Big Blue Huddle

I am currently watching the premier I believe as the main character just got bitten by the original vampire. so I guess this is the first episode. So far, I don't have one remark, so far its all good and very well made.
Now that THD has been reduced to a story line that makes no sense at all and is about to end, is this going to be in its time slot and be supported the way TWd was? I hope so!
The premiere just ended and they are going to run the second episode right now.
 Didn't realize this was on right after TWD. I am now. Thanks Vette

well lets see, it will be a while before Im ready to sell down here but I sure as hell don't plan on living anywhere I can get nailed by another one of these "Super Storms". Honestly you have to wonder, will their be another one next year? Is this global warming? Do alligators poop in the canal out back?
 Inquiring minds NOT DRAKES, want to Know!

thanks for the good words my friend.
 Yeah yeah maybe, just maybe we can rekindle a bar b q in ALbany sometime. Maybe Ill even host it if I have any luck at all, somethings gotta go right for a change, unless your the jets!
 Good to hear from all you jamokes!
 Stay safe and don't feed the French!

Hello all,
I am just beginning to move about. watchibng the giants on the broadcast here in s.w. Florida.
I survived ok. it was absolutely terrifying. My home withstood those 150 mile winds and got hit by a couple of tornados. Pool cage is gone taking abut 3 feet of my roof across the back of my home off. I will not replace that, Im getting a fence around the pool, if it hadnt been for that stinking pool cage the damage would be nothing. But thats not what happened at all. I have some notable damge. roof of course . it rained in one of the bedrooms bnut I fgot lucky and actually used a big powerful fan and dried it out. ran it for 7 days straight. no mold. no stink and fixed the wagter stains with KILLZ. that stuff did a good job.
Carpets ordere3d. the carpet in there was soaked and was beginning to stink so we cut it out and out to the curb.
Roofer called last night and will start in a couple of weeks. guess they are having trouble getting roofing supplies.
knocked over and blew away my maple tree that I'd been growing for about 18 years.
THe insurance company up and cancelled 10k policies in June so I didn't have any insurance. Its beginning to look like I will be moving to New York near whats left of the family now, I guess if your gonna go might as well be when family is near. Cnace is not gone so I started the whole treatment thing all over again, tube up your doink and then they shoot meds into the bladder. do that for 6 weeks and then its a month off and then another biopsy. It hasn't spread its just we got most of it but not all. Looks like Albany medical center is gonna be my new vacation spot. Dont know where should be between Ballston Spa and Lake George cause thats where the family lives.
So there you go guys my best report. hope it didn't bother you but if your gonna speak about it might as well get the full boat right?
Hope this finds all of you in good healthe GIANTS INTERCEPT and ON THE 15 WOOOOOOOOOOOO WOOOOOOOOOOO!%!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
take care y'all and God Bless the New York Giants

what time and where may I watch said show? I've been "out of the loop" for 2, 3, weeks.
Thanks

Lenn,
"Man of Constant sorrow" was sung by Dan Traminsky {SIC} who played guitar with "Union Station". Better know as "Alison Krauss and Union Station" which may have been the other folks on that recording.
 Alison who has the greatest number of Grammys for women with 24 is worth doing a search on Lenn, nothing short of spectacular and one of my favorite listens,
alas shes been off recording with Robert Plant of all people, dont know the status of the guys in Union Station although they must be in demand musicians.
 Sorry.

Raphael's "Portrait of a young man" and the Amber Room
 When the Army decided to change the "official" handgun for the Army of course contracts were put up and different handguns were submitted and tested. The two that were considered were the 9mm.Luger and the .45 Colt model 1911. It came down to those two and there were actually those that wanted the Lugar. Of course the colt was awarded the contract due to home grown bias. What the Army wanted to see was a version of the Lugar in .45 to test.2 of them were offered up for testing and only one survives. People have been looking for that other one ever since it just disappeared. Value est at way north of a million
 While on the subject of weapons and one Id like to see is the real Bowie Knife. Guestimates are that it was picked up by a Mexican soldier and went somewhere never to be seen again.
 About 20 years ago the guy from the 101st Airborne Division that was shown in "Band Of Brothers" liberating Hitlers personal photo album died. Shortly afterward a  antique "dealer" talked his widow out of it for some stupid amount like 100 bucks. It hasn't been seen since and whereabouts are unknown. That should be at West Point museum I think.
 Ok thats enough for me.

Theres a great selection you folks have put up! 

no I meant I am still using Direct TV because they keep giving me free NFL. I am looking forward to be devoid of that fiasco anymore. THey had their day, Not anymore.
There sure are a lot of alternatives tho arent there?
and again thanks for the nice thoughts,

 We got it early so I really believe I'm going to get a clean bill here in a couple of months, Just got to get through the 6 treatments and then the scope is all. Maybe the worst part is telling people you have cancer because they treat you weird and think they are going to really hurt you somehow by ever speaking the word again. Now that I've offered it up here, we all know, so that's that.
 Now this chat room. I shall be there, if you really  bored with everything come visit. We used to get a lot of people but the last 2 years, just like the Giants themselves, have really sucked and not much there to enjoy.
 SO if you can drop by, please do. If you don't want to drop by, don't. All Im saying is that its their  so come on by sometimes.
 Good to see all you jamokes! Hope you are all dealing with the off season and lets all pull for a season over .500!

I went there a bunch of times last year but nobody was there. Only one I saw there was TOOMER at the beginning of the season.

I was kind of disappointed . where am I supposed to get my NY Giants news from?
 Haven't heard from Direct TV if they are going to give me the NFL package for free again this year, I hope they do cause if they don't I'm getting a ROKU> Would have done that a couple of years ago but they give me the NFL for free so I didn't drop them.
I'm thinking that by the time preseason games come on I should be over my latest dilemma. I'm going thru 6 weeks of treatment for Bladder Cancer. Yup every Monday I go in and they stick a doo dad up my doink and put stuff into my bladder. Thing feels about as big around as a telephone pole. Already had 3 tumors removed. that device was about as big around as a freight train. not fun at all.
 So Ill say HI to everyone so, HI.

It seems like most places in the US if you watch what your doing you can go out in public, go to the drug store, whatever and you'll probably be alright. BUT NOT FLORIDA! Nope! Here we got people that think getting shots is against God or the Church or will ruin the fishing or something. Its ridiculous. I go thru the drive thru at CVS and get groceries either loaded into the car outside or have them delivered.  I tried to tell Jerry to be careful but nope, every night its off to another restaurant. Every Ohio State game and Browns games they went to Buffalo Wild Wings, no masks. Place was jammed. I wonder how many other people got covid in that place. I'm surprised his wife didn't get it. He went fast, it was like sick on Monday morning, put into a coma on Weds or Thursday and died on Friday,,,,I think that's how it went. Quite honestly I took his death pretty hard. Now please folks no politics implied here please.
I do wish to make one thing clear though, the Governor of the State of Florida is just plain nuts.
I've got 35 years in with SCCA, still a member, Ill remain a member even though I can't walk very well. Least I can do for a organization that gave me so much is how I look at it.I dint even watch racing on tv cuz F1 cars are just plain ugly and NASCAR is NASCAR, enough said there.
as for the Giants all I can say is it takes real talent to xxxx up a team as badly as they are fucked up. Personally I blame ownership but thats just me.Drafting Duke QBs doesn't tickle me either. I took the football package out 2 years ago so they gave it to me for free this past season. AND may I say what a great season it was! That week 17 games were a thing of beauty went they?
I really do think I have a kidney stone and boy does my back hurt but no blood yet. It just hurts so much sleep is gonna be a problem. If I wake up with this tomorrow maybe Ill go to the doc's because this is xxxxxxxx.

OK Curling! where they slide the big ashtrays down the ice like shuffleboard I guess. And people say Pinball is weird??
OK good to talk with everyone here and to hear Ovid hasnt decimated the Huddle. You guys take care.and remember: stay away from the FRENCH and sick people!

Mr, Bob, I remember you telling me about her having to fart around with the Fibro. Its kinda stupid how the disease itself doesn't actually do anything in particular, isn't hereditary, about the only thing that people of medical science such as Leann who has defied Science by still being around in spite of being 131 years of age, say is that it MIGHT be auto immune and that it doesn't seem to manifest itself until you get older by which as I understand it means 40 plus. But the things that happen from having it is pretty much limitless! For me [personally. its all about pain and baloney with ones joints primarily in the back/ My back is worse then my fathers and he was born in 1924!Still drives with no problem, does just about everything, HE doesn't get all (^(&^&* up with back pr-obs, nope not at all. I really shouldn't comp;ain especially with covid these days. Really can screw you up especially if you live in Florida where theres plenty of people that say that covid doesnt bother you and that you dont need a mask and shots and all that stuff, THey MUST be right because even the Governor who says he knows everything says so.
anyway , party on folks!

Correction: The World govening body of Pinball is the IAPPA, not IPDB.
IPDB stands for Internet Pinball Data Base

 Sure you guys can say all this xxxx now, but I don't see any of you owning up to calling me and trying to sell me a warranty on my car that I no longer own or my truck which I ,along with my neighbors for a 2 block stretch got attacked by a Phillips head screwdriver! Nobody knows who or why , including the next door guy's Tesla automobile look better with all those little x's dented right into and through the paint. One neighbor, they clobbered his dodge pick up so hard it actually almost went through the hood I kid you not.
Then we COULD talk about Progressive insurance that tried to give me 3 thousand dollars and they keep my truck????????? So I'm driving a truck covered with little Xs pounded right into the sheet metal because I bought it new with cash in 2002 and it is still in good shape except for all the dents and besides, it hauls pinball machines around just fine!
Speaking of Pinball . I now have a world ranking in the IPDB or whatever the organization is that keeps track of these things. I am currently 14,243 rd best Pinball player in the World! That's right you all can claim that you know someone who has a World ranking in the "Sport" of competitive Pinball.I've even heard some of these Pinheads talking about "amateur" and "Pro" status if you can believe that. I played in one, exactly ONE, that's right 1 tournament and the very first game I played was against the number 3 player in the world which he won that spot by his 3rd place finish at the World Championship which were held in Sweden 3 years ago, pre-covid! Guys a weatherman on one of the TV stations in Tampa now I think, he was at a station in Fort Myers but apparently he took a new job. Anyway I beat him and he was so freaking mad he pounded on the wall and acted like a 6 year old, I must say I did enjoy that. Beat him on a 1970s Electra mechanical Gottlieb Pin. Hes all practiced up on all the new Stern 8k games so since I only play the old ones,,,,,great fun. Plus the guy always wins the tournaments, Ill bet he winds over 90% of the tourneys he entered Sp all the other people there were chuckling at that cause hes a dork and he got beat by a absolute neophyte,
Outside of that I play war against Fibromyalgia everyday whih has more side symptoms and crap to it, I had a syst taken off a lymph node in my my neck in November of 2020 and right now I'm living with a cyst on my right kidney, Plus right NOW literally today I'm awatin the joys a kidney stone that should be arriving very soon, It "broke off" this morning about 4 am, woke me right up.
So that's what I've been doing.
Oh and major league baseball has NO more paper tickets , they give them to your phone so the phone gopes to the games not you supposedly. and they are NON TRANSFERABLE!!!!!!! so after 11 years I told them if they couldn't give NE hard copy tickets I am no longer gonna be a Spring Training customer. Its a shame too because I had seats one thru four in the second row at 3rd base,
FOR DRAKE AND RON, our friend Jerry Crady died of Ovid 4 months ago so I've been bummed about that but hasn't COVID upset us all?
So thats what is up with me, whats up with you jamokes?
Love to all
John
