    The person below me game...

    Oh, goodness, yes. I'm barely able to rock, and if I roll I need help getting up. The person below me has been to Cleveland.

    A friend of mine from college was 20 years old. His father was 95; his mom was 40. When they asked his dad why he hadn't married earlier (he was married at age 74) he would tell people that his wife hadn't been born yet. They also had a daughter who was 10 at that time. There's an answer for grandma.

    Need a little Abdelkader help please

    'Tis true, 'tis true. I wasted my money on a Kronwall, whilst my dear old Dad (may he rest in peace) invested in a Lang. Should have listened to Dad like a good girl and gotten myself a Cleary like he said. That one will never be obsolete.

    Kane case headed to grand jury

    I would think a settlement is likely. If he's not guilty, she's going to take the settlement and run. If he's guilty, she may well rather end it with something than face a jury and have to recount the most horrific thing that's ever happened to her, knowing that in such a high-profile case people will be glued to every word. If I were in her shoes (assuming he's guilty), I'd take the money. Justice would not be served, but if you find yourself in that situation, sometimes your own peace comes before the greater good. At least he's been exposed and other women will be warned.

    Not me personally, but I did have surgery that required the doctor to shave off part of my eyebrow. It was a long time ago. I still have the scar, but I "trained" the eyebrow hair to grow over it by using a makeup brush. The person below me is ready to die when their natural time comes.

    Stadium series Wings vs Avs 2016!

    I've seen a couple of articles where they talk about some of the players, but what I've managed to find in a search today is not as good. They are definitely talking about having it be alumni from the Rivalry Years. Confirmed are: Good guys: Shanny, Lidstrom, Larionov, Cheli, Bad guys: Roy, Blake, Forsberg, Sakic Links for that info: http://detroitsportsnation.com/detroit-nhl/nwebb/red-wings-stadium-series-game-to-feature-rivalry-era-alumni-game-with-avalanche/41532/ http://www.nhl.com/ice/news.htm?id=776309 I'm quite sure I saw others but can't find them now. At any rate, this is a good start.

    Stadium series Wings vs Avs 2016!

    Since the alumni game is stocked with players from the rivalry days, the uniforms should also reflect that history. Like maybe a picture of the Statue of Liberty holding a turtle.

    KILLER!!! That's so much more fun than just saying "weed killer". Manitoba or Saskatchewan?

    Thought for the day: The person who thinks that the glass is half empty may not be a pessimist. They may see the empty space as potential.
  15. Satire sites should be labeled as such, just for the complete idiots out there who believe everything they read and have to comment on it. Also, the people who photoshop pictures of someone to make it look like they have been in an accident or have a horrible medical condition and then post them and ask people to pray for them or share because facebook will donate a dollar should be forced to live with in that medical state until they realize that it isn't funny.

    This or That

    For the size of my lawn manual. I got an electric one last year because it's so much lighter and I couldn't bend down to get the gas one started. My neighbour two lots down has a rider. They mow theirs and the one next to them (her sister) and the empty lot between us. They also swing well into my lawn so I have very little to mow. Live catch or kill 'em dead mousetraps?

    The person below me game...

    Yes. Let's hope that Green can bring some much-needed offense to our blue line. We've got defensive types to pair him with. As long as they can get in a groove and know who has what responsibilities when he goes offensive, it should be great. Kind of like back when Kronwall could join in because Stuart had his back. The person below me is not wearing pants.

    Official Detroit Lions thread

    Looks like the Vikes are headed for the same kicker issues we had last year. Glad we got that taken care of last year so we don't have to deal with it again this year.

    Now that I think of it, when I was growing up there was a lady at church named LouVay. It was a highly Scandinavian community. This is all starting to make sense now.

    If Love gets teased, he's only a year younger than Douglas Kronwall. He can just have his bigger buddy Kronwall the bullies against their lockers.

    Sauce, but not too hot or spicy. I'm a weak-tongued woman. Eat those last 5 bites and be stuffed or throw them out and be wasteful?

    Las Vegas rumored to get an expansion team

    They have no guys in Detroit either? That sucks, but I doubt that guys are what the majority are looking for.

    Always do. The person below me likes Danny D's hair better long than it is now.

    Franzen's Gift to Nyquist

    Ok, boys. Keep the shifts short, and don't get caught with too many men. If anyone goes to the box, he needs to be ready to shoot as soon as he gets out. Defend your end at all times. Scoring is important, but you can't score unless you make a play first. No clutching and grabbing, just shoot all over their end. Hurry up and get here, October.

    Stadium series Wings vs Avs 2016!

    It looks like a school guard put on his sash and pinned his wing on backward.
