Asparagus. Definitely asparagus.

Don't tempt me...

I think it's time you go to bed for the night.

I came here from Facebook and this was the first thread I read. What I saw on Facebook is a friend of mine that sent me a reel, with this young blonde woman stating as fact, men have to visit the doctors office once a month to have their fore-skin trimmed. Oh the responses!!! "I let mine grow for a year, cut it off, made a wallet from it. Rub it, it becomes a suitcase for the holidays" "In Canada, it just freezes off for the winter" "I don't trim mine because it comes in handy as a sleeping bag when camping" Etc... Etc... Etc...

I tell ya. California is overdue for a major 7+ magnitude earthquake. The amount of pressure being released on the Pacific Rim and being built up on the US West Coast is crazy.

You didn't know that the spleen controls all leg movements?

Saw a report that the shooter said he had CTE and mentioned the NFL in a note found. Mayor Eric Adams said on Tuesday morning that the authorities “have reason to believe that he was focused on the N.F.L.,” which has offices at the tower, 345 Park Avenue. A three-page note found on the gunman mentioned the league, as well as claims that the man had suffered from the degenerative brain disease chronic traumatic encephalopathy, or C.T.E., from playing football, the police said. It asks that his brain be examined for signs of C.T.E. and accuses the league of concealing the dangers of the game. https://www.nytimes.com/live/2025/07/29/nyregion/nyc-shooting-manhattan?campaign_id=60&emc=edit_na_20250729&instance_id=159456&nl=breaking-news&regi_id=124688203&segment_id=202830&user_id=7d4d7d8af86b7cc8b09f3e6e69dc941f

Have you seen last Wednesday's South Park?

I voted nickel CB as Taron's heir apparent will be needed sooner than later.

I have many stories where the universe worked out for me, but I'll share the greatest example of the universe saying, you're good bro. Back in late 2012, I was thinking it was time for me to have a girlfriend. I had been single for 7 years to that point. I went to single dances, and I had a couple of dates, but nothing materialized. Then one day in December 2012, I see a new profile picture of a female friend of mine on Facebook. I see the picture, and I say to myself, "I have to get to know this woman better". When this woman put up her new profile picture, she said to herself, "I don't know what will come of this, but maybe I'll meet my forever man from my current friend group". She had done the Plenty of Fish and other dating apps, without much success. This woman, who I went to high school with coincidently but didn't say more than 5 words to each other, posted on how hard it was for her son to go back to Naval training after his first leave for the holidays On January 1st, 2013. I sent her a quick little message, just saying I'm here to support you if you ever want to talk. We began to Facebook Message each other. Mind you, she's living in Buffalo and I'm living in the Bay Area of California, close to Oakland. I suggested a phone call. She agreed to it. I'm thinking for the first call, 20 minutes tops would be a good call. The first call lasted an hour. More calls, longer in length and more frequent. All of this culminated in me asking her from California to be my girlfriend. The turning point was the Superbowl between the 49ers and Ravens. I'm at a local bar, she's at home. We're texting each other during the game, and she's calling the correct play before it's run nearly 100% of the time. I thought to myself, this woman is extremely good looking, very smart (She was a teacher at the time), and knows football! I ask her to be my girlfriend, and told her I loved her. She replied "I think I love you too". I moved back to Buffalo in July of 2013, some 6 months after we started dating. We were married in June 2014. She is my forever person, and I am hers. Cancer couldn't break the bond we have for each other. (She conquered the same cancer Jim Kelly had, 3 surgeries in one year and 18 continuous months of treatment. Her cancer is now cured). We tell each other often, she manifested me, and I manifested her. The universe definitely brought us together.

Why did you make a blatant attempt to copy Eminem's style?

Seems that some missed the fine print

I have to say, it was really nice to sit inside a dome when the Bills played Detroit last year. Ford Field is a really nice stadium. But I think the design of the new stadium will mitigate the elements as much as possible to give an equally pleasurable experience in Buffalo.

We have to keep a bucket of water near the door. When our dog comes in, we have to dip his paws in the water, then wipe them off with a towel.

Each team that had players do this, the Patriots get compensatory draft pics. Thanks players.

Fair point

I have an issue with moderation. I eat and drink WAY too much.

I sometimes buy products off of Facebook ads. Two products that have worked out beautifully is the Henson Shaver and blades, and the Remay Shave Gel Bar. Using those two products has my razor absolutely glide across my face, even in days old growth. No stubble left behind. And with the Henson Shaver and blades, I don't need to buy replacement blades or a new shaver for about 5 years. (Gone one year already on the stock I have). The Remay shave gel bars around around $25 for a 2 month supply. What's your shaving game look like?

Until we install a drainage system in our back yard, it's mud season for when our dog has to come inside from doing potty business outside. Plus, we've been in Mississippi when it's 40 degrees out. There's a warmth to 40s there. When it's 40 degrees in Buffalo, and snow melting, it's definitely a much colder feeling.

Summer by far. When it's February, my wife and I go to a southern destination for warmth. Either Mississippi (where eventually we will have a winter home), or a Caribbean cruise. Love the summer time activities. Fall is a close second. Nothing like going cider tasting when the leaves are golden. Spring and winter? Nah bro. I'm good.

Offense eats, Offense bad Defense eats, Defense bad The Bills this year are Bipolar. Someone tell me what to think.

If enough celebrities pass away, this year may rival 2016 in terms of celebrity deaths. (Prince, David Bowie, etc). Rest in peace Hulkster.

My high school Music Theory teacher and Orchestra conductor, Bill Staebell, was a bassist in LA before he moved back to Buffalo to teach in high school. He was my first bass teacher. The very first thing he taught me I still use some 40 years later. On the lower, wider frets, use your ring a pinky finger together. I do this and it makes playing the bass easier and more enjoyable (with someone of my limited hand size). The only songs this doesn't really apply are songs played by Geddy Lee. Natural Science for example.
