  1. Oak hill academy vs. Blue Ridge school in a VA high school match of 2 teams in the USA Today top 30. Game to be played in Beckley WV. Oak hill academy regularly has 6 to 8 division one players on their roster. Past players for oha include Carmelo anthony, rajon rondo, Kevin durrant and Brandon jennings.
  2. Serbia nil....USA nil There surely were a lot of new faces on the USA squad. Zusi as right back played well given lack of time in the back line.
  3. 27 - 9 game over. I abhor the pats
  4. We have been on 4 cruises. 2 to the Western Caribbean and 2 to the Eastern Caribbean. 2 on Carnival, 1 Princess and 1 Norwegian. I liked them all. Carnival gives more 'bang for the buck" The site mentioned by others, cruise critic , is very helpful.
  5. Crunchy peanut butter and mayo.
  6. That is a great video. WOW. Those announcers are a hoot too
  7. Add my vote to the David Bowie / Bing Crosby video. As for singing in church or going caroling, then I will vote for "Silent Night"
  8. RIP Greg. I am speechless at this news.
  9. Book by David Hepworth. "Never a Dull Moment --1971 the Year Rock Exploded" That being said, my freshman year in college. I did not buy all of these and the guys in the dorm would share with one another. We wore out the needles of the stereos. Led Zeppelin 4 Who's Next LA Woman... the Doors Fragile...Yes Tapestry... Carole King Aqualung .. Jethro Tull The yes Album...Yes Every Picture tells a Story... Rod Stewart Tarkus... ELP Killer....Alice Cooper Straight up... Badfinger Low Spark of High Heel Boys .. Traffic Hot Rocks..1964--1971 Rolling Stones American Pie.. Don McLean Pictures at an Exhibition... ELP Every good Boy Deserves Favour... Moody Blues 4 Way Street... C S N Y A Space in Time.. 10 Years After Cry of Love... Hendrix Concert 4 Bangladesh ,, George Harrison Best of the Guess Who. Technically the following were released in 1970, but they were favorites on the turn table. Paranoid... Black Sabbath Layla and other Assorted Love Songs... Derek and the Dominoes 1971 was a great year for music. And I am old/young enough to remember most of it.

Beach Boys Ode to Billy Joe..... .. ... Bobby Gentry (45 rpm single) The Who Sell out............. The Who The Doors .................... The Doors.
  11. Around noon we went to TJ Maxx , Target and a couple of other stores. Not very crowded at all. Cashier at Target said the store was crowded on Thursday until 11:00 PM and then it was empty until 8:00AM on Friday. The department store, Elder Beermann , that anchors the mall was PACKED when we went there around 3:00PM Friday. This store had great deals.
  12. Brooklyn brewery black chocolate stout. If you like dark beer, you will like this
  13. Headed to Morgantown WV to see younger daughter and son in law. Eldest daughter and hubby both work.. Also headed to the WVU--Duke NCAA Elite Eight soccer match in Mo-Town on Sat.
  14. Formerly in Lewiston, currently in West, by God, Virginia. There are many Bills fans here due to Darryl Talley.
  15. Ugh times 1000. to give up the goal on the corner in the 89th minute is inexcusable.
  16. You are not alone in this. I did not 'discover' L. Cohen until I heard the Jeff Buckley cover of Hallelujah. His songs are amazing.
  17. Vikings returns on Nov 30.
  18. Belated Happy birthday. I was in the middle of a cruise on your birthday. Met a lot of Bills fans and we commiserated about the loss to the Pats .
  19. Bathroom. Wanted to replace curling wallpaper, shower door and a light fixture. Gutted the whole thing and have a walk-in shower, shower heads on either end of the shower, fancy tile, HEATED tile floor and enough lights to illuminate the whole house. The heated floor is the bomb and the cats love it.
  20. Memorable concerts while I was in college. Allman Brothers played at homecoming concert in October 1971, Sadly, Duane Allman was killed the following weekend in a motorcycle wreck. Luther Allison was the warm up act and was so popular, he was asked to headline Homecoming the following year. Quicksilver Messenger Service. 1972 I and a large portion of the crowd left after the third song. < Yawn >
  21. I remember reading The Exorcist when I was a freshman in college and wondering if it had been made into a movie. Next year lo and behold it was a movie. Absolute classic.
  22. Memorable in a great way ELP at Rich Stadium in 1974. Lynryd Skynyrd opened and they were great. James Gang was the second group. ELP was awesome. Quadrophonic speakers in each corner of the end zones. Memorable in a bad way.. Bob Dylan in Charleston WV 2003. Sound system was terrible which added to the singing / mumbling of Bob Dylan. Ugh
  23. Nick Saban comes to mind. Pros,, NO,, NCAA..YES
