Both the Canadians and the Greeks sound like bad news to me. I hope they don't give you any trouble. Why would you laugh along with that? If there were witnesses to this, they would accuse you of being an accomplice to the crime. As you can see, this goes on every Sunday. These guys that come in here have some pretty good things to say. KC's thing this morning was upsetting because I don't want anyone to go through something like that. You are more than welcome to come back, but it's your choice.

Well, I answered back because it's my right too. You do seem to make everything a joke and if you were not joking about this, then I was 100% wrong and I apologize. Now I see here that you backed up what you said earlier today. What makes them (the thugged out canadians) be that way? Are they a gang or what?

You guys are amazing with this thread. I love to see what direction this will go each week because like the topic has it, they are random thoughts and we can just about cover anything in here. Thank you.

I've always said where I lived, but it hardly comes up when things are talked about. The closest person that lives near me on this board is YankeexDev, who lives in the town next to Irondequoit. I've never met him.

The waterfalls are in the city, and I never go there. That area sucks. I live north of that in Irondequoit.

I'm 100% Sicilian. What do you think of that? Mob movies to me are just movies, simple as that. I won't go into anything else. Soriano wrote: Why do you say that? I bet you are thinking about Henrietta where the Marketplace mall is. I hate Henrietta.

That's what I thought too. I don't know if he was serious about what he wrote or if it was just another insult at carter. Either way, I don't care what he says.

Updated to 4-30 ....Keith Hernandez took a beating by the politically correct crowd this week after he said that women do not belong in the dugout after he saw a female member of the Padres staff in the dugout. Well, you know, he's right. I don't care if she has a job on the Padres, but she should be on the field before the game starts and not when it is going on. ....Anytime I watch a Yankee game on YES and Michael Kay is not announcing it, I am happy. ...I went for a MRI this week on my left knee. I need arthroscopic surgery. ...Mod of the week: The Custom Organ Mod that someone made. This thing is wonderful. To fully appreciate it, turn off Kuiper and Krukow and just listen. What a great mod. ....Well, the NFL draft is done. Now what will the football junkies do? ...Cince de Mayo is coming up. It marks the victory of the Mexican Army over the French at the Battle of Puebla in 1862. Today, that celebration is about seeing how many Corona Extras you can empty. ...What would any random weekly thought be without thinking of those great Yanks? Big deal they scored 17 runs yesterday. I want them to be more consistent. And get rid of Bernie Williams while you are at it. ...The Yankees go to Fenway for a two game set starting tomorrow. Poor Johnny Damon. Nothing is as loud as a crying Red Sox fan and they won't like him wearing the best uniform in baseball. ...Man, those NHL playoffs last long. They won't be done until June. Same as the NBA, but I ignore them anyway. ...Nothing's as nice as coming home from work or anywhere else and having your dogs happy to see you.

No, I don't consider you one at all. All that I took out of this post is that you are frustrated and upset that someone took your phone. From what you've told me about this phone, it costs a pretty good chunk of change and you got a right to be angry. The good thing is that you know who has it and you can go find him and ask for it back. Maybe he won't be as brave if he is all alone. I hope you get it back and have nothing to do with him again. Fuzzone wrote: I have no idea if you are playing around here or not since you have the habit of making everything out to be one big joke. Friedman wrote: I know what you mean here man, and I agree as well. You made an honest and truthful point here and there is no way anyone can dispute this. Now let me tell you what is going to happen. Someone in here is going to twist your words around and accuse you of being racist. It's going to be someone who doesn't know what the hell he is talking about and that's what will happen. This is the sorry state of this country today. You can not say anything about anyone without risk of being labeled as politically incorrect or racist. Never mind what you say is true, if they don't like what is said, they will attack the words being said and not the truth behind it.

Say goodbye to wowthatisrandom. He's another one in the long line of duplicate accounts that have been caught. Right Bluesfan1? Oh well. You guys keep trying and this is what happens.

I didn't see that movie because those kind of movie I avoid but my wife did and she said it reminded her of Saw. Maybe for me, but not for you. But I wish they would have a movie about this. It would be great. I do miss not being on that. I wonder if there is any way I could here that podcast? Sure seems so. I welcome them all, but not the ones who have become too demanding about things. Great, rub it in. All we had was rain.

I got to ask, how did A-Rod get "bought out"? The Yankees bought A-Rod and I nor anyone else knew this except for you? And all this time I thought they got him via the trade route. Thank you for clearing this up. As a Royals fan you have no room to put down any player on any other team. And it shows how smart you are by dismissing Jeter like that. But you'd rather have Freddie Patek anyway, right? Baseball has spitballs and corked bats throughout the history of the game. You can't treat those things like you would steroids.

Updated to April 23rd ..."April showers bring May flowers." Now who hasn't heard that? I'll also have you know that April showers bring April head colds. A-choo! ...You know who I am sick of seeing on TV? Tom Cruise. It's like no one's ever had a kid before and these Hollywood reporters are non-stop about this. ...The NBA playoffs have started? Already? Damn. And I missed another NBA season. Oh well, next year. ...Quantum Leap was one of my all time favorite TV shows. ...I kind of had a break from here last week because I had to work a lot of overtime. Sometimes I think I need it because some of these people in here, well, let me not get into it. ...XBox live sent me an e-mail saying that "they miss me." Isn't that nice of them? I haven't had my X-Box turned on in almost a month and those people just can't get along without me. Excuse me for a second while I delete this e-mail......ok, all done. ...I found out this week I need arthroscopic knee surgery on both knees. ...Who else thinks that Bernie Williams should be released? ...With all this steroid investigating going on I think it is going to make a lot of noise, some speeches will be made, a lot of interviews will be given and then in the end, nothing will be done. ...The umpires have been lousy so far this year, but still are in no way as bad the those NFL blind SOB's that they have ref the football games. ...When it rains the dogs don't like to go out and do what they got to do. So I got to go out and stand out there too and get soaked. Sometimes I wonder if they do it on purpose? :lol:

You know something? I forgot to include that. Happy Easter to everybody and their families on MvpMods!

Updated to 4-16 ...I really hate the way this season is starting for the Yankees. After losing two games in Minnesota that they should have won, they are under .500 again. ...Well, the wife comes back today. It was a quiet week. Just me and the dogs and the YES network and the computer. Now I'll find out when she gets home how much money she spent. :dead: ...One final thing about this Texas trip. The only way I'll go next year, and I am sure I mentioned this, is that if the Yankees are scheduled to be there when they go next year. The thing is, I don't like air travel. And I don't mean flying. I am talking about the crap you got to put up with at the airports. Take your shoes off, take your belt off, etc. Pretty soon you'll be required to just wear your shorts and then get dressed before you board. ...I love daytime baseball. ...Please Yankees, in 2007, don't have Bernie Williams on the roster. ...Anyone know what hot new movies are supposed to be coming out? Usually around Memorial Day some blockbuster gets released. ...You know what I think one of the biggest wastes of time is? The NFL MOCK draft. It's not an official one, it doesn't count or mean anything. It's a "let's pretend" draft. And people watch it. ...And have any of you ever watched the real NFL draft? Lot of non stop action there :bs: ...Do you know that Oprah Winfrey has her own magazine each month? Guess who's on the cover of it each time?

Updated to 4-9 ...Today will be the first time I will see the Yankees on TV past the first inning. And from what I have not seen, I am missing nothing. I hate these west coast games. ...Who's the *&^%$##&^ that first thought of this "they can score 1,000 runs this year" crap? Doesn't anyone else think that they are trying too hard to do exactly that? ...The wife in in Texas the entire week with her family and sister that lives out there in Plano, Texas. Nice place, nice area and a nice state to visit. Why didn't I go again this year? I don't feel like going shopping every day. That's all they did last year. I didn't get a chance to see a Rangers game when I was there but I know where the purse stores are. :evil: And right there is your reason I am writing this today in New York State and not in Texas. ...Whatever happened to Axl Rose? ...I felt bad for Tribetime when I read this week that his I-Pod was stolen. There's just no reason to go around doing stuff like that and I hope that somehow he gets it back. Those things aren't exactly cheap. ...A lot of people around here are kind of concerned that the Buffalo Bills might leave the area. Not me. I'm not from Buffalo, I don't live there and I'm not a Bills fan. My team's 3,000 miles away in Oakland. But I still feel for them. It wasn't that long ago when that lying snake Art Modell screwed the loyal Browns fans and left Cleveland. ...Who's the best team in the NBA this year? I don't know. If I cared I'd pick up a paper and find out. My basketball season ends after the NCAA finals. ...Another guy who isn't funny that a lot of people seem to think he is: Will Ferrell. He's another one when I see on TV I change the channel. ...Oh good!! Now Anna decides she wants Kris back. She got the attention she wanted and now she's happy. I don't care how hot she looks or how hot people think she is, she isn't worth it. ...Back to the Yankees for a second because, well, these are my thoughts of the day. Giambi is hitting .125. I am confident he will start hitting soon. He's too good of a hitter to be like that. But Bernie Williams (.176) and Jorge Posada (.158) are not surprising me at all. I think the best way Bernie can help the Yankees is to get nice and injured for five months and then retire. ...Barry Bonds cried on his TV show on ESPN. I didn't see it because I had no plans of watching it. I just heard someone talking about it so if anyone can fill me on why he did this stunt, let me know. ...I think that Eudora Pro or Mozilla Thunderbird are the best mail clients out there. ...I am still up in the air about buying "Baseball Mogul 2007"

Updated to 4-2 ...Finally, April is here! It's always been one of my favorite months because of baseball and that will never change. ...Not a good way to start the season if you are a Yankee fan. The Yanks start their game at 10 pm tomorrow out in Oakland. No way I can watch that. The only good thing about this is that they get one of their west coast trips out of the way. ...Can the Yankees score 1,000 runs? I don't care. Maybe they'll need it because some of those pitchers are still hurt and some I don't trust (Mussina). ...I got King Kong on DVD yesterday, but I still would rather see it on one of those big screen 3D theaters that are around. ...If Ben Stiller is in a movie, I just have a hard time watching it. I just don't think he's funny. ...So Anna Benson is divorcing her wimpy husband Kris? Not a good move on her part because now she's going to go back to being a nobody like she was before. Maybe she can get her stripper job back? I'm sure she can get some good references. ...David Ortiz, Alfonso Soriano and Javier the Choker Vazquez are 1-2-3 on my personal hate list. ...Anyone getting an X-box 360? Or are you going to wait for the PS3? All I know is that I can't afford either one. I'm still using my original X-box. ...Speaking of X-Box, I had a subscription to X-Box live that lasted one year. I got it in March of 2005 and it ended just a few days ago. I had to call them before the renewal date because if I didn't, I would have to pay another $49.99. I cancelled not because it was a bad thing, but because for months I never played anyone on it and it turned into a waste of money on my part. ...That cortisone shot in my elbow I had in my arm not too long ago seems to have worked wonders. I really feel a lot better. ...Turn your clocks ahead today!

Updated to 3-26 ....We are so close to opening day now. In fact, the season starts next week! ...The first game the Yankees play in Oakland, at night. What the hell? I have off the next day but I can't watch the entire thing because they usually end around 1:30 in the morning. I'm not a night owl like a lot of you guys in here are. I just can't do it. ...I was happy to see the Japanese team win the World Baseball Classic. I sure as hell wasn't pulling for Cuba. The Japanese team played the game very well and worked together pretty good. They weren't unselfish. Which brings me too.... ....Alfonso Soriano. No one has ever accused him of being unselfish. Selfish, of course. In fact he is. But he's never been called unselfish. And there's a good reason for that. He's the perfect example of what is wrong with baseball today. He's the poster boy for the "Screw you, Me-First" kind of player. The only reason why he agreed to go to left field was not for the team. Are you kidding me? He did it for the money he was to be paid. He figured he gave Washington enough grief so now he'll take his little glove and go out to left and misplay fly balls from April to September like a good boy. If there's ever a guy who needs a fastball right at the head, it's this bum. ...I was on vacation this week and it was fun. I did nothing. Kicked back and enjoyed myself. Of course, the week was a blur. I could get used to this. ...I am kind of sorry I got into this league we have going. Sometimes you find things out about people that maybe you wouldn't have wanted to know in the first place. ...I like looking at people's avatars on here just to see what they have. I don't change mine a lot, but I do on occasion. Some of the avatars I can't figure out. I mean, go look at Tribetime's for example. That black guy sure does not look like an Indian. :lol:

Updated to 3-19 ...Sorry for the late post in this, I was out of town for the weekend and I just returned. Sure it sucks being out of town, but it's over and that's that. ....Got to get a cortisone shot in my right elbow tomorrow morning. I hope it doesn't hurt as much as I think it is. ...Driving down to Binghamton, NY, I took route 390 which turns into route 17. I passed up Geneseo and I rolled down my window and waved to SwinginSoriano. ...Funny moment of the weekend: the in-laws gave me a black baseball hat with the confederate flag on it and above the flag it said "Git R Done" I said Ye-hoo when I put it on but was immediately corrected because I should have said "Yee-haw". ...I enjoy watching Jackie Chan movies. ...So the U.S. lost in the World Baseball Classic? Oh well. Somehow we will make it. ...I purchased "Baseball for Windows" and the disc does not work. It says device driver not found. So they sent me a new disc. I haven't tried it yet because I'm afraid to. Hahahhaha ...How do you guys in the NY area like the new Mets channel? I have not had a chance to watch it yet and honestly I won't once the season starts. ...I joined the first league on our website and I just hope I don't look too bad when I play against everyone else. Those guys are good.

Come to the Dark Side...

Updated to 3-12 ...I just love the Mozilla Firefox web browser. I think it is the best one I've ever used. I remember when we had to pay for these browsers about ten or eleven years ago. Netscape would charge thirty bucks for their new version and an additional ten dollars for the "gold" version. What a joke that was. ...I'm no Braves fan but I bet every fan of that team must have held their breath when Jeff Franceour tumbled over first base in the ninth inning of the US-Canada game. That's my only worry about this tournament. An injury to a player on your team. Other than that, I love that baseball is played all over the world. ...I used to enjoy reading Peter Gammon's column over at ESPN.com every Sunday. I thought it was pretty good. But since he got elected to the Hall of Fame, the ESPN people made his stuff Insider material only. Like ESPN needs the money to pull a stunt like this. Oh well, at least I can still read Mike Lupica at the Daily News. ...That new book about Barry Bonds and the lastest steroid allegations make me wonder how he is going to be able to deny it this time? It always brings me back to that picture of Lyle Alzado on the cover of Sports Illustrated. His warnings to other athletes didn't mean much I guess. ...From all the reports I have been reading, Carl Pavano looks pretty good down there in Florida. I just hope he bounces back this year. God knows we need it. ...Given the choice of going to two stores to get stuff, I would take Target over Walmart any day of the week. Walmart sucks. Target is cleaner and looks a lot better. ...Had to get the New York State inspection this week, it ended up costing $630 dollars. Son of a *&^%$. What can go wrong will go wrong. ...The wife's going to Texas in April. I am not going because of a few reasons. First of all I don't have that week off and second of all I won't go 1,500 miles again like I did last year to just go shopping. Next year, if the Rangers are in town when they go (her father goes for the Nascar race there) I might go just to see a game. When she is gone I told her I "had a lot of work to do around the house." Yeah, right. I'll empty the garbage and pick up the mail. That's it. ...Vacation next week for me. I'll be out of town the weekend and back on Sunday. My random thoughts for next week will be delayed for late Sunday so if anyone wants to jump in, go ahead.

1. I'm not a fan of that interview section on Fuzz's site. He interviewed two people on it that caused trouble on here (Moose and Deathnotronic) and it is obvious that they had axes to grind. 2. What if they are? Do you realize the work you have to do to keep this kind of hoax up? And why would you do that? Just to have two different accounts on here? 3. Your contest sounds like fun, I'll do my best.

Updated to 3-5 ...I hate musicals. My wife bought this movie called Rent and I know she is going to try and trap me to watch it with her. I'd rather watch American Idol. ...Two more weeks to go and I am on vacation. With today's release of Total Classics Phase 5, this time off can not come faster. Thank you TeamFuzz. ...Kind of a sad day for me, today's the day John Belushi died in 1982. Belushi was always one of my favorites and he really shined in movies like Animal House and the Blues Brothers, but he played a serious role in a rarely seen movie called Continental Divide that earned a lot of praise when it came out in 1981. R.I.P. to an original Saturday Night Live cast member. ...The Yankees made a sign to apologize to the spring training fans for the team not having Damon and Jeter and the other three Yankees at the World Baseball Classic. And I don't blame them. I don't like this WBC and I just want it to end. ...Say, does anyone know what the blockbuster movies that are coming out this year? Some pretty good ones usually start coming out in May and in the summer there are a bunch of them worth seeing. ....I love dogs, but I hate cats. ...You know what I've been wanting to do for awhile now? Step into a batting cage and take some swings. But around here I don't know if there are any inside ones. I know of a outside one that I go to in the summer, but that's some time away. ...Anyone ever watch Cold Case on Sunday nights? That's one hell of a show. ...Think spring, think spring!!

You lucky guy. I went to a catholic high school and it was tough.

1. Snepp is a he. 2. Why won't winter exist in 2015 and where did you hear something like that?
