[[Signing] Canucks re-sign J.T. Miller]

Where’s Alf?

[Tight to the cap. Who goes poll?]

Can we add to the poll? Every time Alf says Benning you have to have a drink. Pretty sure we would all die of alcohol poisoning by noon.

[What's the name of this old arcade game?]

Dig Dug, Wizards and Warriors and Gauntlet gobbled a lot of my teenage $

[Why is everybody giving up on Hoglander?]

Hoglander, do we really need him?

 

In all seriousness he may just be a victim of numbers. He doesn’t provide size, toughness, offence or PK. I like the player a lot but it doesn’t seem that Bruce does.

Or, paying 10 million to not live in Cowtown. It’s all about perspective.

Erm. You might want to check out that Mcdavid video again and who he was at the bar with. It makes me sad when someone relapses but Zach was pretty glassy eyed in the video.

No. The team needs to be tweaked, not a tear down and rebuild.

Where would one get micro doses of psilocybin?  Im assuming a registered therapist would be a safe way to start dosing, are there any recommended pros in the Vancouver area?Interesting that this thread popped up as I have been researching this for a few days now.  

I went to the place at the corner of Davie and Richards and chatted with the very knowledgeable staff there.

Hi Crumb! Been a bit

 

My experience with mushrooms has always been recreational, but I am familiar with the reported benefits of microdosing for recovery from brain injuries, but also for the treatment of depression and anxiety. 

 

Dr. Deen put everything in a white overcoat for everyone, so I'll just add that taking small doses of mushrooms is always a good time. However I've tripped balls and freak the &^@# out from taking wayyy to many. 

Hapns

I used to trip a lot. Acid, local shrooms, the Mexican long stem. An eighth steeped in hot water for 10 minutes and add a bit of honey for special tea.

Interesting. Like @Salacious Crumb, I think I may have minor OCD, but I haven't had it diagnosed or anything though. I have no experience with anything remotely hallucinogenic though, so it would be pretty far outside my comfort zone. I'm of the sort that was raised in an "absolutely no drugs, smoking, etc." and I don't even drink, but I suppose maybe if I were to think of it in a more medicinal sense than recreational sense, it might seem less intimidating to me.

There is zero affect as far as hallucinating. I used to trip hard in the late 80’s. This is literally micro dosing. There is just a mildly uplifting feeling. I take 1 capsule on and then 2 days off. 

 

I’m very pleasantly surprised. My friend is a psychiatric nurse and she recommended a certain place downtown. I’m not sure if it would be against board rules if I said where.

 

 

[The microdosing thread]

I have a friend that has been championing microdosing for depression for years. As I have anxiety and mild OCD I’ve been quite interested and finally decided to try it.

 

I tried Zoloft, then Prozac and finally Wellbutrin over the last 2 years to try and improve my sense of wellbeing. Hated the side effects from using them. They definitely took the deep lows out of my life but they also muted anything that used to bring me joy a bit too.

 

Started microdosing a month ago and feeling much better overall.

 

I was wondering if anyone else has any experience in this area?

good to see you around Mr. Crumb.

Julioevi and Jake and Jarrod and all those picks wasted in trades for “filler” say hi.  

Fact: Gillis’ teams are our best ever.  

Opinion: Benning is our worst GM ever. 

You are yelling at clouds old man. Let it go bro.

The Canucks organization is not a democracy; it is a dictatorship, and as long as the owners like the logo and uniforms, they stay. Personally, I detest the orca because it is/was a corporate logo for a company no longer involved with the team. You do realize that probably thousands of NHL fans think that a Canuck is some sort of smiling fish taking a header through a plate glass window. Overall, the Giants have the best logo, followed by Abbotsford. The orca has to go, along with the stupid stick in the rink. A few years back, someone did a logo mockup of an aviator that looked pretty cool.

I absolutely detest the constipated whale. 
 

My Grandma had a crush on Harrrrrold so I rock #27 old school stick in rink.

[What's your bold prediction for game 1 next season?]

JT takes the opening faceoff with the C on his jersey.

[B.C. to decriminalize small amounts of ‘hard’ drugs – a North American first]

Legalize everything. Tax it and use that revenue to reopen Riverview so people aren’t on the street self medicating and build rapid access rehab facilities. Give people a chance to break the cycle when they are motivated, not tell them they have to get a TB test and a bed may open up in the next 6 weeks.

 

The war on drugs is over, drugs won. It’s time to fight back a different way. Status quo has not/is not working.

It was onside. Oilers lost. Life is good.

 

If the league feels like the rule needs tweaking they will tweak it for next season.

A Below average GM would have been an improvement over JB.

he was awful he surrounded himself with (a) yes men and tried to do everything himself.
An egomaniac who sold garbage excuses and pathetic catch phrases.errr ummm errr umm foundational…..

only thing I miss about JB is the level of stupid he brought to pressers and how many people bought the trash he was selling. 
 

PA/JR are surrounding this club with well respect smart people with differing views and expertise  the way smart successful businesses do. 

the new management  team has their hands full trying to fix the 7+ seasons of stupid.
