I get the corned beef angle, but guess who introduced corned beef to Irish immigrants in the U.S.? It’s not tied to St. Patrick’s Day in Ireland.

The Sabres are good! To make a mixed metaphor, this timeline sure likes to throw a curveball.

I had to get these chips to see if they really taste like a Reuben, that most Irish of sandwiches. 😄

I think it’s fascinating that the Celtic languages retain so many similarities, but are absolutely distinct and have their own historical circumstances (to put it lightly) and future paths.

That’s interesting. I’m still in the early stages of learning Gaelige, so I tend to use whatever the introductory words are, but there are so many ways to get across an idea.

Who called it homeopathic medicine and not dilutions of grandeur?

Celebrating false spring my deluding myself into opening the windows “to let the warm air in.” It’s 55F right now.

It's The Muppet Show with our very special guest star The Ship of Theseus!

Sweet decks for skater fans of The Dead Milkmen, or those who just appreciate the art.

Agreed. I would love to see a “Buffrocuse” corridor where we and visitors could easily experience all three metros as one. Also, the last time we took a train to NYC we drove to Albany first and caught it there, because it was faster and easier than taking the train from Rochester.

I’d take chocolate chip or oatmeal scotchies over oatmeal raisin every single time.

Ugh, I’m sorry you’re having to deal with this.

We keep time the same, but reschedule everything an hour later.

Of course, it’s not really about the stores, but about the people I went there with and the fun we had.

I’m “I just watched a walk-through video of the mall I went to in my teens with family and friends, because it’s about to be torn down” years old.

You bet I called out the names of all the stores I remembered.

I hope they don’t decide to make Hal Jordan into a DC version of Wolverine.

I liked the Lanterns trailer—Green Lantern Corps was my favorite comic growing up—but Hal Jordan acted more like Guy Gardiner to me. Maybe that’s just because of what they happened to show in the trailer.

If you ask social media, AI is either the greatest invention ever or the end of the world. If you ask Al, he’ll tell you it’s short for Alan, Albert, or Alfred.

We all got one this morning as part of Employee Appreciation Week.

I still have the original (with no way to use it) and got the new one. It’s great, and there are some games on it I didn’t even knew existed, but I do miss two of my favorite games, Bump ‘N’ Jump and Mission X.

The Willy Wonka movie is a great primer for life. One bit I rarely see mentioned that captures social media so well is when Wonka enters a Mozart musical key code to open a door and Mrs. TV smugly says “Rachmaninov” to the whole room and no one in particular.

Great job!

*only using it

I wonder how many actually believe it and how many know their troops well and are using it as a motivator. Either way, huge yikes.

For 30 years, my dad, a public school teacher, also served in the Air National Guard every other weekend and all through the summers. My mom, a school occupational therapist, also worked on the side. They’re in great shape now financially, but only because they hustled & scrimped for decades.
