Good morning Post and sports update
 

Good morning all and yes, the coffee is on. I do a daily post on a number of other borads and thought it would be cool here as well. Well, I took a day off today making it a nice 4 day weekend away from West Point. I have some running around to do today but hopefully later on I'll be able to watch some more great college football as Beth and I did yesterday. I hope everyone has a super weekend and gets to enjoy a few of thier favorites through out it....... :usa

Good morning all and yes, the coffee is on. In a little while, I'm gonna head over to Hometown Bagels & Deli (formely known as Bubba's Bagels) and pick up a couple of tastey treats for breakfast. http://www.hometownbagelsanddeli.com/ Then later on today, one of our neices is having a bridal shower so the guys that are not busy will be heading on over to Schelsingers Cigar Bar / Hudson Valley Cigars to enjoy a cigar or two. There are a couple of Bowl games on this afternoon so that should be cool. This evening we have two NFL playoff games on as well which will finish off the night. I hope everyone has a super Saturday and gets to enjoy a favorite or two or........ :chr

Re: Good morning Post and sports update
 

Just got home from work, enjoying a pot of Guat Antigua and getting ready for some football...

Re: Good morning Post and sports update
 

Good morning all and yes, the joe is brewin'. I had a great day yesterday with a nice stop at Schlesinger's Cigar Bar where I got to enjoy a Hoyo de Monterrey Excalibur Emperor with at least 10+ years of age and then a mystery stick that I was gifted by Saxjazzman. Our buddy Ralph (ilcchef2) showed up as well and we exchanged sticks as always. There were some great football games on and it was good to see Utah go 13 - 0 for the season. Today, I'll be getting ready for the Eagles / Vikings game with the hopes that Philly will be taking on the NY Giants next week. I hope everyone has a great day and enjoys it as well........ :D

Re: Good morning Post and sports update
 

Good Morning.

Finally a day off here. Coffee and a RASCC ready to go :)

Re: Good morning Post and sports update
 

Enjoy your morning & smoke, Dave! Just finished a cup of Joe with a nice, smooth La Aurora Leoninos Robusto that had rested 2 months. Might need another month to be perfect, but very good, nonetheless. Maybe a little golf for me this morning, then watch the NFL playoff games this afternoon. Have a great Sunday, All!:ss

Re: Good morning Post and sports update
 

good football day

Re: Good morning Post and sports update
 

Good morning all and here's to a new work week. The coffee is on and it looks like bagels are on this morning's breakfast menu. Well, the Eagles beat the Vikings 26 - 14 which equates to a Eagles / Giants match up next Sunday at 1300 (1pm) in the Meadowlands. That should be another great game and I'll be hootin' and howlin' as I did yesterday. Anyway, I hope everyone has a great week and gets to enjoy a few of your favorites through out it........ :D

Re: Good morning Post and sports update
 

Looking forward to the Eagles/Giants game. I ready to go home already.

Re: Good morning Post and sports update
 

Eagles are playing well. Giants better play well or they are going to lose

Re: Good morning Post and sports update
 

I was glad to see the Buckeyes lose. The Big 10 sucks even more than the ACC.

Re: Good morning Post and sports update
 

Good morning all and yes, the coffee is on as always. Congrats to Texas for winning over Ohio State last night in the Fiesta Bowl, 24 - 21. That leaves only the BCS Championship game this Thursday with Florida taking on Oklahoma at 2000 (8pm). That should be a back and forth game as well and it's still up in the air as to who the defined winner is. Anyway, I hope everyone has a great day and enjoys....... :)

Re: Good morning Post and sports update
 

You are pissing off all the Ball State and Tulsa fans by forgetting the GMAC Bowl. Go Sooners (only because I hate the Gators).

Re: Good morning Post and sports update
 

good morning to the asylum and charlie

Re: Good morning Post and sports update
 

Good morning all and always, the coffee is on. As a matter of fact, it's been on since 0330 (3:30 am) since we had an Adverse Weather Condition Conference Call resulting from a major ice storm. Currently at West Point we have a "Code Red" condition until 1000 (10am) which means everything is shut down. After that, we go to a "Code White" for the remainder of the day and that simply equates to if you have the vacation time saved up, you can stay home with no questions asked. Last night's GMAC Bowl was a blow out with Tulsa Stomping Ball State, 45-13. Here is a down and dirty link from ESPN stating the facts:

http://espn.go.com/video/clip?id=3815219

As for today, we have a variety of NHL and NBA games on as well as a number of college basketball match ups. I hope everyone has a safe day and enjoys a favorite or two if the get the opportunity........ :tu

Re: Good morning Post and sports update
 

Go Gators (only because I love the Gators....I have no hate for the Sooners at all). :)

Re: Good morning Post and sports update
 

Go Gators (only because I have money on the Gators). :D

Re: Good morning Post and sports update
 

Good morning all and yes, the joe is brewin'. Tonight is the BCS Bowl game with Florida taking on Oklahoma at 2000 (8pm). Being that it's Thursday, we'll be at Schlesinger's Cigar Bar / Hudson Valley Cigars this evening watching some great college ball and enjoying primo stogies. If you're close by and have the time, stop on over and join in on the fun. If not, I hope you enjoy the game and smoke a favorite or two as well....... :D

Re: Good morning Post and sports update
 

Go Sooners!! I am tired of winter.

Re: Good morning Post and sports update
 

should be a great game today.

Re: Good morning Post and sports update
 

Good morning all and TGIF!!!! The coffee is on and the Florida Gators beat the Oklahoma Sooners 24 - 14. For the full story, look here:

http://www.gatorzone.com/story.php?id=15086

I had a good time last night started off the evening at Schlesingers Ciagr Bar enjoying a couple of my favorites and then indulging in some great conversation. Hudson Valley Cigars was packed due to the winter weather and of course the crowd that was there to see the BCS Championship game. This weekend will be filled with NFL playoff games and I'll be hootin' and howlin' during the Eagles / Giants game Sunday at 1300 (1pm), GO EAGLES!!!! Anyway, I hope everyone has a super weekend and enjoys....... :D

Re: Good morning Post and sports update
 

Damn Gators!! :fl:fl

Re: Good morning Post and sports update
 

congrats to the Gators

Re: Good morning Post and sports update
 

Good morning all and yes, the coffee is on. I had a great day yesterday, got a nice box of cigars in from CigarBid(yeah, I still visit the devil now and then :D ), talked with a number of S / BOTL on the phone about the upcoming Quad State Herf and then had a nice quiet evening home with Beth. Today, the weather guessers are calling for 7 to 9 inches of snow starting this afternoon and continuing through into tomorrow morning:

http://forecast.weather.gov/MapClick...ield2=-74.0273

I've got some running around to do prior to that in preperation of Sunday's Eagles Football party. I see that the odds are now 4 1/2 points advantage for the Giants (3 for just being home team), so even the bookies are thinking that this is going to be a close game. May the better team prevail, but I got to root for the Eagle. I hope everyone has a great day and enjoys a favorite or two or......... :)

Re: Good morning Post and sports update
 

It's snowing in NEPA. No MBA class for me. :D

Re: Good morning Post and sports update
 

Good morning all and yes, the joe is brewin'. I'm plannin' on a big breakfast today with bacon, eggs, homefries and all of the rest of the fixin's to get ready for today's big game at 1300 (1pm). The Philadelphia Eagles and the New York Giants will go head to head in the Meadowlands and it's going to be a good game and the better of the two teams will be victor. I'll be rootin' for Philly and to get things going, I have posted the link for the Eagles fight song:

http://play.rbn.com/?url=nfl/nfl/ope...=rtsp&rbnkey=1

Then, later on today, the Pittsburg Steelers will battle with the San Diego Chargers @ 1645 (4:45pm) in Pittsburg. That should be another tough game and hopefully the Steelers win that one for my brother-in-law Gary who's a big fan of them as well. Anyway, I hope everyone has a super Sunday and gets to enjoy a favorite cigar or two....... :D

GO EAGLES!!!!!

Re: Good morning Post and sports update
 

I just gotta ask, How can you have a Yankee Avatar and cheer for the Iggles?!? Isn't that similar to cheering for the Dark Side in the Star Wars series. Good luck today, looking forward to a great game. And as a wise man once told me

Go Big Blue

Re: Good morning Post and sports update
 

Good morning, I am stuck at work today.

Re: Good morning Post and sports update
 

Yeah baby, 23 - 11 final score, Eagles win......... :D :D :D :D :D

In refernce to how I can be a Yankees fan and also cheer for the Iggles, I'm retired military and haven't had a home town since 1976. I've been a Yankees fan since 1968 and an Eagles fan from as long as I can remember.

Re: Good morning Post and sports update
 

We lost :mad: Great game by the Iggles. Can't take anything away from them. Congratulations and good luck in the next round. I am going to find something sturdy and a 3 ft. piece of rope :hn

Now I turn my attention to the pinstripes!

Re: Good morning Post and sports update
 

Good morning all and yes, there's a fresh pot of coffee on. Well, we know that the Eagles and the Steelers both won yesterday. Next weeks match up is the Eagles will play the Cardinals in Arizona at 1500 (3pm) and then the Steelers will take on the Ravens in Pittsburg at 1830 (6:30pm). Here's the link to where you can find the entire playoff breakdown:

Anyway, I hope everyone has a great week and enjoys........ :D

GO EAGLES!!!!!!

Re: Good morning Post and sports update
 

Good morning everyone and as always, the joe is brewin'. Yesterday, it was a great day at the office. The majority of us there are retired military which equates to everyone is from different parts of the US originally. There are only two of us out of 18 that are Eagles fans and all the local Giants fans finally admitted it that the cream raised to the top. Now I can hardly wait till next Sunday as our Director is a Cardinals fan and he said that they would have rather played the Giants as well. Anyway, I hope everyone has a terrific Tuesday and gets to enjoy a favorite if the time permits it....... :tu

Re: Good morning Post and sports update
 

Good morning everyone and yes, the coffee is on. It's "Hump Day" and I hope it flys by and brings on the weekend.

I hope all of you have a great day and enjoy it as well....... :)

Re: Good morning Post and sports update
 

Good morning all and as always, the coffee is on. I just checked the local weather and it's 1° F, man it's cool out there. Later on after it warms up a bit, I have some running around to do in preperation of tomorrow's Eagles / Cardinals football game. Then later on I'll be heading over to Schlesinger's / Hudson Valley Cigars to enjoy a favorite or two and see how the local S/BOTL are doing. I hope everyone has a great weekend and gets to enjoy a few favorites as well....... :D

GO EAGLES!!!!!!

Good morning all and yes, today is the NFC Championship game at 1500 (3pm) between the Eagles and the Cardinals and then the AFC Championship game between the Steelers and the Ravens at 1830 (6:30pm). Both games should be very intense and I'm hoping both Pennsylvania teams win to make one helava Superbowl in two weeks. I just finished a pot of Mr. Jerry's Electric Chair Espresso Killer Beans and I'm ready for the games. I hope veryone has a super day and GO EAGLES....... :D

Re: Good morning Post and sports update
 

Good morning all and as always, the coffee is on. Well, today is the big day that President-Elect Obama takes the oath of office. We'll have the Emergency Operation Center activated just as a precaution in case some wacko or group of wackos try something in D.C. or other parts of the US on this day of history. Only time will tell what this new regime will bring and if in deed that they can turn our economy around. Anyway, I hope everyone has a great day and enjoys....... :pi

Re: Good morning Post and sports update
 

Good morning everyone, the joe is brewin' and it looks like bagels are on this morning's breakfast menu. From yesterday's inauguration ceremony to the parades amd then finishing up with all the Balls, America has made history. We will now see what happens and in fact if we do have change. I just hope it's not a change for the worst. Anyway, I hope all of you have a "Happy HumpDay" and enjoy a favorite cigar if you get the chance....... :cb

Re: Good morning Post and sports update
 

Good morning all, the coffee is on and a ig TGIF!!!! We had a great time last night at Schlesinger's Cigar Bar / Hudson Valley Cigars with a packed crowd of the Thursday night crowd and few ole' faces I haven't seen in a while. We took care of some business as far as the upcoming Quad State Herf IV and we definitely have a Standby List now. I will do my best in letting all that want to attend be a part of this great "Cause" but I want to ensure that there is still room for all to enjoy and be comfortable. As far as this weekends big sporting event, I'll be watching the Rolex 24 At Daytona which starts Saturday at 1530 (3:30pm). It's the unofficial kick off for the racing season and for all you motor heads out there, here is the link for your convenience:

Anyway, I hope you have a great weekend and you get to enjoy a favorite or two or........ :D

Re: Good morning Post and sports update
 

Good morning all as I've been up since 0430 (4:30am) checkin' emails, replying to PMs and making the morning coffee. I try my darndest to be quiet in the morning but that ole' coffee grinder seems like the loudest thing in the neighborhood :D. Well, we are exactly two weeks away from the Quad State Herf IV and there are still a few of you out there that I haven't heard from since you signed up. If your name is on the list and you can not attend, let me know so the ones on the Standby List can be moved over to the Guest List. Anyway, I hope everyone has a super Saturday and takes the time to enjoy a favorite stogie today....... :pi

Re: Good morning Post and sports update
 

Good morning all and yes, the coffee is on. Had a good day yesterday hanging out with the fellas at Schlesingers / Hudson Valley Cigars and then coming home to enjoy a great meal with Beth and relaxing on the sofa watching the Rolex 24 from Daytona race track. They televised it from 1500 (3pm) till 2200 (10pm) and then it will be back this morning from 0700 (7am) till 1600 (4pm). Here is a link to give you more info about the race if interested:

I hope everyone has a great day and enjoys it as well....... :salute:

Re: Good morning Post and sports update
 

Good morning all and yes, the joe is brewin'. Yesterday's Rolex 24 had the closest finish in the history of 47th anniversary of the race with the #58 Brumos Racing Porsche Riley team winning. Congrats to the drivers David Donohue, Darren Law, Buddy Rice and Antonio Garcia. For more info, click here:

Anyway, I hope everyone has a great week and enjoys. Remember, if you're attending the Quad State Herf IV and you haven't sent in your donation as of yet, they are due by this Saturday the 31st........ :)

Re: Good morning Post and sports update
 

Good morning all, the coffee has been on since 0400 (4am) and I'm ready for some good Army chow. The weather guessers are calling for a good storm to hit some time tonight as it's making its way across the US right now. Here is a link to www.noaa.gov to give you a better idea:

http://www.goes.noaa.gov/ECIR4.html

They are calling for a mixture of snow, frozen rain and sleet. Makes for a tough ride into work and even worse for the kiddies on school buses and the ones that walk. I hope everyone in it's path is prepared for it and be careful out there. Enjoy the day and I'll talk with you all later on....... :cool2:

Re: Good morning Post and sports update
 

Good morning all and as always, the coffee is on. Well, the weather guessers were correct this time and we have a nice storm presently hittin' us. We had an Adverse Weather Condition Conference Call this morning at 0400 and have come to an agreement that West Point will be closed "Code Red" all day. Here is the link for the West Point site that will give you the exact explanation wat a Code Red is:

http://www.westpoint.edu/WeatherCond...SnowPolicy.htm

USMA Snow Policy (Non-emergency positions)

"WEST POINT IS CODE RED." Only employees in emergency positions should report to work. Employees in non-emergency positions should not report to work until their next regularly scheduled workday.

This is very good as I have some administrative stuff to get done for the upcoming Quad State Herf on the 7th and I might as well get it done today. I hope everyone has a happy "Hump Day" and enjoys........ :D
