RNC just had the testicles to call me and ask for $. LOL! needless to say i made short shrift of them.
is he scarface? i was sad to see him get the axe, he would be good. He’s another one who looks like he doesn’t take even a minutes worth of sh!t.
Awesome. But I’ll have to go back and read the second half later.
Good for you-I’ve also ignored their calls and letters, too-I refuse to donate to any but local and state candidates-no RNC.
I see that they found Jody Arias guilty of murder one...
My Aunt Polly an' a mouse.
Bouche means 'mouth' - yeah, he looks like he doesn’t take any...
A+++
You gotta love Aunt Polly.
“Love Contracts?” “Cohabitation?” Looks like marriage has become polyonymous:

Any name BUT marriage. I don’t get it.

Libs control the language so they can control the agenda.
Only game in town tonight — hard to keep things Straight sometimes.
3-3 going into OT now ... not a really fan of sudden-death, but it can be exciting.
Vokuna Matata!
Islanders were tough tonight and deserve a lot of credit. Would have been easy for them to come out flat tonight, but they didn’t.
Hope the Sens weren’t paying much attention to this series.
wins it in OT?? (Buffalo boy - PIT via California) At least it was a clean shot ... Pens need to clean up the D though, Ottawa will be in often & firing!
You didn’t see games 1 and 5. Both shutouts and stifling. The Pens can play defense, when they want to. They have trouble doing it when they are behind, as they were most of tonight.
I agree with Mikrofon, that if they don’t tighten up the D, the next series will be their last one. They left Vokie out to dry on one of those goals.
Vokoun didn’t help on the Islanders 3rd goal by not freezing the puck prior, but then you can’t cough it up the middle with full control of the puck. No doubt that PIT can lock it down, as they have demonstrated.
I confess to not following the Pens’ series that much (watching the disappointing MTL series) ... But it was strange in post-game that the “analysts” downplayed Vokoun’s capabilities & role going forward, though the switch from Fleury may have saved their playoffs.
Even w/o Spezza and other season-long injuries, Ottawa are still dangerous snipers, and old man Alfredsson usually brings his money game the deeper they go.
All Bylsma said when asked about goalies was that they were going to enjoy having won 4 games and weren’t going to talk about it that night.
Of course, he stays with the hot hand. He be stupid to switch now.
Not to say something doesn’t happen down the road and he switches again. Playoffs are long (if you’re lucky) and it’s good to have 2 decent goalies with playoff experience.
Coach Grapes in fine form as Bruins-Leafs #6 is underway in TO:
What a character. In so many ways.
