In case you missed Canadian women kicking Swiss women ass yesterday, you get to see it again today... with a bonus pregnant woman tossed in! -- nm - Mop (227 lbs) Feb 16, 14:10 5
- You know, it occurs to me that a woman walking back and force on ice maybe isn't a good idea. - Mop (227 lbs) Feb 16, 14:13 3
  - because she's fat and heavy and will crack the ice? you're so mean. -- nm - Max Feb 16, 14:16
  - I heard she was the backup, so she'd only be on if someone gets injured -- nm - Beryllium Feb 16, 14:15
  - a *pregnant* woman -- nm - Mop (227 lbs) Feb 16, 14:14

- I can't decide if I need to care about this or not - cause really what is 4 more weeks? I didn't bother to see it in the theaters -- nm - Epiphany Feb 16, 14:28
- So Blockbuster can rent a title in its first 4 weeks and no one else can? -- nm - stewie Feb 16, 14:01 4
  - Well, Blockbuster had to do something when they couldn't get dvd prices raised. -- nm - the wrong element, bad guy Feb 16, 14:25
  - of course they would...every blockbuster in our county but 1 way up north closed. -- nm - Will Hunting Feb 16, 14:25
  - I wouldn't be at all surprised to see a similar deal worked out with BB soon. -- nm - Ender Feb 16, 14:06 1
    - Looks like they already have a deal in place and will have titles on the release date - stewie Feb 16, 14:16

I think Olympic hockey has two things right ... timers should count DOWN, and icing should be INSTANT. -- nm - Beryllium Feb 16, 13:51 3
- Instant icing is no-brainerish to me. By timers, you mean the clock for the periods, and the penalties? - TFox Feb 16, 14:15
- but the timer seems to go up at the one minute mark -- nm - lone canadian leafs fan Feb 16, 14:10
- Eliminate the penalty box, let em play -- nm - budice Feb 16, 13:56

i need to set this girl straight..... a girl whose uncle is a director for HOUSE, wants to be an intern *here* for the summer. - Andie Feb 16, 13:36 26
- But then they'd just call her #132 and Hugh Laurie would end up killing her in a bus crash... -- nm - Ender Feb 16, 14:07 1
  - spoils - Beryllium Feb 16, 14:10
- *i* will PA on House (seriously) -- nm - poochinski Feb 16, 13:51

      - Don't you do something in banking? -- nm - Roger More Feb 16, 14:15 4
        
        only because I wasn't crazy enough to think I could make a living as an actor and needed something to pay the bills. -- nm - znufrii Feb 16, 14:16 3
        
        this really underlines how crazy someone needs to be to think that they *can* make a living as an actor. -- nm - TFox Feb 16, 14:17 2
        
        I was busy somewhere else and couldn't post, but this is where I was going - Roger More Feb 16, 14:24
        
        I make up for it in other areas, but stil... -- nm - znufrii Feb 16, 14:18
  - i can't. if you want to work in Hollywood, only LA experience really counts for anything - poochinski Feb 16, 13:51 1
    - I'm not saying it would be a smart move, career wise... -- nm - znufrii Feb 16, 14:05

      - i totally would. - Andie Feb 16, 13:46 2
        
        She doesn't have to do your job, you just have to convince your boss that she is able to. Meanwhile you'll be sunning it up in LA, smoking fat cigars - Roger More Feb 16, 13:49 1
        
        i really should suggest it, shouldn't i? -- nm - Andie Feb 16, 13:49

Man, the NBC Olympics line-up is awesome today. Canada Curling, US Hockey, Canada Women's Curling, Canada Hockey. -- nm - Mop (227 lbs) Feb 16, 13:08 12
- I've got the hockey game on right now. For the life of me, I won't figure out what constitutes an assist and what doesn't -- nm - crash davis Feb 16, 13:10 8
  - the two previous players to touch the puck on the same team get an assist - Reagen Feb 16, 13:13 5
    - Although there seems to be a bit of wiggle room on the IM. - Subversive Feb 16, 13:23
    - I won't post spoilers, but your IM may have cleared up one mystery for me. Thanks! -- nm - crash davis Feb 16, 13:15 3
      - Sometimes assists can be shady. Like I can get an assist if I take a shot, the goalie saves it, it bounces off a d-man's skate and then you score. -- nm - Shaun Feb 16, 13:23 2
        
        I thought I saw something that was a pass that may or may not have touched a d-man. They call the goal unassisted. I thought it was assisted. - crash davis Feb 16, 13:26 1
        
        They can also update scoring changes. -- nm - Shaun Feb 16, 13:31
  - probably being the second last person to touch the puck before a goal. -- nm - peglegpete Feb 16, 13:11 1
    - On some goals, there can be two assists ... depends how the gameplay breaks down (not sure of olympic hockey allows this) -- nm - Beryllium Feb 16, 13:12
- Does it get any better tonight? -- nm - Spawn Feb 16, 13:09 2
  - I suppose that depends on Amy, no? -- nm - Mop (227 lbs) Feb 16, 13:11 1
    - she'll be busy shovelling snow. -- nm - Remlik Feb 16, 13:21
free $H....DYFAM is cashing out at $0 today and is currently priced at $1.05 -- nm - peglegpete Feb 16, 13:08
I'm thinking we could adopt hockey tactics for Halo CTF games - crash davis Feb 16, 13:07 12
- I just think it'd be nice if everyone did immediately run at the enemy for a change. -- nm - David Feb 16, 13:39 5
  - LLLLEEEEEEEEEERRROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOYY YY!!!! -- nm - znufrii Feb 16, 13:41
  - There should be a "not" in there, but it's a symbolic mistake. -- nm - David Feb 16, 13:40 3
    - How is it my fault that I expect my enemies to bow before me in fear? -- nm - Beryllium Feb 16, 13:43 1
      - you're not Joe Biden. - znufrii Feb 16, 13:45
    - yeah I gotta stop that. But sometimes it's damn fun. -- nm - Remlik Feb 16, 13:41
- I panic on D. I'm an awesome forward, though. -- nm - Mop (227 lbs) Feb 16, 13:10
- I think we should adopt curling tactics. - Beryllium Feb 16, 13:08

  - the defensemen would handle the power weapons -- nm - crash davis Feb 16, 13:09 2

      - It is like these guys are *trying* to make it easy. -- nm - Sniper Feb 16, 13:13

- I actually feel pretty bad about it. - ceregon Feb 16, 13:29 3
  - no need to. - znufrii Feb 16, 13:34
  - Your subject does not match your IM at all -- nm - Roger More Feb 16, 13:30 1
    - I feel bad, because if i knew there was going to be drama, I would have just avoided it and picked somebody else to do the work. - ceregon Feb 16, 13:45
- He's gotta be sure and it's gotta be soon and he's gotta be larger than life. -- nm - Dr.Vermin Feb 16, 13:07
- I disagree. I should be this month's Hero for continuing to put up with all of you and still gracing you with my presence. -- nm - Jim Feb 16, 13:07 1
  - Send me a picture of yourself with a curling broom and I will consider this request. -- nm - Subversive Feb 16, 13:24
- i feel bad, because the entire time i was reading the story i was waiting for the part where the guy screws him over -- nm - kare Feb 16, 13:06 4
  - You weren't the only one. Conan told me not to be cynical. I'm trying, but I doubt I can do it. - Mop (227 lbs) Feb 16, 13:10
  - I made it three lines before thinking "I bet the guy has moved into the house, and now refuses to move out" -- nm - Roger More Feb 16, 13:08 2
    - I'll admit, I skipped to the end before reading the whole thing, just to see how it turned out... -- nm - znufrii Feb 16, 13:26 1
      - I admit nothing. -- nm - Beryllium Feb 16, 13:48
Spawn.....the hardest part for me was finding the time to upgrade 4 warehouses to Lvl 22's in existings - Will Hunting Feb 16, 13:04 1
- I tend to max (or near max) three and then build a fourth on a temp basis. -- nm - Spawn Feb 16, 13:06
jim, yes, you are just such an ogre. -- nm - b. Feb 16, 13:00 1
- We haven't been in a Krewe for a few years. nm - Jim Feb 16, 13:01
gracias for the cheesecake feedback, all. :) -- nm - kare Feb 16, 12:58 7
- I think you'll be fine no matter what you choose. Cheesecake slightly edges poptarts as a perfect food. -- nm - Remlik Feb 16, 13:03 6
  - and we're going to do little side bowls of fruits so people can have a variety of topping! including blueberries! because we're going to be on a blueb - kare Feb 16, 13:05 5
    - that's a great choice. -- nm - Remlik Feb 16, 13:07 3
      - i sort of wanted a three tier cake with sloppy buttercream frosting, very imperfect, so it looked like it *tasted* good - kare Feb 16, 13:09 2
        
        The three-tier cake at our wedding was great ... chocolate on the bottom, lemon and cream in the middle, and raspberry filled on top ... -- nm - Beryllium Feb 16, 13:54
        
        no prob. let me know if you have any problems with the disc. -- nm - Remlik Feb 16, 13:18

  - That .1250... Mel? -- nm - nubby Feb 16, 13:35
- Almost as many as it's caused. -- nm - Dr.Vermin Feb 16, 12:57 2
  - This is the joke I wanted to make, but couldn't. -- nm - nubby Feb 16, 13:05 1
