    When and if the insurance company gets back to the doctor, I hope to. The person below me is doing something to celebrate Thanksgiving.

    I'm partial to Ozzie. Chicken or turkey?

    Another solid reason to hate on Cindy Crosby

    Whatever it takes to get dates, Sid. EDIT: Just realized that this is WAY more serious than any of us thought. Have his doctors been notified that his concussion symptoms may not have abated as much as they thought?

    Smooth. On either. Mac, Malts, or Drapes?

    I'm a little leery of the whole "break you up into molecules and put you back together" thing. Light speed is good enough for me. The person below me hates seeing blood. Whoopsie-doopsie! Dawn snuck in there! Ok, then, yes, I've had very, very little sleep. Now... The person below me hates seeing blood.

    Um... what's far beyond mild? How 'bout "bland"? Better for lounging after dinner: jeans or sweat pants?

    I just go home with a hockey player. In my dreams.

    Yeah. This sucks. The person below me remembers when the communicators on the old Star Trek looked so cool and futuristic.

    I can't get them to print on my new printer. They jam. Old school it is. On your mashed taters: Butter, gravy, or something else (specify)?

    [Retired] Official Lockout Thread

    Just a question for the accountant-ish, mathy types out there: How many players are effected by this lockout? I was thinking about the 50-50 split. If there are 30 owners (counting Phoenix as being owned as though by one owner, and all other teams with shared ownership interests as being one "owner" entity which will then divide its share amongst the individuals), then what percentage of the total would the 30 each be receiving? Then, given the number of players effected, what percent would be the share of each player, on average? I'm assuming that the Crosbys are getting a much bigger percent than the Quinceys. Now if this adds up to 100 (assuming that 50 plus 50 is indeed 100), where does the league as an entity get its cut? Is it from the owners' shares or is it something that they take off the top before the remainder is split 50-50? We talk about players and owners and percentages, but it's all too big to fit into my head math-wise. I'm not a math person. Any help here would be appreciated.

    Tons of them. You wouldn't believe how many. The person below me has eaten something purple today.

    If only you could see my nuker. It's the one thing I always forget on my cleaning list and it's in a dimly-lit part of the kitchen. Frightening. Vulcans or Klingons?

    I cut the bangs. Every 5-6 years my friend Jenny cuts the braid off and trims the rest. The braid goes to Locks of Love. The person below me makes their pies homemade.

    I'm just going to be sick. Leave it to the Lions... Times like this I wish I didn't have an irrational hate for Rogers. I used to root for the Packers after the Lions. Now it's the Steelers.

    Generally I like to start with a clean slate, but sometimes that is a waste. Elk or antelope?

    I have great respect for the talent they have to do that stuff, but for the most part I'm not into going around and looking at stuff. Now if it's woodworking, then I'm in. The person below me has test-driven a new car.

    Thank you! Finally some actual information amidst the posturing (Fehr and Bettman) and finger-pointing (everyone else).

    In the words or Weird Al, "Money can't buy happiness, so I guess I'll have to rent it." Since I believe that happiness is something you chose despite the soul-leeching hordes of idiots who would enter your life just to mess it up, I would take the money and make my own happiness. Light or dark wood furniture?

    Was. It's over now. I should really celebrate both. Then I'd get turkey two months in a row. The person below me has been doing a lot of typing lately.

    Here's a compromise: How about Bettman and Fehr both take a break- a very long break- and bring in scrubs to do the negotiating?
