What's "dub"?

No need to talk dirty here, but if it. . .

Unable to reconcile those two, but if it works for domestic harmony. . .

Perhaps your girlfriend selection process needs work. Check out the movie Diner.

Not much chance of missing that one.

"Papa" is used in English, too. That's got to be exciting.

You might want to say, "I hit him in the throat with my shot". "I shot him in the throat" paints a whole different picture, even in a hockey context. No offense -- your English is way better than my nonexistent French.

I'll believe that as long as it's not signed, "Epstein's mother".

You obviously need to work on being more lovable and cuddly, and not to colleagues' wives.

Same old story of academic politics?

They?

I wouldn't mind those gloves in 15".

That sucks. People are so much more important than stuff.

Just "decided", or they're already sold and gone?

First time with a snowblower doing my 1800 sq. ft. of driveway, and it beats the hell out of shoveling it all. And the machine I selected performed as expected. This'll be even sweeter when we get a snowfall measured in feet instead of inches.

Billing! I do some tax returns in conjunction with legal and accounting work. We can't all get paid to go to hockey games.

That works for me!

What was the date?

Funny that several of you seemed to know about it, but didn't post it here in the thread we have specifically for that. I And I'm still curious when and where it was.

First time bowling in over 25 years, and after some lousy balls, including some in the gutter, strung three strikes, opened, then kept marking.

Details?

There was a Blackhawks equipment sale? Please elaborate.

Looks like fun. Hope you're enjoying the new job.

Enjoy!

I don't know that it's automatic, they may have to add tracking to a parcel post shipment; I just know that I got one last week. Judging by the other mail I've been getting with tracking numbers, USPS doesn't always scan at every stage that they're supposed to, and their computer doesn't always update the web site timely. More than once I've received something, and the web site doesn't even show it out for delivery, though it does show its arrival at my local post office. I would suspect your shipper. It usually doesn't take too long for the USPS web site to show "acceptance", meaning the package was dropped off, or "electronic billing info received", meaning that someone got a label online with a tracking number and paid for it.
