More 'No More Bullying' Crap.



Watching the Stanley Cup Finals I gotta wonder what the anti-bullying people think about a good hockey game/fight?  Huh?  Huh?  Huh?

  2. Hockey wouldn't be hockey without gruesome checks, a good fight and a couple of bloody noses...and that's ladies hockey :)

    Shadowlands--how did your interview go?? And tell us about your outfit?? I hope it worked out ok...I was so worried that I have given you bad advice..

  3. Hockey is a brutal sport?

    How can anything with three periods be called a sport?

    The only difference between hockey players and ballerinas is the ballerinas got talent.

  5. Oh, Terry, I'm surprised you haven't written about gay hockey.

    Hehe...I'm such a stinker;0)

  6. I am so lost on the bullying stuff. I was gone.
    So my rule is, if Terry is for something so am I, if Larry is for it, I am against it.

    If by chance both Larry and Terry are for the same thing, I apply the Terry rule, and ignore the Larry portion of it, unless it involves something germane to Mcihigan and then I side with Larry.

  7. Sarah, Hahahahaha!

    I love it that you left me a message in Terry's combox, like I rent a room here and stop by daily to collect my mail. That's how I like to think of Abbey Roads funnily enough! One can take these kind of liberties with an imagination like mine!!

    So yeh, the interview outfit? I ended up wearing my son's black school trousers (What? I know but you would honesly have needed to see how well they fitted) they looked a treat! A white cotton broderie anglaise blouse, a long brown belted cardigan and matching shoes and handbag and a patterned brown scarf (thin polyester-ish).

    Thank you for your concerns.
    It all went very well although the box of cakes I offerd round during the 'comfort' break raised a few eyebrows, if not sugar levels. I will(might) write about it in a post on my own blog maybe.


    I used to be Goal Defence when we played the sport at school, but that's over three hundred years ago now, so I don't remember much.I remember the bullies though

  8. Joe - is that so? I just ignore everything you say...less complicated that way.

    Your previous comment excepted, of course.

  11. We have two dogs so the bylaw says we can't adopt another which is really to bad because I was looking at these two that just came into the Humane Society and they're a pair. Their names, for real now, are Larry and Terry.

  12. Shadowlands--Love the outfit!! Brown black and white really goes well together. I haven't yet perfected the fine art of scarf tying, although I usually have my work badges on a lanyard around my neck, which pretty much ruins any necklace or scarf I would like to wear. I usually keep one of those cardigans at work to put on whenthe air conditioning gets too chilly. I have the misfortune of have the cubicle located right under the vent. about half an hour after I moved in I understand why no one wanted it :)

    Since I don't have a blog I just hog Terry's combox for my personal communications....he's so sweet to let me do that...like crashing on a friend's couch :)

  13. Hi Sara,

    sorry about the name mispel...again!
    Yes, Terry is very good sub-letting his combox to us.

    I'm thinking of selling second hand furniture here next year if I can get enough prospects. Sofas would certainly go like hot cakes, we could redecorate the place infact!? Or have I gone completely off the sanity scale???

    Back to hockey, I realise the American game is totally different to English Hockey. For one, I don't think any men play it, in the UK (I may be wrong), but I'm sure the boys played rugby instead. Only women with tough shins played hockey well though, when I was a kid. I expect they're all padded out now.

  14. shadowlands, ice hockey is a totally different thing although the players wear padding; they even wear helmets now!

    When I was a kid, girls played field hockey; I don't know if they do anymore, I think soccer is much more popular as is girls ice hockey.
