Every so often, someone posts in here and you realize your day isn't actually all that bad. So I'll just tell my snarky teacher to shove it and be glad I didn't get t-boned by some stop-sign running jerk. Glad to hear you're alright.

Incredible. I hope they are safe, it's got to be such a mess.

yeah...I'm sure it's been said already but people who spit on the inside of the boards by the bench, where people keep their water bottles. Especially the ones who dip. Just don't.

I had to have an abscess drained from my mouth. The infection did it's damage though. 11 root canals. 4 are wisdom teeth thankfully, but it's still bad. None of the teeth in the front of my mouth so you can't tell. But it's been very annoying to eat. I've lost 6 lbs since the operation because I can't eat the same foods. Also I've only had half the operation done. They're drilling a piece of my jawbone out because the infection did it's damage there too. It's not a pleasant experience. I've had to sit out numerous hockey games and practices because I've been in too much pain, or on too many painkillers. I've missed so much class, it's been horrible trying to catch up. Did I mention I have a horrid needle phobia? Thankfully the doc gave me some happy pills to relax me on the night before / hours before the operation(s). Also my girlfriend is driving me insane. Did I mention I caught a slapshot with my hand at practice the other night? Catch a slapper with my hand but can't bring myself to get stuck with a little needle. Doctor cleared me for contact hockey just a few days after the operation...but said I probably shouldn't be on painkillers while I play. Go Figure :P And in about a dozen less sentences, you still win :P. Hope everything is alright. edit: OH. The infection did so much damage because I've had it for quite a while. I never noticed because I never felt any pain until a few days before the first operation. oddly enough what prompted me to go see the dentist was my cheek swelling up for what seemed like no reason. The nurse said there are two highly likely causes for why I never felt the pain. Apparently a) I drank a ton of redbull in my teenage years. Apparently there's something common in energy drinks that kills nerve endings in your mouth, or something along those lines. Can't remember exactly what she said. Also B] I have had Arthritis since I was a child. Experimental medication when I was real young did damage elsewhere in my body, and could be linked there too.

hahah I thought the exact same thing. Nice gloves too!

pretty sticks Krypt!

Well if I don't like them I'll keep you in mind :D Going to try them out tonight. Midnight at long beach, by chance? LB has been evicted it was in Newsday. I know they put a hold on certain activities for now I'm not sure if that means open too. http://www.newsday.com/news/local/nassau/n...0,4878470.story Holy crap....glad I didn't try to go tonight. Thanks haha.

Definitley Rangers colors so it's a nice addition either way :P A little too much for me to wear personally. Those Hossa gloves on the other hand, I still dream of at night.

Those are seriously nice TBL

I was always too afraid of slicing my achilles to try that.

Revving any car high before it's properly warmed up is just plain not smart to begin with. I do the same and I'm 100% NA. My car will kick 2nd gear back into my face (during the winter) if I don't warm it properly. But that's a notorious problem with it.

how do you like the s17 cnt or nbh one90 compared to the dolomite? Been consider checking those out a little.

Bright lights create a 'starburst' effect across my eyes (I wear contacts) and have been recommended to try a tinted visor. I won't for numerous reasons. One being that I have made fun of kids wearing them for so long hah, the other that I don't trust peoples sticks so i stay with the full cage. Should just try different contacts, or maybe those Nike tinted contacts so I can fix my problem AND be a creep at the same time!

^^^ lol!!

yeah.

add two nipple grip warrior dolos pro stock. one ~70 flex one ~95 flex. (shaft + blade combos) http://img525.imageshack.us/my.php?image=h...lekrightey4.jpg Joken Hecht on left, Milan Michalek on the right. Excuse the poor lighting and dirty floor, but it was the whitest floor in the house :P Also add coconut scented wax.

oh dear god. The Johnson Shaft Are you up for the downstroke?!? "smack it up, flip it, rub it down..." I'll stop there cause it just gets worse. The whole catalogue has many a laugh. I'm still not sure I buy into the whole "Spyne" crap on the Kronik however.

been a while since I posted here, figured this isn't a bad place to introduce myself again. Shoulders/Elbows/Shins/Girdle Synergy 300 (upgrading soon enough >.<) Helmet- rbk 6k Stick - Synergy ST ala Sakic (retail) + Ethernet wire Backup - CCM Vector v6 (It's also my roller hockey backup so ABS blade boo :P) Roller - cut one piece synergy grip w/ abs blade. Gloves - Warrior Dolomite Skates - Vapor XXII's inline skates = RBK 5k with Rink Rat World Cup wheels. Camera phone sorry, also left it on night mode so it distorted some colors. I'm looking at TPS / Warrior sticks since I think I want something whippier. The Synergy ST has been through hell and shows no signs of breaking after 30 or so games. Figure it would be a reliable backup if I do want something a little more like a whip.
