12/03 Road Music, @ San Jose Sharks
Do you know the way....
....to beat the San Jose Sharks? Nobody else does; they sit atop the Western Conference with 42 points (19-6-4) and have won 4 of their last 5. Their record might have something to do with
In the six games they've been together, the mega-powers line of Dany Heatley, Patrick Marleau and Joe Thornton has scored a combined 30 points; Thornton's 1 goal and 12 assists; Heatley's 4 goals and 5 assists and Marleau's 6 goals and 2 assists, including his two tallies last night.
That's a pretty formidable lineup. And it's not like we're not aware of their potency: when they came to town 11/14, goals were scored by Heatley and Thornton.
But let's not give them too much respect here: any team is beatable. We can't play their game; we must make them play ours. And we must remember the lessons from that previous match-up.

And, for the kids out there, here's the version you're more familiar with...just beware of the pyrotechnics:

This is also your pre-party. Meet, greet, bitch about late start times, and get all of the lame So Taguchi jokes out of your system. The puck drops at 9:30PM Central.

the late start time
is great for me, i have dodgeball tonight at 6:30 and ill be back home around 9 so i wont miss much if any at all
Pujols takes out "I" in BIG and "A" in MAC, previously considered to be an unyielding, consonant threat
Likewise/
I should be home exactly for puck-drop after the Thrashers game. I wish that the two teams’d have more games NOT scheduled on the same night. It’s not an issue when the Thrashers are away, because I watch the Blues, but home games… sigh

Dude in the video @ 2:36 has a shark tat. Bad Omen.

Great White . . . LOL
They should’ve done a tour with The Talking Heads . . . the “Burnin’ Down The House Tour”. I would’ve bought tickets and given them to my worst enemy. It would be epic.
Those of you who don’t get the joke . . . this happened my senior year in college. Fuck, am I getting old.
One day, David Backes and Albert Pujols will combine forces to become the most awesome piece of violent force known to man.
Hey you guys!! :)

No. No. Our fighting forces are never wrong.

My College Roommate LOVED this song
He thought is was so great. He’s a solid dude too even though he had a shitty taste in music.
North Co! North Co! North Co!
Late game times DO suck...
but I guess I’ll have more time to get the house somewhat “christmas-ed” before I get too distracted with the game! Normally I’ll stick out a game even if it looks bad…but with these late starts, if its out of control and looking like a very bad outcome, I give up. And I feel shame for it, but then I’m not usually shocked in the morning to see the results.
Note to Blues: KEEP ME UP LATE TONITE!!!!!

Wait a minute…. that’s “It’s A Wonderful Life”….
(Seriously its coming…just as soon as I can get rid of all these undergrads complaining about not getting their midterms back from October.)
I've hinted a few times
I think monday someone said later that night or the next day. Said it would have #57
A homeless guy...
Just asked me for the rest of my chips and salsa from Moe’s. I gave him that and $4. I thought that being nice was supposed to give you the warm and fuzzies, because that just made me feel a little guilty about the nice stuff I have this time of year. :(

I'm a softie.
Can’t help it. If someone comes up to me (and I’m around other people) and asks for something, I’ll give it to them.
Oddly enough, I refuse to ask for Jack or shit for myself.

giving to the drunks and drug addicts just makes the problem worse and draws more in. The ones who claim vet status for more sympathy really crank me off. Most of them have never set foot in the military.
Some days its just not worth chewing through the restraints
statistics show
that most are vets. I’d bet 80% of those people, at least, aren’t lying.
Sometimes, I wonder why hockey came south of St. Louis, and then I realize, I'm south of St. Louis. Coincidence, I think not.
I think this guy needed it.
He took the chips, bought a aide of salsa, and dug in. Looking back on it, I shoulda just bought him a burrito or something. Dammit.
I usually don’t give because I don’t trust people, though. This guy just seemed like he needed it.

from my experience
when I ask these supposed vets questions about their military life, they don’t get past 2 or 3 questions. Most are frauds. You just gotta know what questions to ask. If you’re quoting the MSM and their numbers those folks fall for the phony hero stories every week it seems like. Check SOCNET if you want to really see how many of these frauds are out there drawing praise and VA payments.

Ok, now, that's just mean.

Krystal is a nasty knock off from White Castle
White Castle = Greatness
Unfortunately I don’t have one of those here either…and we didn’t have time to stop at one when we were in Chicago for Thanksgiving

best thing about Krystal:
Free wi-fi. Saved me on a roadtrip many a times.
Sometimes, I wonder why hockey came south of St. Louis, and then I realize, I'm south of St. Louis. Coincidence, I think not.
Sadly, you right.
And every time I hear someone talk about how awesome Krystal is, I want to shove a White Castle cheeseburger down their throat.
Hell, even the little frozen ones are better.

Only one in the St Louis area, about 35 min from me.
I may have to make a commute soon now that you’ve put that in my head

Lawyers wouldn't like that, either.
I know it's time for hockey because I've started singing "Don't Stop Believing" with the words "...born and raised in FUCK DETRIOT!!!"
That's what I'm saying.

Ya, I know
I had an old (10 years) rear projection HDTV (yep, they made em that way back then) and finally upgraded last week (delivered today).
You can't call me a fair weather Blues fan.
ROFLMAO!!
My mom had a projection TV she just got rid of this year. That thing was HUGE and quite honestly, it sucked. Her new flat screen HDTV is nice, but ours here in Nebraska is bigger!! Tee Hee!!

WAY too late for me. I’m about to head off to bed.

Go Blues! I predict that we’re going to break out tonight.

Question about the Channel...
My TVGuide says that the game is not on the Standard Def. Fox Sports Midwest, but is on Fox Sports Midwest HD. Is this correct?
I need my fix!
Its weird... half the year my blood is red... but then the other half... it's blue... hm...
