  1. Damn. I've been drinking that 80 proof crap. No wonder I can't shake this.
  2. Not sure I like his ankle-breaking crossover stride.
  3. I still do. I'm drinking plenty of fluids though (wink, wink).
  4. That would be significantly more if he was really trying.
  5. I remember watching Talas. Billy Sheehan playing what seemed to be 3 bass guitars simultaneously. Generational talent.
  6. Diggs is essentially for a first and I'm OK with that. The Bills have some free agents that may bolt next year and I think Beane is counting on a compensatory draft pick or two to make up of what he added to sweeten the pot for the Vikings.
  7. Well. at least I have an explanation to my wife why my prostate is two times the size of my nuts.
  8. My birthday gift from my wife. Can't play it for crap, but I look damn good. This is a stock photo from the manufacturer and yes, the real guitar does have all the frets. But the guitar is SWEET.
  9. Winspear Ave. Can't even remember the exact address. Our paths must have crossed. Not sure if this is urban legend, but I was told the round water tank looking object at the South Campus housed a nuclear reactor. You ever hear that?
  10. Hope JBOT pulls the trigger on getting this guy.
  11. Amen brother. But even more than losing, I just want a team that is the embodiment of passion, grit, fight, and an FU attitude. We had more of these traits on my HS Hockey team. We were not that great but we never quit and I always knew someone had my back, and I had theirs. I want a team I can like, win or lose.
  12. There are 2 Hayeks. I'm a fan of one Hayek and a REAL big fan of another Hayek. I'll let you ponder on which one I am the bigger fan of.
  13. Every time I think my work benefited society, I read your posts and think, damn, not even close. You have my admiration.
  14. Sorry about that, man. Don't get discouraged. All honest work is good work. I'll keep a good thought for you.
  15. I'm trying to be positive on this but ANOTHER 5' 10" 180 pound winger is uninspiring. But, then again, I'm not a competent NHL GM (yes, that is sarcasm),
  16. It was only last year that I learned that the Harvey in Harvey and Corky Productions was Weinstein. As a proud UB alumni, it pissed me off.
  17. Mama Cass, Meat Loaf sounds like a recipe.
  18. In the 70s, the Sabres would practice at Tonawanda Ice Time in North Tonawanda, which was an easy walk from my home. It's also where the Buffalo Norsemen played (cheap avatar plug). I would watch the Sabres practice frequently. I remember one time Rick Martin and Danny Gare were at one end of the ice and they were betting on who could hit the crossbar from opposite side of the rink. Rico finally won, but pucks were flying everywhere. I think I scored 3 pucks that day that went over the glass. It was amazing to see the speed and power of their shots even when they slammed off the cinder blocks over the glass from 190 feet away. Also: Andre Savard was one built mother F'er. Perreault smoked a lot and drove a cream colored Corvette. Jim Lorentz was a great guy. Always friendly as were Dudley and Ramsay. Korab and Schoenfeld walked toward me down a hallway and I almost pissed myself. But I got a "Hey Buddy" from Schoeny. When Bill Hajt skated, it made that low grinding sound. He was no elite skater, but he never budged when hit. The speed of EVERY player was amazing, even in the 70's. Seeing it up close was crazy.
  19. No jest. I have seen Terry Kath live. Incredible and awe inspiring. . It's like he invented the guitar. He rarely looks at it.. It's like he was born with a guitar in his hand. If you're not exhausted and satisfied after his solo. I don't know how.
  20. It's tough to pick. So many to choose from. I will say that Jimmy Hendrix said Terry Kath was the best guitarist he ever heard. And Robert Plant said that Burton Cummings was the best vocalist he ever heard. But like Herb Brooks said, "We're not looking for the best players, we're looking for the right players."
  21. I am very, very embarrassed to say that the last video game I played was Pacman. Please don't hold that against me.
