Besides, claiming anything Special Forces -- beyond your ongoing desperate attempt to make a living off your son -- maintains bearing on how the military is trained or what is accepted is akin to saying you know the United States due to the behavior of an isolationist camp in Northern Idaho.

You continue to appear foolish.

If you're going to "drop the hammer" on me, perhaps you should use a blunt instrument other than your intellect. At the moment, you're failing miserably.

Still trying to make those Junior High School taunts of yours work on me huh Zeke?

Do you mean arguments for which you possess no retort save for claiming your son offers you any validity?

I guess so.

Good thing too, if you did you might get kicked out of the NFL for a while.

Ditto. Although I feel a bit the hypocrite for continuing my jonesing for hockey.

Not much of a hockey fan but it tickles me that the Stanley Cup resides in a place that sees no snow and the most popular tree is a palm.

Ever been to a live game?

I know you're asking Bob...but yes, quite a few. Mostly in the old barn when I was a pup. I don't like the new place much. It's not a hockey game (or a Who concert) unless you're ears are ringing so bad when you leave that you're not hearing right for a day or so. When I was a kid, my organ teacher was an old guy named Al Melgard. Probably a smidge younger than I am now. Anyway, the organ was set up on the east side of the building, and hung right over the east goal when the place was set up for hockey. So we'd get standing room tickets and head over to Al's set-up. He had 8 or 10 folding chairs along the rail for friends, family, students, etc. It was a spectacular spot to watch a game.



It's a lousy picture but it's the only one I could find.

Yup, a Kings game long ago. I've even tried to skate with hockey skates. It weren't pretty until I figgered out that stopping involved schussing.

Just don't schuss all over yourself.
