  1. Sorry too busy. First they want us to watch out for things I can't see, like motorcycles. How stupid and sniveling are those: "Watch for motorcycles" bumper stickers on automobiles. What a crybaby world. Here's a novel idea, how about everyone watch out for themselves. In the boating world, sailboats ⛵ = Bicycles and motorcycles. In their twisted minds, everyone else must revolve around their silly self-important needs. But, to answer the OP's original questions. If they ticket automobiles for driving in a bike lane, then ticket bikes for driving in an automobile lane.
  2. Deserts get cold at night: "The Western Desert lives and breathes In forty-five degrees..." "Build a house like a shadow..." https://thespaces.com/property-of-the-week-black-desert-house-in-yucca-valley-california/
  3. Gonna be great when we are all 6 feet apart and tickets only cost $5,500/game. How much is a hot dog and a Coke. $110.000? You picked a fine time to build me Lucille...
  4. There are real wrinkles there. Just not on the face, check out the hands. The hands are are always the tell tale sign. Can't PlastiKote that. You're sick. But, I like the way you think! LoL...
  5. 😆... Hate to break the news, it's a Federal Server. Good luck, will be waiting on that work order. 😉 😜
  6. Yeah, right, she never had plastic. Her face is frozen in '12. I wish it was '62. How does she get the war paint off? Can I borrow the needle scaler for my '62 Falcon's engine block? /smh.
  7. Yup... We've lived off of French for 60 years. Brother still there. Schools like W.Seneca East going down tubes. LoL... But that was always a shithole seeing I graduated from West. ? ? ?
  8. Yup! FWIW... Places like West Seneca Schools (on edge of City) struggle with the pockets of poverty. You wouldn't think it... EDIT: Not really poverty. Just "working poor."
  9. 45 sounds high! My town here it's... a paltry $19,800!!! I can take you through some towns (please close your window and lock your door) where the per capita doesn't even scratch $9k. Figure... IF it's $40k. A family of four has to be cranking in 160 gas a year.
  10. Per capita. Which is a really good metric of affluence.
  11. Yup! And... Historically segregated by gender. Big non-coed tradition in WNY when it comes to secondary education
  12. I am making a quick (under 12 hour trip) to Iowa to help my son move tomorrow. Actually I pick up a U-Haul trailer in Cedar Rapids. Do you need me to get her number? I can keep the U-Haul and transport her 3.5 hours back East. You'll have to figure out cartage the rest of the way east. @plenzmd1 Of course. They will have to condemn the trailer. But, I took out the $8.00 insurance policy. Should cover it.
  13. My son is @ Iowa. Finishing up in Fall with 3 classes. One is online. The others may be in person if they don't get big classes.
  14. Then comes the contact! Let's see if hockey blows up in it's face. Baseball on other hand is naturally socially distanced. We shall see...
  15. But you gotta get them early. The ran out at Cedar Point one year we were there. They have to limit the #s, can't accommodate all the elites. Everyone should attempt to buy them. It would be the same line.
  16. I don't think it would be as bad as a visit to Gary... LoL... What if everyone bought a FastPass. Oh wait, they can't do that.
  17. You PETA freaks are funny. Gee... Get stomped in battle by a horse or use a caltrop that was invented over 2,000 years ago? A no brainer. The horse is going down before I do. Only the strong survive. Sorry, feelings don't cut it.
  18. For @BringBackFergy from my Wiki Sources about area denial weapons: Go Illinois! HLM! Even before it was cool and hip! "Labour activistsEdit Caltrops have been used at times during labour strikes and other disputes. Such devices were used by some to destroy the tyres of management and replacement workers. Caltrops, referred to as "jack rocks" in news articles, were used during the Caterpillar strike of the mid-1990s, puncturing tyres on vehicles crossing the picket line in Peoria. Because of their small size and the difficulty proving their source, both the company and the United Auto Workers blamed each other. Collateral damage included a school bus and a walking mail carrier.[19] In Illinois, the state legislature passed a law making the possession of such devices a misdemeanor.[20][21] " @Howard ain't gonna like that! PCLM! Postal Carriers Lives Matter.
  19. Can masks protect against these? I think not! I think it was the Barbarians that learned to use caltrops and stop Roman chariots in their tracks. Throw these all around town ain't no horse gonna wanna step on these. They always land pointing up when tossed. Just don't tell horse welfare advocate @Gugny! It is rather cruel, but effective in an arms race.
  20. Gary, Indiana. Check out that view of The Lake! You've not been living if you've never visited! Sure, there's some bad parts... But like any place else, you learn to avoid them! The picturesque lighthouse makes up for it: Same with the Jackson 5 museum, don't miss that: And you can't beat $27 flights into Greater Gary Airport! I got the Shadester beat, I am a homey too! Gateway to the Indiana Dunes National Lakeshore: Where else can you visit Michael Jackson's childhood home AND go beachcombing all in the same day! And visit Buffalo born Homey, SCOTUS Chief Justice Roberts childhood stomping grounds in Long Beach: But be prepared to drop some coins... That's a $1.7 million dollar home!
