No no TJ Brk disappeared in a fog of lies and gunpowder smoke, carrying an aluminum softball bat and a head full of mental illness, into the wilds somewhere north of Tremblant.
Yeah that was a pretty serious public meltdown if I remember right. He was hit pretty hard when we lost Plakespeare because he was also struggling with cancer and somehow lost his VA coverage.
Wherever Teej is, I just hope he hung onto the blonde. She was quite the looker.
Next winter I’m gonna don my Mt Brighton maintenance crew hat, get loaded, strip naked and run through the snow covered streets of Ellicottville in honor of Dex.
He was certainly an odd ball who may have told a few stories not based on any factsQuote:

Almost as big as getting a total moron into the office of the Presidency.
Upstate is the scene of one of the greatest public hoaxes in American History?
I feel like on a list of top 10 hoaxes in American history, this would not be our only entryQuote:

It’s that kind of grit and moxie that I admire so much your people.Quote:

more just rural ime. I guess the urban drunks are on foot.
Fucker! Another shit bike ride today. Fighting traffic. No shoulder. Burned out buildings. Shitty overcast skies. Pancake flat roads. I gotta get outta WNY.

A bit grim in winter. Well, it was, back when we used to have winter.
Grim. If I recall correctly, Jer was the arbiter of grim round these parts.
If there’s anything that I learned growing up catching 38 more days of sunshine during the winter in NE Ohio than those that endured 38 more grey, snowy, days in the Upstate, was that you had to be pretty metal to endure that kind of shit. I don’t think the grim could handle it.
You might just make it here after all soldier.Quote:

Bristol Mtn had one cut run without snowmaking, I don't think I ever saw it open. It's no longer on the map.
As for WNY or Finger Lakes being road biking heaven? Sure, go ahead and run with that.
plus it’s all Sideways 2 in summer now. who is making the good upstate pinot these days?Quote:

Drilling a deer is a right of passage for WNY drivers.
You allowed to keep the deer you hit in upstate NY if you report them? In VT we can, as long as you don't touch it until the police or game warden arrives. Mm, mm, do love me some roadkill.Quote:
