponent of no barriers, even during the deepest, darkest days the last 2 years. Failing to plan is planning to fail. People should always be prepared. That isn't fear. What's wrong with having a little food, water on hand, if not in the event of a nature disaster? We should all have that! The Pandemic should have taught us to prep a little better. Right? Isolation will only make things worse. Never sweep things under the rug. Just my 2 cents.

Who's Tom Green? I guess I was living his message before his message. 😆

I had to give you an eyeroll. 😆

I've never seen your act... But like the rest of us BFLo fans... I betcha you're quite a comedian! 😉

I like how the article segues from the story in Florida to a story about bones in Ohio and about a group called the "Odd Fellows" that dates their origin way back to 1819. Apparently Ohio is full of bunch of odd fellows. Not naming names but I know at least a few there LoL... Can anybody corroborate this? cc: @Beerball 😁😇

No. Not really. I was kinda being sarcastic... I THINK NYT is playing a sick joke on us all about how we compete as humans. 😆 Really, just score a 6 or less and you're a winner. Kinda like doctors, lawyers, dentists, etc... You just see their degree hanging on wall... But do you ask what kinda grades they got in school? 😆 There's gotta be guys out there that got a C average in medical school doing colonoscopies assembly-line style. cc: @BringBackFergy 😉 Yes! 😆... Your handle is: Special K 😆 I saw the error of my ways two seconds after hitting send. I said: "Self, THAT can't be right, let's go back and re-read that!" 😁😇

I whiffed on: SLOSH too @Special K I am SOOO embarrassed. Me? 😆

3.5! Nice Huh? Process of elimination. Sometimes it's even easier if you totally whiff on first word. Next word 5 all new letters. Only 26 letters in alphabet. Nevermind. I read that wrong. Yeah, I missed twice.

I used to go with picking the most vowels... But now go with a random word I think will nail it. Can get it usually 5 or less. Only had two times were I had 4 last letters and missed choosing the wrong first letter and with a slew of choices... Failing at +6. It's really doesn't matter. If you answer it under 6 you win. +6, you're a stinking lover. Everyone is the same winner < or = 6. Why not try for 1? What I wanna know is... I started playing game late... Is there a list of old winning Wordle words?

Oops... Sorry, I didn't know Nerdle was a daily thing. I gave away yesterday's answer early. My bad... Just did today's Nerdle in: 5. Today's Wordle also in 5. But everyone is a winner under 6! 😉

Did my first one in 4 tries. 38+47=85

The pillory or stocks!

PSLs in general, especially in Buffalo are unsustainable. You'll see... Maybe there should be a special name given to the scheme then. Somewhere between Pyramid and Ponzi.

Rock, IMO will have to say something. He can't lay up short. I usually agree with you... But Rock should crush it. Going quiet feeds the Pinkett-Smith thriving on their victim hood. They aren't the victims. Actually, Rock is the victim. He was the one violently attacked. His joke wasn't malicious. I am almost 100% certain he didn't know if this wasn't scripted.

Yeah... The 2009 thing is a good point.. He was just roasting the craziness of fashion. I don't understand a person like that. Losing your hair is more sensitive for women, I get... But then shave your head? Draw more attention to it. That works for a man... But almost all men will suck it up when roasted about it. She should have went the Tom Brady, Mick Jagger route... Create doubt early on. She's got the money to accomplish it. Something tells me the Pinkett-Smith's love to play the victimhood. ...And Denzel Washington ain't helping!

Yeah... But have you ever nailed a Wordle on 2 tries? I have a few in repertoire! 😉 I came close to nailing a hole-in-one on those occasions! I can guarantee, You'll never get a hole-in-one covering a lot of vowels. But... Anyway, "Everyone is a winner" covering it under 6. Now... Where's my "participation trophy" 🏆 And I'll be on my way! 😉😜

From 2009: https://nypost.com/2009/03/01/about-that-psl/ Keep on calling down the list. Seems like a great, sustainable plan for a place and economy like BFLo. Give it a few years... 😏

I know. Not sure why audio isn't on that game's Wordle list. Crazy! Whatya do when the Wordle is: NYMPH 😉😜 (Which it was a few days ago) Anyway... Don't know what the fuss is. According to rules, if you get it under 6, you win... Why do humans have to always ramp up the competition. This is PASS-FAIL. 😏
