  1. Wait until they hear how Germany spells its name!
  2. I feel like I've been ready for this game since 6 am.
  3. That Washington Capitals / Ukraine thing from a couple of days ago is looking more and more like a hoax. Has this been debunked now? I have seen nothing of it since that day.
  4. "O captain, your captain."
  5. Om\igosh. I'm glad that she's ok; are YOU ok?
  6. Did they win? Whom did they play? Not everyone has EPSN+, etc....
  7. I wouldn't mind the Sabres taking a flyer on a LHD at $750K / yr even though RHD is more in need right now. But I'd keep him on a very tight leash.
  8. Highest in more ways than one. People with tickets in the blues are still ducking because of PTSD.
  9. Listen here, you little ***** ... (I'm kidding; I know you've been around for quite a while.)
  10. Juolevi is on waivers.
  11. It's not "not as good." It's awful. And no need to be sorry.
  12. Doing the math from the article, this guy was about 23 when he was in Slapshot. It's amazing how every 70s movie made people look about 15 years older than actual.
  13. Honestly, two fun-to-watch games in a row. I'm hoping for the trifecta on Sunday afternoon.
  14. "Nothing burger" — originally often seen written as "nothingburger" — was likely first popularized in the early 1950s by a Hollywood gossip columnist named Louella Parsons to describe a person or idea that's essentially a whole lot of, well, nothing. https://www.sfgate.com/politics/article/Where-did-the-term-nothing-burger-actually-11283897.php It has been a weirdly-used term in law ever since. And Aud Smell is a lawyer. (And a pretty fair-to-good one. I'd call him "good" but his ego already is overinflated. But he is not a nothing-burger. And he knows I'm kidding.)
  15. And life goes on. Ukraine wasn't a freaking country when I grew up. I'm doing what I can, and I support them in this war no matter how I spell Kiev. Geez.
  16. Kill this thread. It was born of misinterpretation and it is being kept alive through idiocy.
  17. Sticks up, even. I love these guys. Except Eakin.
  18. SKIN TO WIN (no, not that, @inkman
  19. Sometimes. I do forget "Mumbai" sometimes. And it can get more confusing--is it Myanmar or Burma? England says the latter, we are on the former, the country, which probably wasn't even one until European powers started drawing lines, is divided. Beijing is written on my mind because of Tianmen; Calcutta, because of St. Teresa. (And please, pllleeeaaassseee don't get on her. Her job was not to provide medical help, no matter what the Internet thinks. Her job was palliative care.)
  20. I guess? You grow up spelling something one way, it becomes awfully difficult to change. I get what Ukraine is doing with the spelling change and approve of it, but it'll be a while before I'm used to typing it differently. I'm sure people know what city I mean.
  21. Bingo.
