  1. They tried to give the NFL a bad name too! Thank God we dodged that.
  2. American is saving money by using contract workers. He's not working for your father's Piedmont Airlines. They're not the only ones. The guy must be a real light weight to be able to get drunk on what they're paying him.
  3. Whatever The Costco brand is, seems to work fine. I understand that TP and Cashews are there most popular items.
  4. Anyone who can afford ticket(s) AND have enough left over to get drunk must be doing something right.
  5. Really NOT impressed with a high 5th. We need options now, and we gave one away.

  7. We may joke about it BUT having Thanksgiving in October makes a lot of sense. Think of all the travel issues we would avoid if the holiday was far away from the end of November? It's important to give Thanks, but it could be done at an earlier date.
  8. I was thinking that too, another ball bearing woman!
  9. 2 things may have happened...you as* grew, and/or your appetite for ice cream has changed.
  10. Thought it was a dumb move when AJ left but I also don't see him as a savior of our season, had he stayed.
  11. Can't imagine THEM being there, so no problem!
  12. 2x. Boxing day is in June.
  13. So does she walk with a limp? That would be fair!
  14. 37 Choate St.?
  15. Can't imagine where they got the energy to do all that stuff at the last minute. When I was growing up, there were no artificial trees. My Mom would never allow the tree to go up till 12/23. Reason being that it had to last for the 12 days of Christmas. By January 7th, it was one dry tree. Never had any issues with that, but in hindsight, it was not very safe to keep it that long. One year, we bought the tree, had it in a bucket of water in the unheated garage, when it came time to bring it inside it was frozen in the bucket. Had to wait a day for it to thaw out. Very much like the Christmas Story movie.
  16. Another Mississippi Ho story! It was entertaining till I got to the part about the kids. That's sad, especially because of the kids.
  17. My Dad had to buy me an electric train for Christmas, I think '49, I would have been 2+ years old. So every year "Santa" would bring me the train, and when the tree came down, Santa picked it up for "next year" So the first train was a steam engine freight type. About 52-53 Lionel introduced a Diesel. My Dad have to get that for me. Same deal, Santa bought it, and it went away after the tree came down. As he was putting the new diesel train up, my Mom asked him, where the steam engine was? Dad had traded it in for the diesel, without my Mom knowing. Mom said NO WAY! Santa does not trade away a child's trains! So my Dad had to go back any buy the steam engine train back. Now I had two train sets, and that was fine with me. A couple of years later, I remarked that I thought a certain coal hopper used to be black, and now it was maroon red? Mom flashed dad a look, and several years later, I heard the "rest of the story." RIP to your Dad! All Dad's are special, and most people think theirs is the most special of all.
  18. It was in code too, to throw the Cheatriots off.
  19. Answer the freakin phone, while I'm standing there. If the calls are that important route them to a "call center." Are you listening Wegmans??
  20. All I can say is, he was the NO1 QB exiting training camp. Have to hope that the coaches saw something good in him? He'll have another chance to "excel" this week. Oh God!!!
  21. I thought Canada's Halloween was last month?
