  1. What class do I fit in? Working class. The question is ridiculous.
  2. If that happens I don't have to keep track of who I picked.
  3. That was fun. Kubiak needs to fired if he insists Manning stay under centre to set up the play action pass. As soon as they had to go to the shotgun down 14 Manning looked at home, pass first run second that's his game for his entire life. His wideouts dropped passes all night especially on the last drive. The win came on a lucky bounce. Hold on to that ball and protect it like a newborn especially when killing the clock. That's taught at 8 years old for C's sakes.
  4. I'll concur with M2B2 and take Baltimore this week. I'm watching the replay of last night game. I avoided the news all day so I can see what happened. No I won't be looking here so you guys can spoiler me.
  5. I would use my flashlight and put the working end against a line to listen for flow or on fluid drive couplings etc. for small clunks. When I did that with our new Plant Mgr, he asked the GF if I was pulling off one of my antics? It works to boot.
  6. I had to laugh when I read "give the fan motor a tap with a hammer". I am no mechanic when it comes to cars, I never have been this all sounds like rocket science to me. But the funny thing is I had a similar problem and I tapped it with a small hammer to get it to work. That I can do. When in doubt smack it! Good luck on the truck Blizzard.
  7. I know the feeling Rick, I saw 3 squirrels last night rummaging around.
  8. Yea for some reason I was lead to believe he started on the field this week. Wrong, again. I saw his twitt or instagrama and man his thumb is gone, gone. Not good, what was he thinking? I know the Mara's would like to know that too. That has to affect his game.
  9. Funny guy, ROTFLMAO, LOL and all those other little face dooeys. As far as football does anyone think Jason Pierre-Paul's game will suffer due to the amputation of an index finger and the tip of another after playing with fireworks? He will be wearing a cast this week. I say yes, I lost the tip of a middle finger around 30 years ago and it still bothers me. I have to use my left hand to give that special finger now. He needs that finger to be able to grab, pull, push. The other thing is that he hasn't played a down this year. Practice is just that, there is nothing like the real game. I hope he proves his naysayers wrong though.
  10. 1st choice StarCraft because I own one and it's tougher than all hell. We fish Erie and it does well for an aluminum out there in 1 meter waves. She gets up on plane very well. 2nd Crestliner, they look solid 3rd Lund Tracker, never. If someone gave me a Tracker I'd take the engine off and give what they call a boat away to someone I don't particularly like very well. We were looking at them at Bass Pro in NOTL. Man what a piece of crap. There were actually welds that looked like an apprentice did after learning to weld on-line. Actually had passes that were not closed, and these are the boats they choose to be shown. It had rained and the storage compartments had an inch of water in them. Sorry Legend owners but facts are facts.
  11. We called it "Cut Throat". I'm in. Now I need to use my brain and rabbits foot and pick a dog game of which as of late there are no easy picks. I'll be back.
  12. If you want to take a ride to south of Cayuga we can take a look at it but not for 2 weeks as we are away for 2 weeks. PM me.
  13. Former I/O. He probably blew the I/O and had access to a free or near free outboard. He gained a lot of room too.
  14. Steve, what's the reference to the toilet seats? Montreal? I haven't followed the NHL since the 80's.
  15. I live 20 minutes from Tobacco country. There are still a few farms here. Shall I send you a few leaves if they are still in the fields? I don;t think so though as it should all be hanging in the sheds by now. Steve spend some time out on the rez. have a meal or a coffee (tax free). It is 10% of the goofs out here causing 100% of the problem. Most of the militants don't even live here.
  16. I'm really enjoying watching the Cats play this year actually since they actually have a real deal coach to lead them, Fun to watch after all those years of mediocre play. It's really extra fun beating TO. I hope an east final has them there too. A far as the Cup, let's get there first.
  17. The sad fact is when there is any money involved someone is going to find a way to take it unscrupulously. From a 2 buck Nassau golfing to Pro Bass tourneys and everything in between. Sad but a fact of life. I say put them in cage underwater then they might think twice about cheating after all the facts are in though.
  18. Wash the boat and clean with Spray 9. Sand and prime where there are any scratched to the metal. Then use whatever you have chosen, roll on and back brush with a good quality paint brush or foam brush, I personally like a bristle brush.. If back brushed well it can come out like sprayed on For an extra 100 bucks any good sign shop will replicate your original logos and striping for the boat. This is not a tough job, take your time and prep is your friend.
  19. You know 4% body fat M2B2. I had veins in my abs. Sick when I think about drinking white vinegar to look good. A long time ago.
  20. Bruce Smith. We went to his first exhibition game at Rich Stadium after being picked 1st by Buffalo. After his first series we turned to each other and said "WOW". He did a 360 outside move then 180 and ran down Chuck Dickerson from behind. He outran Dickerson. The rest is history. I had a few Molson's at a charity golf tourney in The Falls along with Kelly and a few others a few years back when I had 7% body fat, yes he had 4% body fat. I stand corrected. I wish he retired a Bill, one of the worse free agency signings by Washington, ever. Kelly could have played much longer but his son Hunter was much more important than Football and I respect that immensely. I just don't know why Manning would risk being in a wheelchair when he could have retired on top. Special people to extraordinary things. He is one of them.
  21. I just Googled the lineman question. There are some startling stats out there for NFL linemen as far as their risk to health based on their weight and career choice. The average linemen are between 21% and 24% body fat. The lowest being 16% and highest being 30%. Several studies showed basically the same numbers, 1 out of the U of Ohio and stats from the 07' NFL combines for example. Your average "skill position player is 12% body fat. BMI is not a good denominator as some may have dense muscle vs. height that skew the numbers . 4% is ripped. There are no linemen with 4% body fat, so there. Wait, maybe in high school because they are short linemen. I'm chuckling Mister B not being snarky, all good sir.
  22. I hope Buffalo gets the better deal as well. I just like the guy right off the get go when I watched him in Oregon. Is this Peyton Manning's last year. All the talking heads say he has a mechanical problem with his throwing. He must love playing or he owes, he owes so off to work he goes. By the way G, I have never seen a linemen with 4% body fat. If there is one I would like to know who, I'm sure I'll find out soon. 4% is 6 pack ripped.
  23. Kiko Alonso has a body fat of less than 4%. He is almost 6'5". He doesn't look like your typical NFL inside LB. Yes he looks like a big safety. His tenacity can not be coached or learned. He made that ridiculous 1 handed interception last night to prove my point. I like the guy and I agree he is no Connlon or Jim Hasslet, yet. edit: allowing 150 rushing yards to 1 back doesn't help my argument though.
  24. I thought there was a law where humans and not to go within a certain distance of Whales. I guess not. Whale vs. Kayak, my money is on the Whale.
