No computer access at work. I come here when I'm looking for updates on the team, commentary on the team and league in general, and for some companionship. The person below me recently held a tiny baby.

Nope. Not at any speed. The person below me enjoys reading/watching mysteries.

Sometimes out under the stars. The person below me has read A Tale of Two Cities.

You'll forgive me for smiling. UND needed these wins.

Over? I have too much to do! I've got Salvation Army bells to ring, a Children's Service to get going, presents to get and wrap, cards to write, food to prepare, and then I've got to get my hamster and me packed to go to mama's. The person below me is ready for the Christmas ads to be over.

I usually do it in batches since my trees fall much earlier than my neighbour's, but it's not always possible. Green or orange?

Wings: 5 (Tatar, Miller, Kronwall, Alfie, Mule) Panthers: 3 (Kopecky, Koko, Kokopuffs) Here Kitty, Kitty, Kitty...

Can't think of anyone offhand. The person below me knits, tats, embroiders, crochets, or does needlepoint. (BTW, Loo- everything in my Christmas letter has already been discussed with you in detail cuz you know all the important stuff in my life!)

I don't drink either, but for the sake of this exercise, let's assume cocoa is a worthy replacement. I will use a traditional cup. Use your full, given first name or a nickname/shortened version? (i.e. Steven or Steve, Isabella or Bella, etc.)

Right, Mike. Whatever you say. So, according to Mike's logic, Crosby should be on his way to the KHL. I'll believe that when I see it, thanks.

I can live with a strain or sprain. At least it's nothing permanent. Has anyone wondered if the next two players to be injured once Z returns will hurt their knees and toes? The injury report would read: Pavel (head) Helm and DeKeyser (shoulders) Player X (knees and toes) Player Y (knees and toes)...

Generally cards, although dominoes can be fun on occasion. Actually, now that I think about it, since I live alone, the cards would be more fun since there are many more types of solitaire that involve cards. Keep the same avatar or change it?

Not the federal ones... nor any other. The person below me would leap at the chance to read the two-page Christmas letter which I have just written to bore my relatives and long-lost friends with whom I communicate only at Christmas.

Nice GDT, Paul. Especially like the octopus part. Wings win 4-3. Miller, Frazen, Nyquist, Alfie for the Wings. My baby Brunner with the hat trick. Because that's how it goes with former players.

You have no idea how much posts like this make me smile. Facts, stats, and solid discussion based on them. I hoped Commie would succeed here. When he didn't, I was glad he got a chance in Tampa. We had to bring up Smith for a look-see. We're like that with out future players that are ripening. If you get hired as a 7th defenseman, and you don't play yourself into a higher position, you're going to end up with 7th defenseman games and minutes.

Possibly. I do usually get a Wings calendar, but I'm not sure where it is purchased. The person below me has flowers in their yard (although not necessarily at this moment).

Dial up is not the end of the world. I had it for years. Headache or stomach ache?

Hm..... Assuming I have both available, I think I'll go with the grilled cheese. Same days off every week or varied schedule?

Only if I concentrate. Yeah, there's a difference. The person below me has taken physics.

Awesome beer! Going to cringe, but I'm sure our boys will give it their all.

Since I don't have a patio, it would have to be at someone else's house. This means that I'd have wet clothing. On the other hand, steps could cause more injury. Tough call. I'll go with the patio if it's a good friend. When the directions give a range of cooking time (say 15-18 minutes): Shorter time, longer time, or somewhere in the middle?

Only to pick up lunch tickets. I was not very smart in school as far as book-learning went, but I was smart in the stay-out-of-trouble kind of way. The person below me has hired help around their home.

Alfie had the A once Pavel went down. The other A will probably go to another veteran player. I'm honestly thinking Cleary. He was brought back for his "veteran leadership and work ethic". That's what someone wears a letter to do. It would make the most use of his strengths (or- for you who don't like him- let him do something worthwhile to account for being the sum total of all the evil in the hockey world not named Crosby sucked into the vortex of ill that is Cleary and his contract). It would also be a nice tribute to him for all that he has given to the team over the years. Hopefully Z or Pavel will return soon and it will be temporary. You meant to make cowen a possessive, right?

He has a golden retriever! Can he get any more perfect? I like him.

As long as it's cooked, it's good. If I'm dining out, I'll go ribeye. If you knew you could get away with it: Commit a murder or rob a bank?
