  1. I was always chearing for the Groundhog and happy he won in the end. Cindy Lobster was a lot of fun. I think she's a girl.
  2. Sorry to hear this and glad that it seems that you are all on the mend. You hve to convince your lovely bride to stay out of the huge discount bin and to pay close attention to the warnings. I mostly blame the retailer for not removing the recalled stuff, but if it was purchased before the recall then it's not really their problem anymore. Hope that we get a full recovery report soon.
  3. They have been scrubbed by the new internet security chie ... never mind
  4. Fair point, but some of the attendance problems are due the fact that the place is falling apart somewhat. Fixing the roster is most important, but having a decent place to see a game is also important.
  5. @Taro T, I trust Lent went well and that you and your family had a Blessed Easter? Easter Blessings.
  6. Okay ... I suggest we give Hiney-Stroka an NBA style *max-max* deal ...
  7. And another thing ... March, April and May have always been my best months revenue wise ... no kidding. March 2022 was my third best month in over 15 years of doing this. April 2022 was my best month ever, by a good margin. Between the two of them I billed out $18K, which for me working on my own is huge. Paying off some debt and have a substancial *slushie fund* built up for the first time in several years (for considerable time recently we had 2 houses ... no *slushie fund*). May is looking very good too. Looks like I will need all my CPA know how to address my own small corporation income tax issue come next filing ... ๐Ÿ˜Ž
  8. Why not? Is he not under contract for this coming season only? I know *capfriendly* is my friend, but I don't have time to look it up.
  9. Sign Rasmus and Tage to team friendly long-term deals of 6 years at about $7M to $7.5M per. Of course, that would not impact the cap this offseason, so I really don't know. Maybe sign 40 JAGs at the league minimum ... Carry on ...
  10. The Great Satan !! WTF !!
  11. Yes. Every single win matters. As far as a *C* on a sweater next season. It may be Kyle. It may not be Kyle. If the *C* is not on Kyle's sweater next season it will make no difference. Kyle is the Captain of this team. And @pi2000 ... the guy was either coached by morons or barely clinging to life for most of those 5 years. WTF!! Are we talking about the same Kyle here?
  12. All I can think about is how quickly 50+ years have gone by. I am getting close to 60 and remember the early days of the Sabres and Rick as if it were yesterday. Where did the years go?
  13. The Flower too. Terrible.
  14. Nice back drop, eh!! Just tacked it up in the garage.
  15. Another interesting development this Ramadan. My wife has always had certain political leanings that generally matched mine. I'll just say that she was loyal viewer of The View, but didn't always like their takes 100%. One evening early in Ramadan (maybe even day 1) when I was making supper I could here strange sounds coming from the living room (no TV, but YouTube). Me .. Sweetheart, what are you watching? Sweetheart ... Megyn Kelly. She's fantastic and not that crazed nut job right winger everyone on The View hates. Me ... Okay ... (meanwhile, I am thinking ... ... OTOH ... It's really hot and sexy ... it's like having an affair without cheating on my wife !!
  16. Thanks and yes. I can't read the whole board. Did the Sabres do okay in April? Is RJ really retired? Did Tage get 40? EDIT: In case yous all didn't notice I am back to my original user name and I noticed that @Doohickie has been brought back to life. It seems that the @The Ghost of NS is gone too. All back to normal, sort of ...
  17. Seems like I missed some fun here. Oh, well. Ramadan was great. Always goes by so quickly. Good to be back. I am having my first morning coffee in 30 days. There was going to be some controversy deciding when Ramadan would end. The calculation method would have had the month end at sunset on day 29, but there was no place on earth that the Eid crescent could be visible even with telescopic aids. So, the whole planet decided that we would use the traditional moon sighting method, which I prefer, and made the month 30 days. No month can be longer than 30 days. Easy peasy and no controversy. The crescent moon was easily sightable before sunset yesterday in many places, especially in North America. Interesting that due to the dateline Muslims in India, Pakistan, Austrailia ... fasted only 29 days. So, when's the draft. LOL !! VEGAS!!
  18. Dastardly dastardly Dastardly dastardly dastardly Dastardly dastardly
  19. Dude!! Ramadan!! ๐Ÿ˜‰๐Ÿ˜˜
  20. Not only that, but mid-April is when my sentence as a Ghost will be up. I think I will return from my fast with my original user name ... Sabres Fan in NS ... yous can all call me NS. Sorry @The Ghost of Yuri ... it's been fun being your Ghost. The moon is at 0.6 % right now here in Halifax. Just barely large enough to see before it sets about an hour after sunset, but it's cloudy here. Tomorrow is supposed to clear late in the afternoon, so we should be able to see the 1 day old Ramadan crescent moon tomorrow evening. Always a thrill.
  21. My wife just told me that the Ramadan crescent moon has been sighted in Arabia, Australia, India and several other countries. Therefore, there is no debate or question. Ramadan will start at sunset today (at 7:43 PM here in Halifax). First day of fasting is tomorrow. Dawn is at 5:30 (ish) tomorrow and sunset is at 7:45 (ish), which means about 14 hour fast. Not too bad. The food and swearing and gossip and everything else is pretty easy to fast. The fasting from water and other liquids is very long even at 14 hours. As the month goes on the fasting time will be longer each day, so I will see how it goes, but in years past I would often break my fast after about 10 hours with a sip or two of water. I will be signing of soon ... see you in a month.
  22. Welcome to the board. Anchor Bar?? Famous, but probably not the best.
