YO! A very uneventful weekend for me. I worked a full day yesterday (BLAH). I have today off thanks to MLK, and I am heading out in a minute to get my flat tire (on my car) repaired. Stupid flats.
MMcG and I had a dek-hockey game last night. We POUNDED the other team, although the score was close. We won 4-3. I had a pair of goals.

'morning all.
Went to a hockey game Sat. night that my girlfriend's brother played in. They absolutely trashed the other team - 11 to 4 I believe was the final score - and I got some decent action pictures of her brother. Plus got treated to beer and chili afterwards
Beer & football last night...

And Good Morning Monkeys - had a good weekend. Went to watch Laura's daughter play basketball Friday night and then came back and had dinner at Laura's -watched Stepford Wives - lame movie IMO.
Saturday drove down to Northford, CT where Liam's team kicked major butt over the Greater New Haven Mite Bs! Then up to Bolton to help Connor out on the ice for his instructional hockey session. Dinner with Laura on Saturday night.
Sunday - more hockey - this time a home game for Liam - they tied 2-2 but it felt more like a loss for some reason - they just didn't play up to their capabilities on Sunday. Then Dek Hockey with IAB - he kicked ass again out on the floor with a couple of goals. Then IAB and MBC invited me over for dinner - good eatins too!
waiting for my ex to call so I can go pick up my sons from her office. Me and the boys are off work today.

I don't watch the NHLstosh said:
Hockey is one of those sports that totally eludes me. I watch some of these guys, and it's like they may as well be wearing street shoes considering how balanced and easy it is for them to skate, and then, while on these precarious skates, they reach out and slap a three inch puck out of midair with their equally skinny stick.
I have an immense appreciation for the skill involved but I can't really relate to it, so I only watch games that I know someone personally in. I'm sure I'd watch it more if I knew the rules and such.
Mark, I'll post some downsized pictures tomorrow if you want. The lighting is particularly bad in the arena but they came out fairly well all things considered!
Post em up! I'd love to see them!binary visions said:
Mornin.
Just got into work - I had the option of taking today off due to MLK day. Was going to, but saw on the weater that the windchill was -20 for today, so I figured any riding was out of the question. If I can't ride, what's the point in taking a day off? So, here I am.

Good Morning.
Friday night watched Kill Bill vol. 2
Saturday I just did things around the house. Went to Best Buy to try and spend my Gift Certificate I got for Xmas. I couldn't find anything I really wanted so I bought my son a movie.
Sunday my son and I went to the fish store, and picked up 3 Mexican Turbo Snails, and two Clown fish. Looked at PC lighting, and honestly wondered if they sell any, because internet prices are tremendously better. Oh and watched most of the Colts game. What a sad way to go out.

GOOD GOD!!! That sounds cold!
I was complaining this morning because it was 25.
good weekend. didn't do all that much saturday day, aside from my spin class in the morning, but went out to see The Soundtrack of our Lives that night. excellent show, really tight band, good tunes, fun times. had a tasty steak frites for dinner beforehand, and also walked over to check out my brother's new house in cambridge, before the gig.
yesterday had some friends and their daughter over, and then watched the pats shackle the colts. also caught the premiere of iron chef usa, which was better than i'd expected.
work today. cold, too.

BRRR!! I get the shivers just thinking about that.stosh said:
I literally was sitting in the car, waiting for it to warm up going thinking it way too dang cold to be out here. I'd freak out if it was -anything.
Something else that was kind of funny this morning was my laptop would not boot up when I got to work. It sat out in the cold with my car all weekend. I guess the hard drive for frozen or something.
stosh said:
I know, I just got in the habit of leaving it in there. Maybe I should bring it in...You think?
nope. had a few scammers contact me, and a couple of people interested in trading it for free-ride/dh type frames.stosh said:
Booting up computer hardware when it's cold is bad for it... Wait until it warms up completely before trying to turn it up.JSB said:
Oh, and Manning blew chunks yesterday. Even if I was rooting for the Pats, it's a shame to see a really great quarterback suck so hard in such a critical game.
Never in a million years did I ever think I'd ba happy to see monday. After doing my wife's family reunion in PA this weekend, I'd be happy if I was having a root canal done today.
HAPPY MLK DAY!
my weekend...well, it wasnt much of one because I had to work. 20 degrees you say? F that. it was 16 here last night. I thought i was going to die.
I will have weekends off soon, or at least one weekend day off, hopefully I will get to race a lot more this season too.

Just got back from Town Fair Tire. $5 to fix my tire and mount it. :dancing:
If the tire couldn't be fixed, I'd have to buy a whole new set.

Why are you on the computer, then? Go ride!biggins said:
I hear that... Same thing happens to me once-in-a-while.douglas said:
We have a Jr. hocky league in our valley & their games are free to watch, even tho I'm not a hocky fan, when those guys hit those boards...
Man ... Finished my chores early Sunday & went for a short ride!
I have no interest in FR/DH frames.stosh said:
nope. But I also know there's no local DHing to be had. That means, any DHing I might do would require a day trip. Day trips are going to be verrrry limited for the next 5 years or so. Plus, I have no parts for an DH frame, so it would be a while before I'd have it built to ride.stosh said:
Good morning, I'm at work too beehotches!!!
The NHL is screwed as I see it. Let's see, it's the least popular of the big 4 sports here in the US, but the players are treating it like it's the biggest. Of the big 4, hockey is the last sport that can afford a lockout, fan loyalty might never return to levels it's been at for the past several years. It took something as big as the homerun race between McGwuire(sp?) and Sosa to bring the popularity of baseball back to its peak after its lockout, I doubt the average American will get as excited about a hockey record. I say, replacement players and start over.
It's very windy today, maybe in the 60's. Sorry bout the snow guys.
