The day he met him last week, we got our crabs and put in Slapshot for the nights movie. I needed a hockey fix!
My brother told him how we were into the Flyers back in the '70's and used to go to the Garden to watch games. Gordie says, "Wow, you guys were brave." You ain't kidding! I cant' tell you how many times we escaped with our lives by only a hair!
He looks pretty damn good for an 81 year old man.
I just woke up from this dream:
It's one of my dreams where I have to pee in real life so it somehow transfers info my dream... I'm on a toilet but it's out in the middle of a public square. I'm fine with that though and no one else seems to think it's weird and I'm just finishing up when Johnny Cash walks past saying loudly that he needs to find a new energy source. I offer "I pee a lot, can you do anything with that?" and he stops to give me a considering look with his hand on his chin.
I'm officially insane, right?

::lmao:: Are you preparing for another public speaking gig at work ?
There was a LOT more but that was the strangest part... and no, I'm not up for another briefing for another two weeks.
But due to many complaints, they've decided to have only the schedulers that are briefing (three at a time) be there and the rest of us can actually continue working. That'll cut down on the crowd a LOT and I shouldn't be nearly as nerve-wracked about it. Management was pissed but they complied. Assholes.

Oh shit..never mind. I think I am halucinating. In the drop down favorites menue, Mock always had the middle finger, then it was a flag..now it is the middle finger again.
Go about your business, I am in need of havingmy eyes checked or something::insanity::

Beluga whale Mila spotted diver Yang Yun struggling in the water at Polar Land in Harbin, northeast China.

Terrified Yang Yun thought she was going to die when her legs were paralyzed by crippling cramps in arctic temperatures. Competitors had to sink to the bottom of an aquarium's 20-foot arctic pool and stay there for as long as possible with the beluga whales at Polar Land in Harbin, north east China.

But when Yun, 26, tried to head to the surface she struggled to move her legs.
"I began to choke and sank even lower and I thought that was it for me - I was dead. Until I felt this incredible force under me driving me to the surface," Yun said.
Beluga whale Mila had spotted her difficulties and using her sensitive dolphin-like nose guided Yun safely to the surface.

I had the same reaction...Stories about God's creatures always have that effect on me...Now, had it been another diver that had saved her I wouldn't have had that reaction at all.

BENNIES GO HOME!
I just wish there would be one week in the summer (it's not a lot to ask for!) that we locals can have the shore all to ourselves without the damn bennies. Granted we have it all winter but that don't mean jack shit!
