    I was hoping for the punishment asked for by the great Wall Street Journal writer Jason Gay: 1) Brady has to play every road game with a pair of big, furry, UGG boots on. 2) He has to wear a magicians hat for all post game conferences for the rest of his life. 3) He (or Belichick, it does not matter) have to go on a 3 week kayak trip this summer with Rex Ryan. Tattoo is optional. 4) Brady must eat a whole pizza during every single Deflatriot defensive stand. 5) During each Deflatriot/Jet game Br…

    All Big Feet have to do to remain hidden is to stay near the AT during peak human activity. I've seen hundreds of Big Feet there every year heading north. Believe me you do not have to call them. I like them even though they smell bad.

    Another issue is the whole "integrity of the league" thing (if there is such a thing in the NFL). Several other players have been given many suspended games, if not whole seasons, after recreational drug issues, outside of play violence and other issues not connected to the fictional "integrity of the league". If Gooduh glosses over a rich extremely WHITE player, will he get away with it?

    Quote from max.patch: “but realistically brady will get 1 game max and maybe a fine. team will get fined. ” I agree and the fine will be like 10 cents to us mortals. The NFL is more like the WWF every single season. To paraphrase Kimmel: Well boys and girls if you cheat you'll win the Super bowl and become the MVP of the NFL. I cannot help yet again feeling bad for Pete Rose.

    So any bets on the "punishment" now that the "investigation" is complete?

  • Health insurance woes

    Post

    The medical establishment is completely out of control as they completely own both Democrats and Republicans. Our system now is like the commercial where the guy picks things up and puts them down in the health club. We enter the front of the medical establishment, they take our wallets and quickly usher us out the back door to the alley providing us with nothing. I have to say we do deserve this system.

    I used to laugh at LNT extremes, because for decades people actually practiced an excellent level of LNT. Unfortunately it's extreme is longer funny to me at least they give a crap (or not). I'm picking up trash more and more each year. Now I'd much rather people cared too much. Humans cannot ever seem to get things just right. Maybe the robots will be able to when they take over.

    Sorry misread, CT/NY and CT/Mass. I speed read waaaaay to much.

    Quote from max.patch: “the "obvious" parking spot - CT 341 and schaghticoke road - is specifically mentioned in the atc state guidebook as not recommended overnight. ” I have parked there overnight. I would be nervous for more than that, not for any reason but just a feeling. I have parked at Jug End for multiple nights but that is way north. There is a school near the elbow trail which is close to Sages however I don't remember the name. I just go there and ask to park, which they have said yes…

  • Quote from WanderingStovie: “I have never tried cooking a freezer bag. How long does it take? ” I know you're kidding but freezer bags are just that, for freezing. Pour hot water in them and you are ingesting plastic volatiles. However judging by the popularity of this practice it must add to the taste as it can't be to save washing. Is there another reason?

  • Quote from jimmyjam: “Now if you see a jap bike on the side of the road you give him the middle finger, meaning I have no metric tools you should have bought America and screw you.” I realize that you were being funny, but just in case you were serious, Bikers do not drive past any stopped bike on the road without checking. We might insult you with a smile. In the old days, pre and during AMF it was the Jap bikes that stopped to help us.

  • Quote from AnotherKevin: “I also don't want a Monday morning quarterback deciding that I was reckless, because everyone has 20/20 hindsight.” Unfortunately you are doing the wrong activity. When a motorcycle goes down, other bikers gather together and help. If a skier goes down a black diamond by mistake they get other skiers signing their cast. Hikers do far more than Monday Morning Quarterbacking, they pile on and on and on. My theory is that it's because most are really good weather hikers. I…

    Quote from Drybones: “I'm TP paranoid, I know what dry oak leaves are like, I keep two stashes of TP in separate ziplock bags, the spare is in case I leave the roll laying on a log or get it wet.” I also would not classify that as paranoid. What you may want to carry instead is a small collapsible bucket. I have one from OR that is very light. When it's hot, washing the salt off you crotch and pits at least every other day keeps the swamp ass away.

    Quote from Grinder: “Does that mean we have to extend Cafe membership to cats?” They may already have. I suspect Rasty to be a cat, as he has clearly manipulated this drift to the subject of cats. I also am a suspect what better disguise than a bird.

    Quote from Rasty: “cats are assholes.” Cats do not make war. Cats rarely fight to the death. They do have some human characteristics, however nowhere near enough to call them assholes.

    This thread has convinced me of something I have long suspected. The web was created by cats for videos of themselves and for them to obtain information as to where the more crazy humans are located. There is simply NO other reason for little tips and ideas to drift to extremely weird cat stories since cats are very very rare on any trail I've ever been on. Also I suddenly have a powerful impulse to add yet another weird and stupid story about the only cat I've ever come across. I hereby refuse …

  • Quote from Rasty: “How much land does the Federal government own in New York? The answer is jack squat. So much for equal protection under the law.” Yes we have a thing called "Forever Wild". Unfortunately both forever and wild have been and always will be subject to endless "legal" and political interpretation. You are correct we very fortunate to have anything other than jack squat.

    By the way, great butt wiping info. You just don't get that anywhere else. For LD hiking there is no better topic.

    Quote from milkman: “On other sites I had to be sure that I was so freaking politically correct it made ya gag. You always had to make sure you were saying it in a way that it didn't look like you were being pushy or "my way or the highway" type statement or you would be accused of doing so.” Alligators suck, they leave the swamp and forget they are cold blooded.
