USCHO Poster Poll: '19-'20

Re: USCHO Poster Poll: '19-'20

I think that this is some diabolic plot of yours designed to have us all dreaming up conspiracy theories regarding, "What happened to '9'???"
LOL look man I am VERY tired hahaha

I should omit the number 9 in everything I do this year just out of spite... that's hilarious
 
Re: USCHO Poster Poll: '19-'20

Practice, practice and practice....

yes, in addition, with experience comes the knowledge of when and how to use it
whatever a players speed is as a freshman, by the time they are seniors they may appear to be faster simply for that reason despite no increase in actual speed

but TA is correct, I am just yanking chains, they are no faster, in fact probably slower than last year
watching them is like watching a glacier
I'm sure Colgate would agree

Ha! The truth comes out. Imagine if your players weren't so slow you'd have won by double digits.

How did you remember that?

Trying to work some of my favorites bands in.....For MN I prefer Winger's "Head For A Heartbreak". :)
BC's could be Dokken's "Alone Again" but your choice is very good.
I can't find spot for a White Lion tune at the moment, but I should probably get back to work.

(TOTALLY unrelated to hockey, so feel free to skip over; I thought Tim might be interested.)

When I moved to Los Angeles in the spring of 1983, I spent the first year or so living with a friend from high school in the back house on a two house lot in Redondo Beach. In the front house was a woman and her young daughter. The woman worked various jobs to make ends meet - waitress, etc, even as a stripper in a local club. (No, it wasn't a particularly 'bad' neighborhood.) And on occasion, she would have people over for parties, etc., sometimes late into the night and sometimes LOUD into the night, which was mildly annoying if we in the back house had to work in the morning. Loud because some of them were in a band that played in local South Bay clubs. I'm 'burying' the obvious lead; the band was Dokken. At that point they were somewhat known locally, but not yet known nationally? I was and am not at all a 'hair band' fan, so the name meant nothing to me at the time. IIRC, sometimes one or more of the band members were there baby-sitting the daughter. No idea who was who, don't remember the woman's name, and I just looked on Google street view and as best I can tell, the houses aren't there anymore. (Huntington Lane, a couple houses east of Flagler St, north side of street.)

You live in southern CA for any length of time, you have 'everyday' encounters with people of some level of fame or another. I have dozens of such exciting stories. :-)

Cool story. 1981 was the release of their first album, in 83 they released the video for "Breaking The Chains", (an all time favorite of mine) so at that point they hadn't cracked the bigtime yet. 1984's Tooth & Nail album propelled them to stardom. I didn't really latch onto to them until 85, then worked my way backwards. I don't like that they get labeled a hair band because they were big before the big hair came into vogue.

I wouldn't mind hearing some more of your bump intos with the famous, very good reading.
