NHL 2014-15 Regular Season

Poor Wolfie !  :cry:

What did you say? I am afraid I fell asleep before the end.

My family has since moved from TX to CA.
Nearby gasoline Regular varies from $5.86 - $6.49 /gal.

Guys,

––First, let me start out by saying “Unbroken” is NOT a war movie,….at least like you normally think of one.
----It IS a very powerful, inspirational movie that is extremely well done. It also has a enough WW2 action/scenes to be “interesting” to a WW2 buff. The CGI as well as the physical props were well done. I only noticed one inacuracy,…when returning to America at the end of the war there was a transport aircraft that still had the early ww2 red dot in the star and red/white rudder stripes. I guess it might have been possible but I doubt it. Anyway, it was hardly noticable (except to a historian) and didn’t detract from the movie at all. All summed up, a great movie that’s well written, acted, with great cinematography.

----My opinion,…If you want to see a well done INSPIRATIONAL movie set in the WW2 era, this is a GREAT ONE!

I’m hard pressed to put it into words. I think opposed isn’t the most precise word for it. I just don’t like them.

They seem as much geared to a need for instant gratification as opposed to seeking the best. They feel like when teachers allow extra work at end of term to make up for low test scores or other poor performance earlier on.

I think they diminish the regular season. They often create situations where one team has to beat another twice to be conference champion.

They feel more geared to society’s seeming fascination with seeing the mighty brought down than with the raising up of persistent excellence.

The conference championships and especially calls for a playoff seem to fall back on some sort of law of the jungle meme, you couldn’t beat me today so I’m the best! But that oppurtunity seems to be handed out on making an exception to that rule. “What do you mean my pleas for fairness are unfair to you? Who said life is fair?”

It comes across like extending the race one more mile because you didn’t like the winner.

Maybe it is that it can often seperate in my thinking ‘best’ and ‘champion.’

Venison also makes good jerky and sausage, I also like various pickled deer organs-I forget which ones besides the heart.

How could i forget these two:

There’s not wrong with this tax. At least its something the voters have a chance to decide. If you don’t like it, don’t vote for it… :-? At least you don’t have the tripling of the car tax (or as Davis puts it, “car fee”) here in CA…
