The language that seems to be more and more common in public: -About a month ago, my wife and I were out to eat a quick-service mexican place (kinda like Chipotle but a local one). We sat in a booth, and right next to us 4 guys (probably 30-40 years old) sat down. No problem, no issue. I think they worked together...maybe security, maybe corrections, maybe even law enforcement. Again, no problem..yet. Then they started talking...one guy, its seemed like every single adjective and adverb was replaced by a version of f**k. When he talked it was something like..." It was f****n strange. I got out of my f*****n truck and I went him and the f*****n door wasn't locked so I f*****n pulled out my f*****n phone to call my wife, and she said everything was f****n OK she was just in the f*****n backyard." The guy wasn't mad, wasn't angry, but that is just how he talked, about everything. Now earlier this week it was a little cooler so we were out to eat again, this time we sat outside at a place on picnic tables, and the people next to us, probably a group of 5 or 6 poeple...mix of men and women probably 25-35 years old...and a different guy from above is talking the same way. Not angry, not talking about an emotional topic...just that is how he talked. And we are right outside on the sidewalk, there are families and little kids going by occasionally, but this is just how he talked. I'm noticing it more and more often in recent years. I guess we can complain about things about everyone, but this just seems....out of place and happening more and more often.

Here is a more in depth talk about unlimited objectives

If you have some kind of spotlight that you can put on outside. When it gets dark turn off all lights inside open the doors and put light on outside. I would stay in the room and watch for the bat to find it's way out then close the door. The outside light draws the bugs and the bat will go after them. Good luck.

These teams move like people change underwear...it's pretty crazy.

I'm slowly coming to the realization the only way this invasion will end is if we commit troops on the ground over there. If it comes to that I hope it's a NATO effort.

Yeah, that makes sense. It also makes sense that the Russians would do it, or even fake that they are doing it and still post it. It's psychological warfare. I already don't like Putin and his actions.. this isn't changing anything for me though. It's exactly the kind of actions I would expect. Why are you calling out Hank here? That's unnecessary. If Hank wants to comment, then Hank will comment when they want. Stop going after other users.

Why does your 3 year old even know what that is? You letting him hang out on YouTube or something? 🙂

Yep. But people want to go on about it as a metaphor for the franchise. The franchise is bad enough. Reality is almost any location suffered a pipe burst like this there would be significant damage that occurred.

Not that close but think about it every day I deal with corporate BS. Yeah.. shop I go to talked about how Tesla drivers are shocked how fast their tires go. --- So, waiting to find out but I was able to get my van from Schenectady back to Rochester (helpful hint: do NOT use the well advertised and rated brokers online). I went through hell with that and ended up calling a local place (Allstar Hauling, West Henrietta.. 10/10 would use again, but hopefully never need to). So, the van arrived Tuesday night. The local dealer looks at the car for 2 hours and diagnoses that the backup camera is shorted out and causing the electrical system to have issues. Waiting to see if this gets fixed and solves the problem. If that turns out to be the issue then the dealer in Schenectady was basically trying to pull one over on me and then perpetuate it into fraud by claiming it was the main wiring harness that was chewed on by rodents. Of course they never had the vehicle ready to be inspected by insurance so after the 5th trip out there my insurance company told me to tow it to Rochester. Waiting to see.. it's apparently a thing as I began searching the Internet. I'm not 100% convinced.. but man.. 6 weeks later finally having some progress is a nice thing.. but 6 damn weeks they held my car hostage...

I base 4yrs on my projection of where my retirement savings will be, when I clear my debt, and how long I will be paying for 100% of my health insurance. I haven’t done a detailed study but Ive made some estimates of what my budget will look like. I will probably do a trial run of living at that budget for a year or two first before pulling the trigger. I do plan to do something part time at first. I have an idea or two in mind. I have grown quite weary of corporate life and have to actively fight the urge to say “Im done” these days.

But we have to go for shock and awe by mentioning the roof.

You need to go back and look at the list of names that were purged from the organization during the switch. Video scouting itself wasn't the issue. It was simply an excuse used to cut payroll. He had the right guys for the job and he got rid of them.

I thought they did play Helenius at center last year

I'm curious as to how they're going to line up at centre ice. I think Osltund is inked as the 1C and Leschsyshyn and Dunne should get two of the other spots. But will Kozak be there as a 3rd defensive centre? Will Savage be the 4C if Kozak makes the Sabres? Or will Wahlberg or Helenius be moved back to the middle? I'm hoping its Helenius and he and Östlund take turns leading the offence.

The point I made about the scouting issue is that from a broad perspective it wasn’t a major factor why this franchise has struggled for nearly a generation. I strongly believe thst Golisano would have hired better hockey staff and allowed them to do their jobs. And I’m sure he would have held them accountable for their performance.

Thank you. The ceiling came down and that looks like a water pipe burst.

Who writes the headline in the links? If it’s inside the building, it’s not the roof.

Geertsen Savage Kuntar Joshua Looks to me like they agreed that the team was a soft and too easy to play against last year. They've re-built the bottom 6 into a much more physical group. Meyer and Leschyshyn are also more complete players and not as one dimensional as the guys they've had previously.

15K and they are done? Here is some Dad-like advice, you probably already know this stuff but maybe you get something from it. I once bought a set of Michelin's that lasted only 20k before I took them off due to bad performance and wear. I did all the right maintenance. The guy at the dealership said they could have been dry rotting by setting in their storage for awhile so he gave me half the money back towards another set. I hope you get some compensation back for the poor performance. Good tire maintenance: - check alignment and do a front end alignment if needed every time you put new tires on. - Check inflation of tires to proper levels periodically, especially important when seasons change as external temps effect the tire pressure. This helps gas mileage and reduces the chance of bad wear. - check tire balance and rotate your tires every 12,000 miles, or every other oil change, so they wear evenly. - Make sure your shocks/struts are good, they will slowly degrade so once you get 60K to 100K miles on them. Over 100K and they are probably not doing the job to full performance but they still could be good. Problem is you get used to them, making it harder to detect when they are marginal.

One of these things is not like the other. I know I had to Google it because those 6 NHl games for Kuntar don’t really stick out in my mind.

July 1st 2007. Two of the best players walk after a 113 point season. Like Pimlach I am grateful he saved the team and what he has done for this area of New York but as long term owner I don't think we would have been better off.

He demanded they’d be good but then cut them off at the knees. Personally, I have no issue with his ownership. He was a means to an end. Unfortunately that next step didn’t go well.
