dEnnis the Menace

That was the first thing my wife said too. except she didn't say it. She stood up and proclaimed it for the neighbors to hear that "THAT WAS GLENN!". I don't argue with the pregnant Mrs Menace.

agreed

Take that stinker in London out of the equation, and our turnover ratio was #3 to that point IIRC. Last night's game was exactly what I expected. 4 day turnaround for this team, on the road in a typically hostile environment, against a division rival. We pulled the game out. That's all I could've asked for, and I am happy for it. We have 11 days to prepare for NE. I don't expect to win, but I expect a much closer game than the first one.

Pretty freakin' cool! I cannot wait for this to come out!!

I just searched for it, but I believe it was open well before I posted...just sayin.

not too shabby. I can't wait to watch this game. Too many days off of Buffalo hockey and football lol. I'm a gluten for punishment I guess ;)

Very true on the first part. I couldn't agree more on the second.

Customer service. It has apparently gone the way of the dodo. Had something on order at work for a broken piece of equipment. Was told at time of order that it would take 16 weeks to manufacture. LONG lead if you ask me, but hey, it is what it is. Get constant forwarded emails from procurement telling me that it is on schedule per their sales team. Get an email yesterday from supplier, that they are no longer on track, that they lost a blueprint, and that they don't have a good delivery time now. Meanwhile, I've been outsourcing the work that goes on that machine, losing OI left and right on a monthly basis because of that, and now I don't have a good due date?! Had a VP here email their sales manager only to get an email back saying that the sales team is only the messengers for production and manufacturing, and please don't shoot the messenger, and because of an ownership change 1.5 years ago, they should get a pass because they just are not up to standards yet. WOAH! WHAT?! So now I'm 16 weeks into this, they tell me they need to requote this project, and that they don't have a good due date? it. I just got approval to buy a new machine from a new vendor and to completely cancel the last order if the price is right (which, I think it will be).

Damn that's close!

an Expectant father book, and a prep guide for twins. very helpful so far.

Due date is currently set as 4/12, but twins rarely go full 40 weeks. have at it with the birthday pool haha! we already picked the names (picked 4, as we won't know genders until Nov 30)

Are you right in DFW? I'm going down there for a composites trade show and to visit customers all next week. I fly in during the Bills game :censored: Going to need to pay for wifi on the plane, and then find somewhere to hide in the airport to catch the end of the game. Any advice on bars to go to to catch later games with a coworker or two?

Trying to plan a surprise "baby-moon" with the mrs. We'll see about where we go in the middle of winter lol. Thank you for the advice. Game on!! haha Thank you everyone!

hahaha! Exactly what I was thinking! yes they are.

as of this morning, no. That could change soon though

I like your thinking. :thumbsup:

Yes, very

Been waiting to officially post the news (although I kind of let it slip in another thread). Mrs Menace and I are expecting to add 2 new Buffalo fans to world. expecting fraternal twins around playoff time (late March early April). Still haven't announced on Facebook yet, but we've told all of our family and our closest friends. I still need to reach out to a few far off friends (service members and others). Couldn't be more excited. Completely unexpected (the twins aspect that is). Going for our second ultrasound on Nov. 3rd. I've already talked to work about getting every doctors appointment off. There was nothing more fantastic than seeing both of the little ones move around on the screen. Not going to lie, I shed a tear.

Both of these would definitely be nice to see!

Yes Coach was on WGR the other day and said that Chad will sit for one of these games, but he wouldn't say which one.

EJ must feel like a man on death row with his sentence looming

maybe. I just like more live hockey. The more shootouts I see, the less impressive or entertaining they become.

I enjoyed the 3v3, and was on edge for the whole thing, but I think I would've enjoyed a 4v4 followed by a 3v3 and then shootout. The 3v3 was edge of the couch kind of excitement, and then...shootout. meh.

Was that D4rk?

Haha maybe I had to be completely clean shaven for a respirator fit test at work about a month back. I almost cried at losing my beard. I typically keep it well trimmed and professional, but since the respirator fit test, I haven't even trimmed my beard. It's fantastic.
