Currently taking cheep plastic spoon donations from friends, family and neighbors, to plant a extended "Spoon Garden" for March Madness. This time honored tradition began in the early 1990's with Coach Charlie Spoonhour and the "Spoonball" era. As a tribute to our beloved late great Bills coach, Sai...

Billikens Climbing BracketVille Beanstalk!
Wow I DN if anyone has looked at the NCAA men's basketball RPI rankings, but my mighty lil' Saint Louis University Billikens have achieved a national ranking of 16, 15 in the coaches poll! This is the highest they have been ranked since the mid 1950's. Last year they were 1 win away from the Sweet 1...

JR does not like the business or livelihood taken away from the south side more then likely because it takes away a potential customer for him, that's all he cares about $$$, anything to make a buck, or coheres free alcohol. I will say his anti American sentiments and hatred have diminished quite a ...

Ron, I don't think that TA has "moderators" per say. Anyone can push a button on that site to report a inappropriate post that is not appropriate for the "TA community" Destination Experts are not moderators, and she is not a DE. Bottom line is JR is using TA for financial gain which is against the ...

TA and their DE's are a joke. PV Jennybean has been "chompin at the bit" :lol: for YEARS to be one. That will never happen, partly to the fact she sent me a PM there once threatening to "smack me in the head" and that's frightening because she is a true heavyweight! She also has PM'd other users on ...

Sounds like with prices like that maybe folks should drink a few glasses at home to more quickly reached the desired effect at the establishment. This thread just got me thinking, I wonder who holds the record of being banned out of PV drinking establishments? I would think it would be pretty close ...

Keith, I have a feeling that this wine thing is one of the "oldest tricks in the book" when it comes to being a restaurateur who likes to make money. Undoubitly the markup on the wine is huge, that has to be one reason he probabaly doesn’t want to post it. The part that gets me is your more of just ...

sour grapes
OK. So now the major unspeakable scandal and unrest on TA is a post from a regular poster on many of these boards who was complaining about paying $80USD for a bottle of wine at TL that Chef Bruce had paired with the meal, which has since been deleted and the post has been closed. This on top of the...

I know that Rick advertises on his board and also offers free classified ads. As for JR, I have never heard of any disclaimers on his for profit endeavor, I also know some folks who went on one of these when they were first suggested by another poster on TA, and they did not have a clue about that. ...

PV travel forum review
Does anyone know if any or most travel boards that you find when you surf the internet are advertiser funded? OV and VS are owned by business owners, so sometimes can be more spicy if not more entertaining. LP appears to be advertiser funded, as does expatforum.com, but it appears to be to a lesser ...

Card's spent Ace
Broken. Damaged beyond repair. Chris Carpenter is injured with tendon and nerve damage in his pitching arm, and at 38 years old is probabaly done. He was NAILS in the 2011 NLDS beating the mighty Phillies in game 5 on the road in front of the worst fans in the game (boobirds). Aside from Bob Gibson,...

Ha-key, Hoops, Lombardi trophey..
HEY! I know all you Canadians are glad your hockey is back, eah! :D I have a friend who is originally from Detroit and worked for GM. He loves the game, and is a converted Blues Fan. The only vanity licence plates he could get once was "HA-KEY" (all other variations were taken) Good for you hockey f...

Last days of VS?
IMHO, we can only hope so. Here is a quote from Rick, on his VS board: "I have to admit that I am very tired of having to deal with retards and psychopaths. Some of them go far out of their way to come here to attack me. I never even go to their nest at the Fox's network." Self centered denial and b...

I DN if anyone watched the hurricane Sandy music special on NBC tonite, to help those affected by the storm, but it was excellent. Billy Joel, Aerosmith, and The Boss, just to name a few. Springsteen closed the show, but did not play his hit "Sandy" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I1NvDgt153M It's ir...
