  1. Comey is not stupid nor incompetent. He however, in my opinion, is a bureaucratic political insider, and was trying to become a kingpin, a la Herbert Hoover. I don't believe half the stuff he shovels. He went after Obama's folks and then tried the same tactics against Trump, all the while stating he wasn't doing anything. He released those HRC documents right before the election. Comey only cares about Comey and Trump was smart to fire him, even if it made him look bad regarding the Russian investigation. You guys are confusing facts with political power struggles. I am still not sure we have heard the entire accurate story of what happened from either Trump or Comey and probably never will.
  2. Yes, P.S. it is YellowLinesandArmadillos
  3. If not no big deal... I have long forgotten the password and think I may have changed the user name on it to something else possibly North Buffalo1, not sure. Yes... trying to downplay the politics stuff unless it is on structure... I no longer am a partisan hack and don't have to be... so the new user name is appropriate.
  4. P.S. the drunks are flowing into the ER tonight... lots of head CT coming up... from folks hitting the pavement... Sorry on TBD I am now North Buffalo as well. If yellowlines can be merged great...
  5. Sorry, on twobillsdrive.com, I was yellowlinesandarmadillos… lol an old political statement by Tom Delay... the only thing in the middle of the road are yellow lines and dead armadillos.
  6. Those are triceps and biceps, back of the arm triceps, front biceps.... guess you don't work out anymore... ? And yes they look impressive, now if he actually will use them for something.... hockey related that is....
  7. On TBD, I have yellowlinesandarmadillos that was not merged. Now I am the same on both, but if you could, but it may be defunct and that is fine if not...
  8. Willy’s legs quads look bigger though and that may be the problem..
  9. Him and Pekar on a line should be fun to watch and interview after a game..
  10. Nice work Judge, keeping things on task.
  11. You millenials... get with the times
  12. exactly sounds like a Euro hackers name!
  13. JBots gotta come with some for new guys TT 2.0 Tage Thompson Berglund? Savoka?
  14. Pekka.... 6k or UPL Pu .... Poo Girgenson... Girgs Larson.... Larry
  15. Im ok with trade one or two of the later rounders for a package deal for young prospects.. but if not draft all three. Still not sure what next year’s draft talent looks like so there is that. If it is a deep draft JBots may have some options which is a good thing imo.
  16. I hear you though in many places where Unions are started there is already an adversarial relationships. Though it is hard to be cookie cutter and like has been said in many pro sports, no matter the family relationship/atmosphere at the end of the day it is still a business relationship and with large companies it is an uneven one unless you are near the top of the totem pole or have a rare specialty skill in demand that allows you to switch companies if you need to. In my business there is a fair amount of turnover because it is not for everyone and there is a burnout factor so demand is relatively stable. For a while there were hospital based programs who recieved a medicare bonus for providing training, however that ended a few years back and supply has dropped as result making my skills more valuable. Having a good working environment was not a choice. Found a good one luckily as I got started luckily, but checked out a few that were not and they were in non union shops, hence my bias.
  17. The stuff behind the vines the bush/trees looked like Sumac to me.
  18. Again, having never been in a Union before, I was skeptical. And I am fine with you not wanting to be in one given your experience with your Dad. I've seen the best... the Teachers Union with my Dad SUNYAB and the worst, the Buffalo musicians Union with him as well. However, unless you own and run your own company... the company you work for has that much influence itself... the Union affords some protection against arbitrary and capricious actions by said company. I have seen the difference between Union and non-union hospitals and the difference is stark. The treatment of staff in non-union hospitals is atrocious, especially by the Docs, but often it emanates from the supervisors with favoritism being rampid despite levels of competence. All I am saying is it is easy to dismiss Unions and in today's day and age, the one's that are growing are much more responsive imo. Guess that goes with anything, including management in companies, but the bigger the company, the more important the need for a Union.
  19. The stuff in the foreground is Virginia Creeper... a grape like vine. the stuff behind with the little berry stuff is the Sumac and probably the poison variety looks like from the pics on line.
  20. Trump is a pain, even when I agree with what he is trying to do, strengthen border control, fairer trade (our trade agreements suck)… he goes about it in such a narcissistic, foul mouthed way that I can't even listen to him anymore. He is not a leader in quite the opposite way that Obama was not a leader. Obama didn't like to get out a criticize people directly and when he did, it seemed... meh. Trump does it so nastily and doesn't have any couth. He doesn't share credit unless it is inappropriately with dictators like Putin and North Korean guy that it makes your stomach turn. Not sure there is much else I can say. His economic policies are so hap hazard, they make little sense and his trade actions while imo in the correct direction don't work the way he is implementing them. I don't think he realizes the connection between the results his actions will have on the economy and how he is going about it with all his actions by fiat. Meh...
  21. Just read up on it, the Red droups are non-poisoness, the stuff with white droups are and usually grow in swampy areas... had no idea. Still not sure what a droup is...
  22. Interesting, never had a reaction to it and have been around it and touched it. People I knew in Canada made tea out of it unless there is a difference. Always heard about poison Sumac, but was wondering if there are different varieties or am I just immune having grown up around it? P.S. Sorry for your pain.. Sounds like it sucks.
