I’m afraid there’d be no hockey teams in America if you excluded Canadians. Kinda like Americans on Canadian baseball teams. Do they even have major league baseball in Can. anymore?
It’s American Nationalism… aka MORONS. Yeah Bombs and Rockets! Yeah death and killing. We’re number one.
I can’t stand our anthem. I refuse to sing it or cross my heart to it now. I can’t even look up at the flag now during it. It’s grotesque. I wish they’d do away with anthems at sporting events.
My point was that a good portion of the ‘Canes are Canadian, so I don’t think them belting out that portion of the anthem means what you think it means.
I always thought our anthem should be America the Beautiful. Nothing about wars or bombs.
who rubs his face very sensual like during the anthems… I can’t remember who it is right now though, but HNIC always shows the anthems and gets up close to the bench and I’ve seen it a few times. It’s so cute!
I’m watching in online. I just figured it would be wgn. There’s this impending storm with black clouds obscuring the top of the Terminal Tower. It looks like that movie The Day After Tomorrow. It’s not raining yet so they’re still playing.
Whereas the Indians stink up the place before the all star break and then make a mad dash toward the wild card spot, falling tragically short at the end.
Just thought I’d pop in with some greenery to zip up the place and land in the middle of sportsland! Wow. I know a lot of foreign languages, but that one has always mystified me. Anyway, have some wearin o’the green…
Way too busy and mind numbing for my tastes, but as Mondays go… it could have been worse. Made it home and had a beer, then the photo walk… filled up my card before I even got back by the back bed, lol.
You should grow these! I haven’t planted a seed in about 3 years. They drop them in place and come back wherever they feel like it… I have a few seeds from an old pack left I’m going to throw out and see what happens. Can’t say enough about these weirdo flowers, so I’ll save it for my b-thingie.
Ok, you’re always asking me to post more in situ shots of things so here ya go. You, who encouraged my love of the close up shot, hehe.
my current vocabulary too much lately. Better chances tomorrow, supposedly. Believe it when I see it.
No, that’s a snapdragon, as that particular corner is the home of the spiky plants, BofI, snapdragons and delphiniums. Here’s the spot out back where the pink hollyhock came from …
But I’m only hitting a few spots tonight where seeds were recently planted. Still haven’t had dinner, so need to get going quick here. There’s a suprise drive by post here, if you’re so inclined . Maybe more later, who knows?
Anyway, gotta run now. Catch you sports fans after the game(s)!
Hi Olivia!!! I am doing well afte only 1.5 hours sleep last night. LOL I am trying to stay awake long enough so I sleep through the night tonight but all my body wants is a nap. LOL
Thank you!!!! I have many things I need to get done but am so sleepy I am scared that nothing will turn out right. LOL I have been playing a giify game where I blow up chickens. LOL
I really do need to start taking more pictures with my camera. Maybe I can get some good ones of them this weekend after my grass roots training on Saturday.
I sure hope George is all revved up and ready to play snarly while they’re there, if so appropriate. If nice relatives, never mind. I may do a post and run at the other place later, so take a look when you feel like it.
It just seems that hockey for me is very therapuetic. I can thrust out all my angst into it… and then … during intermission I go and get something out of the fridge… then… it’s back to angst… and such. 🙂
Hey everyone. Grab a beer and visit with the old Colonel.
Once a woman is introduced to Colonel Angus, she’ll settle for nothing less.
Ahhh Colonel Angus!! I get it now. 🙂
Of course I know Col Angus.
Of course you do. It’s good to see his shining face around here, isn’t it?
His glossy face. Those wettened whiskers.
Tongue the alphabet for me will ya Col!
How come the Col looks like Christpher Walken? Whom I find incredible sexy in a weird, psychotic sort of way.
🙂 okay hockey is in full swing I must go veg out on the couch with Wesley.
I’ll be back during intermissions. Maybe… 🙂
((((((((((((OOOLIVIA))))))))))))))
Don’t crush Wesley.
During the anthems…. the Canes started screaming their fool heads off during two parts .. “rockets red glare” and “bombs bursting in air”…
Jesus Wept. (if there is one)
so… to be decent… and not root for the nukyular idiots…
GO OIL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
(cant believe I’m rooting for Pronger now…)
To be fair, it is just about the only part of the song that’s singable. What an ugly tortured melody that is. Most people can’t begin to sing it.
I don’t feel fair at the moment. I’m bitter, ragged and edgy. LOL
I am conflicted about this game. No one I really want to win the Cup.
Okay Glenn Wesle and Ray Whitney. Them and only them.
Fuck Commadore. LOL
I kinda like that kid, Cam Ward. Only twenty.
Ward, I’m worried about your beaver! I mean, fivehole.
Another reason they should just do away with that anthem and just sing Jeremiah was a bullfrog.
Everybody can sing that. Even brainless and dickless bombhumping Bush supporters.
Well, hell, the melody comes from a DRINKING song!
It’s not MEANT to be performed, or heard, sober.
I’ve noticed it for the entire series they seem to just scream out that part like raving lunatics!
How many of the ‘Canes are actually Americans anyway?
I know Commadore aint.
Commadore played with Calgary during the Sharks attempt in which they got slapped by Iginla and Commadore. I’m bitter. I haven’t moved on. 🙂
MOst of the Sharks aren’t American. Most are Canadian so it was really ugly when a few assholes booed the Canadian anthem when the Oilers played us.
I think we have like 14 guys who are Canadian. They wrote that they felt hurt by the boos.
I’m afraid there’d be no hockey teams in America if you excluded Canadians. Kinda like Americans on Canadian baseball teams. Do they even have major league baseball in Can. anymore?
Toronto Blue Jays … they won the World Champs in 1992 and 1993 and have done nothing since then.
What happened to Montreal? Did they move back to DC and become the Nationals?
I guess baseball just doesn’t do it for us up here, otherwise they wouldn’t have attendance issues.
Canadian football 🙂
Whose the guy that’s so cute, small… and son is also autistic. I know I know it Just can’t think of it… ACK
That be him!
Ray Whitney, former Shark.
Todd Harvey. former shark… stilll a Skank.
I have his name/number on my jersey.. GACK! The mister got that gifty wrong.
It’s American Nationalism… aka MORONS. Yeah Bombs and Rockets! Yeah death and killing. We’re number one.

I always thought our anthem should be America the Beautiful. Nothing about wars or bombs.
I meant the Cane Fans. The skaters just rock back and forth doing the hockey dance. 🙂
Oh. Yeah, that’s probably true. People get so caught up in these things and act like it’s really personal. Assholes.
I love how they rock back and forth. I keep waiting for one to fall over 😉
who rubs his face very sensual like during the anthems… I can’t remember who it is right now though, but HNIC always shows the anthems and gets up close to the bench and I’ve seen it a few times. It’s so cute!
That could be Harvey. He would either rock or rub.
Turn on the Cubs game. They’re playing in Cleveland and, frankly, both teams really suck so it ought to be exciting.
so you’ll have to watch for the both of us.
Hockey, schmockey. Jacob’s Field looks awesome and there are great black storms blowing in off the lake.
and the games isn’t on wgn and it isn’t on espn either. What station are you watching it on?
Storms? Are they playing or if I could find the game would I get a nice view of the tarp?
I’m watching in online. I just figured it would be wgn. There’s this impending storm with black clouds obscuring the top of the Terminal Tower. It looks like that movie The Day After Tomorrow. It’s not raining yet so they’re still playing.
Cubs are up 6-3. They just have to finish this 5th inning for it to be a complete game before the storm starts.
I was a little surprised it wasn’t on wgn.
Odds are probably in the cubbies favor at this point — it’s traditional for them to pretend to be a functional team until the all-star break.
Whereas the Indians stink up the place before the all star break and then make a mad dash toward the wild card spot, falling tragically short at the end.
Just thought I’d pop in with some greenery to zip up the place and land in the middle of sportsland! Wow. I know a lot of foreign languages, but that one has always mystified me. Anyway, have some wearin o’the green…

Did you have an okay day today?
I love Bells of Ireland!!!
Way too busy and mind numbing for my tastes, but as Mondays go… it could have been worse. Made it home and had a beer, then the photo walk… filled up my card before I even got back by the back bed, lol.

Ok, you’re always asking me to post more in situ shots of things so here ya go. You, who encouraged my love of the close up shot, hehe.

I love that you filled your card! 🙂 I can’t wait to see what you’re going show us …
Well, maybe I’ll have to consider all your interesting plants when I do my garden makeover. 🙂
That looks wonderful IVG … I love it! Is that bit of pink in the upper right the hollyhock from the other day–I can’t really make it out…
my current vocabulary too much lately. Better chances tomorrow, supposedly. Believe it when I see it.
No, that’s a snapdragon, as that particular corner is the home of the spiky plants, BofI, snapdragons and delphiniums. Here’s the spot out back where the pink hollyhock came from …

It was wonderful. I hope you get the same. So are you done watering then for the night?
But I’m only hitting a few spots tonight where seeds were recently planted. Still haven’t had dinner, so need to get going quick here. There’s a suprise drive by post here, if you’re so inclined . Maybe more later, who knows?
Anyway, gotta run now. Catch you sports fans after the game(s)!
Enjoy your dinner … See ya!
The bells of ireland are beautiful!!!! I did a brides bouguet of them and cala lillies once for a bride. I wish I still had the photos.
How ya doing? 🙂
Hi Olivia!!! I am doing well afte only 1.5 hours sleep last night. LOL I am trying to stay awake long enough so I sleep through the night tonight but all my body wants is a nap. LOL
You must be really dragging right now … is it 730ish there right now?
Please tell me what kept you up was you were doing something wild and fun!
LOL It is 8:39 and I was suffering from insomnia. I did do some work on some designs but am not pleased with them so I saved them to rework.
… I know how awful that is myself … 🙁 Hope you get a good night’s sleep tonight.
Thank you!!!! I have many things I need to get done but am so sleepy I am scared that nothing will turn out right. LOL I have been playing a giify game where I blow up chickens. LOL
Sounds like a time-passer for sure. You know refinish, we haven’t seen the Diva Dogs in a while … 🙂
I really do need to start taking more pictures with my camera. Maybe I can get some good ones of them this weekend after my grass roots training on Saturday.
blowin up chickens??? CabinGirl will kick yer ass for that
🙂
LOL!!!! It is only a computer game and I hate chickens unless they are cooked anyway.
Just a hit and run. Dinner is done and I’ve got to go to the grocery store to stock up for the relatives coming in tonight.
I think there some sports on the TV tonight, but not sure what. Is it soccer, hockey or my favorite tiddly winks?
See ya’ll later.
I sure hope George is all revved up and ready to play snarly while they’re there, if so appropriate. If nice relatives, never mind. I may do a post and run at the other place later, so take a look when you feel like it.
What’s the Stanley Cup Finals without a ontroversial non-goal or controversial goal.
Are you on your hockey board too?
Yup 🙂
I think I never will understand the officiating. 🙂
very very dissshturbed.
I think Carolina is on fire DJ … It’s looking good for them. Can you believe the fans are still standing!!!
Standing fans remind me of the Phallus Scars fans.
Their TV angle is low so when the ‘foons stand it blocks the feed. I HATE that.
It’s like my top three reasons I hate Dallas. LOL
Being in the E. conf. All I know is that Modana reminds me of a beaver. LOL …
Ahhh I hate Modano!!
Gawsh I’m so bitter tonight… I think I need to get laid. LOL
Or have the Colonel over … 😉
They say the Col is addicting 🙂
It just seems that hockey for me is very therapuetic. I can thrust out all my angst into it… and then … during intermission I go and get something out of the fridge… then… it’s back to angst… and such. 🙂
It’s very schizophrenic for me.
Hockey is not one of the low stress hobbies for a gal who has tons of stress in her personal and political life. LOL
But I refuse to give it up – hockey that is.
But at least you can also get some of it out by hurling invectives and such … you know, screaming at the top of your lungs is a good stress reliever.
Very true! Gawsh you’re smart! I think I’ll hug you and squeeze you and pat you and call you my friend.
Thanks! 🙂
Welcome to the pond, Lord Stanley!
PISANI gets one in for Edmonton!!!
A whole new game now!!!!
He’s been doing that all series. 🙂
Him and Peca … wow.
Are you guys all getting settled in now. How’s things on the home front?
Wesley is so happy that Wesley is skating with Lord Stanley 🙂
All is well here. have to run out and see another hockey game. Roller hockey.
Getting sorta settled. Got to still get at the old apartment.
I am going to stretch out and hopefully fall asleep and sleep all night.
I hope you sleep soundly and all night long! 🙂
Sweet Dreams Ref69!!!!!
Today my lady was tending to the parrot feeders in the field & thought she saw one of my berets in the leaves.
Here`s what it was.
