Today is Sunday, Nov. 17, the 321st day of 2019. There are 44 days left in the year.
Today’s Highlight in History:
On Nov. 17, 1800, Congress held its first session in the partially completed U.S. Capitol building.
On this date:
In 1558, Elizabeth I acceded to the English throne upon the death of her half-sister, Queen Mary, beginning a 44-year reign.
In 1869, the Suez Canal opened in Egypt.
In 1889, the Union Pacific Railroad Co. began direct, daily railroad service between Chicago and Portland, Oregon, as well as Chicago and San Francisco.
In 1911, the African-American fraternity Omega Psi Phi was founded at Howard University in Washington, D.C.
In 1947, President Harry S. Truman, in an address to a special session of Congress, called for emergency aid to Austria, Italy and France. (The aid was approved the following month.)
In 1970, the Soviet Union landed an unmanned, remote-controlled vehicle on the moon, the Lunokhod 1.
In 1973, President Richard Nixon told Associated Press managing editors in Orlando, Florida: “People have got to know whether or not their president is a crook. Well, I’m not a crook.”
In 1979, Iran’s Ayatollah Khomeini (ah-yah-TOH’-lah hoh-MAY’-nee) ordered the release of 13 black and/or female American hostages being held at the U.S. Embassy in Tehran.
In 1997, 62 people, most of them foreign tourists, were killed when militants opened fire at the Temple of Hatshepsut (haht-shehp-SOOT’) in Luxor, Egypt; the attackers were killed by police.
In 2002, Abba Eban (AH’-bah EE’-ban), the statesman who helped persuade the world to approve creation of Israel and dominated Israeli diplomacy for decades, died near Tel Aviv; he was 87.
In 2003, Arnold Schwarzenegger was sworn in as the 38th governor of California.
In 2006, former “Seinfeld” star Michael Richards unleashed a barrage of racial epithets during a stand-up routine at the Laugh Factory in West Hollywood.

Ten years ago: President Barack Obama held formal, closed-door talks in Beijing with Chinese President Hu Jintao (hoo jin-tow). Sarah Palin’s autobiography “Going Rogue” was released; 1 million copies sold in less than two weeks.
Five years ago: Pope Francis confirmed that he would be attending the World Meeting of Families in Philadelphia in Sept. 2015. Dr. Martin Salia, a surgeon who’d contracted Ebola in his native Sierra Leone, died at the University of Nebraska Medical Center in Omaha, two days after being admitted. Jimmy Ruffin, 78, the Motown singer whose hits included “What Becomes of the Brokenhearted,” died in Las Vegas.
One year ago: Tribesman on the isolated island of North Sentinel, between India and Southeast Asia, were seen dragging and burying the body of American missionary John Allen Chau, who had reached the island the previous day despite a ban imposed by India’s government. Argentina’s navy announced that searchers had found a submarine that disappeared a year earlier with 44 crewmen aboard; the government said it would be unable to recover the vessel. President Donald Trump acknowledged Californians suffering from twin tragedies, walking through the ashes of a mobile home park in a small northern town virtually destroyed by a wildfire and consoling people grieving after a mass shooting at a bar outside Los Angeles. Democrat Andrew Gillum, Florida’s first black nominee for governor, conceded defeat and congratulated Republican Ron DeSantis; Gillum trailed DeSantis by more than 30,000 votes following a machine recount.

Wow I'm not sure if there is even 325 sober people between all of the groups in Western New York. None of the younger people I think are not picking up the torch.

we always have a good turn out. cheap and plentiful food brings out the 'drunks' and they still bitch about having to pay $3. those who show up claiming they can't afford it we let in free. we have a fairly active committee but it's usually the same few volunteers doing the work.

That must have some age on it. That's the old band. That cigar is one of the best Connecticut's. Do you remember the short run Connecticut? I think it was 2014? I think that is what the new wave was modeled after but EPC said he would not recreate the short runs is what I was told.

Hey Dave. Aside from the Champagne. Have you tried any of the vintage Connecticut's from Perdomo? I want to revisit them but I noticed they are a bit more than my usual go to's. Even the lot 23 and the habano series Connecticut are a few bucks more

Still enjoy the Perdomo's but you're right, they are a bit pricier than other good Connies.

When you're in a conference, you play the teams....have no control over how good or bad they are. Also have two SEC teams on the schedule...didn't think A&M would be the, and Carolina sucks...well, they always suck, but to be this bad...

We have eight games before you. A prudent man would wait until then to offer a wager. For now let's say either Lirio Rojo or Victor Sinclair. ;D
