Nice I am 5 miles in from the Indiana Line dead South of the Lake... in Will County. They stop here like clockwork every May 5-10th or so, spend a few weeks and head on N, NW! 😆, They are going up to the "Cheddar Curtain" to nest! 😃

Not sure where you're at... But if up North, like here, you're in their migration pattern. Obviously if they are building nests, they are staying for summer! LoL... Put sliced oranges out, they will comeback like clockwork. Here it's every early May. I have a few pics up thread...

I sent that to my wife. In the throws of it @ the ripe young age of 54... 😆

The whole team. Beat them to the net. Which he did... By only a second. Still judgemental error. Players are going 25mph... The game doesn't stop the second the goal light is lit.

Yup. Yeah, because of lack of situational awareness the player will get creamed. Go behind the net, touch up and think twice. You're asking the other player to stop on a dime the sec the goal light is lit. 25mph to 0 in a sec. Look.. I respect the hustle, but not wanton reckless abandonment... He misjudged, sure he got the goal. Still misjudged how fast the other player was going to the body which had the puck a second before. Some times you win and come out unscathed, some times you win and get creamed. Suck it up buttercup...

Always finish your check.

Yeah there was. You're once again wrong. Confusing the hit with being cute. Both were hustling to get the puck. Evans got the puck, due to his superior hustle, that ain't the cute part. The cute part was he jammed it in right in the middle of the hammer lane. He got smeared because a semi doing 70 can't stop the split sec the goal light is lit. The whole Jets backcheck. I guess he misjudged. But he scored!

Yeah it was. A wrap-around is a dangle. He got cute and ran into a Mack truck playing in the middle of the road. By definition it is a dangle: Dangle: when a player is a deke (or decoy) by making moves to fake out the goalie or opposing player; also used to describe the act of stick-handling. Definitely a wrap-around is a fake or a deke. What planet you on? deke /dēk/ Learn to pronounce ICE HOCKEY noun a deceptive movement or feint that induces an opponent to move out of position. verb draw (a player) out of position by performing a deke. "four minutes into the third period, Hull scored his 70th goal of the season, deking a Flyer defenseman to the ice"

Make them really expensive toll roads. Cars will go elsewhere. Like I-355 here. I avoid that like the plague... BUT when I do decide to take a second mortgage out to pay my EZ/I-Pass account, it's the sweetest road on the planet!

Babies. Little bit of duct tape and get that plane in the air! We got money to make! Just a scratch.

Alex, what is Evans is a Montreal Canadien player in the playoffs and the League sux?

Yeah. What's he gonna do? Brace for impact is all he can do. Scheifele did a better job. Again, like two in jousting match. Don't play in the middle of the road, you won't get hit by a car. Scheifele has just as much right to be there... What's he supposed to do? Turtle up? That's when a player gets hurt. Evans was going for the net, Scheifele, going for, the player with the puck. ***** happens. If You're the puck carrier, brace for impact or don't dangle.

The tank is on! 😆🤣

I don't go rollerblading in the middle of the road either and then complain when I get hit by a car. He wrapped around, that's like playing in the middle of the road. Evans took the upper hand in the scoring chance, but not the hit. Clean, heavy hit is the result. Should Scheifele just quit on the play? Give up? He can't stop on the dime. This is like two jousting on horseback, Scheifele stayed mounted on his horse. Evans scored, but almost got killed doing it.

NHL is such a bizarre bush league. 😆 That will teach a team for being bad. Stay bad! Nothing harkens back to the day when The Habs had exclusive rights to players coming out of Quebec. It's always been a league where the rich get richer and the poor have step out of the gutter with one skate holding them down. You don't wanna legitimately turn bad in this league, because there you'll stay, for good. Look what Edmonton has done with all their #1s. Nothing.

I think it's road design, topography too. The way the roads bend and curve. Some are bruuutal. Think like "slack" on a really long train. They are addressing those concerns with better modern design technology tools and planning.

You're nuts. 😉😜 Neither. 😆 Don't take anything personally. Each individual has a unique worldview that alters their own perceptions, and that the actions and beliefs of a person is a projection of their own personal reality.

Yup. Locality pay. We gotta raise when we switched from Rock Island to Chicago a year ago... Our Wage Grade (Not GS) is based on local industry. Funny... We were first based out of Chicago before 1979. In 1979, industry had higher wages in Quad Cities and Peoria (Deere, Moline & Caterpillar, Peoria) than Chicago... So when they moved to Rock Island as HQ, we got a raise then too. Today, last year opposite when we moved back to Chicago... Got another raise for locality...

Yeah... What a jump! From the "Ink Spots" To:

Still not sold on any "process." Maybe it's just me. Okay... I want 3 600 yard games in a row and a 19-0 season, maybe I'd change my ways... 😉😜

Thanks. That's why I asked. Thanks for pointing out that it's a different one.

Incredible nobody posted these: Two most famous Dylan covers... Maybe too mainstream?

Blow Leafs Blow! 😆🤣😂

I was reading that he left "McHale Navy" so he could do a part in the movie: "The Sand Pebbles" (1966)

Maybe for the small and intermediate markets. But the big markets, hell no! Yet... Concrete and asphalt = $$$$ BIG $$$$$ Still have to supply areas by truck. Also, weren't the first interstates created for national defense or safety... So they claimed under Eisenhower. They can land, take off planes on them if needed too???
