And the manufacturers have already paid federal taxes on all that inventory sitting around.

DUDE!! Great looking place.

It's been almost 40 years since the last time I was there - My father's parents owned an island on Lake Nippissing ONT. No power, no running water, no telephone. Man, the quiet was just outstanding. And the fishing (walleye, pike, muskie) was tops. 43in, 37# muskie was the last fish I caught there.

Holy moly!! I used to know the north Dallas area like crazy - I'd prolly get lost now.

GBID - How many lanes is Hwy121 now? I remember when it was just a 2 lane non-toll road connecting 75 to 35. Most of it was farm land.

Stick a fork in that idea. Way past done.

Blow torch to nuke the mothers right then and there!

You prolly dont want to see milk or any milk products for a while, eh?

Do my own yard work - I'm by myself. I'm like as some others have posted here - like the exercise and it is a bit therapeutic. Takes about 1hr20min to mow complete. Another 15 to trim/ blow. My only bite is in spring and fall when grass really grows. Sometimes it's 3 times in 10 days. The other thing is I don't like how short the lawn services cut the grass. Neighbors have service and they struggle keeping the grass alive and have to water. Had 7 yards of mulch brought in last spring. Got it all down in 2 half days. Not much better than a cold beverage when the job you did yourself is complete. I can understand the time v family argument tho.

Weeee!!

Not sure which made my stomach turn worse. This picture or the Jacksonville fries with that photo montage.

Hey - I treated myself to the Columbus Blue Jacket hockey game last Saturday.

Not sure how Tom Rinaldi can do these stories. I think I would be about two steps short of a basket case. But, I'm glad that he does them.

If he doesn't play in the AP tournament in mid-March I can't see him playing in the Masters. Also, I hope he doesn't play in the AP as I have tickets for the weekend. Don't want to deal with that.

Its even worse when you have to ask someone else in the store to read the label for you when you forgot to carry the readers with you.

Hey - if you cant beat them, join them. I get my readers / cheaters at Meijer. Have about half a dozen scattered between the house, work, car.

Prayers to you and your family NG. Godspeed Danny.

I work right across the highway from the Bud plant. The smell comes by quite often. Reminds me of the General Mills plant in downtown Buffalo and the smell of Cheerios.

Sour cream chicken enchiladas

Read in the paper where he did mention the pace of play threw him off a bit (3-somes v pairs). I could see some of that. Torrey South is no piece of cake either. Did he say that he was going to play the next 4 - 5 weeks? Let's see what his game is like then.

Just watched one about how John Spano "hustled" his way into owning the NY Islanders. What about doing one on John Rigas? I'd love to see one done about the St Bona basketball team and Bob Lanier. If my research is correct, St Bona is the smallest school in the amount of enrollment that has played in a Final Four.

Great question and responses. Made me think a bit. Was married at the time, now I'm not. Lived in TX at the time, now I'm not. The friends I had in TX have moved on, as have I. Had a great dog (black Lab - Tex), now she's gone. I've seen teams in other cities that I lived in, that I did not cheer for, win championships (TX, NC, OH) and wonder what it would be like if a Buffalo team would win. After watching the great players from that era play and retire, I've gone to Canton to see their induction in the HoF. I've picked up two activities that I truly love - cycling and yoga. I learned to appreciate the simple things and the finer things. I learned to appreciate true friendship.

Junior in HS and fireman with Bowmansville FD. School let us out early. I got all the kids on the street together and we held hands walking home. Looked like a bunch of elephants walking together. One of the guys from the FD came by in snowmachine to pick me up and take me to fire station. Met my dad there as he just made it out of the city and you couldn't get past Transit and Genesse. Spent the next 4 days at fire station. Slept on the hose bed of one of the trucks. Shuttled supplies to people that couldn't get out and got supplies for the 300-400 people that we had in our banquet room. The two of us walked the 2 miles from the fire station back home once everything settled down. At the intersection of Pleasant View and Central Ave was able to touch the signal light in the middle of the intersection. IIRC, we did not have school for a couple of weeks afterwards.

I get some sort of weird enjoyment watching some dufus trying to maneuver their land yacht in a parking lot. They back out of a parking space with half a car to spare and then split the steering system in half trying not to hit the car in front of them when going forward. Learn the size of your car!!!

My parents have taken 3 of these and loved them.
