    Video of Wings Curling Event

    So I like curling. Sue me. Aside from Piet and the hot brunette, how many people regularly travel with the Wings?

    No. I have a headache. No bells (cow or otherwise) for me, please. The person below me read this: and wondered why the bread should put much effort in to finding one Dawn really liked.

    Right now I'd prefer snow. It's already rained followed by snow and the result is a sheet of ice under the snow. If it has to fall, I'd rather it was snow until it melts. Bagels or muffins?

    John Keating is lazy and sucks

    What? Oh! You're talking about John Keating. I forgot what we were talking about for a moment. Carry on.

    <sigh> I wish I could curl with the guys.

    I generally go for bigger. Win the lottery or fall in love with your soulmate?

    I do! Especially when they seem like they are cool (like Selli). The person below me has baked bread.

    Red Wings Tough Guy?

    Oh, yes! I have SOOOOOO often wished for a no-skill enforcer playing 4-5 mins a night. Wait a minute! Isn't this about getting someone that with reasonably good skill who can fight as well? Kind of like, oh, say, Helm or Abby or Eaves or Miller or Ericsson except that they could also do more than hold their own in a fight? A GOOD player, but a tough one. A DMac. A Shanny. A Probie. That kind of a guy. Not a time-wasting floater whose only job it is is to goon it up. Someone who can take a shift, and take it well, and THEN punch the lights out of someone when needed. Then take this ONE guy and add him to a roster that contains the likes of Zata, Pavel, Norris Nick, etc. Why, oh why, do people always assume that if you like beef you can't have an assortment of side dishes?

    So I'll eat doritos with it. Grains, dairy, and vegetables in one tasty crunch. Seriously, I've never learned to like it, so I don't miss it at all. Whiskey does me just fine. I've heard stories about Murph back in his playing days. Apparently he could throw them back pretty well. I also think the booze is responsible for that darlingly vacant smile of his. I'd definitely like to throw back a few with him.

    1/1 GDT: 2011 Winter Classic

    Ah, I stand corrected. Thanks. I had heard someone say that and just believed it without researching it. Lesson to me. I think Doc has it right.

    I'm a Murph Woman! (Although I am allergic to hops, so I can't drink beer, but that's ok. I never learned to like it, and that's why we have whiskey.) I guess there's just something special about that number 55.

    Mittens, trash bags, shoes, motor oil, vacuum, yardstick, potting soil... nope. No skeletons. The person below me has stories from their wilder years which they won't share with anyone who wasn't a part of those years. (Yeah, I really do have skelleytons, I'm just not saying.)

    John Keating is lazy and sucks

    Ah, Murph rocks. He has a lot of knowledge of the game and he keeps you on your toes. You can't listen to him with half an ear or you'll end up wishing you had paid attention to what he had just said so you could laugh. Keating reminds me of an old history teacher that thinks you actually want to listen to him. Trevor is awesome. Mick York is the vanilla in a banana split- you'd notice if it wasn't there, but it's overwhelmed by the other flavours. Redmond is lovable and my mom thinks he's handsome. Daniels is very good. Ken Kal is good if you don't have to look at him. He has the voice and face for radio. Paul uh Woods drives me uh nuts. I respect that he uh was a Red uh Wing, but uh he needs to uh get through a sentence without an uh.

    Not really. I got off work early from work due to headache from bumping my head so I got a lot of extra sleep. The person below me likes bran muffins.

    Keating is the most annoying, but mildly so. The others rock. Murph rocks a double shot.

    My hamster is named Johan Andreas Valtteri Jonathan. My great aunt did some family research and my sister got a copy of it. Turns out I have a great-great (don't know how many greats- it was in the 1600s) grandpa named Johan Andreas. Who knew it was a family name?

    1/4 GDT: Red Wings 5 at Oilers 3

    Go Ozzie! I realize that I'm biased, being a huge Ozzie fan, but I am also strong in my feelings that Howard is the Goalie of the Future for this team. Still, I feel it is in the best interest of both the goalies and the team that both start as much as possible (edge to Howard) so that Howard is fresh for the playoffs and Ozzie is ready in case of the unthinkable. Go Wings!!!!! Ozzie with the double hat trick and a Gordie Howe to boot!

    Depends on the veggie. Corn, peas, broccoli etc. I like cooked. Cucumbers, lettuce, celery etc. I like raw. Carrots can go either way. Marshmallows or marshmallow fluff?

    After the New Year's Blizzard, yes I can. The person below me can translate their outdoor temp to F or C (whichever they don't use regularly) without using a chart or other device.

    Unfortunately, it doesn't matter on the ice. Unless they're driving the Zambonis, of course. Wings win. Ten zillion to three. Or something.

    Money. I'll use it for good. I promise. Corn or carrots?
