I'd really hate to be his neighbor.... that is, unless he plowed my property, too.

Speaking of hockey, Bren.
I notice that the US is not quite the hockey country these days that Canada is.
Witness the fact that the US Olympic team just lost to half a country.
Hmmmmm......

Well the Canadian mens team isn't doing that well either (at least at the moment). Yesterday they lost against Switzerland 2-0, which is probably a first. And they're in the first period against the Finns right now and getting outshot badly. The Finns also beat Switzerland the other day. Both our countries mens teams are having a tough go of it.
Well, back to the game.

In reply to:
Leaving your hockey equipment in the vehicle overnight when it's -20 or 25C and your were concerned about it gettin stolen?
Let me point out how I phrased that... THE goalie equipment... Saturday I was returning the equipment to our usual goaltender. It was his shins and groin that were going to be exposed to the cold pads. Besides, since we play outdoor (anyone remember outdoor ice?) warm equipment just delays the inevitable.
In reply to:
I always bring my hockey bag in during the winter just to warm up and dry out the contents.
Oh, it's brought in and dried... that's the great part about having a crawlspace right next to the furnace... the mechanical room smells like gently warmed crotch for a while. But the equipment is always cleaned and dried.

Given the context of Bren's statement above...I reckon you'd be piss poor, no?

My own "forward" equipment - I keep it clean and fresh smelling but I've never met a goalie whose equipment didn't smell like ol' Frieda on 3rd street.
