darksabre Posted September 20, 2014 Report Share Posted September 20, 2014 My son is learning how to skate. I've got him taking lessons once a week. He has had two so far. After each of them, he has come off the ice and proclaimed that it was "the greatest time of my life!" This makes me feel awesome! How many pull ups can he do?

Weave Posted September 20, 2014 Report Share Posted September 20, 2014 The chinook salmon run in Lake Ontario is on! Nothing quite like the sight of 30+lb fish jumping out of the water all around you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shrader Posted September 23, 2014 Report Share Posted September 23, 2014 I just listened in on a long conversation between two Russians about where they could find this variable and that variable. I was really hoping they'd start asking where they could find nuclear vessels. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iron Crotch Posted September 23, 2014 Report Share Posted September 23, 2014 Barclays Center. Went to a show last night there. Fantastic venue. Despite the fact that we were incredibly late due to nearly five hours in delays from Amtrak. Great venue for concerts and basketball... but it has about 2000 obstructed view seats for hockey and is just not a good fit for the sport at current (e.g. rink has to be off-center putting the scoreboard over one of the bluelines).

darksabre Posted September 24, 2014 Report Share Posted September 24, 2014 (edited) So Elon Musk, the real life Tony Stark, is putting a solar panel factory with 3000 jobs in South Buffalo. How long before Musk and Pegula have a Power Rangers Megazord Battle over who is King of Buffalo?

darksabre Posted September 24, 2014 Report Share Posted September 24, 2014 I may have to move back into Erie County. SolarCity sounds like one of those typical pipe dream ideas like Bass Pro. And then I remember that the Elon Musk owned SpaceX now flies its own commercial shuttles to the International Space Station for NASA because NASA is like "eh, you're doing a pretty good job at this whole spaceship thing." Awesome. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tim Hortons (recently purchased by Burger King Worldwide Inc.) has significant market share in 3 countries. Canada, of course. The United States, of course. And.... ...the United Arab Emirates.

frissonic Posted September 25, 2014 Report Share Posted September 25, 2014 two awesomeses: 1. tie dyeing. i know i've said this before, but it's *so* much fun. it's creative, it's expressive, my whole family gets in on it, and we all have a blast making stuff we can wear. and SELL! holy crap, my kids are dang near as good as i am. and it's going to pay for their college education! well, at least some of it, if not all of it. they even want to help at the fairs we do. fun times. 2. game center live. all y'all who live in WNY are blessed beyond belief to have all that great coverage, but those of us ex-pats who don't even *have* a hockey market are grateful as hell to have something like this available so we can keep up on all the games. i know it has its kinks to be worked out, but i can live with those. what i can't live without is watching my team. and thankfully, my wife abides these little quirks of mine. she grew up in small-town utah, so hockey is not an innate interest. it's not even much of an acquired interest, at this point, but it's becoming more and more of one. all in good time.

darksabre Posted September 25, 2014 Report Share Posted September 25, 2014 I chanced to weigh myself the other day and I'm under 200lbs for the first time in over a decade. I guess being poor is a good way to get into game shape? Either way, my knees thank me. Bring on goalie season. :ph34r: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm thinking about picking up tix to the Canes opener against the Isles for the very rare occasion where I'll be rooting for the Canes to kick off the Isles tank in grand fashion.

Bring on goalie season. :ph34r: congratulations!! isn't it a great feeling?! shedding extra pounds and getting back to some targeted weight? i've been freakin' LOVING it. got one of my bikes tuned up and street worthy last week. took it for a light spin ... just opened up the mapmyride app and took off. came back a couple hours later with some stops in between. went 14 miles without even trying. blew my mind. no, 14 miles isn't very far, but for a first attempt, i was floored. there's a series of bike trails around here that spans most of 3 counties. it's about 80 miles of trails. my goal is to ride the whole thing in one day next summer.

dEnnis the Menace Posted September 26, 2014 Report Share Posted September 26, 2014 Went to the gym this morning. did some cardio (the stair climber) for 10 minutes, then did 10 pullups, then did chest and tricep exercises. upped my max on the bench, and DAMN did it feel good. Closed out with a 5 minute run. I feel like a boss this morning while everyone flocks to the free donuts for doughnut Friday that work provides B-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
