I can't even imagine how frustrating and scary it must be to have post concussion symptoms for this long. I hope he can make a full recovery and resume his career.

max & lamp: A co-worker who does long distance running has told me some horror stories. Not his site: http://www.runningdoctor.net/2010/11/runners-nipples-survival-guide.html

We had 3 lines and 5 D last Tuesday.

My ball team can't seem to find a win...my hockey team can't seem to find a win....I'm starting to think it's me *L*

My skating is totally lacking knee bend (and hustle for that matter) *L*. The move #23 pulled to score at the end was really, really good...but my GF was following me :)

After a beautiful day yesterday (25 and sunny)...we're back to a stretch that forecasts 5 straight days of rain.

Co-worker has pink eye. He was here for a couple days before he went to the Dr. I suppose I've been exposed...why does my left eye feel itchy all of a sudden. FML!

Tell them working makes you happy. Therefore it meets the requirement of pleasure driving.

Copps Coliseum in Hamilton.

My Girlfriend was playing with her new camera this weekend...so she came out and shot at my Sunday night pickup group. I wish I was actually doing something in these *L* But, better than the ones of me on the bench. Backchecking is sooo overrated. If only the pass had gotten through to me...WIDE OPEN. D-Men didn't even look at me. Another coulda...shoulda...woulda moment! I think the pass got blocked. If I'm gonna continue to rock the MSH look...I think I need to get some Black gloves. I took some heat from the boys for wearing my Bruins/MSH socks with Habs pants...but what can I say. They match the jersey. Gotta look good. *L* jds: I don't think I've seen that angle of Crosby after the goal. Did you take that one?

People have varying degrees of vents. Some are tragic or very personal...others seems frivolus to those not involved. Try to be sensitive to one another. Yes, It's an open forum to "vent". Sometimes you just have to think about the juxtaposition of the topics. No need for name calling.

Tonight is the night. Going to Habs/Leafs with tickets I won at the company Christmas Party. Too bad it ends up being a nothing game for both teams, but the rivalry is always good. And, my GF has only been to Bulldogs (AHL) games. I told her this will be a little different than Copps with 3,000 people. :) ** - I guess not a total nothing game. Habs still have a seed to lock up. Nice to do it with a win rather than having to wait and see what Buffalo/NYR/Carolina do.

The company just reworked the vacation formula. I get 5 weeks starting Sept 1/11. Gotta start saving up so I can actually DO something with that extra week *L*

My right shoulder is a mess. I'm thinking it's Rotator Cuff. Not sure when I hurt it, but it clicks and pops a LOT when I rotate it...and it's weak when I have any weight or resistance on it. Even holding my arm out and turning my palms to face upward hurts. Ball and Summer hockey both start soon. My GF asked me yesterday when I was going to go to a Dr. I said I wasn't. I fear that any treatment will screw me for the summer. I know it's childish and stupid. FML! /end vent.

My GF has been texting me from the Lady GaGa (no relation *L*) concert all night. Apparently the opening act went on just before 8, and played for half an hour. They've been waiting for GaGa since then. I just read on a Toronto Radio station facebook page that she finally went on at around 10:15. No confirmation from my GF yet. You make 18,000 people wait 2 hours...you better be singing live when you finally go on! Diva musicians, oh sorry - "performers"?!?!?!? WTF?!?!?!?

I'm sure you knwo this, but Terry Pegula is the guy that just bought the Sabres...so, it would appear they are in good hands moving forward and should be a much better team in teh next few years.. Which, as a Habs fan...I guess makes THAT my vent *L*

Wow!. I thought the AHL ASG was Tues/Wed, surprised they put their Skills Comp up against the NHL game.

Saw Brad Paisley with Darius Rucker and Jerrod Neimann last night. Great show. Of course Rucker did a bunch of old Hootie songs, but he also did "Family Tradition" (Hank william Jr.) and "Purple Rain"! Very cool. Brad was exactly what you'd expect. I've seen him 3 times now (twice when he was the headliner) and he always puts on a good show.

I wish I could be as fit as him when I hit 36 in a few years...let alone 96! Dude was a machine!

The hit David took didn't look as hard as the hit Crosby took in the WC...then he got hit again 2 nights later in TB. I wonder if the thought/hope that he (Sid) will be back in a week is looking more and more pipedream? David has started slow if I recall...but had really been playing well leading up to his injury. Too bad. If done for the year is true...hopefully, he can come back strong and ready next year.

So...we had our company Christmas party last night. We've made a tradition of having it in January because it's a lot easier to get a venue and have more people able to attend. Anyways...Boss says...if you have an iPod or MP3 player...bring it for a contest they're having. Turns out...he has an iPod Song Challenge. 2 people head to head...pick a song from your player...other person has to match you. Rest of the audience picks best song. There were also some showmanship elements taken into consideration... Can't recall all the songs I challenged...but: Pinball Wizard (The Who) Save a Horse, Ride a Cowboy (Big & Rich) I'm On A Boat (Lonely Island) & Don't Stop Believin' (Journey) Won me Habs/Leafs tickets for April 9th at ACC!
