Re: Rep Retirement Lodge #156: The Ultimate Showdown
Lomg day at the conference today. Finished up the training class around noon, then after lunch, the keynote addresses started in a ballroom with about 4000 people. Some really great speeches, leading up to the main keynote - Michael J. Fox. He was great. I know he would never want people feeling sorry for him, and honestly, the guy has continued to work successfully more than 20 years after his Parkinsons diagnosis, but you really could tell he was struggling a bit with his speech. That said, it was funny, heartfelt, truly inspiring. I was reminded of Travis Roy - both of these guys have been dealy sucky hands in life and are doing somethng special with it.
He brought up a story about when he really started to hit it big and people wanted to meet him. He was invited to play in a charity hockey tournament in Boston at the Garden (the original one) - it was Cam Neely's tournament. He met Bobby Orr and was in awe but was more flabbergasted when Bobby Orr wanted to meet him. They were playing hockey and he stole the puck from Orr and wound up scoring and he was like "I have no idea what happened or what people said to me...." It was pretty amusing. They did a brief Q&A and if I got picked (which was never gonna happen, because did I mention that there were 4000 there?) I wanted to ask him if he was up to speed with regards to the lockout and what were his thoughts.
Went to a networking reception with free alcohol and food, then up to the hotel bar with the bunch of folks from my company. Hung out there, got some more snacks. One of the conference events was a pub crawl tonight. I chose not to go, as I need to pack tonight. Got back to my hotel and they had these awesome cupcakes. So here I sit in my jammies, half packed, with this huge chocolate cupcake and bottle of water. Tomorrow there are sessions all day plus a breakfast that starts at 7:30am. Too early!! Thank God the baseball game is on as I really do not care to watch the debate.

Re: Rep Retirement Lodge #156: The Ultimate Showdown
Little g has an appointment this Friday with an orthopedic surgeon in cityslickerville. I hope it's determined that surgery is not required but one of the potential outcomes of the appointment is that little g will need to have a very evasive hip surgery sooner or later. I am starting to get nervous. It is what it is but f an a it's just not right/fair.
If you are so inclined please send postive thoughts our way.

Re: Rep Retirement Lodge #156: The Ultimate Showdown
hope it works out man, but tell lil g that worst comes to worst, he'll get pampered by hot nurses non-stop!!!

ok, here's the dream mookie had.
brent was up in a tree and morphed/altered/changed into a deer. not a freak half man/half elf thingy, but a big buck - but not a lot of work on top (go figure). anyhow, when he was 'brent' he had sneakers and such, but as a deer he had hoofs and slipped. so deer brent is falling and breaking tree limbs and after a bit impales himself on a branch. he's stuck and all. hanging in the tree.
all of a sudden this hummer drives up and stops under the tree. dl jumps out and climbs on the hood, moves up to atop the cabin and frees brent. they are now on the ground, dl sitting and holding deer brent. deer brent is braying or whatever deer do when they talk. he's looking up at dl while he has this huge hole in him where the tree branch broke the fur/skin whatnot and bleeding. deer brent is braying and dl is answerin, "yeah, yeah. i know. it's ok." deer brent is starting to change back to brent, but dl tells him 'not yet! wait". deer brent brays back and dl pulls out this zippo and strikes a flame that would make jeff conway in 'Grease' blush. dl points the flame to deer brent's hole and the fur and skin start burning, but whatever dl is doing it is stopping the bleeding. smells pretty bad, all this fur burning too.
at this point mookie notices LWB and she's yelling "look at him!". she is going back and forth looking at deer brent and dl so i'm not sure who she's talking about. thought now mr quizmire shows up and he starts "yeah, look at him!"... be he is staring at brent. so mookie knows who mr quiz's talking about.
at this point mookie wakes up. the end.
mookie hasn't figured out what that all means.

That's not even accurate. If brent turned into a deer I'd shoot his ***.

Good Lord. My dreams weren't even close to this. All I had was Quiz, Legal and I sitting in my church with the nun from the Blues Brothers telling us we were going to hell, and Legal wouldn't talk to me. The second dream was mostly me whispering to Scarlet that she needed a margarita. The third one was where Brent and I were partying in my parents' garage, then Flashy lighting things on fire in my old bedroom while Diva was screaming at him to stop. Seems like there was another one, but I don't remember.
Haven't had a USCHO dream in a while, but that's fine with me.
