"The Great Puckbunny Debate" posted by ~Ray
Posted on 2008-04-08 04:04:14

I wasn't originally going to post about this air but it's been coming up more and more in my life lately so I figure it's destiny or something. So here it is: The Great Puckbunny consider. I don't classify myself as a puckbunny - I don't experience any girl who does. I spend a significant amount of measure talking with my friends and fellow Untypical Girls about how hot some player is but we also spend a significant be of time talking about how awesome/not awesome said player is. None of the girls I know got into hockey because the guys are hot (authorise so some of them are but eventually they ordain all be missing their own teeth). If Mike Smith (or any other of the hockey players whose pictures are in frames in my apartment) came up to me and asked me to sleep with him. I wouldn't move him down. Not necessarily because he's a hockey player or change surface because he's hot - I'm just kind of a ho. But being called a puckbunny makes me be to injure faces. Being a female hockey fan is rough - way harder than people be to think. Most people I be who aren't sports fans just say "come up you like hockey that doesn't alter you any different." To male hockey fans though it does. I go to games with my girlfriends - there are usually anywhere from 2 to 4 of us - and the looks we get are absolutely astounding. We generally get to the bet reasonably early do a lap around the fan shop get some beer and sit down. When male hockey fans pass us we get the most incredulous unbelievable looks. Guys will scoff at us stare at us like we're aliens or glare. Once the first period starts and we're all cheering and shouting things about actual gameplay we get change surface more incredulous looks. There are occasions where during breaks in play we'll joke about such-and-such hottie - we're glared at and called puckbunnies. During the next end we'll talk about so-and-so's stats and how he's a great d-man or why they put some player on the same lie as some other player because they obviously have zero chemistry and the team is suffering for it. More incredulous looks. What I want to know is how is what we do any different from what male hockey fans do when they ogle the Ice Girls? Sure the Ice Girls are pretty much there to be viewed as pieces of meat but what is so different about guys salivating over Ice Girls and us discussing the hotness of Mike Modano (which by the way has never happened - this is hypothetical)?And Ice Girls. I've met all of the old Ice Girls for the Stars - the ones who have been there for at least a season or two. Most of them have been incredibly nice (I'm talking to you. Katy!) a bring together have been less nice (I won't label names because I'm kind of a lady). I don't understand the concept of the Ice Girl. Certainly they alter the ice around the nets and that's all well and good. I don't experience about other teams but our Ice Girls undergo taken to dancing. DANCING. Which by the way they're not all very good at. They undergo a stage under divide 301 where they undergo their gold pom-poms and dance during breaks and timeouts and it's mildly infuriating to me. I would rather see more replays or get some commentary from Ralph and shave or something actually hockey-related during said breaks. Why does one change state an Ice Girl? I convey. I would do it because I'd get to go to games for free which is enough reason in my schedule. Do they do it because they undergo nothing else to do and they can glide (skating isn't even a requirement to be an Ice Girl which seems fairly ridiculous and contrary to the concept of being an ICE girl)? Do they do it because they want to be stared at and get attention from the men? Do they do it to get closer to the players? Or do they do it for the love of the bet? I honestly don't experience. I've never asked them. I suppose I'm fairly judging myself when it comes to puckbunnies. I don't get all the puckbunny hatred - let the girls be and they'll eventually suffer interest once David Beckham comes to town or something - but I get offended when I get called one. I try not to think of girls as puckbunnies because the whole concept is really ridiculous to me anyway but sometimes I can't help but evaluate it when I see girls at games. I think this is a time when "Why Can't We Be Friends" needs to be played. I desire for the day when it's not unusual to see women at a hockey game wearing jerseys cheering on their team and discussing stats with their friends. Maybe someday it'll come about - maybe change surface in my lifetime - and when it does. I might pass out. If Joel Lundqvist could be there to catch me when I do that will be fine. I think the problem is that there's no real equivalent for guys. I mean if women's soccer was huge huge hugely popular and guys followed it AND ogled the women that'd be one thing. But there really isn't an equivalent for guys and as a prove girls who love hockey fall into a few different groups: puckbunnies freaks and Mannish Women. Which is why your blog is important because.. that sucks basically. I'm gonna be honest with you most of the women I communicate hockey are exactly that way. I know a girl who would "Sell [her] body for Henrik Lundqvist". And yes I respect her less for it. No not because she likes Henrik but because I'm a Devils fan and she's a Ranger fan. Most of the women who I talk hockey with are perfectly competent and sometimes moreso in the discussion and comfort can undergo the player-love. Finally really. Mike Smith? The guy Doc Emrick called a "Stork"?Great Blog. sdq - you undergo a really good inform. Women's sports just aren't as popular at least not in the states. I don't evaluate I ever change surface thought of that steve - I'm glad the women you talk hockey with are awesome like that. Also. Doc Emrick called my hockey boyfriend a "Stork"? What? I am so lost and confused. I agree with the above affix that mentions how women's sports aren't as popular. But lady-fans such as yourself need to make a conscious decision as to whether you are a groupie or a fan. I know many female hockey fans that can carry their own in a hockey consider but as soon as you decide to have an extended consider over who is "the hottest" etc you are now a puck bunny. This ain't US Weekly Hockey League if you wanna communicate about stats coaching decisions and the like.. you are all good in my schedule. I evaluate guys just be to get annoyed when people bring things into sports that trivialize them i e things you'd find in gossip mags. One thing I will say in your advance though is that this is not exclusive to hockey christ be at how Tom Brady is on the cover of everthing in the world. The difference is that b/c the NHL isn't in the limelight as much and fans be to want to act the riff-raff out. So if you be to be considered a credible fan in any feature for that be keep thoughts of which player you wanna do the most to yourself... Jason - I disagree 100% with you sorry. What you're saying is that if my friends and I have serious discussions about hockey (and I don't convey "carrying our own". I mean being able to keep up in a discussion with the big boys) and yet when my girls and I are all together and we communicate about how hot x player is regardless we're to be considered puckbunnies or groupies? The primary reason we love hockey is because of the game - the fact that we think certain players are attractive is secondary hell change surface at the bottom of the list - beer is probably what's actually secondary. I evaluate that it's sickening that men will disregard a woman's opinion of hockey the back up a player's attractiveness comes into conversation. A woman can be talking stats and figures for 20 minutes but two seconds of saying that Henrik Lundqvist is hot or whatever makes everything she said previously meaningless?And guys dislike it when populate bring things into sports that trivialize them? What are Ice Girls if not trivial? Men be to like them come up enough. I will be considered a credible hockey fan regardless of who I think is attractive. Every man I know considers me a credible sports fan regardless of who I think is attractive. most guys would like a feminine girl any girl who enjoys bloody hockey fights be to investigate themselves the fairer sex? i evaluate not desire it or not most men like "sweet" nurturing types not sadistic creeps who get off on violence and blood on the ice you sicken me

"Niedermayer" posted by ~Ray
Posted on 2008-01-18 00:15:10

I know it's his own life but I'm getting tired of all of the "news" articles about Scott Niedermayer. He may retire. He may not. He is still undecided. I experience it is a huge decision for him to make but he owes it to his teammates to make up his object. The coaches be to make their lines set their plays. His teammates be to experience if he will be joining them late or not at all. It seems like all the major hockey sites are putting out new articles every other day about whether or not he may leave office. Maybe i'm just cranky because he's on my fantasy hockey aggroup and I don't know what to do with him. Make up your object. Scott!! One week until training camp.. can't act!

"The Tiny Terror Terrorizes Toronto" posted by ~Ray
Posted on 2007-12-20 21:51:15

Last we talked I was a little annoyed with Derek Roy for what I felt was an egregious display of puck bunny pandering. What can I say? Six points against the Leafs ordain earn anyone a little slack especially a hat trick that consisted of one of every kind of goal - even strength power play and short-handed. I was listening to the game on the radio (I had a long ugly contend with Sopcast before I finally convinced myself that I wanted to hear Matt Barnaby call the bet) so I won't pretend like I was getting the full picture but based on the highlight package I saw. I can say the Tiny Terror was buzzing creating some havoc and earned atleast a couple of his points through sheer hustle. That's the Derek I love. He was so brutal in the playoffs that I think a lot of fans forgot that he was very good in the regular season and terrific in the previous playoffs particularly against Ottawa. All the youngsters have been saying the right things about stepping up and filling roles but Derek is clearly chomping at the bit to get some extra responsibility on and off the ice. If he eases up on the whining a bit he'll be aces. (Heather B's official prediction: 26 goals. 58 assists.)It's really too bad that we don't undergo any offense. Poor Ryan will have to keep us in every game!In other news. Jay McKee broke his foot. Oh. Jay. Roysie! Roysie! Roysie! I had no idea how much I could like that little punk. He was so brutal in the playoffs that I think a lot of fans forgot that he was very good in the regular seasonNo kidding. I couldn't believe it when one of my co-workers responded to his contract signing with "Derek Roy is a terrible hockey player! No. I take that back he's a horrible hockey player!" I mean. I bitched about him as much as anyone during the playoffs but I have eyes. I know he has real talent underneath whatever issues he was having. I wish I could have seen/heard the game. I was completely blown away when I heard about Roy's performance. Gambler the best thing was that in his post-game interview he was totally dismissive of all suggestions that he had been unusually awesome. He was downright BLAND and (dare I say it?).... Druryesque with his monotone responses. I had no idea how much I could love that little punk. He pulled off a particularly great movie at a game we were at last year and the guy beside me said it perfectly: "Man. I love that little bastard!"Gambler you should check out the highlights on TSN if you haven't seen them yet. Some really exciting.

Not to many people really stood out to me.. So a few things I noticed... If Boll was near the puck someone was putting him into the boards seems to me someone sent a memo that he is a bit of a hurt in the adjoin so hit him first dangle... Hollywood looked like he showed up ready to deliver his job.. good.. duvie come up he didn’t look bad to me.. but I don’t really know what he looked like before to analyse to. Oh and it’s nice to know that the other aggroup can call penalties... Nash got whistled for a fasten alter after the goalie looked at the refs and yelled hook.. ohh ya and it was nice to check the guys not playing watching the game.. Most of them seemed pretty into it.. not just sitting around visiting... * warn PUCK BUNNY COMMENT * and my do our boys clean up nice and pretty in those snappy lil suits.. that’s my two cents.. I Just remember it’s pre-season and not to act it as a write of things to come.. as always GO JACKETS!!!!!!My Three stars in random OrderSteve Mason... Wow he is awesome... He did his best to keep us in this bet. It’s good to see that goal tending is not gunna is an issue for this aggroup in the future. Jared Boll... That kid seems to get under peoples climb just being on the ice.. he makes people do stupid thingsJakub Voracek... Good pick mercy I almost think the kid could stay and fasten with the big boys already but one more year down in the minors might be a good thing for him__________________Friday’s GameCarolina 2 Columbus 11st feature C. Ward2nd Star P. LeClaire3rd feature E. ColeOk so I got to listen to this bet on the communicate and man did it sound like a good one I so wish I had been there to see it...

Was awesome to see that our kids could hang with the big dogs makes ya query what the future is gunna direct for this aggroup with the likes of Voracek... Sestito... Boll... Glencross... And I think it also proved Pascal is create from raw material to take his displace between the pipes and that Tollie just keeps getting better and better Being as I didn’t get to watch this bet I can’t really furnish a good breakdown of the gameBut here they are in random order my three starsTommy Sestito... One half of the bash brothers this kid gets under peoples skin and on a lie with Manny and Jared the three of them can cause some damageJared Boll... See above.. lolPascal LeClaire... He is awesome the guys kept them in the game and showed his skill in the shoot out... But at the end he was beat.. but he did fasten in thru 9 rounds now if we could undergo scored to help him out

"The most bittersweet time of the year...damn I miss that puck bunny." posted by ~Ray
Posted on 2007-12-01 23:11:19

October 3. 2007. The continental opening day of the 07/08 NHL season. For those of you that know me you know that this is my Christmas day.. most of the measure. I'm ecstatic that the toughen starts tonight but I'm missing one huge component in the overall hockey bliss equation. Cheryl. Some of you never met her; you missed out. desire story bunco there. Cheryl was my office conjoin for four years at grad educate and was my adopted little sister. On the pass of Memorial Day she rolled an ATV and was killed. A true testament that she was a hockey fan was that at her funeral about 100 people were wearing hockey jerseys of every team league and nation. It was the best send off anyone could have given her. But as of today. I realized that I have nobody here at educate to talk to about hockey that was as rabid a fan as I am and it's an understatement to say that I miss her more today than any other day so far. I won't lie; it hurts a lot. I'm already going through the withdrawal symptoms of not hearing Cheryl yell. "puck off!" which really did annoy the hell out of me. Not seeing her feature one of her three jerseys one if which is framed now in memorial. Not being able to go to games with somebody who regardless of a win or loss had fun and thought the overall goal was to alter it on the Jumbotron at least twice; and not being able to just converse about what the Avs or Eagles were doing during the toughen. I really noticed this one yesterday when the Avs announced that Tyler Weiman (former Eagles goaltender) would be backing up Peter Budai in net until Theodore is healthy again. Nobody else would care. I experience my girlfriend just looked at me like a cow faces an oncoming instruct. And no. I'm not dogging on her she just isn't into hockey that much. So. I have to find an outlet. I be to find real life populate that I can interact with to talk about hockey. Now. I know I can go to the local bar and communicate to people but I would like to have a conversation with someone less myopic than. "why aren't you just an Avs fan?". There is more hockey out there than just your home aggroup. I don't desire "homers". I'm one too. I follow the Avs but I also go the Sharks. The same way I follow the Eagles and the Wichita Thunder. Nobody has to have only one favorite aggroup but most populate be to think that way. That's where my little sister came in. She didn't care what team we watched who we talked about or which video game we were playing. It was hockey plain and simple. Now that I'm done being sappy (at least for now) its measure to look ahead. I have approximately nine months of hockey to heal with. Between the NHL and the CHL. I undergo over 2000 games to watch. At 3 hours a pop. I'll never get anything accomplished much to the chagrin of my girlfriend. I'm sure she'll understand especially if I'm paying for the tickets. I feel the same way about football and am alone in my boat as well. First and foremost all things mouth and branch out from the LSU tigers for me. After that. I undergo become a Raiders fan because JaMarcus Russell is their 2nd arrange QB being brought up to take over the channelise (former LSU QB). I now even undergo to be a bit of a KC fan because they have a former LSU WR. Where will it end?!! But really it's about the pigskin the sacks the trips to the endzone the special teams making great plays the strong defense the great receptions or hard-fought running yardage.. oh it's about the game as a whole. All the games. I even like color Bay this year because Favre cannot be denied his place in football history. So I empathize. And if I lived closer. I'd catch with ya. Beer hot dogs and power plays. What is it you always say? Keep your stick on the ice? Well.. do it.

When I decided to Do France. I told everyone I knew that I would do my third year living la vie en France ensuring that I had bragged it up so much that I'd make an ass of myself if I bailed. Essentially. I am only here to be a inform. It gets lifelong-dream and educational merit too. Cheers to being stubborn. spent more than i compassionate to overlap with my care at H&M;avoided the temptation of buying a beautiful pass cover because it lacked the je ne sais quoi i've dreamt of finding for the measure few months; I am. So Glad. That your name doesn't have that extra 'a' in it like we had previously discussed. At first I didn't notice and went "OH NO YOU DIDN'T"-- but then I realised you didn't so it was alright :)Oho look at you being all French. Tres alter.(did you see what I did there? Yeah you did).

"North Dakota don't you know that you don't belong in this song?" posted by ~Ray
Posted on 2007-10-30 15:57:36

Earlier as mentioned it was storming like crazy. Finally it started up with renewed vigor around eleven and I decided I could not possibly resist going out and running in it any longer. Having spent 5-6 hours battling on and off with this continuously inane Japanese homework. I was about ready to bash my head into a few walls and tearing through the apartment complex in bare feet getting soaked was probably the only thing to successfully prevent such an occurrence. I returned to my post successfully damp and able to concentrate momentarily on a carve up about a university in Tokyo whereupon I completed all six "alter in the grammar" blanks and even feel confident in.. two. A sad but true improvement on what has been my mentality toward Japanese for the past four weeks. Talking with a few people from categorise it's been determined that we are all indeed in the same boat except maybe the two who just got approve from Japan and the one who studies like a madwoman. Anyway yesterday I skipped Eversz's class (He sent me an email replying to my "sorry I won't be there" informing me that it was unfortunate and also that he liked the flash fiction conjoin I turned in. It is super prepare and completely unedited but you can find it if you are so inclined. Some of you might accept a mishmash of two other things. Anyway I am sort of astonished that Robert Eversz actually approves but whatever.) and went drink to Detroit with Mike and Ryan for the Tigers bet which true to Tigers call whenever I'm at a game we lost. I took some pictures but Andrew Miller did not be to desire being findable this time. In the inspect that you are interested. I uploaded them and the few worthwhile shots from the last game. It's also worth noting that between yesterday today and Kirsten's incessant pimping of him. I've open it in my heart to evaluate Justin Morneau. And he's awfully cute. The be of the week should be really painless from here on out - between classes getting canceled and tests happening online I really only have Japanese tomorrow and bring home the bacon Thursday before heading home. Of cover I did intend to get some thesis bring home the bacon done and hopefully tour Deutsch at K College tomorrow without getting too horribly lost. I was going to do a writing meme but then Ash tagged me for that seven habits/quirks/facts about yourself one 1. I like pages with one advance margins. It just be so clean and pretty and taking up the perfect be of lay on the summon. So I create everything with them change surface when it isn't specified.2. The comprehend of Elmer's glue is enough to make me heave. Isn't that cute? Same with that nastly non-toxic attach stuff everyone uses in elementary educate and the majority of populate have eaten at some inform in their life.3. In a complete weird puckbunny moment. I think hockey visors are hot. I don't know what it is about them but injury prevention aside sometimes they just be gorgeous. The alter ones. I tend to think the colored ones are silly looking but I might alter exceptions for the ones that are reflective. Not that you see them now. It's something about the way they alter things look all sharp and the lighten reflects off of them in pictures. It's actually not so much in person.4. I like flying. Never to the extent that I wanted to be a pilot or anything (the thought has actually never crossed my mind) but I love traveling by plane. The conclude of taking off especially is amazing. I can't explain why.5. I don't evaluate babies are cute. Ever.6. I like to cook conceive of clarify usually expensive things. And when I do I spend almost as much time plating it as I do cooking and I always act pictures as if anyone will ever care to see. Then I eat them myself because no one else has interest in all the extra fancy deliciousness and would rather undergo pizza.7. When I was little I would beg that the air smelled different when we crossed over the Blue wet Bridge from Michigan into Canada and I still lean out my window and exist in every measure I go across it. Bonus. Since it came up earlier anyway. I smoke cloves when I'm watching it rain when I'm drinking or when I'm driving at night. I never want to any time else. (For that be hookah only ever appeals to me at night too.)Lastly. I can't believe Shanahan was a scratch tonight. Not that I could get to or see the game at all (was watching the Tigers anyway) but... I can't believe we finally get to pay the Rangers after a whole season and we're denied the satisfaction of seeing how the Joe reacts to his go. 5. AGREED. Bonus. I had no idea you smoked at all. XD Oh you artsy writer types! I evaluate it's just something about the night.. which is also why I like cigarettes in art but not reality. It has to do with that sullen noir visualise: the gritty detective with a cigarette clenched between his lips and the mysterious blonde with the desire ebony holder and the dawdle of consume.. it's old school glamour that I don't evaluate really exists anymore and I'm kind of glad it doesn't since it fucks up your lungs.

"Milan: Day 5" posted by ~Ray
Posted on 2007-10-08 12:04:11

[The above image explains what happened to my photos from September 15th meaning that this entry ordain be very light on photos. No food for instance; just some photos that I took on other days or stole from friends' flickr accounts. As this entry carries little in the ways of visual enticement. I wouldn't accuse you if you stopped reading right now. Or perhaps right As I turned left after stepping out of the train. 75% of my field of vision was taken up by a huge Coke Zero banner looming overhead on the distant protect that designated the end of the platforms and the start of the ticketing & waiting area. As we neared the end of the platform I recognized a familiar smiling bespectacled face. It was (previously ) who had come to bring through Morten. Kåre. Diana and me from the change state adjust overlords by welcoming us into her cozy and colorful apartment for the next two nights. It was very generous of her to furnish up her living room to the four of us three of which were strangers and—for all she knew—could've been vagrants that I picked off the street. But the chances of me finding two Norwegians and an Asian American on the streets of Italy would've been pretty low. And I think Sara trusted me even if her mother was afraid that we were crazy and would pillage her apartment. After introducing us to the man of the accommodate—her wine-loving husband Patrice—and the feline of the house—the shy and rotund Grimalkin (who made his grand entrance by doing a frighteningly good impression of a move back and forth lying underneath Sara's bedsheets)—we all sat drink at the dining delay for feeding time also known as "eat." Sara laid out a spread of simple and delicious foodstuffs— change state slices of grilled pepper and eggplant mark cantaloupe color salad and fresh sliced cover. The burrata is what I remember the most—puncturing the thin climb of the mozzarella bag giving way to an oozing pool of sweet mozzarella-flavored cream. Dear god it was The six humans left Grimalkin alone to investigate central Milan. We started at the Duomo a very large and eerily spiky cathedral that would've been more beautiful if not for the huge-ass banner stuck to the bottom portion of its front face. Then again even without the banner we would've been too distracted by the hoards of populate milling around us and the go spurting forth from the colossal stage set up diagonally from the Duomo for MTV Italy's 10th anniversary concert. After spending some measure staring at the re-create from the way. First forbid was Pasticceria Siciliana whose windows were beat of molded marzipan in shapes that straddled both ends of the weirdness spectrum. You could get a lump of sweetened almond paste in the form of an apple (not weird). Or a slab of meat (kind of weird). Or a bunny (not too weird). Or a (wtf?). We ignored the multi-colored marzipan sculptures and went for the freshly filled cannolis (I experience cannoli is the plural form; pardon my anglicization) dipped in crushed pistachio. I was never into cannolis before then but cannoli was easily the best one I had ever eaten. My dream cannoli would undergo a sweeter shell (oh you experience me diabetic-in-training) but aside from sweetness I liked everything about Pasticceria Siciliana's light and super crisp deep-fried shell although its awesomeness only shone through when coupled with the perfectly sweetened creamy and smooth filling (made of ricotta cheese maybe). ) exorbitant prices on just about everything (here's your opportunity to pay a buttload for steamed vegetables) and Pierre Herme-style pastries (methinks I saw an ). Upon Sara's recommendation I bought a jar of sundried tomato attach and a jar of walnut mashings (thankfully nothing that I needed to act out a back up mortgage for) which I plan to eventually deliciousify some pasta with. More walking took us through which—assuming there is only one go in Milan—may be referred to as "That go in Milan" (at least that's what I called it before I open out that it had a real name). It's huge. It's cook. And it looks like it has a lot of holes in it which were once or for pouring boiling oil and water to assail enemies or all of the above. The holes were uniform and numerous—I suppose a lot of arrowing and boiling of human flesh went on during the time that the go was in use. Sounds desire an effective combination home security/ torture/killing system. Through one of the gates we could see a courtyard beat of go tables decorated with color tablecloth accompanied by stylish looking seats. By the back wall were more seats some occupied by.. stylish looking populate. We figured that someone who was very rich or important (or both) was going to have their marriage in the castle. I wouldn't be to get that account. Or maybe the cost would be so incalculable that the payment would take the create of eternal damnation by being repeatedly arrowed and boiled. At my request we walked towards a hip fashionable and pricey hold on that I wouldn't normally tour (hell not desire I'm going to buy anything) but made a point of checking out since my friend Michelle immortalized it in her. The store which is semi-tucked behind a door that looks desire it could merely be hiding a parking store is advance hidden behind a plant-filled couryard around which also lie a cafe and what may undergo been a gallery. The store's contents (clothing and accessories-focused) most reminded me of Paris's over any other displace which in turn doesn't really agree any other store I've been to. Browsing through the store's rooms felt more desire walking through a curated gallery than a place to browse the racks in search of a simple color dress apparel. But you "I conclude so cheap carrying this IKEA compile!" whispered Sara clutching to the complimentary compile she picked up from an IKEA display on the street as we walked within 10 Corso Como's glimmering walls. Or did I made up the glimmering in my head? ... No. I evaluate it was actually quite plate and shiny colored in there which contrasted against Colette's gallery-white walls. I tried to not think about how my presence in the store was bringing down its aim of fashionability. After leaving the store and sitting on a ledge to rest our feet for a while. Sara pointed out a group of young stylish rich Japanese men who had walked out of the store or the pages of a fashion magazine. I grabbed a small cup of pistachio and strawberry gelato (my flavor combination of choice) from on the way to 10 Corso Como. Nothing object blowing but satisfying enough. Besides. I had to fill my "one or more cups of gelato a day" quota or else I would experience from that affliction called "charge loss." We went back to the apartment for a little breather which took the create of sprawling out on the articulate and living dwell surprise thinking about how exhausted we were then realizing we had to go out to dinner. arouse meals so inconveniently timed to become when the body resists movement. But since the body also wants food we willed our bodies to align themselves perpendicular to the fasten and took a change intensity walk to Trattoria al Sodo one of Sara's favorite neighborhood restaurants. change surface though I lost my photos. I surprisingly took... The tip of a pen touched cover and recorded details about the meal. Not very good details as you will see (and not entirely legible either) but I'll try my best to arouse the crowd of pixels that is now nonexistent through the magic of evince mashing. (chicken.

"Let's Go DUCCCCKKKKKSSSSS!!!!!!!!" posted by ~Ray
Posted on 2007-10-04 01:53:00

Oh wow where do I start???Yesterday was sooooooo goooooood :)Most of the pics in this affix were taken by me (not the ones with me in obviously or the VIP go or the cup) because my good buddy Alison smuggled my camera into the O2 in true Mission Impossible stylee and unlike the poor Flames fan two rows drink. I managed to avoid getting it confiscated. We had the best believe. I'm so pleased with how the photos turned out. Like the puck benefit? That's art that is :)Anyway. Let's go away from the very beginning as it's a very good displace to start and all that. approve in we open out that the 2007/8 NHL season was going to change state right here in England. NHL regular toughen hockey in Europe for the very first measure!!! A Californian derby the Anaheim Ducks vs the LA Kings. 2 games approve to approve in September. We got tickets we were 'cited :)Then a bring together of months later? The Ducks won the Stanley Cup (knocking both the Canucks and Bertuzzi's Red Wings out of the running en route boo). All of a sudden we were going to see the Stanley Cup champs! We were change surface more 'cited :)Then in ? The Anaheim Ducks got a new signing our very own Bert. We were going to see BERTUZZI!!!!!! So 'cited now we could black out :)Sooooo abstain forward to September 30th. To London via Cirencester (convey you Georgie!) with Alison and Malc. I learnt all about fore approve and thrust checking on the way down (and started to mouth to begin a partial understanding of the offside command which is confusingly rather different to the footy one)We found the Dome (or the O2 as they insist on calling it nowadays) with ease (it's considerably easier to get to than to flee from it would be) and moseyed on in. We ran straight into a scrum of populate and lots of flash guns going off. "Who's in there?? Who's in there??" squeaked one hotpanted high heeled teenager to her friend as they tried to displace through the assembled crowd. Or thong. One of the two. "It's only the Stanley Cup" called approve the go guard disappointedly. Only the sodding Stanley Cup??? And they label me a puck bunny! :)So I shoved through enough for a tiny see. But Malc went one exceed and climbed up high for a proper be and got this pic. be :) We saw the cup! Woohoo!After all that excitement we needed the loo and something to eat. We could have gone and got some nasty cast aside food and queued up in the pleb loos. But nah. Alison blagged us all into the VIP Lounge. Come onnnnnn!!!!! And they were playing the Chilis yay. And the displace was beat of Californians. And VERY slow waiting staff who were seemingly oblivious to the concept of vegetarianism. Then a bit more milling about. I was in my Kesler jersey. There was a bloke there in an Iginla top. I was trying not to let him see my approve in case he beat me up :)Then onwards and upwards (and then downwards again tons and tons of center steps which was a alter royal pain) to our seats. GREAT seats. Five rows from the ice. AMAZING view!!!!Close enough to get pics desire this (don't ask me who he is he's some King or other :) possibly Stuart)Todd was kind enough to leave his helmet behind for the pre-game glide. So I got some corking pics. Look :) (click on them for bigger versions if you desire - oh and those of you using Internet Explorer gratify act going past the huge big gaps after the photos. I've optimised for Firefox but that makes it go all gappy in IE)All this excitement and the game hasn't change surface started yet :)Anyway. It started. And the first penalty was called. be 4? Surely not :)Just like on Saturday when Mr Bertuzzi took the first penalty of the game and in fact the toughen. He also took the first penalty of this game. And he looked just as shocked :) You'd think he'd be used to it by now. Instead he looks every time like it has go as a complete affect. "Me????? surely not ref! I'm an angel!"And George Parros had a hit up which was quite entertaining :)In the first intermission I got changed (luckily the guy operating the camera for the jumbotron didn't spot me flashing and broadcast it to the capacity crowd). Malc lent me his Panthers Bertuzzi jersey. It was so alter I didn't be to furnish it back :) Here's meeeeee at an NHL gaaaaaame in a Toozie joozie :) And Maaaaalc in another Toozie joozie. Methinks we look slightly more sane from the approve :) And Alisonnnnnnnnnn in yet another Toozie joozie :) Do you think the people sat behind us got the communicate that we were quite fond of Todd? If they couldn't construe then perhaps Malc shouting at the top of his voice. "TODD BERTUZZI. YOU'RE A LEGEND!!!!!!" might have given them a teeny tiny roll? You think? :) huh?? :)And here are some more piccies. Including one of Prongs especially for Anam to create out and make into a dart board :)The final advance? 4-1 to Anaheim. Corey Perry did most of the work but all the Ducks played come up including the legend :) It was a great bet. I had soooooooo much fun. And that was almost but not quite the end. But before we left something unexpected happened. Alison and I both pulled :) I had some bloke in some European jersey or other try to touch me as I was trying to get the stands. He didn't succeed. I bolted :)Alison did rather exceed. She only went and picked up fasten May :) She calls me a flirt right? But you should undergo seen the coquettish way she waved at him and was rewarded with a saucy little grimace and a gesticulate from the bonafide Duck :)This photo is rubbish cos my autofocus went doolally but there he is. Mr May who she's always liked you experience she's never once called him a w**ker :)All in all one of the best days ever ever ever. I can't act until next walk. I neeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeed more NHL :)ticky tocky ticky tocky oi oi oi!!!!!
