I think they need to muzzle Frank a bit. The scenario of reporters getting him on tape is all to realistic. While I pray for him, the Devil is having his fun. Sad state of affairs.

Thank you!

People who don’t understand that climate/weather changes are dictated by the sun, and our distance in relation to it, variations in the Earth’s orbit, etc are clueless and willfully ignorant-they remind me of that commercial where a guy stumbles into a backyard barbecue saying everything was white, etc, and someone says it was winter, or words to that effect...

The electrician showed up about 4 having run late on another job, and he had his helper with him-good thing, because that A/C unit was heavy and awkward, and it took all three of us to get it installed, wired and running.

It lowered the temperature nearly 10 degrees in less than 40 minutes after we cranked it up, so it is certainly worth the price-we work together on a lot of jobs, so the electrician gave me his discount on the price, and his price on labor was nearly $100 less than anyone else I’d gotten a bid from.

The money saved was worth an aching back for a couple of days...

You realize now I have to hope that the pens lose and fire Danny so we can get him. Him, Laviolette, scarface formerly of Tampa bay aka guy Boucher, Barry trotz. Torts would be fun. I hope against hope they don’t go after Brian Burke for GM. Don’t like him ATALL

Are you sure you are thinking with your head and not your heart?

If Bylsma is fired for being unable to get a talented team to produce playoff glory, isn’t that pretty much what you had the past few years?
