In. I'll bring my wrestling figures.

We don't want this level of participation clogging up the main forum.

Shanghai is easily my favourite restaurant in Ottawa. Have a round of lychee martinis!

Lassie is your wife? I just assumed that was your dog's name when your refered to her. Oops. Keeping with the topic, how embarassing (for me).

Shit Hux, you spoiled my retirement dreams.

Back early in house league hockey, probably Novice before there were full-time goalies, I decided I wanted to give goalie a try. My Dad, who was my coach at the time, tried to convince me otherwise ("you'll never learn to skate playing in net, don't you want to score goals like Wayne?") but I was determined to give it a try. So being the sly guy that he is, Dad gave me my shot against the top team in our league. We got absolutely BOMBED 13-6 or something like that, I couldn't stop a thing. And thus my goaltending career ended. In a related story, I went to get my eyes tested and got glasses shortly thereafter. The optometrist had a kid on the aforementioned top team in the league and actually said to me, "Maybe you'll be able to stop some pucks now." GawdDamnedFuckingCocksucker.

Wow, I like that Ladyhawk description. I'm actually more excited about the openers here, the Cons are a bit too much style over substance for me.

Del lived in Sault Ste Marie?

That Low remix is good stuff. I never realized that was Aaron's work.

Have a great one Dave! And knock 'em dead this weekend, wish I could be there.

Same thing happened to me at a Soo Greyhounds game at the ripe ol' age of 8. There was a player signature on the Bauer ad in my program so I got to shoot for a pair of skates. The stick was about 3 feet too long for me and I missed the net by about the same margin. 3000 people laughed. Worst part - my best friend from two doors down got to shoot the next season and he won his folks $100 in Shell gas. 100 bucks in gas was a big deal back then!!

The ring, the cage and a pile of those figures are still somewhere in my parent's house. I figure I'm going to make a pile of money selling them on eBay when the next wrestling resurgence hits!

I don't think I've ever felt thirstier than I did today.

With apologies to New Rider.

Is everyone else as fully enthralled with this Modern Drunkard website as I am? I do believe I found the greatest website ever.

EPIC!!

HUGE 3rd periods by both the Sens and Habs last night. I'm glad I didn't turn off the TV after another poor effort against Boston for 2 periods. I expect that even when Spezza returns, Murray is going to keep the Kelly-Heatley-Alfie line together. They've been on fire in his absence!

They seem to be doing the residency thing at the Grad Club in Kingston too. Jan 27 2007 Feb 3 2007 Feb 10 2007

20 years ago and I remember it like it was yesterday.

Those of us that stuck to the TV through the boring games all day were rewarded with the second half of Dallas - Seattle. That was a crazy finish. I have a feeling NE - NYJ is going to be a shoot-out, with NE coming out on top. I agree with your Philly pick too. They should be good for one win, but you never know which Giants team is going to show up...
