  1. No way. They'll know where to go to pop a cap in my ass! ๐Ÿ™
  2. (Disclaimer: No gifs, memes, or videos were used in formulating this thread reply.)
  3. I grew up in northeast Buffalo, and ate plenty of liver sausage growing up. That is the first time I have ever heard of frying it. I haven't looked too closely, but here in Canada the liver wurst available is much more like a pรขtรฉ (Pillers brand is my go to). On rye, with a strong onion. Spar's European Sausage & Meats on Amherst Street in Buffalo was where my father often shopped for cold cuts. I am surprised to see that fifty years later, it still shows up as operating.
  4. I know a cook who sails for Algoma Central Corporation, and on steak night she'll do up just as much thick sliced bologna as steak. Down easters and the sailors from Newfoundland would rather have bologna.
  5. Consider it making amends for the shabby treatment that Robert Foster received while a Buffalo Bill. A future HoF WR thrown on the junkpile. * ๐Ÿ˜‰
  6. $100 prepaid Visa card? Complete in a genuine imitation leather wallet...๐Ÿค”๐Ÿ˜‰
  7. If I was a suspicious sort...๐Ÿค”
  8. Well, that's nothing to Moen about... * (Dislaimer: No memes or gifs were used in the issuance of this comment.)
  9. I know. Evabody funny. Now you funny, too. Immediately, Belichick starts emoting like Frasier Crane. UNC stages 'My Fair Lady' as the Spring musical, Belichick in drag as Eliza Dolittle.
  10. At the initial listing, Miller took the agent down the left side property line, and went so far past the house that the agent was winded by the time they got back to the house...๐Ÿ˜‡
  11. Is there an efficiency motel in the southtowns? Sort of like that joint up on Maple Road in Amherst, where the Sabres always housed players 'on the bubble'? ๐Ÿค”
  12. 'Blew out' my foot. Amateur camera footage showed a second shooter on a grassy knoll...๐Ÿค”๐Ÿคฏ๐Ÿคซ Email. Sent. Rescinded. Sent again.
  13. Market it to the Ryan brothers. There will be a large contingent calling for McDermott's ouster any number of times this year. Chez Miller and Chez McDermott as a package deal. ๐Ÿค”
  14. Got it. The right combination of Cook and Allen traded away should get the Bills all seven. * Defense wins championships!
  15. On so many levels...๐Ÿ˜
  16. After secretly reading the 'McDaniel is toast' thread, Beane and McDermott quietly agree to only draft Ivy League walk ons. ๐Ÿค”๐Ÿ˜ณ
  17. Has C.J. Spiller got any distant relatives in the draft? Bills need an RB that can use ALL the gridiron.
  18. You'll be sorry when they unveil the 'Hall of Bills Heroes' in the new stadium. The statue of Bledsoe WILL be Bledsoe. ๐Ÿ˜
  19. Cheektowaga Sabres. ๐Ÿค” Sabreland in Wheatfield still standing? Pardon the picture, at least it isn't a video. ๐Ÿคจ
  20. Later in his Buffalo tenure, and last year for the Giants, Daboll reminded me of Chief Lutz from 'Beverly Hills Cop 2'. ๐Ÿคจ
  21. Years ago, 'Waldo' was a fellow who worked in the sheet metal department, and was often a participant at the afternoon break euchre game. The only thing was he would hem and haw about ordering up his partner's hand, to the extent everyone knew he didn't have the stones to order. That boy never would have lasted in the Canadian version of the game. P.T. was a veteran Lancaster Moose player, and if you didn't immediately pass or order, you were deemed as cross boarding. * Pinochle is a game that seems to demand that players pay attention. Euchre is a game that is loose enough that quite often by the third trick, someone is asking "what's trump, again?!"
  22. https://euchre.com/blog/euchre-variations/ Most every Great Lakes sailor and UK emigres know how to calculate cribbage scores with incredible speed. A Scotsman electrician I worked with would glance at his hand, and proclaim "41". When challenged, he would say, "Oh, correct, I miscounted. 36." This is why you use this board:
  23. Bicycle Cards years ago marketed a Euchre pack that included rules on all the many variations, and also included 'counter cards' that assist in keeping score. Any die hard euchre player knows how to keep score with just a two and a three card. An electrician I knew from up Peterborough way said there they favoured six hand (two teams of three). He also said that his grandparents could generally infer what each player held after the first trick (in four handed).
  24. Started off years ago playing the upstate NY version (if dealer's partner orders up, dealer can play along). When moving to the Canadian side for employment, discovered that ordering the partner up means you're going alone. Euchre remains a very popular game in Canada. I enjoy what I call 'Pennsylvania Dutch', which adds the sevens and eights and one joker. Joker is highest, and the sevens and eights often stymie lone hands. In this 33 card version, dealer cannot look at the hand dealt to themself until after the trump card is turned up. If joker is turned up, dealer names trump before looking at their hand.
  25. Jeebus, we got your drift the first time you said it. ๐Ÿคจ
