  1. Thanks for the heads up on "Greatest Events in WW2." I love documentaries and watched the first 3 episodes in one sitting. As many documentaries that I've seen on WW2, there is always something new. The fact that before the Germans go into France, the conservative German generals thought it would be a good idea in that it would not work and thus would put an end to war. However, one general came up with the plan of going through the Ardennes and that proved very successful. Also, there was quite an impact of a WW1 hangover, as many soldiers on both sides were a bit non-committal. This tended to affect their battlefield decisions. The Smithsonian channel just had a series "The Pacific War in Color." I DVR'd it. It is also very good. Not sure if they will run it again. I think they chose to run it because of Dec 7th.
  2. I am surprised you confused me with my dopplenamer. After reading through the rest of this thread, it appears you have a lot more options than you did a couple years ago.
  3. They are not a team. They are just a group of individuals.
  4. Finally unveiled, the real cause of Global Warming.
  5. I'm surprised at the end of the day, your purchases were still in your truck. Maybe the close spot made the difference.
  6. Ken Lay had to get his start somewhere!
  7. While I like a lot of what Elvis did, I would not call myself a fan. I always thought of him as just some guy singing who became popular. However, the more things I see about his career, I find he was quite innovative. He crossed over music genre's more because he wanted to, than just to sell records. Many times he was at odds with what the higher ups thought he should be doing. Maybe you meant more from your statement than I read into it.
  8. I've got the same thing but I interpreted any phone connected to any solid line, like cable, as land line.
  9. Sadly, they are probably going to just ride out this year as best they can. Being against the cap makes decent trades hard. Okposo should really consider retirement but if he doesn't, they should buy him out. That is probably what keeps him going. They can loose a majority of this roster if they choose to not resign players for next year. I might think the reluctance in bringing up Cozens is it might affect him long term and I believe he might then qualify for the expansion draft. If you haven't been to this site before, it really does a good job. https://www.capfriendly.com/teams/sabres
  10. I think there was a thread similar to this last year. I remember writing " I get a gallon of orange juice, drink it all, go to bed and cover myself with enough blankets to sweat all night." In the morning I usually feel pretty good. Heavy duty Tropicana is my OJ choice.
  11. Something happened on the ground between Rudolf and Garrett that triggered all this. What was it?
  12. Good idea, bad idea, makes no difference? Personally, I don't need the warning but I am really interested in how some sections of society are going to react to this. https://summit.news/2019/11/14/disney-puts-outdated-cultural-depictions-trigger-warning-on-old-movies/
  13. It did not say, how many the Greatest Hits package sold. It was a reference to their other records. BTW, that was from a poster at Steve Hoffman forums. Or what I refer to as " the internet black hole for time."
  14. Oh *****. I just aged 5 years.
  15. I am guessing this is US sales only, as I would have thought Fleetwood Mac would have been listed somewhere at the start. Here is a statement from someone on a forum about Fleetwood Mac. My English Fleetwood Mac Greatest Hits album has the following statement in the liner notes:In the four years of Fleetwood Mac's existence they have sold in excess of 12 million records, they have played all over the world and have four gold discs so far. Last year they won the Top Selling Singles Artist Award which was the first time anyone apart from the Beatles had won this award in six years.
  16. And those top 5 songs are: I am old enough and they don't make my top 20 groups. I haven't listened to an entire Airplane album since at least as long as the Bills have gone to a Superbowl.
  17. Folklore has it that when one of the men was rescued, his hair had turned white overnight. Maybe tomorrow, barge goes to falls, in a few thousand years, falls goes to barge.
  18. Really. Looked like the Jet players wanted it, especially Darnold. Only takes one or two snaps past a QB to lose. Why fire Gase? It might hurt your draft position.
  19. I had 50 to 60, which is a little more than last year. That was a bit of a surprise. Didn't get anyone after 7:10.
  20. For sure I am not subscribing to another HBO service but seeing as they are so greedy, maybe I will cancel my current HBO. There are places to watch anything on HBO.
  21. He did really well in those first 8 games, and then the opponents figured out they could kill the Bill's offense and Bledsoe by blitzing. The coaching staff responded to the challenge with ............crickets. A good method when Defense doesn't matter. He was the most maligned QB since Joe Ferguson.
  22. To paraphrase Mr. Krueger, the Bills didn't respect the Eagles.
  23. That looked exactly like some of his draft day highlights.
  24. My son sent me this link. I am not one for computer games but this is going to be one impressive program. I am really impressed with the engineering.
  25. Tootsie Pop Cherry is one of the best cherry's in candyland.
