  1. In my heart, winning or losing comes second to:

     

    the excitement of flying back to BUFF, Saturday night at Danny's and cruisin' the RV lot, the tailgates, the opening day "fever", the charging Buffalo , the Pinto, seeing old friends and making new ones, "real" wings, Blue light, and the emotional high when I first walk into the stadium and relive so many memories.

     

    Yes - it's very disappointing when we lose any game. But I always appreciate that I lived another year to come back and see my team run out onto the field to thousands of screaming fans.

  2. Isn't it heartening that he "chose" to die in his own bed rather than in the hospital connected to all kinds of tubes and surrounded by strangers. This old stubborn Italian man wanted to leave this world with his dignity intact. Good for him! And good for him that you were there at the end.

     

    Letting go will be much harder for you than it was for him. But perhaps you can find strength from all the prayers that are being sent your way.

  3. It was absolutely amazing to see. The fireworks beforehand didn't mean much because it was already daylight. Video just doesn't do it justice. So glad I hauled my butt out of bed at 5am. It may well be the only chance I'll ever have to see something like that in person.

     

    I have no good memories of the structure - but I know how I'd feel if it were the Ralph I was watching - so I understood the emotion of the moment for all the CB fans who were around me.

  4. GEOGRAPHY OF A WOMAN

     

     

    Between 18 and 22, a woman is like Africa - half discovered, half wild, fertile and naturally beautiful!

     

     

     

    Between 23 and 30, a woman is like Europe - well-developed and open to trade, especially for something of real value.

     

     

     

    Between 31 and 35, a woman is like Spain - very hot, relaxed, and convinced of her own beauty.

     

     

     

    Between 36 and 40, a woman is like Greece - gently aging, but still a warm and desirable place to visit.

     

     

     

    Between 41 and 50, a woman is like Great Britain, with a glorious and all-conquering past..

     

     

     

    Between 51 and 60, a woman is like Israel - has been through war, doesn't make the same mistakes twice, and takes care of

    business.

     

     

     

    Between 61 and 70, a woman is like Canada - cool, self-preserving, but open to meeting new people.

     

     

     

    After 70, she becomes Tibet - wildly beautiful, with a mysterious past and the wisdom of the ages.... an adventurous spirit and a thirst for spiritual knowledge.

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

    THE GEOGRAPHY OF A MAN

     

    Between 1 and 80, a man is like Iran - ruled by nuts.

     

    THE END

  5. A better idea might be to convert the IRA into a Roth IRA and then start making contributions to it, taking advantage of the generous tax benefits. Eventually you'll leave your job and you'll want to roll your 401(k) into something not controlled by your former company -- i.e., your IRA.

     

    Very good advice!
