Bills 14, Lions 12

Someone asked on twobillsdrive.com if the game was available online and a link was provided in response. I clicked on it and found that it was a link to the FBI's Cybercrime Overview page. Is watching a blacked-out NFL game online really cybercrime? It's called a "television blackout" and prevents the game from being broadcast on television within a 75 mile radius of the stadium if the game is not sold out 72 hours prior to kick-off. Someone else provided a link to the FOX broadcast and I watched most of the fourth quarter that way.

I had a Proline ticket which blew up when Detroit scored the late touchdown. Fitting, I suppose that the Bills finally got their win but did not cover the 3 point spread. A sloppy affair it was but Fred Jackson had a big game and the fans went home happy.

Muskoka was beautiful on Saturday. I rode the Johnson Trail then along Clear Creek to Keyhole Lake wearing only cycling shorts and a light long-sleeved shirt and was soaked when I got back. Not a sole around on the lake so far as I could tell. Had a sauna and watched the Leafs and Raptors both lose.

I still can't help thinking that my friend Paul is never going to call me again. He's gone. That's it. It makes me sad. His sister Karen told me that they have found 54 pairs of shoes so far in his house. We wear the same size but I declined the offer to take some. Just can't do that.
