    Sean Avery's feelings toward Boudreau.

    So did I at first. Maybe Avery made the same mistake.

    The person below me game...

    I have no kids, but I recall my parents eating everything we didn't like. As long as you're not one of those Hallow-scrooges who "let the children eat one little piece per day and then 'throw out' the rest because it's not healthy" to teach them good eating habits, but you're actually scarfing it down yourself, I say it's ok to pilfer a bit here and there. The person below me hid their candy from their parents.

    This or That

    I need a cooler. Warmers are nice, but I don't need food; I need alcohol. j/k- I prefer warmer weather. Paint or wallpaper?

    Sean Avery's feelings toward Boudreau.

    Speaking as a fat person, I have to inform Avery that pointing out to a fat person that he/she is fat is not news. It is not good agitating. They've been hearing it all of their lives. If he thinks that Boudreau is going to mess up as a coach because someone called him fat, he is not as good as we think he is. That sort of insult only works people who are not really, really fat like Brodeur... or maybe the Olson twins.

    10/31 GDT: Red Wings 3 at Flames 1

    Working tonight, so will have to find out in the morning via the GDT. Don't anyone tell the Wings that this is the night that we set the clocks back. If they don't reset their clocks, they might show up at the same time as their opponents and stop treating the first period as the warmup. But for tonight... Flames score 4 in the first. Wings score 1 in the second. The Flames get 3 consecutive PPs. Score at the end of the 2nd: 7-1. Wings win 9-8 in OT.

    This or That

    Whichever is cheaper. If they're free, I'll go with the latter. Elastic or drawstring holding up your sweatpants?

    No, but if I remember correctly, she had problems with her box... The person below me thinks that people who hand out healthy food for Halloween should be force-fed cotton candy.

    50 in 50

    I thought it was asking if we'd play a full 50 minutes in any of the first 50 games. Yeah, I know the games have 60 minutes, but it seems no one has told the Wings that. As for the real question: If anyone can do it, Ovie can, but I'd wait until he was over 40 before I started the countdown. Anything can happen. All it takes is an injury, even a minor one, or just hitting a cold streak. Happens to everyone.

    If your crystal ball is working properly

    I've been a Lions fan for 43 years. Dad always said it builds character. Remember the Lions' mottos: (Beginning of the season) WE'RE NOT MATHEMATICALLY ELIMINATED YET! (End of the season) THERE'S ALWAYS NEXT YEAR! Would I still watch the Wings? Heck yes!

    Hasek Injured, Likely Out For Olympics

    And I thought we'd agree on something when pigs fly... Oh, wait- the swine flew. Too bad about Dom. He's Czech hero. Even if he didn't start, the younglings would have benefited from having him there.

    Hand out treats until I go to work. The person below me is going to dress up for Halloween.

    This or That

    Water balloon. The bed's gonna be wet either way; might as well be something I can just let air-dry. Chicken-in-a-biscuit or club crackers?

    Swine flu hits the NHL.

    Budaj got it from Miss Piggy. No one was supposed to find out, but someone squealed. Hope he gets better. Scary in kids, old folks, and people with existing medical conditions that weaken them, but he's a healthy adult. He should be fine. Talk about media hyping this- our local rag ran a headline in big letters "H1N1 Vaccines Frozen en Route to Hospital!!!" (or something like that) and then in little letters "still safe and effective".

    favourite player growing up...

    I had an insane crush on Jeff Chadwick. In fact, I had hamsters named Jeff and Barry, but Barry turned out to be a girl, so she was re-named Berry and placed in a separate cage. Never followed baseball or basketball. Art Baggotti
