WhoTom

Early 70s - Rich Stadium was pretty new. I was around ten, so I don't remember much about the game, to be honest, but I was really excited to see my favorite running back. I think his name was Orenthal something or other. I come from a family of Browns' fans (the Bills didn't exist when Dad and my older siblings were young), but I liked the Bills, so my sister and brother-in-law took me to a few Bills games. (They also took me to some Braves and Sabres games at The Aud.)

He's no Gregg Williams.

Obviously they're not going to tell him that he's trade bait if that's what they're planning, so what he's been told is irrelevant. With that said, I have no doubt that he WILL be the guy this year.

That reminded me of a Guy Noir line: "Her pants were so tight I could count the change in her pocket."

"I must have gotten it from using a public toilet."

My wife wanted two dogs. I didn't want any dogs. So we compromised: we have two dogs. ? But seriously, I like dogs. We got a puppy shortly after we got married, but when she died at 15 years old, we decided together that we wouldn't get another one. At the time we were both working and the dog was home by herself all day. Years later, when my wife started working from home, she wanted a dog, so we got Shadow - a four-year-old lab mix. (His family moved and couldn't take the dog, so they brought him back to the pound.) A couple of years later the wife thought Shadow needed a buddy. I insisted that I didn't want a second dog, so we went the foster route. She brought home a puppy who latched right on to Shadow, and Shadow accepted the big brother role. As you can imagine, that ended up as a "failed foster" - we adopted the pup. They're both good dogs and they get along great, but now that my wife and I both freelance, we have time for travel, and the dogs complicate that. So if you're considering a second dog, think about what you want to be doing 10 or 15 years from now, and ask how a dog will impact that. Here they are, by the way - Rocky and Shadow:

As I was walkin' 'round Grosvenor Square, Not a chill to the winter but a nip to the air, From the other direction she was calling my eye, Could be an illusion but I might as well try, might as well try. She had rings on her fingers and bells on her shoes, And I knew without askin' she was into the blues. She wore scarlet begonias tucked into her curls, I knew right away she was not like other girls, other girls.

Yay.

As if Coors Light isn't watered down enough already.

Some come to laugh their past away Some come to make it just one more day Whichever way your pleasure tends If you plant ice you're gonna harvest wind Roll away, the dew Roll away, roll away the dew Roll away, roll away the dew Roll away, roll away the dew I'll tell you where the four winds sleep Like four lean hounds the lighthouse keep Wildflower seed in the sand and wind May the four winds blow you home again

"Some balls are held for charity and some for fancy dress. But when they're held for pleasure they're the balls that I like best." Oh, wait - I thought this was the lyrical response thread.

Depends on how they're rolled.

Well, baby used to stay out all night long She made me cry, she done me wrong She hurt my eyes open, that's no lie Tables turn and now her turn to cry Because I used to love her, but it's all over now Because I used to love her, but it's all over now Well, she used to run around with every man in town She spent all my money, playing her high class game She put me out, it was a pity how I cried Tables turn and now her turn to cry Because I used to love her, but it's all over now Because I used to love her, but it's all over now

Unless you're a drug cartel, or the tobacco industry, or Wal-Mart, or Amazon ...

Buy her a roll of bubble wrap. Sounds like she needs a hobby.

Woke up this morning with light in my eyes And then realized it was still dark outside It was a light coming down from the sky I don't know who or why Must be those strangers that come every night Those saucer shaped lights put people uptight Leave blue green footprints that glow in the dark I hope they get home alright Hey, Mr. Spaceman Won't you please take me along I won't do anything wrong Hey, Mr. Spaceman Won't you please take me along for a ride

This would have been helpful earlier in my career:

He's the one named "Mike."

You reached for the secret too soon, you cried for the moon. Shine on you crazy diamond. Threatened by shadows at night, and exposed in the light. Shine on you crazy diamond. Well you wore out your welcome with random precision, Rode on the steel breeze. Come on you raver, you seer of visions, Come on you painter, you piper, you prisoner, and shine!

Yer so bad...

I wonder if his wife is disappointed too.
