  1. Cherish them while you can. I, unfortunately, cannot. Miss them every day. As far as a funeral, I told my hubby just cremate me, scatter the ashes, and go have a drink. No one else is going to care I'm gone, so why fake that you do. And as far as family fighting at the funeral, I've had families fight at the viewing. Like vultures circling the carcass. They did that when my hubby's grandmother passed away. Came into the house, "Where is this? Where is that? Who took my (fill in the blank)?" Grandfather told them, "I paid for the funeral. Everything in the house is mine. Keep your damned hands off stuff." So it's heresy I hate Zeppelin. Well, I'm proud to be a heretic if that's the case. And I hate Aerosmith too. So there.
  2. I don't dislike cats, but I love dogs more. I'm sure this will tick off some people. Whoever told Robert Plant that he could sing was tone deaf. He can't carry a tune in a 15-ton gravel truck. That band should have just played the music and not let anyone sing. The minute he opens his mouth to sing, he ruins the song. I don't care what song it is, he ruins it when he opens his mouth. It's the reason I hate Led Zeppelin with a purple passion.

    2015 Round 1 Photoshop War: Tampa Bay Lightning

    There was a replay of the game. You just had to sit through the last part of the game. It started about 12:55. I waited. I had to...my DVR dumped games 2,3 and 4. If I can't get a replay of them, I am screwed.

    I like the Black Knight. Very clever.

    Babs in drag is something that makes nightmares exist.

    I must admit, this is pretty funny.

    My favorite time to read this board. It's usually so clever. As far as Stevie goes, he put himself into target range the day he became GM. No mercy given here...all bets are off. Fire away!

    Going To My First Wings Game - Suggestions?

    I'll second (or third) Slow's for BBQ, but they are right about getting there early in the day...I have friends who had to wait for a table because it was so packed and if I remember right they don't do reservations. Hockeytown isn't bad but it's definitely crowded after a game. I can't do Greektown - the noise and the crowds get to me, and even though they say no smoking, it's just awful there. I almost have to hold my breath walking through to get to the People Mover. Hockeytown Authentics is always cool. I'm due for a visit there one of these days...it's been a while. But whatever you do, have fun!

    Larionov on NHL/AHL stifling creative play.

    He's a hell of a lot smarter when it comes to this stuff than I am, so I won't try to dissect what he said. All I know is, when Pasha's gone it's gonna be a while before you see someone like him again. We should count our blessings.
  10. I didn't watch them either. I could care less. I haven't seen many movies that I really want to see lately. I love the Coen Brothers movies, though.
  11. You aren't alone on that one, Loo. I never got the point of that one. It's like "Big Bang Theory". I find nothing funny about it. I think it's stupid.

    Next Number to be retired

    I hope it's 13. When the time comes.
  13. Wings_Dynasty, you might not need a truck, but where I am it's almost mandatory. And 4WD is a must as well. Though I agree with the rest of what you say. Besides, we do a lot of traveling, and need something stronger to pull a camper. Am I the only one who does not give a rat's rear end about all this "50 Shades of Grey" horse crap? Never read the book, won't see the movie. It's like "American Sniper". I live every day with a PTSD sufferer. I don't need to see it.
  14. I've never set foot in an Applebee's and I probably won't. TGIF is okay, depending on what you get. I also won't set foot in an Olive Garden. I love Popeye's chicken over KFC.
  15. I did not watch one minute of the game last Sunday. I watched the Puppy Bowl instead. Lots more fun.

    Happy Holidays To All My Fellow LGW'rs!

    I hope you all had a great and safe holiday season. Now on to the rest of the year.

    Name That Band

    I'd say Spin Doctors, but I'd probably be way off the mark.

    2014 Prospects Tournament and Training Camp (Sept. 12-23)

    Have fun whichever one you go to. But don't take someone with you who is handicapped. Why, you ask? Because they will put you in the most remote part of the arena, where you will have limited visibility, you'll get jostled around and bumped into in the halls, no respect at all, and treated like a second class person. This comes from personal experience.

    Datsyuk or Fedorov?

    Say what you will, but there is an intangible here. It's called attitude. One has an attitude that is a little hard to work with. One has an attitude that you love to see. I'll let you figure out which is which. Some might think that means next to nothing, but you'd be surprised. HHOF? One, maybe. One, I should think so. Again, I'll let you figure out which is which.

    The person below me game...

    Oh very true. I supposedly have a brother-in-law named Sam. One of Terry's half brothers on his dad's side. First of all, you have to understand that his dad was married four times, and so was his mom. Okay, so that established... I've been married to the boss for almost 37 years. In all that time, I have never seen this person or talked to him. He could come up to me on the street and I would not know him from Joe Blow. I call him "vaporware". You know what that is...stuff that is supposed to exist, but doesn't. That's Sam. TPBM uses their smart phone more than their computer because it's more reliable.

    Who is YOUR most under-appreciated/unsung Red Wing?

    Oh boy, I'd have to say Homer too, but Drew Miller runs close in the race too.
  22. 1)To those who hate "Big Bang Theory" and "Seinfeld", I'm right there with you. 2) I would rather watch Free Speech TV than any of the other "news" channels. Of course, I don't watch all that much tv. 3) Went camping about a month ago. The people in the camp site next to us needed a lesson in dressing. I spent the whole weekend next to people who let their butt cracks/underwear show. Please dress properly - I'm not interested in having my appetite desert me because I see your ass crack when you bend over. To make it worse, they thought they could yell and scream at 1AM. Sorry, but some of us prefer sleep at that time of night. I don't care if it's a holiday weekend. Quiet hours start at 10 PM.

    Dan Cleary may return...sigh

    Put him on the scouting staff. Then do us all a favor and send him to Siberia. Please.
  24. Because my house isn't big enough for a war zone.
