      I forgot the game was on, yes forgot on Remembrance Day. But I did listen to some Pearl Jam.

      Well then you get a pass. :)

  2. Just met/had a lovely chat with iMac in Tim Horton's (of course it was there...hockey door handles!). He's as nice as he seems. I was quite thrilled to meet him as he's my favourite of all the people who cover the team.

  3. Really sad news to hear Anne Heche's grim fate. Awful.

      From the reports, it sounds like she's DUI. I had strong feelings about people who do this sort of stuff, but now that she's pretty much dead, the whole situation is a tragedy.

      She passed away yesterday - they took her off life support.  RIP

      She was working on a sex trafficking film… always seems to be the fate…

  4. I care to read NO signing news unless it's about Petey (and Quinn).  I'm trying to be patient but it'll be a huge sigh of relief.

      He was pretty active on Twitter as well. I respected his opinions.

      Fun fact: does anyone other than me remember those athletic TV productions where they would pit male actors vs female actor, older ones, younger ones and do various running events, jumping events, etc. Ed Asner was in one of these and if I'm not mistaken they put him up against Rita Moreno. She had such a handicap, and Ed almost caught her.

  7. The comments from Laine and the fact that there are reports of a bit of discontent in the Jets' room makes me so happy our guys aren't divas...even if they like Fortnite.  Good on paper doesn't always mean it works.  I feel our team "works" together.  Bo accepts his role when others are out.  Petey just wants to be better.  Jake is working toward how he can be his best and is working hard to prove that (not talking to the media about how unfair it is).  Stech is a beast.   Quinn's a treat.  Brock wants to be here with his brothers.  Etc.  That's a team.

      Loui E. will be gone soon enough(I know not soon enough for some) ,we still have some pretty young guys trying to fill huge skates.

      We will start to take it to the league pretty soon just like when the Sedins were here and a few more players will be older wiser and some will be skilled and speedy and be putting it all out there for our "TEAM".

       

      GO CANUCKS!

      laine has adopted the subtle nuances of the shanaplan

      you will all see he will soon be signing with the jets

      after declaring to train with some german speaking team

      6 years @ a shade under 11 million per season

      @coastal.view  Jets have over 15 million in cap space available.  Giving Laine a huge deal shouldn't be a problem.

  8. Football trivia time:  I once had the great honour of trying on:  a Super Bowl ring, a Grey Cup ring and an XFL championship ring all in one go.  They all belonged to the same player...who is he?

      NCAA football yes, NFL Yes.

      I admire the fans, and players in the CFL and CIS, but I'm sorry 3 down football is meh. Especially running head starts for receivers? Points for getting in the end zone? 

      No thanks, Rugby > Football.

      It's not for everyone...I hate the running head starts too.

      Soon enough we'll be able to genetically sequence a replica (clone) of any species we acquire DNA for. Maybe it won't be the "real thing" But it will be possible. I bet in my lifetime.

      ah, yes, the Stamina-crushing Grouse Grind (G.G. for you online nerds); didn't think walking up stairs would be so difficult... though it was predominantly only tough in the beginning when I wasn't used to it; that's not to say that the elevation isn't deceptive, b/c it looks alright but brace yourself (and of course enjoy :^P)

  15. Feels GREAT to get my mountain bike back on the trails...although $120 for a tune up/new tire is a little steep?

      -DLC-

      I guess it is a fair price, just that it started at $45 and ended up being $120. It's a fairly good bike, so I guess that factors in...wish I did know how to tune it up.

      I'm scared to ride the roads here...too many crazy drivers. I stick to the dyke - such a great ride there.

      i can picture it now, bike bouncing as it makes it's way down the moutain; blond hair flowing out the back and a cow bell ringing, letting everyone know to clear the track....that would be a great picture to have over the mantel.

    4. -DLC-

      -DLC-

      Ha, pretty much Joe. And that's a great idea with the cowbell....would clear 'em all out. (FTR, the tire they fixed went flat again...back in the shop because it obviously also needed a new tube! This one's a freebie)

  19. Saw a woman just SMOKE her Thule car top carrier in the LD underground parking. She stopped and I told her she didn't have clearance but she said "oh, it's ok" and proceeded to back out, completely bashing it again. Tried.

  21. Oh NHL, smarten up. It's not about what the Penguins DIDN'T do, it's about what Ottawa DID do. Give credit where it's due!  Made it sound like the Pens were in the driver's seat when Ottawa completely took control of that game.  But make it all about Pittsburgh.

    Penguins don't test Senators enough in Game 1....Pittsburgh not panicking

      I just feel that the Sens are being short changed through this type of post game reporting.  They played fairly lights out against the reigning champs.  I think they should be the focal point here.

      And to top it off, the collective clown committee on CBC/SN, spewing their Pro-Penguins biased BS all game was infuriating.

      Friedman, Kyprios and Hrudey can all go suck some eggs. It's a freakin' Canadian TV channel, fire those wannabe 'muricans! At least Don Cherry was showing some pride with his Sens tie.
