Unprofessional language is always part of the issue.

What happened sucks but tossing the f bomb around in the office never helps your situation.

Nothing wrong with that.

That is when you just sit back and wait for them to come to you and then force them and collapse. Most times those kind of guys never pass so it actually makes it easier to defend.

You're lucky. As much as we don't want to hit animals in the road, if it is him or me, I vote him.

Be happy, that means you aren't getting gouged on premiums.

It was most likely a medical loss rebate check. If your in a small group then your insurance has to issue a rebate if they didn't spend a certain percentage of small group premiums on medical expenses.

I beat him by 17 years. The reason so many younger men don't survive heart attacks is because they think they're too young.

You can make all that money back and then some if you decide to flip the GLI tickets.

The description was dead on for a cardiac event. Sharp pain between the shoulder blades and feeling like someone is sitting on your chest. Glad to hear it was muscular but keep an eye on the blood pressure. I ignored those borderline high readings and it almost cost me.

Not to scare you but that sounds like a cardiac event. Please get yourself checked.

On the flip side, telling him that the problem could be him is not really the best way to start this exchange. A better way of phrasing it would have been, "Why don't you schedule a fitting and we'll see if we can figure out something that will help you out." If there isn't any improvement to his spin rates during the fitting, then you can broach the subject of technique. If you walked into the LHS and said you were looking for a new stick to replace your crappy old one in order to get some more snap on your shot, how would you enjoy it if the sales guy's first line was, "It isn't the hammer, it's the carpenter."

The FIT machine was/is made by CCM. After your skates come out of the skate oven, you put them on and then your feet go into the FIT machine. The machine has air bladders which fill up and put pressure all around your foot, molding the skate to your foot.

My standard response is; "American???" They do the bake and then CCM fit machine. Worth every penny if you ask me.

Well, when your daughter is ready, why not show her that Oscar winning performance in Marty, and then she'll be like, "Wow, that's the same guy." Although, heck, I'd just let her get a laugh at McHale's Navy and work your way up.

If you go back through the history of cartoons I think you'll be surprised by what actors have lended their voices to characters.

I think with that contract he needs to make a cameo at SJ and buy a round for the boys.

It is a weird feeling when you think about the time you have stolen. I'm 3 1/2 years past being hit with the paddles on the table of the cardiac cath lab.

I kept my feet and guy didn't say a word, either right after or after the game. Not even anything after I got one of his teammates with a one handed chop on the hand and told said teammate exactly why he got it.

The jackass who decided to skate his shoulder right thru my head when my backdoor tap-in was already in the net. If I'm posting in the concussion support group thread a couple of days from now I'm going to be pissed. There's a reason I hate when we get scheduled against teams in the level below us.

I heard an interesting tidbit this morning. After the replacement host committed suicide, Dawson came back for a season but promised his wife that he wouldn't kiss any of the contestants.

Try landscapers, they are almost always hiring, especially the guys who do the big landscape construction jobs in new developments.

Actuaries who want you to record premiums improperly as net amounts because budgeting/forecasting said amounts at gross would be difficult for them.

I'd be happier if it didn't happen at all. If my body is going to decide to freak me out, the least it could do is make the panic worthwhile.

Lightheadedness and finger tingling that turn out to be nothing. My body should know it isn't nice to freak out a guy who had a stent placed in the widowmaker.
