It was really cold out and she was warm and smelled like cherries, hairspray and lipstick. Mmm, I hope I smelled that good.

First, the HR lady gave me bad directions. Second, she looks at my resume and says, “Oh my, we have an opening for a junior person and I can see from your resume that you are qualified for a senior position”. They did have a senior position that was opening up in a few weeks though, apparently one of their admins was…

I thought he missed the shoulder check and decided to throw out his elbow to “finish the check”. It sure looked like a deliberate elbow to the head to me. First, Kucherov’s helmet immediately flies off so it was obviously a very high hit. Second, you can see his arm sweeping through the air after he hits Kucherov so…

Here’s the scene; my first date after almost ten years of marriage. I’m nervously leaving the young lady’s apartment when she realizes she has locked herself out. She decides that we had better take care of this right now before it gets too late. Her super isn’t around but she knows an easy way to break into her…

Just added to the long list of “Things Canadians Can’t Do” at number 9,956; Insult someone.

Correction: No one likes the Canucks. The best we can hope for in a series involving Vancouver is that their fans get angry and set each other’s cars on fire.

Well, some of my friends were and the blimp stalled right over us. It was quite worrisome.

Probably a better idea than having a giant inflated pig fly over audience.

Coors was invented for sloshing away a good burn. The two just go together.

I have to wonder; how many people share in that $11 billion? I know I’m on the wrong side of the equation.

My problem is that Mr. GoAheadAndTryIt doesn’t wait for anybody to answer. We just go.

ground beef + bermuda onions + Paul Newman's Spaghetti Sauce over fresh pasta with garlic bread on the side and lots of a good red wine. The only ingredient that is really important is the red wine.

I have trouble imagining spending more than about a thousand dollars on any one thing so I put everything in terms of monthly expenses. I might look at the costs over a five year period for something like buying a car vs leasing but in the end, it comes down to what I can afford to do in one month.

I went to a very long info session today about my company's new Eco friendly waste disposal system. At the end of the session, I realized that the upshot was that we were all going to be taking out our own trash and whoever actually picks up the trash only has to make one stop per floor instead of going to everyone's…

I like shootouts too. I don't have the patience for sudden death overtimes and ties just suck. 60 minutes of hockey is plenty for me. I like the present NHL system a lot. Four on four hockey is always fun and then there's always a winner.

No, if there's a 4 on 3 and there's a penalty, they (in the NHL) put a player on the ice. It happened last week in a Bruins game.

I've always been a little cheesed off with USA Hockey for not setting some sort of geographical boundaries for national youth hockey playoffs. I mean, who cares if Little Casear's beats the Junior Ducks? Maybe some parents and a couple of college recruiters. I think that people would watch at a national youth…

Nope, the whole puck has to get over the line. There has to be white showing for there to be a goal.

Not quite. I've worked in a commercial version of one of these rooms and sound didn't travel very far but if you were working with someone nearby, you could talk normally. It was really weird though. It was like being between songs with headphones on, but all the time. Every time someone spoke, it was surprising…

I'm surprised no one caught the actual play call.
