My first thought was "Silence of the @#$%&." . . and whether Haninbal Lecter ever dined on someone named Spencer. Many restaurants name specialty dishes after someone famous. . . normally someone local. So perhaps this is it, as I've never heard of a cut of meat called Spencer.by RAMbeau - Bucky's Pub
When I w working as a sportswriter, a local organization (Friendly House) that serves lesser privileged kids in town held a "pro" wrestling card as a benefit fund raiser. Because of that, I made mention of the up and coming matches to help them out. I even attended. . . and here's where it got weird. During a break between matches, I decided to exercise my press privilege toby RAMbeau - Bucky's Pub

You mean it isn't real? I suppose, next, you're going to tell me there's no Santa Clause. Or an Easter bunny. . . or the world isn't flat. Shame. . . shame. . . shame.by RAMbeau - Bucky's Pub
So this is a for what it's worth. . . . A couple of guys at the gym swear by the pellet smokers. . . especially for their "set it and forget it" aspect.by RAMbeau - Bucky's Pub

In another sense, totally related as it comes to technology. Like Orwell. . . looking back into the future. I've often said it. . . and I know you know. . . . I think "Casablanca" is the greatest movie ever made. Well, I wasn't exactly honest with you, as there is another one that I find equal to Casablanca. . . only in a different mode. . . science fiction. The movie? "Theby RAMbeau - Bucky's Pub
Google fills in the gaps before I'm even able enter the subject matter. . . It's not just spooky. . . it's downright scary. . . "thought police" scary, which makes me wonder if Orwell saw this happening many years ago. Or was it just a lucky guess.by RAMbeau - Bucky's Pub

Man. . . I gotta have me one of them shirts. I'll wear it at the gym, sending a message to all those "hunks" sporting Superman shirts (there really are some). . . there's a new sheriff in town. They'll have nothing on me. Do you have a source where I can get it?by RAMbeau - Bucky's Pub
You just may regret telling that story one last time. It's not a threat. . . or a promise. . . consider it a warning.by RAMbeau - Bucky's Pub
. . . I call it the Al Bundy effect. . . who will spend the rest of his life bragging on his four touchdowns in one game for Polk High. . . all the time working as a shoe salesman. Now, Jimmy, I'm not saying those of whom you speak are doomed to the same. I'm sure over time, they'll find their route to success in some way or another. THEN. .

I think we both served around the same time. . .I was from 67 to 70. It could be my CO (not corrections officer, lol) had his own standards. . . OR I could be the only soldier with a shaving brush loaded with dust. And yours weren't. For the remainder of my service I never had a shaving brush again.by RAMbeau - Bucky's Pub
i'm not exactly sure which would rank as THE most embarrassing. . . and now as I look back they're kind of funny. But not at the time of occurrence. Ironically, they both happened while I was in the army. Embarrassing moment . . . the first. . . I was stationed in the battalion headquarters.

It's one thing to send congratulations to your team that just lost a world championship, claiming a good season when the team just fell short. . . On the other hand. . it's another to celebrate a victory even with the loss. But then, it's understandably Boston.by RAMbeau - Bucky's Pub
When the Blues arrived at the arena for their scheduled walk through. . . I guess you would call it a "skate through" .the ice had not been prepared and was rough. The Blues' GM immediately went to the arena's head of maintenance to get it done. . . . His response? "Who are you" he said. . . and he responded "I'm the Blues General Manager."

When the Rams were among the worst and went on to win the SB. In January, the Blues had the worst record in the NHL and headed to a disasterous year. Then won The Stanley Cup. I said this on the other board. .. . I hope ALL Rams fans join us in seeing this as dulling the Boston arrogance. Maybe this finally breaks the "curse."by RAMbeau - RamsFootballFans.com
And even more significant, they broke the Boston curse that has for so long haunted us. I hope even the LA Rams fans elsewhere appreciate this . . . flagging that Beantown arrogance. So for tonight, can we call you BluesRidgeHorns?by RAMbeau - Bucky's Pub

I understand you have another neighbor. . . Mr. Dirt. Which begs the question. . . who's meaner than Dirt. Granted, I'm two episodes of Law and Order short of my degree in jurisprudence.

I participate in a Facebook page sponsored by the Amputee Coalition. At times, they'll show videos of what some have accomplished. As mine is a minor condition in comparison I watch in amazement as to what they can do. i'm most moved by the videos of children. . . .

I'm watching the Cards/Cubs game. . . score is 2-1 Cards. . .top of the ninth. . . man on first. Pitcher throws two balls. And at that moment, he takes a quick deep breath to calm himself.

A thing called Yoga. And in doing so, I'm dispelling the "real men don't eat quiche" myth. Although I'm the only male in my class and it remains a female dominated effort.
