Holy crap! Unbelievable! We didn't even have that big of a blizzard this winter!

Here's what was we woke up to in Calgary

Dixie doesn't know what happened

And Carolynne's Matrix covered in snow (I park in the garage )

I was at work last night when this storm went down. Shut power right off for 2 1/2 hours (although the news said power was only out 45 minutes :? ). I went out in the parking lot at the storms peak, i could barely even breath (no joke). The winds were at over 100KM/HR

It was crazy windy last night! They are saying more wind today

Dave- those were great videos. What an awesome ceremony! There is some unbelievable pride in that city for the Pens. Very cool you were there. That metal ticket is awesome too.

glad you liked the videos Dave and it was definitely an awesome experience and we do have great pride in all our teams here in Pittsburgh even the Pirates.

Josh thanks and :twisted:

2008 | 2002 | 1998 | 1997 | 1955 | 1954 | 1952 | 1950 | 1943 | 1937 | 1936

2009 l 1992 l 1991

ok so maybe the Wings have a few more Cups but only 1 more than the Pens since they joined the NHL so their not that great

Yeah, that's like saying Pittsburgh has one one World Series than Detroit and Pittsburgh has played 19 more season.

MEH

I should have taken a pic during the storm! Nice shot, Bilko!

Here's mail this week

And Heyward #1 from yesterday

Love the rink de-icing shots Jesse! Very cool to see how that's done. I'm more looking forward to when you put it in. Hopefully you're back there.

 

[thefatguy]

Thanks Dave!
I wanted to see it last year, but too busy with Parks in late July when it goes in.

Anyone else watching Masters streaming? ATDHE and others are super laggy, and TSN is pathetic. I'm on a dedicated 15mbps connection (up/down) so there should be nothing wrong with the feed.

 

[thefatguy]

WTF
no posts in an hour? What, are you all working?

 

[MojoDan]

Hello eh!

 

[George_Calfas]

Sweet mini mailday, thanks to come

Hey, Jesse! I'm at the library here on base so I can catch up on the happenings. I always wondered how the clearing of an ice rink would be. Thanks for educating me!

Andrew - The "BING" reference wouldn't be related to Crosby (Not Sid) would it?

Alex - Enjoy the Sunday off. We'll still see you early in the Sunday MT as old habits are hard to break.

George - Sounds like a great weekend ahead for you. Do you instruct on these trips or just go in an advisory capacity?

Dave - The ticket in your sig is a nice keepsake from the final game event. Hold on to it so you're not looking for a replacement 40 years from now like my '69 WS ticket stub.

Dan - Way to work in the "Strange Brew" Canadian catch word!

 

[wideright]

One card mailday (from yesterday) #/225

 

[chowell3fan]

Love those chrome refracts Dave, sweet looking card

This was my 3 card mail day yesterday...quietly putting together some nice cards of this guy

 

[thefatguy]

Nice black Dave!
Since I saw how Tim holds the ball on a sat broadcast, I always try to keep my pinky out and the ring finger on the ball as lightly as I can.

And thanks Dave!

Where's your other brother, Dave?

George - Sounds like a great weekend ahead for you. Do you instruct on these trips or just go in an advisory capacity

Iam actually in the class but the prof puts a large amount of instruction on the 4 of us grads. This is the last true class I needed, some more research hours but that is ok.

 

[pghbuccos]

Jesse thanks for sharing the pics and nice Bay

Dave(w) congrats on another nice Wake

Dave(69) I will definitely keep it despite the fact that 3 more have sold today for $100 $150 and $175. not sure why people are paying that much but good for the sellers I guess.

here is the actual ticket from the game which I will probably display next to the aluminum ticket...

 

[miguelcabrera]

bought a bike 2day!

 

[thefatguy]

Hello eh!

What's up with Daniel the Manimal today?
