True words, lost a very close friend 3 days ago in a car accident. His was the only car involved, no alcohol or drugs, they think he had a heart attack behind the wheel. Have to go to the coast to see his wife and kids tomorrow. That is when it will really hit home, very shocking. Love and appreciate those you love while you can.

The people I knew were aware of the risk when they bought. The empathy remark was joking, I am not expecting you to feel bad.?

What was your score on the empathy test? ? The land was really cheap years ago and I know a few folks who bought some to have an affordable spot on the island. The folks I knew were just there part time and stayed in trailers, rvs, buses, etc. I have not stayed in touch to know what their situation is now. The Three Sisters mtns in central Or. are active volcanoes right near the city of Bend which has grown immensely in the last 30 years, they could go off tomorrow or not for hundreds of years. That is not gonna stop people from living in Bend. Look at the city of New Orleans located below sea level, I get nervous spending a couple nights camping on the coast in the tsunami zone, I couldn't imagine living in a hurricane zone below sea level.

Shady on verge of cementing HoF status?

He is not there yet imo. A couple more good years and he should be. -
I wonder how high that is? I think the high platform at Sherkston quarry was around 60 ft, is it still there? We used to dive off of it and my friend would do 1and a half's. We used to dive out of the grain elevators at the foot of Tifft street, I think that was around 60 ft as well. To get up there you had to climb four flights of stairs along the railings because the stairs had all been removed, if you fell through the middle you would fall all 4 stories. Unbelievably reckless and dumb looking back at it.

Dead & Company Summer Tour...anyone going?
Turk71 replied to The Poojer's topic in Off the Wall Archives
That's too bad, been to over 300 Dead shows and can't remember any that were cut short. I remember 2 shows where people were hit by lightning and was in Noblesville when they cancelled the 2nd Deer Creek show, but the only show I remember being cut short was Steve Miller at Park West Utah when a huge lightning rainstorm suddenly came over the mountain and everybody fled. -
Wife and I went to the Eugene Super regional, had a great time. It was great to see talented players playing for the love of the game and their team, reaffirmed why we both play, love, and support sports. Oregon is playing now on Espn in Ok City. Go Ducks!

Dead & Company Summer Tour...anyone going?
Turk71 replied to The Poojer's topic in Off the Wall Archives
My wife and I will be at the Gorge, Autzen, and Shoreline, the Gorge is my favorite venue as well (Red Rocks is #2). We will also be at the Gorge for Phish and DMB this summer. I saw the Dead with Jerry at Autzen 12 times in the 80s and 90s. Going to see Jethro Tull in Troutdale and Bend next weekend, concert season is here! Buffalo 77 was where it all began.⚡ -
I respect that, I umpired a kids baseball game once and will never do that again.
-
I saw that, I don't usually watch NBA because of the refs a how arbitrarily they can apply the rules. The easiest sport to fix imo.
-
I thought James moved sideways when KD jumped. Good call. The refs have missed obvious fouls on both sides imo.
-
Weird, The Grateful Dead sold that place out regularly. Warriors give up a lot of rebounds.

Would like to see the Bills workout with Pittsburg

Turk71 replied to Estro's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I laughed at your post because it is hilarious, most evidence suggests he has a chance to be great actually. Evidence is something real, not something you make up in your head. A chance is any chance at all. What are you saying? ??⚡? -
People should be worried about our Depth

If you are worried about your depth you are not very deep, you're just fakin it. -

Roseanne Show cancelled by ABC after racist tweet
Turk71 replied to ChevyVanMiller's topic in Off the Wall Archives
Reread what I wrote, I never said before the tweets, MarkVader came up with that interpretation on his own. -
Roseanne Show cancelled by ABC after racist tweet
Turk71 replied to ChevyVanMiller's topic in Off the Wall Archives
ABC has millions and millions of reasons to cancel it. $$$$$$$ Good riddance to that racist scumbag pos, this country is ignorant enough without her garbage. -
Joe Muscato taught me and a couple friends how to box as teenagers in South Buffalo. He and his brother Phil were top 10 heavyweight contenders from Dunkirk. I remember Cooney fighting Holmes, the 'great white hope' Don King labeled him. He was a good puncher, not as good a defender. He only lost 3 fights I think, Holmes Spinks and Foreman.

Bogus noncall on that last goal, so obvious.

Not a Capitals fan in the least, but I really do not want Vegas to win in their first season. Just doesn't seem fair to all the other expansion teams who struggled to build a team from scratch.
