Shit that second line should be "on the way to where it hacked its chip", didn't catch it before I posted

It met a transport on its trip
On the place to where it hacked its chip
An incredibly smart research ship
That was a huge asshole

Louis Sullivan, the architect who designed the Wainwright Building, did a bunch of the mausoleums, iirc. There's volunteers who do tours of different ones.
I think Tennessee Williams is in there, too

And if you're going, I'm pretty sure Phyllis Schlafly's grave is in the same cemetery

Okay, but first, you have to remind me how to shoot marbles.
There's a circle? And a big one that you shoot to knock the little ones out of the circle?
That's all I've got

Also, if you take my marbles, I will fight you

My fave is analogies that are hopelessly out of date
"This is for all the marbles"
Nobody does that anymore

We shall go on to the end. We shall fight in Boston, we shall fight on the seas and oceans, we shall fight with growing confidence, we shall defend our land, whatever the cost may be. We shall fight on the beaches, we shall fight in the fields and in the streets; we shall never surrender

Reverse it. Then Canada can win the Stanley Cup, too. Win-win!
And we can get health care! Win-win-win!

My wife wraps the covers of paperbacks around the backside when she reads them, and it makes my eye twitch every. fucking. time.
I had to say something eventually, and now I just buy extra copies for shit she also wants to read. I take off the dust jackets before I hand her a hardcover too

There are probably enough skaters for a Czechia team, you'd think
Obviously Russia is the elephant in the room, but fuck Putin

Whenever I loan out a book, I include a bookmark and the borrower is told to use it on pain of losing access to my library forever
If you dogear a page or crack a spine, you are dead to me and my library is dead to you

I loaned all of mine out, multiple times, and I managed to recover them every time.
But my HORNBLOWER books, the core three, came from my grandpa, so I'm really protective of those

I feel that, but "spirit animal" is a loaded term with cultural appropriation meanings

If he got a bunch of J6ers to erect a gallows outside of Bettman's office, I'm not sure he'd fail

post
All my copies of this series were bought from used bookstores, so I have a wild variation in covers. They're also all paperbacks
But my HORNBLOWER books are even wilder, since some of those came from garage sales or library sales
Good reads, though.

I snagged these tix for my birthday and I'm pretty sure it's gonna be the second worst present I've ever gotten myself

Said it elsewhere, but Crosby OT goal in 2010 to McDavid OT goal in 2024, both over the US, both after losing in earlier rounds, feels mythical

Saturday? At home? After a long layoff?
I've got tickets to the game, and I'm wearing an old cap for when Kyle Connor gets the hattie against #stlblues so I can chuck it and boo at the same time

*hand to earpiece* I'm being told that Canada has actually acquired Maine, and has instituted an immediate blockade of the St. Lawrence Seaway

I think this means you guys get Minnesota now. Since it went to OT, you missed out on North Dakota, but congrats anyway

I don't see any reason to try to find parking downtown for the game when we can just catch the metro. Game's at six, so I'm looking for a place to eat on the loop before we hop the train at 4:30 or so
comment in response to
post
We're parking and riding the Metro down to the game from the loop station, so that's kind of out of our way, but I'll check them out some time!

Philly should get to be honorary Canucks til Monday or so.
Cheesesteak poutine, is that a thing?

This put him over the top. Taking a last place team to winning the cup? That's one thing. Winning a best-on-best with the maple leaf on your chest? That's another.
Nobody talks about Halak or Giguere anymore, except as trivia
comment in response to

We were looking at Katsuya or Mo's Gyros, maybe?
I really like Salt+Smoke but we ate at their place in south city last time

Plaintiffs are numbers, defendants are letters. Come on. 😁
Also, I was late to the block party, anybody snag a screenshot?

Except for Wes McAuley.
They should just take him out back and shoot him.

Exactly. Just look at Gray missing a month to start the season last year, or Lynn missing the last month
comment in response to

If by September the rotation is Gray, Pallante, Mathews, McGreevy and like Liberatore or Robberse, I'm not gonna be happy about what the record is, but I will be happy about what next season looks like

Depending on March injuries, I'm fine with all of this. Some part of me hopes that Mikolas outduels Fedde, so he's the odd man out, but that's just residual fandom from like 3 years ago
And, obvs, Pallante has to hold up, too
