Congratulations on both occasions.

It depends on who it is, what it is, and how much explaining is needed. My preferred communication methods are (in order): text, e-mail, IM, phone, in person. Orange or pink?

No sickies in my family, thank goodness. The person below me has Easter candy in the house.

Turkey. I've never been all that fond of ham. Plain cheesecake or with berries?

Secretly? Nope. Agreed? You betcha. The person below me thinks spammers and people who start viruses should have their nads removed one cubic centimeter at a time.

Oh, my. I just realized that I made a huge error. I thought I was doing the same thing as I had done last year, but last year it was $1 per goal, not $5. Well, I do try to keep my word, but I just kind of screwed myself. If I stick with what I said, I may not be able to pay up. So I'm going to stick with what I said, but I'm putting a cap on it: Only one goal per player per series. This caps me at $240 maximum. It's a bit much for me, but that's what makes it exciting. And this time I really mean it. I especially apologize to Sandy and rrasco who set their pledges according to mine. Sorry. I'll edit my OP.

Might as well choose goody-goody. The money thing isn't working out. Egg salad or deviled eggs?

I can't think of anything offhand. The person below me currently owns at least one VHS tape.

I'm going with the hamster pledge again, only this year I have a new hamster. Therefore, I pledge $5 for every goal scored by: Zetterberg, Datsyuk, Holmstrom, Lidstrom Kronwall, Cleary Franzen, Filppula, Ericsson Miller, Eaves (IR), White, Bertuzzi I will keep track in my sig line. Thanks for doing this again! HUGE EDIT: Oh, my. I just realized that I made a huge error. I thought I was doing the same thing as I had done last year, but last year it was $1 per goal, not $5.

Sure. Give us the penalty. For how many tenths of a second?

One point made no difference; they needed 2.

Gosh, that Homer guy sure is good by the net, eh?

I do believe so. He's got a SHUTfreakinOUT going. How long has it been since the Wings were down 2-0 after 2 periods and came back to win? Gee... I sure wish I had a long-term memory.

I'm easily amused. Sheahan has promise. That's for sure. Not here yet, but he's doing pretty darn well for a try-out (which is essentially what he is today).

I regret that I have used up my quota of plusses for the day.

Whee! I'm excited! Let's Go Red Wings!

They're locked. Today they're just playing to get the other team fined over sound bites.

I'm hoping that we win by a very close margin. One would be nice. Two would be ok if one is an ENG. I don't want us to dominate and outscore them by a lot. It seems like if we completely schmuck someone, we fall into a mindset of laziness and get out butts kicked the next game. So... GO WINGS, but only by a little.

Washer. Much easier to live hanging out clothes than washing them in the tub. Been there, done that on both counts. Snorkel or Scuba dive?

Tomorrow. I get off work at 7 am and will be at Mom's around 9. Sis and I will do eggs before church. Then they'll go to church and I'll go to bed since I'm terribly allergic to Easter lilies. The person below me has already eaten something from the Easter Candy food group.

Go Wings! Thanks Mike for all the GDT's you've done. Hopefully you'll have four more rounds' worth before the season ends. BOOGA!

Ok, I admit the first time I saw it, I missed it too until I know where I was supposed to be looking. It is entirely possible that the refs thought to themselves, "Did he just... nah, couldn't be. The other guy would have called something that stupid. They'd think I was crazy if I suggested he did something like that." I want to know what was going on in Clowe's head. Is he playing today? Or is he in the quiet room until he recovers from his amnesia?

I think of the Statue of Liberty first, but I really can't choose a favourite. Good times.
