  1. I betcha we had them in SouthTowns. I remember snows well over my head as a child. Now I am a big dumb lug over 6 feet. 😏 Another big blizzard was 1985. There was the one in October 2006 that dumped 4 feet. 4 feet in October with leaves still on trees is like 10 feet in February. AmeriCorps had to come in and help places like Birchfield in West Seneca. All the old trees on the street I grew up on were wiped put. Canopy totally gone today. Places like Birchfield along BFLo Creek in Ebenezer/W.Seneca looked like Nagasaki... Anyway... The only reporting that got done back then was from the official station @ Airport in Cheektowaga and they are almost out of the historical, traditional SouthTowns SnowBelt. BFLo averages 95" a year. Southtowns and into the SoutherTier is closer to 150-200" AVERAGE into the hills alee of The Lake. 219 would always close... Etc... Big snows were there, just didn't make anything of it... Avoided it, went around those microclimates 😉: @BringBackFergy
  2. Even worse... I never return an Aldi cart... NEVER! I leave it anywhere... ...Gives a homeless person a quarter. Hope they change it to a dollar! You'd never see me return a cart. Maybe she is "quietly quitting?" Sounds like a grand plan!
  3. 2014. November. The Jets game that got moved was another one that dropped 7 feet. I made it in on Friday afternoon just as the end loader was finishing my father's street in S.Cheektowaga/W.Seneca. It was pretty bad. Brought the snowshoes in case we'd of had to park off main road. That was Snowvember I. This year Snowvember II. Well... The cold blast will freeze The Lake and shut off the snow machine. Then a ground blizzard for late January. Hey! Just like 1977! 😏
  4. You did good! Short, elderly people at the mercy of the milk cartel! BigDairy won't win! 😊 That's why they should add these to shopping carts:
  5. 😆... I have been worried about 3rd and long since at least 1976... ***** Bert Jones!
  6. "...Everybody here is out of sight They don't bark and they don't bite They keep things loose, they keep things alight Everybody was dancin' in the moonlight Dancin' in the moonlight Everybody's feelin' warm and right It's such a fine and natural sight Everybody's dancin' in the moonlight We like our fun and we never fight You can't dance and stay uptight It's a supernatural delight Everybody was dancin' in the moonlight..."
  7. "...We're mad at you and we're all posting up and looking tough..." 😆 🤣 😂
  8. If everyone waits in their seat, it takes longer to de-plane: https://viewfromthewing.com/passengers-admonished-to-stay-seated-until-its-their-rows-turn-to-deplane/
  9. Simply on wrong side of Lake. Or football is played in wrong season.
  10. They should come in tomorrow morning before Noon... Windchill is overrated.
  11. Amazing... You are a no fuss, no muss guy at the town agora, but turn into Chatty Cathy in the spice aisle. There's hope for you after all! 😉 Alphabetized spices is no logical order? If you're looking for the cardamom... Look in the "CA's". Upper left depending how long the shelves are. 😉 😜 And anyway... Everyone should be banned from public spaces if they don't step into the space first with the top thing on their minds: "Consideration of others." That's all it takes folks and usually everything goes fine. Yup, that's right... No punch-ups in the cereal aisle with the 90 year old grumpy fella. Really. How hard is it to wait and stay outta people's way? Whatya, all live alone on a desert island? @GoBills808 you don't have to answer this! 😉
  12. It's why the early Natives packed up every fall and stayed near Batavia in the winter. 😉
  13. Very localized. Huge localized storms always happened. We just didn't live there with so many and communicate about it so openly. It snowed at the airport, and that was the official. Nobody payed attention that they were getting 7 feet of snow in the Boston Hills just 20 miles away... Yet... This storm will be a system...
  14. Amazing how much snow was being thrown. In all fairness, the seats weren't cleared... A great way to make room and get rid of it!
  15. And controversial. Just like Tuck Rule. RIP...
  16. McD trying to get Josh to play win-lose, middle outcome before halftime and Josh is playing win-win, high risk/high reward... Thank God it worked for him or McD would have deflated Josh's tires! He alluded to that after the game. Both McD & Josh can learn from each other and meet in the middle. That's like the 4th time Josh moved to right and threw across his body for a successful TD. NOT sure how many more times that will work without giving it a rest for a while. YET, Josh is probably the only one with the physical attributes to make that throw successful. McD doesn't see his flaws. He's the coach, leader, the process is to follow HIS plan.
  17. Yeah... Like burn 2 time outs in the 3rd quarter. Glad he didn't follow through on that plan this time.😉
  18. You know... The long term future of the Bears will be a domed stadium in the Suburbs. The whole goal here is to get a SuperBowl.
  19. And it never should be coached out of him totally. The reckless streak that is. "Necessity is the mother of taking chances." ~Mark Twain
