  1. 8:30pm

     

    After our "homestand" and the Pominville incident, if the Sabres don't come out on fire tonight and least try to beat the crap out of the Hawks, I'm beginning to wonder if Lindy will even make it out of October as Sabres coach. Someone a little high up on the totem pole will need to take the fall.

     

    However, with that said, I have some strong confidence that the Sabres will dominate. 9-0 Buffalo, 0 goals by vanek, 12 shots into the pads though... Lalime's first shutout this year.

     

    LETS GO BUFFALO!

  2. Open for business. No complaints today, except for the fact that I made a halloween party invitation and neglected to put a "sluttiest costume wins" disclaimer at the bottom.

     

    I did use mac pages for the first time though to generate the card. Definitely no complaints there. It's an easy program to use and its just as effective as MS Word.

  3. Open for business today.

     

     

    I have a couple complaints. First, the sabres ical season schedule was set for all games in the AM instead of PM. Jacked up my google calendar. Luckily, i re downloaded the calendar and it was fixed.

     

     

    Second, the Buffalo Bills. WTF! I just want my football team to COMPETE... At the end of the day, its a way of life, but its entertainment. I'm not being entertained watching a JV team play in the NFL.

     

     

    Third, first day of fall and it's going to be 95 degrees outside. Again, WTF.

  4. Normally I would send a PM, but since numerous inquiring minds want to know...

     

    I have a complaint. As a moderator I delete a thread which several people clearly thought was in bad taste, and in turn, people complain. If I left the thread alone, other people would complain that the thread should be removed.

     

     

     

    I can't win. :angry:

     

     

     

    But I deleted that thread...

  5. Why is that friggin' thread closed today?

     

    I think I'm gonna have to put my dog down tomorrow. This evening sucks.

     

    Sorry to hear that man. My dog ran away and a random old lady called me yesterday from about 1/2 mile away. Luckily she came running home about 2 minutes later, but for about 10 minutes I had the fear of God in me. I can't imagine when the day comes where I have to walk in your shoes. I'll be thinking of you!

  6. It's over 100 degrees here, with the heat index over 110. I thank the gods of weather that I purchased new heat pumps for my house in april, but I hate the fact that my door knob burns my hand when I open the door. I hate that I cannot breathe outside, and I really hate being confined to my house in the middle of the summertime. super hot weather sucks.

  7. Bump... and let the games begin.

     

    I would like to complain about one mundane aspect of life: the burned out tail light.

     

    I've had my car for 11 months now. It's fully warrantied, obviously, so this won't cost me a dime to fix, but seriously folks... My volkswagen gets nearly 50 mpg, and its emissions system is so good that even though it runs on diesel, it cleans the exhaust so well that it's impossible to commit suicide by running the car in a closed garage. All of this, plus bluetooth phone, sirius radio, auto windshield wipers, etc. yet, a 120 year old technology, the incandescent bulb in the tail light, burns out after 11 months? Really? Really! Whatever government lobbyist group that is mandating the use of incandescent bulbs over LEDs needs to burn a fiery death in hell caused by a short inside a 75/100/120w dimmer switch!

  8. Nothing to complain about in the grand scheme... My wife and son are doing fine. Son is recovering from his circumcision downstairs. We're relaxing at home and I'm back from semi-retirement to open this thread. My only real complaint is that I have absolutely no concept of time right now, so if its not thursday, please close this thread!

  9. Agreed and while we're on the technology discussion, why do parents feel the need to have their kids continually engaged with technology. Ipods, first graders with cell phones, video games, dvds in the car, and unlimited computer time. I hate the fact that parents feel like they have to continually "entertain" their children with some device. You're bored? Go outside and play! It's raining? Read a book, build a fort, use your imagination!

     

    One of the smaller joys of my upcoming fatherhood is the prospects of setting parental rights on the computer and time limits on the router for specific devices. Life is going to be grand!

  10. Home improvement projects! I installed a new outlet with its very own dedicated 15 amp breaker as well as a bunch of cat5e so i can house all of my network stuff in the giant closet we have downstairs. After hours of fishing lines, drilling holes, and doing the typical sweating cause the jumble of wires won't fit down the hole, I got it all done. The electrical stuff and data stuff works like a friggin charm. My major complaint is drywall patching. Talk about a horrible, messy job! It's not even the patching... It's the sanding. I feel like i'm in a sahara dust storm here. I'll be happy when this sh-- is all done!

     

    Oh yeah, my wife was hell bent on getting one of those intex frame pools for her birthday in may. approximately 2 months and about $800 later in pool, water, chemicals, and supplies, I cut it down yesterday. The pump worked for about 3 weeks before it stopped pumping. Did all kinds of research, breakdown, tricks with the filter, etc. to no avail. Finally a couple weeks ago i drew the line in the sand and unplugged it and chalked it up as a learning experience. Since these sh---y pools don't even have an accessible drain plug (oh they do have a drain plug, but when its filled, the drain is half buried in the ground, making it totally useless). I just went at the liner with a pair of scissors. My lawn got a great algae water bath last night. Don't ever buy these stupid pools. Every time you want to impulse buy one of these things, put $500 into a pool fund, save up, and get the real deal. Literally, the biggest waste of money ever!

  11. I hate carpet cleaners. I am borrowing my neighbor's hoover cleaner, and its doing a good job on the baby room, but the byproduct is a chocolate milk like substance that makes me want to vomit. Also, why is the solution so damn expensive? Can someone please give me a good recipe? I've looked online and combinations of hot water, ammonia, and white vinegar are mentioned a bunch. I'd love to use it, but I don't want to go making this crap if it doesn't work. Also, the carpet is pretty much clean, its just extracting the sand/dust that's the problem. I could do 100 treatments and the water still would look like coffee with milk in it. People who don't think allergies are related to carpet dust, smoking, etc. should be thrown off of a bridge. I'd love to rip out all the carpets in the house, but we lack the funds for anything right now. I may just go buy my own cleaner and do the house once a month or so. But, I need a good recipe for cleaning solution. $15 for a quart of rug doctor stuff is absolute Bullpoop.

  12. i dont want to be a 4th liner anymore. i think i have added some great posts and demand a better title. ill take 'conn smythe winner' or 'bonafide all star'. i will go to another site if i dont get this.

     

    If you want to get to 3rd line status, you need to post more. Think "quantity over quality". That's the motto of any decent message board and college students in a drive through liquor store!
