The Kings are going to faceoff against the NY Rangers. Since both teams are riding win streaks (4 and 5 game), this should be a good test of the Kings mettle. I predict a 3-2 SO win for the Kings.

4-1 and On Top of the World
So, the King are finally on top of the NHL world today after finishing off the NYIslanders in an Columbus Day matinee. So far, so good.
Loss in Opener
Ok, so the Kings lost the opener but they are ahead 1-0 in their second game. Go Kings Go.
Oh Atlanta
So, we are off the Atlanta for the Association for Play Therapy conference. Colin is coming with and we should get some more pictures of him in unusual places. I need to publish some of those.
We are in a holding pattern for the Kings regular season. We are missing a couple of games and will have to catching them on the road. Anyone know where a good hockey bar is in Atlanta?
I’m hoping that we can find the game somewhere.
The Season Begins
Pre-season games done and Frozen Fury XII a distance winning memory. Oct 3rd is the start of the new season and the Kings look good. Very good.
And So It Begins
Yesterday, we took the day off and went down to the Toyota Sports Center to watch the Kings Rookies and the Coyotes Rookies battle in a game. The Kings won 4-0 (they lost 6-1 the day before). This is a sort pre-pre-season game. Schenn did well, scoring twice, and setting his teammates on a couple of neat passes.
Tuesday is the first game with veterans at the Staples Center. Go Kings!
iTunes vs. iPhoto
Why can’t iTunes have the same type of good matching for albums that iPhoto uses to match faces?
Lots of Stuff
First, I read with a little surprise that Kodachrome has faded to black. There will be no more Kodachrome processing in the US. See: http://online.wsj.com/article/SB124631829284470853.html
We are back from the humidity hell that was Mississippi. Colin scented for Annette about 3 times a day and was spot on. The most convincing alert was at the hotel when he alert her and we both thought that she was ok. Annette tested and it turned out that she was having a low. Good work, Colin!
I will be putting together a little video of his exploits in the coming days.
Colin Scented!
Colin provided an alert for Annette today after about 30 minutes of training. Go Colin Go. Here’s a video of a kid in our class who has an alert dog:
