Halfway through September. Pretty soon, we’ll need to start using the F word. (Furnace)

It’s after Labor Day and it was as late as it can be this year. Time to put the pool away for the year.

Easy. First, realize you’re ready to die. Then, head South.

The F-word was in frequent use here at work following last night’s game vs the Pats...

I was flipping through the channels and flipped it back on and saw the Patriots final score. I couldn’t believe it.

The football gods must hate Buffalo almost as much as they hate Cincinnati.

Obama and his corrupt camarilla
Have a yellow streak (shall we say “amarilla?”)
Afraid of Kim, and Iran
But Barry claims he’s the man
A modern-day (Black) Pancho Villa
