  1. That's the funniest thing I've read all day. I miss Lilja. He inspired posts like this. Plans changed. I get to watch the game. Is it just me, or does this intermission music not really the type that makes me think of hockey.

    Lions and Red Wings on at the same time. Oh, dear. Thank heavens for streams.
  3. Thank you! These are so handy.

    I don't have a hat. Check that: I have a hat, I just never wear it. I also have a hat in my WSK in the truck. The person below me has a winter survival kit in their vehicle.

    Did you miss-speak on point 2? Or am I particularly dense today? If the latter, I apologize.
  7. Rats. I had planned my day around this, and they move it. I will not be able to see it. Go... um, Rangers, I guess.

    OTC. That's what they're there for. You won't get better faster, but you'll feel better, and that's half the battle. Piano or organ?

    Yeah, I get stuffy and watery, especially in the spring and again in the fall when the cottonwoods do their shedding. The person below me has dreamed about another LGW member that they have not actually met.

    Cole suspended three games

    I love the new video explanations. It's good to hear whether it was intentional or not, and what the other player had to say about it, as well as being provided with the reasoning. Even if you disagree, at least you know specifically what it is that you're disagreeing with. I'm cool with this one.

    I should be. I'm getting bits done here and there. The person below me is a libra.

    I don't like them. Fortunately, my mom didn't follow traditions. Did you get a midnight kiss or no?

    If they want to make things so that they are as accurate as possible, they should go the NHL route and review anything that might be a goal (or, in this case, touchdown). This was one of the best games I have seen in a long time. It really could have gone either way. Green Bay is scary good at QB. The Lions seriously need to get their penalties under control. Personal fouls and offsides/encroachment could cost us a game, and at this time of year, one game is all that stands between spending time with your family or spending time with your teammates.

    Nope. No drinking last night. The person below me is watching football.

    Robbed on that TD. Totally robbed. Facemask on. Check. Finger in pocket looking like a gun. Check. Demand made. Check. Money handed over. Check. Clerk hitting the alarm. Nope- clerk hit it twice already. We're home free.

    Forgive me, but my palm seems to be imbedded in my orbital bone. Honda Center. I knew that. Duh.

    That's the thing- what bugs one person has no effect on another. I chew, drive a pickup, love sports, and am a pretty hefty chick. I've been guessed as butch many times. It doesn't bother me a bit. On the other hand, if you mess with my religion, you are messing with my being to the core. Some people are the opposite. Some are bothered by race. Some by things that don't even register with the PC crowd. Weight, height, hair colour or lack thereof... you name it, someone is bothered by it and someone else couldn't care less. I'm not bothered by racial names UNLESS they indicate that the entire race (as opposed to the individual person) is in some way inferior or lesser in value than the person calling the name. I have extremely fair skin. I get razzed, especially in the summer. As long as it's directed at me personally and not all white people (or all Germans or Irish or anything else that I am), it's cool. It's a very fine line.

    There's a certain amount of yapping and trash talking that goes on as a part of the game, but from what I've heard, certain things (such as the players' kids) are off limits. It should go without saying that race/religion/ethnicity should be sacrosanct as well.

    If anyone ever questioned the greatness that is the Perfect Human, they can now be silenced by this: He makes Perry tolerable.

    Ew, gross. Both options have mustard, which is my least favourite thing that I'm not allergic to. Fungal toenails or ingrown toenails?
