    Shana-ban Bans himself

    I liked it. Of course, that clip always makes me laugh.

    Astro. How your wrapped presents end up: "Perfectly wrapped" or "paper pretty much covering it and lots of tape"?

    I'm not much or a goer. The person below me eats peanut butter by the spoonful.

    What kinda Shanaban is warranted?

    That's how it is with those types. You hate them when they're on the ice, but off the ice, they're just big teddy bears who visit sick children and animals. Their fellows love them and they are fan favourites. It's a tough and dirty job that they do, and they live in fear of being demoted for a more well-rounded referee, but it's at moments like this that they shine and provide us with the entertainment we all come to see.

    Good game, good game, good game...

    Aw, that is so cute. They need to get scolded and told that this sort of thing should not happen after the whistles. Then they need to be watched to see if they get any sort of high-end talent that we can draft. Good to see the little guys standing up for themselves. People just don't do that any more.

    Well, hope Fleury is enjoying his shutout. Oops, didn't mean to jinx him or anything.

    Called in sick today. Go Wings. Kick some butt! No, wait. With the Pens, butts are considered head shots. Ok then, Go Wings! Score lots of goals!

    I honestly don't want his career cut short. We'll never hear the end of the Tragic Saga of the Superstar He Could Have Been. I'd rather he got well, captained his team, and did whatever else he can, but grew up into a man that the league can be proud to have as its face. The person below me changes undies more than once a day.

    If I have to choose, I'd rather be on the eating end. Fruits or nuts?

    Oh, they have one in Findlay (Ohio) that says you can't make left turns during a certain time. My cousin got pulled over once when he was going home from work after working a different shift. No one else in the family had even seen the sign before, but they're never there during rush hour. I was thinking that it meant that you only had so much time to make your turn or else you had to go straight, and I was wondering why on earth they didn't have turn lanes or how you'd find yourself to the right street. Thanks for the explanation. Odd, but the street Dad used to live on is only one block long! It connects two big streets and kind of goes at a weird angle, but it's in keeping with the other streets around it. It's like they had a whole bunch of streets going one direction, and another bunch going a different direction, and then decided to connect them with little streets.

    Seriously want to call in sick for this, but probably won't. At any rate... GO WINGS!!!

    Not that I recall. I do it a lot with my own money. The person below me thinks I should call in sick, watch Storage Wars until the game, finish my Christmas cards and drink lots of whiskey instead of being a good, responsible employee.

    I give it a chance, but my opinion is pretty well pre-formed. Cooler sounding word: Phlox or sphinx?

    I asked my aunt for the address she lived at when my dad was born. She was 16 when he was born and they moved when he was 7, and she's the only one left out of the family. She told me the address and I looked it up on mapquest. I'm not familiar with Detroit, so in order to give me some sort of idea where it was, I asked mapquest for directions to the JLA. It's not far at all, from what I could tell, but one thing confused me. They made mention of a "Timed turn restriction" from 7 am to 7 pm every day when you turn from Joy Road to Grand River Av. What is a timed turn restriction?

    Dodge Ram Red Wings Edition

    I had a Ram once. Good truck, although I'm a Ford gal. If I were going to get rid of Stevie (my F-150), and if I had the cash, I'd sure go for it.

    Official Detroit Lions thread

    I just about did. I couldn't breathe. We got away with a facemask there at the end, but from what I heard, there were a couple of calls that should have gone against the Vikes that didn't get called, so we're even. I fell asleep at halftime and missed the 3rd quarter. The downside of working graveyards, I guess.

    I usually use it for Christmas shopping, but this year I'm done with the shopping, so I'll pay a bill. Pass or rush?
