We went all out for our trip last Spring and had private drivers and guides for almost everything we did. It was certainly expensive, but there is no way we could have gotten so much done without taking on that extra expense. It was all arranged by someone my SIL uses to take groups of college students on educational trips (Yeah, not a bad perk for a job!). I’m not sure how to find the right driver, but it sounds like you are on the right path for this situation. .

There were dozens of Bills fans just on my flight, and one lonely but nice couple from Jacksonville. Enjoy Paris! We went in May and I absolutely loved it. You are traveling like my wife organized it, and you’ll be glad you got it all in. I’m just winging it this trip, and I’m in desperate need of a quick nap after zero sleep on the way over. A little nap before lunch can’t hurt.

I am currently sitting at the airport bar with a lot of time before my flight. I love airport bars! Nobody looks at you funny if you’re having a drink as the sun rises or sets. That reminds me of a HUGE rugby tournament in Savanah, GA at St. Patricks day. Teams from about 40 states, and my old boys team won it. Getting hammered in the airport bar as return flights were staggered, one guy we had to load into a wheelchair and told the flight attendant he’d been hit in the head in the tournament but had been cleared by the bartender….I mean DOCTOR to fly. His flight to Chicago went smoothly, unfortunately he didn’t wake up until Milwaukee. Oops! 😂 I was dating my now wife and the time and told her if she wanted out after meeting my friends, I would understand! I’ll look for the info on Saturday when I get there in case there is some flexibility. I’d love to meet up, but I need to get settled before I can commit to anything. Right now I’m just hoping the Tube is as easy as everyone says. Thank you, YouTube! I feel a little better after a few of those clips.

Good eye! You saw that coming!

BINGO!!!

Exactly.

You really need to get a grip on the math thing based upon nothing but wild assumptions without a whit of actual knowledge. Explain dark matter to me, then tell me about math. You will be the first. Hard to prove there is something else out there. FAR harder to prove there is not.

I totally agree on taking the long view. It’s like owning certain luxury cars, a couple needs three or four of them, because something is always in the shop! In this case, we may need an Uber for a week or two.

We are second in the league in scoring, behind only the team we just stomped. They put up 70 in a joke of a game, so that point stat may be misleading. The guy has four whole NFL games under his belt, and he’s made some nice contributions. Maybe you should be a Bears fan? That would give you more ammo! No need to try so hard.

Not me, the offense is rolling!!! I don’t care who makes it work, as long as it works. Stats are not the entire story. Tom Brady spread the ball all over, and it seemed to work for him. How can you be upset with the results? It’s a team game.

Is it 20% off a single item purchase gift card? No wonder Bed Bath & Beyond went out of business!

Like, for his birthday? That would piss me off too!

That would be a helluva great new start for some smart football guys to work with! YIKES! …..so they will mess it up. 🤷‍♂️

I will act as OJ the detective, scouring golf courses everywhere looking for the REAL killer! But in this case…..🍺 I Spy A Jaguar will be our new game! Losing wouldn’t be an awful thing.

Somewhere, Ernie Adams is smiling. 😋

This was my first thought about his game yesterday. Very well played by both guys. To be honest, I expected Cook to pull away, but I don’t remember who caught him. I should probably look again. Anyway, I want to see way more of THAT, with him breaking loose!

The flight back will be even longer for me, but I’m hoping I’m so exhausted I can sleep. I’ve found I have a harder time sleeping on the way TO a distant destination and I arrive about 8am, so that is a LONG day to power thru unless I’ve had SOME significant sleep. Regardless, looking forward to figuring out how to get around and having a GREAT time! Getting close!!!

Random thought/question here….we went to Europe in the spring and initially I could log into TBD with no problems. As we moved from town to town I started getting this BANNED notice when I clicked on TBD. I know this has happened to others as well. I wonder if London will allow me into TBD, or if it will pop up as BANNED again? I’m sure there is a setting or something somewhere, but for now I’ll just cross my fingers. 🤞

No offense, but you may be unaware that we are 3-0 since I started wearing the lucky Bills T-shirt I caught at the home opener a couple years ago and make nachos. That is indisputable. You’re welcome! 😋

I heard it, but I didn’t see it. Traffic was insane and we were still waiting in line to get inside. Ahh, how the memories of Bills fans are littered with these kinds of memories!

This is not about whether we will have to replace him or not, but it did seem that he was in better control of his emotions yesterday. I prefer the less excitable OC leading the offense. Josh doesn’t need over the top emotions setting the tone.

He’s just a troll, let it go.

So, that is probably more thumbs up than thumbs down, I guessing? Apologies, this day of me largely ignoring family here for a birthday party has taken a toll on me. I just kept bringing up bottles of wine for….”us”. 🍷

“Is it safe?” Dustin Hoffman knows what I mean. 😋 Was 48-20 enough to tamp down the “realists”? Never too high, nor too low. It’s a long season, and then it gets exciting! That feels great to type as a Bills fan.
