Thanks for the invite, Mark. With the way I play poker, though, it may be easier for me to mail you a check for $25.00 and save myself the embarrassment! I think I will hold on to my money, but thank you.

Gorgeous night tonight... -10C (14F) out there...
Good night for a win. Into the final next weekend. And you guys think I chirp HERE? I'm personally responsible for 6 minutes in dumb penalties taken by the other team. Gotta control your tempers, guys... even when you're down by 2 and there's a tall, Irish biker calling your lineage and sexual orientation into question, and muttering unrepeatable things about your offspring to you. I can take the butt-ends and slashes if it means you watch from the sin bin for 2 mins.
I love winter.

I always knew you were a cunning linguist.

I wish all winter could be like this. Gotta love hockey. Only ever played spongee myself (never learned to skate ). Had my share of slashed hands and wrists, though.

I find it's harder to use my tongue if I'm watching it.

- 12C outside Edmonton this morning.
Finally been getting some reasonably cold weather the last week or two. Up till now the ice has been pretty soft and getting really chewed up during our hockey games.
Sunday night we finally had some good hard, fast ice to play on. Even got a couple goals while on defence (pretty infrequent for me). I'm not as hardy as you though, I haven't played more than the odd game on outdoor ice since I was a kid (like 40 years ago).

Yes, we had a lot of sledders go through the ice this year before we had the big cold snap. Only -29*C on the way in this morning - much better than yesterday!!

We are finally getting some snow. They're calling for 4 inches and it started comin down hard just in time for the evening commute home. The tobogganers and cross-county skiers will finally have something to work with.
