This is Gugny inviting his friend to sit down and enjoy a cup 'o Joe: God, Airplane! was the greatest movie ever! Oh... BTW... I have drank about a teaspoon of coffee in my whole 51 years of existence.

Energy drink, soda. That's it. Should change that to per week. I put zero... Because I go days, sometimes weeks withOUT caffeinated drink.

Exactly! It's a downward spiral into the wild west. Look at the Dallas road rage beat down, punch up. Dude, comes out brandishing a weapon. Now... Both are really to blame here... But really... That needed to be escalated with a firearm? YES, WTF was she doing slapping him up side the head AFTER he slapped her phone away? But really... Notice the piece he's brandishing. The only reason he's doing that is because, he does not know who else may be packing. This is how we solve traffic issues (which I believe she purposefully flaunted). Really?

Sorry... I am guilty of the finger pointing. I will try better not to do that. How do you get people to capture the real meaning? Stop thinking about themselves first. It's like a wild west saloon out there and nobody is checking their weapon. There has to be be full compliance. Heck, you can't even get people to wait @ a red light when there is no traffic around! What's the answer for the Surly Joe's of the world? There is no paranoia.

Yeah. What if Buffalo was NOT so snooty to the auto industry? Detroit still had it's problems... Now. Detroit's micro-climate is way more tempered and way more conducive to driving around in the dead of winter. Before anybody gets upset, remember, paved roads were a luxury. I assume if vehicles didn't exist , neither did plows. BUT Buffalo did invent the windshield wiper blade! BTW... How does one write the 00s clearly? LoL... Teens are teens, 20s, 30s, etc... The zeros a bit confusing, especially with this tough crowd!

Knows the pefect place to dispose of a 22 metric ton deck... During the cover of night is the only hitch. But trust him, he won't get caught and worked out all the hitches, including the darkness issue. ...Boy! Won't your neighbors be surprised in the morning!

Yep! Seems luck too. Look at all the local breweries. Then the big national ones smashed them. Now people are back to drinking the small stuff. We are doomed... Not sure what it is. Timing, luck, geography. Faired so well through Wars... Boom times. If you want to read a good book: https://www.amazon.com/Last-Fine-Time-Verlyn-Klinkenborg/dp/0226443353 More definitive, more academic than narrative: https://www.amazon.com/High-Hopes-Rise-Decline-Buffalo/dp/0873957350 Not being a HQ town hurt. During down turns in economy, companies retreat towards their Headquarters. Labor town @ disadvantage.

Yep... Before Tesla and the AC motor, current wars, etc... That's what took BFLo off. Cheap, close power. It was still break-in-bulk with water during the non-winter, rail... Which aided manufacturing. Steel not till 19 zeros. Buffalo did tell Henry Ford to pound salt first with the nascent automobile industry. The rest is history in Detroit. I guess we were banking on the buggy whip factories to win out! ?

I'd say Top 5, if NOT best ever episode on TV! LoL... I think they do kinda fly... But really low to ground. Minivan grill and truck windshield height! The Big Guy, Mr. Carlson was half right... Except domestic Butterballs® are couch potatoes: "Despite their weight, wild turkeys, unlike their domesticated counterparts, are agile, fast fliers. In ideal habitat of open woodland or wooded grasslands, they may fly beneath the canopy top and find perches. They usually fly close to the ground for no more than 400 m (a quarter mile)." He was from Honduras? He had too much wood? Couldn't speak English. Now He lost his -ecker in the process!

My brother drove a coke truck (coal) out of Tonawanda Coke. I think in W.Pa... He had a wild turkey crash through his window. Landed dead on his passenger seat. Feathers everywhere! Oh... I think it's a "troop" of turkeys. But mob is cool too! NSFW. Don't read if you are squeamish: https://nypost.com/2016/10/17/man-has-penis-removed-after-getting-it-stuck-in-a-bottle/

No not really. BFLo faired well during both Wars. BFLo was built for one thing: Break-in-Bulk bewteen Canal & Lakes. The final nail for that economy came in 1959. Powerwise... It was close to Falls. That's what helped BFLo. Black Rock was actually bigger for a time, then absorbed by BFLo. Sad. Think in terms that BFLo's positioning turned it into "Radiator Springs", streamlined transportation systems, improved infrastructure around it, technology to transfer power further away from the Falls (to NYC) were all nails in the original transportation economy and then manufacturing (cheap power) coffin. Yet... Buffalo was the first all paved city in the country... And for good reason, with an average of 100" of snow a year, it had to be hell for land travel on unpaved roads.

I don't get the "moral struggle" about paying for removal of something that is toxic. You would think there's a bigger moral struggle unloaded for free somewhere. I am a bit confused (yes, more than normal). Can you even burn rubbish/leaves/etc.. in Amherst? Ha! Speaking of llamas... When my sister moved into her Vermont house about 15 years ago... Part of the deal was to watch over the llama previous owners had. Until, they could move it. LoL... The thing hated my sister. I think my sister tried to be nice to it? Thing would hiss and spit. LoL... Only in Vermont!

I am joking!

Do you want smoke in your eyes making schmores? I think NOT!

Then McKinley got shot and they figured out how to transport that power. Read my links above if you have time. The canal might as well have been a 1000 miles away... It actually made matters worse for farmers not in canal district. Mix in the absence of religion... People forget Mormonism was founded in that Burned-over District. Natives hostile too. Senecas, not too friendly like the ones back east.

The Burned Over District vs. The Passed Over District: http://elektratig.blogspot.com/2009/02/burned-over-district-vs-passed-over.html?m=1 "[T]he remote, agricultural New York communities that became bulwarks of Free Soil . . . barely resembled the middle-class, evangelical, and Whig locales of the famed Burned-Over District covering the western parts of the state. Many of them, in fact, were isolated and economically stagnant – more passed-over than burned-over.. . . Each of [the Free Soil] counties was rugged, densely wooded, and among the last be settled in the state. Shallow, acidic soil made traditional staple agriculture difficult . . .. As the crow flies, some of these communities were quite close to the bustling Erie Canal, but the famed “artificial river” might as well have been a thousand miles away. In fact, its completion in 1825 actually made matters worse for farmers removed from the canal district."

LoL... I am still a bit skeptical, but you convinced me. To OP: Just burn that wood. And do what we did in Scouts when the campfire smoke got in your eyes. Say: "I don't like bunnies!" The wind will change and the smoke will blow in somebody else's eyes! Their problem now!

See! Fergy is living proof that it's safe! ? Burn baby burn!

Dude. It's PTSD. Get with the times! ?

Fly dump. It's the only way. One moral struggle for another. Betcha you have the good old stuff. It will leach arsenic into the environment. https://pubs.acs.org/doi/abs/10.1021/es0514702 Actually, it probably has already.

Wow... THEY had 25 at 1/2 and only 44 times with 5 left. This went south in quick BFLo fashion!

There is 5 million people in NZ. There are 10 million people from WI-IL-IN area... 325.25 million in US. Just saying.

Should I ask the question or get the pious one's all upset again... Maybe I will just read the article. 1996 was their last massacre? How many since? That's almost 25 freaking years ago. How many since? By the way you phrased it, I take zero?

Who's paying more?

Oh Tay! Not that there is anything wrong with it, but please try and keep your love life private. Hey it's 2019! OKAY! There is something wrong with it. Man @Foxx that's just plain nasty! And here I thought the Liberals were the only ones to get triggered. Strange times man, strange times!
