  2. The Rock - http://www.navyseals.com/community/article...cle.cfm?id=8321 The "Buffalo" & "Cougar" are on the job too: http://www.forceprotectioninc.com/
  3. I gotta read PPP more often - good one CTM - and that was before the Denver exhibition
  4. How's that Jane Fonda eco-bus tour going ?
  5. Cynical & Agressive ? Sounds like my M-I-L Here's a suggestion - don't start with a premise and try to improve on it
  6. Just charge them $3.75 a beer and kick them back out - they're so stoned they won't know the difference and Buddy's food tab will be paid through 2007
  7. They played the third quarter ?
  8. As the season winds down - the fakers are easier to pick out when their ineptitude starts to shine through The first 80 people in the Pick'em pool got all three Saturday games right Of the first 100 players - only ganesh and gringo starr picked the Bills - or did they randomize and have a brainless computer pick them ? If not, three cheers for optimism
  9. Before the Internet "Bloomed" Thank You
  10. Some old jokes just get old !
  11. Pound Wise & Penny Foolish ? http://www.suntimes.com/output/novak/cst-edt-novak05.html I've never been on the receiving end of the big guns - but tales told of "no joy" at impact point Here's some history - read down to Korea & Vietnam http://navysite.de/bb/bb62.htm The technology is time proven - plus add into today's UAV's - a spotter's dream. Plus the big "tubs" hold a lot of cruise missles
  12. I'd go for the just give-it-to-them but there far fewer kool-aid drinkers back then
  13. No one knows if he's dead or not (except him). Keep picking them off !
  14. The Pakistani military worries about India (which has a defined) border much more than they care about which local warlord owns that fuc*ing mountian/valley at the end of the world. Seeing as Pakistan doesn't get all (or any) news from CNN/BBC etc. - the locals in said lost acres of probably don't care as long as there is no shrapnel falling on them and killing their livestock. Western standards don't apply in other lands Pakistan & India (as a sub-continent) are rapidly growing economically but the ingrained culture doesn't always keep up. And - One more bad guy is dead - what's the down side ? Arrest & Trial ?
  15. SDS said I can have this one (if I ever earn an intern) http://www.stadiumwall.com/index.php?showtopic=35838
  16. Please post somewhere else - the Sabres play 40+ games most of which are meaningless until about February and the UB Bulls (Class of 76) get the support they deserve The Bills play 8 games a season that everyone there cares about !
  17. Now - who's going to complain that he didn't have his fair day in court ? http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20051204/ap_on_...zkxBHNlYwN0bQ-- Why didn't those Marines drop a gernade in Saddam's hidey-hole ? There is a point in the world situation where bad people just have to go away - forever
  18. I concur - there are so many "big" money coaches available - sometimes living on their reputation The Bills need a young go getter - strike two so far Discuss Tom D. as you wish
  19. I've been there three times this season and it is always busy - even without the Bears' fans. It's somewhat annoying having two games on. No food is a bummer but they have been selling slices at halftime. It's still worth the trip.
  20. If you bought the extended warranty - the bird in the sky would be covered
  21. Hogs at the trough - it will never change At least in CA there is the initiative process (flawed as it is) - but it offers a ray of hope NYS - Shut Up & Pay - I'll be back there in a second - Bill's Country !
  22. Nice how the comments include "waterfront" and "casino" - like those two areas of interest would make a difference. I'm surprised "Peace Bridge (new) wasn't included. New York's problems are so ingrained they make California (my recent domicile) look like a paradise. After a 14 month period of posturing - sales tax is going up anyway - why bother ? My father always said, "Who'd want to be Mayor of this City? " when he lived in it. I'll still move back in a minute when my wife gives me the OK - pretty much still the best place on Earth - politics are the same everywhere.
  23. Despite the humor of the Pythonesque sketches of cow flinging - one tactic of siege warfare was to literally hurl diseased animal corpses into besieged areas to spread whatever basic, bad bacterium available into an already closed, unsanitary enviorment. In the midst of David McCullough's "1776" about events surrounding the Revolutionary War siege of Boston - "On November 25, the British sent several boatloads of the ragged poor of Boston, some 300 men, women and children acroos the Back Bay depositing them on the shore near Cambridge for the rebels to deal with. They were a heart rendering sight. Many were sick and dying, "the whole in a most miserable and piteouis condition," wrote (George) Washington. According to one explanantion, General Howe was making room for the reinforcements expected to arrive any time. But it was also said that the numbers of the sick had been sent "with the design of spreading smallpox through this country and camp," an accusation that Washington refused to belive. But when another 150 desperate people were dispatched from Boston, as smallpox continued unabated there, Washington described the disease as a, "weapon of defense they are using against us." Only the names and faces change - The victors write the history WP = Greek Fire
  24. Obviously a clear thinker -
  25. then they played the game and the Bills didn't show up. Met lots of people from back home including some old friends who I never thought would make the trip. Hammered and his wife were there, Pinto Kenny, The Dean, The South Buffalo Drinking team plus all the locals and SOCAL folk plus a huge chunk of the Losman family (they're from Venice, Ca about 80 miles north in LA.) The food and drink were great - I didn't go to any of the night parties but everyone seemd to be happy and the weather was picture perfect. Then they played the game ! See you all December 11th
