  1. Yes Jim - given our current QB, definitely a dome!
  2. I realize those things (windmills) are useful, but nothing beats Altamont Pass for sheer ugliness - plunked right at the entrance to CA's beautiful Central Valley region... Altamont Pass - Livermore, CA
  3. BGIOP's tingles are none of Mrs. Cravitz's business!
  4. So you are saying that if the Grand Jury comes back today with no indictment and the DA subsequently drops all charges, the Kanes are pleading guilty anyway? To WHAT???
  5. We have wind mills... A brief history of the Lackawanna Steel Company in Buffalo - when they decided in the late 1890's to move from Scranton to Western New York to take advantage of reduced shipping costs along Lake Erie, they employed Ontario Power Company president John Albright (of Albright-Knox Art Gallery fame) to buy the land without raising suspicion and fueling land speculation. He bought up all the land for a mere $1.1M in 1899, under the pretense of using the land for the upcoming Pan Am Exposition of 1901. (He would often take John Milburn, President of the Pan Am Expo, along on his purchase visits to add credence to the ruse - one anecdote, perpetuated in Lauren Belfer's City of Light, is that the land would be used to grow flowers for the exposition!) As you know (and can see in this ), the site is massive (at over 1300 acres, it is almost twice the size of Cornell University's Ithaca campus). The problem with that site is the exorbitant cleanup costs of all the toxic wastes, as well as what to do with the tremendous amount of infrastructure (railroad tracks, power grid rights of way, towers, aerial transmission cables, etc.) that traverse the property. Myself, I say it's a great site for a new football stadium - right on the lake, easy access off Route 5, Milestrip Road, and the NYS Thruway, and who cares about brownfields and removing toxic waste, when you're only gonna pave it all over for parking lots and use it 8-11 times a year?
  6. When did the City of Buffalo do that?
  7. fixed... State revokes new license of Kane cabbie Tough to work as a cabbie - with no drivers license!
  8. This is true - you do it by knowing what the opposing defense* is going to do... Shady Brady* & Bill Belicheat* (Brady's* a punk who'll get his* ass kicked this season - along with rest* of the Cheatriettes*.)
  9. You don't really need a no-huddle to outscore Tom Bundchen*, Bill Belicheat* & the Cheatriettes*...
  10. Sounds like you have a ton of good suggestions already. Let me just add that, weather permitting, don't miss the Maid of the Mist boat ride - it'll take you right into the center of the Horseshoe Falls. I know some have said do the Canadian side - but the bridges and the border patrol can be a hassle at times. Best to stay on our side, then do the Seneca Niagara Casino, where the booze is free. (You have to buy your drinks at the Canadian casinos!) The Naval Park is a great call - also puts you at the Erie Canal historic site, which is just starting to be developed - if you do make this an annual event, you'll get to see how long it takes to get anything built around here! If you're into architecture, do take in the Frank Lloyd Wright's Darwin Martin House - Darwin Martin Complex If you like Broadway shows, Chicago is at Shea's Performing Arts Center that weekend... Shea's That puts you in the theater district, and near the Chippewa Strip, which some folks like to frequent. Allentown is a bit more mature - the Chip Strip is mostly youngsters who drink too much beer before they start fighting and puking. You've already been told that Gabriel's Gate (in Allentown) has The BuffTown's best wings - you can maybe find some good jazz at Allentown Hardware or some of the other Allentown hot spots... GO BILLSSS!!!! 19 and 0 baby!!!!
  11. Maybin's financial affairs are none of Mrs. Cravitz' business.
  12. That is a trick question, DH - he won't! Bufftown Bills 34 Fagsboro* Fops* 0 19 and 0 baby!!! GO BILLSSS!!!! PosLUSZny!!!!!
  13. Well, he did take crayonz bait - hook, line, and sinker!
  14. Are you sure it's not Totie Fields? That would at least explain the stand-still.
  15. Someone killed Poz?
  16. Careful - I could be your next employer. Anyone on this board could.
  17. So you're saying that Whites Bay, who thinks he could be your next employer, cannot pass an English Regents exam?
  18. Whites Bay could be your next employer. Anyone on this board could.
  19. I guarantee you could not be mine. Every day is Engish class? Now, I know one should never end a sentence with a preposition, but f_ck off!
  20. SKOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOBY!!!!!!!!!!!!
  21. For that, we would need to re-sign Kelly Holcomb.
  22. funny...most would describe the coaching staff as severely zazie
