  1. You can order them online - shipped direct to your door http://shop.tastykak...ollections.aspx Back when I was in prep school and college in New England, they weren't available up there, but my stepmother's company sold them shipping boxes. So every so often she would send me cases (12 boxes of 12 packs) of them, straight off the production line. Absolutely incredibly fresh and couldn't be beat.
  2. Does anyone have access to the MLX sizing chart? It looks like they took the website down
  3. Picked these up off eBay http://s1005.photobucket.com/albums/af175/jhoffman27/?action=view&current=KGrHqVHJFE636eh1BP2-ptDpg60_12.jpg http://s1005.photobucket.com/albums/af175/jhoffman27/?action=view&current=KGrHqRHJCQEOGYDomFBP2-lLK7g60_12.jpg http://s1005.photobucket.com/albums/af175/jhoffman27/?action=view&current=KGrHqVpsE-zm-pQYBP2-t5D60_12.jpg They look to be in great shape. Not sure what I'm going to do with them yet, but I always said if I found a pair in my size in decent shape I would pick them up.
  4. I think the point is that while the kid is a strong skater and him using zc means that it obviously works as a sharpening method, there isn't anything in the video that would allow someone to get an understanding as to whether or not it works better than other sharpening methods for that kid, or anyone. Just because he likes it doesn't necessarily mean its better in an objective sense, it just feels better to him, but it's possible that he would be faster or turn quicker on one of the other sharpening methods. I think that's where the bodybuilding anology comes from - just because it works for the kid and hes a good skater doesn't mean it'll make someone else a better skater. Personally, I'm interested in trying it,I'm using FBV now but I've never found it to be that starkly different than traditional roh like some have so maybe this will be give me that aha! Moment that a lot of people got with FBV.
  5. My wife does this all the time, no matter the subject the random person online knows more than me because he took the time to post it online. Drives me up a friggin wall
  6. Brind'Amour still looks like he's ready to put someone through the boards.
  7. Damn - I wish I had been back in Philly to pick up a pair of those long shells.
  8. People at the gym who ask you how many sets you have left in the middle of a rep. Are you so self absorbed that you think it's ok that i might get hurt because you distracted me 3/4 of the way into a squat with 300+ lbs on my back or are you just that oblivious to everything going on around you? Your time is that valuable that you can't wait 30 seconds till I'm done my set?
  9. Don't get your hopes up too high - I went to Daytona for SB in college and was massively disappointed with the quality of the females. Cancun and south padre had much better talent.
  10. Dont be ashamed, that kind of stuff happens in recovery. The key is not to allow it to become a pattern. Getting sober is hard, staying sober is harder, but the rewards are worth the effort.
  11. I have a Sher-Wood Damphousse pro stock from about 2003 that has a similar curve to that Jagr.
  12. You've really had no problems toting gear? What about sticks? Any chance you have tried carrying golf clubs? The reason I ask is that I'm buying a new car and have it down to a really low mileage 09 Carrera or an MB E550 coupe. The MB has a ton more cargo room, but driving the Porsche is just so sweet I don't know if I can say no.
  13. What's the lie like on those Giroux's?
  14. Can people actually pull them out? Today was the first time I saw them in person and after reading this thread I tried to pull it out just to see it but it seems to me like you would need a heatgun to get it out.
  15. Thanks, I appreciate the encouragement, but I am 29 at this point - have been playing since I was 5 - and this was my first truly major injury (had a couple of bad injuries in college but I was always able to play through them). Maybe this is my body's way of telling me its time to hang em up.
  16. So, I'm at open pickup this morning, going at close to top speed and cutting towards the net and the guy about four feet behind me decides to DIVE FOR THE PUCK. Long story short, his stick clips my skate, takes me out, I go into the boards knee first and low and behold end up with a broken femur in two places. I'm now writing this from a hospital bed, I'm going to have surgery in the morning, and I've been told that I have less than a 50/50 shot of ever skating again. Seriously, who the f--k dives for the puck in pickup??? Oh, and I bought TotalOne's last week, which means someone is going to be getting a pretty good deal in the sell thread.
  17. Well, apparently we're broken up now, so it's a non-issue, oh well, it wasn't going to be forever anyway.
  18. I generally utilize the same idea, but last night she seemed to be spiraling downward by the second. Anyway, once I finally spoke to her this morning I found out that her "issue" was something we have discussed repeatedly in the past two weeks and I thought was long over - women.
  19. I wish I could share with you all the series of texts I just exchanged with my gf, but I'm not going to type it all out. Let's just say it went from, "miss you, call me." to "you need to call me right now" when I responded that I was at dinner with friends I got, "today I'm over everything. Have fun. Do you." when I asked what was so bad about me being at dinner with friends that she wanted to break up (especially since she's on the other side of the country at the moment, so it's not like I blew off plans with her ot something) I got, "it doesn't mean i want to break up, stop being on the phone at dinner, we'll talk about it tommorrow." in the middle of all this i tried to call her like five times to figure out what the f was going on and the first time she hung up on me immediately and the sent all my calls to voicemail. This all went down in the span of 40 minutes. Oh, by the way, we're both 29, not 15 a although this level of crazy would be a lot even for a 15 year old. Oh, and does anyone know what the hell "do you" even means?
  20. Man, I miss good old Philly soft pretzels - I haven't had one since I moved away four years ago. Do you guys do online or phone ordering? Would love to get some delivered to the west coast.
  21. Especially when you consider that at the time they were the lightest skates out there.
  22. Apparently I've developed sleep apnea in the past three months, as I can't sleep more than 3 hours at a time regardless what I do. What really doesn't make sense is sleep apnea is usually associated with being overweight, but I'm 8% body fat. This is really brutal, I can barely stay awake at work and have to use my lunch hour to nap in my car.
  23. How does one go about buying a pair of those?
  24. Yes, officially, obviously there are always things that go on unofficially. Was he a recruited walk on or a true walk on?
