So, the Kings won tonight. They outplayed the Panthers for most of the game but only scored 2 goals in the first two periods. So, when the Panthers scored 2 minutes into the third, there were thoughts of a loss. Fortunately, another goal for both teams in the 3rd and the Kings win.
Bailey's Buddies
So, the Kings have a Bailey’s Buddies club for the young hockey fans. I joined it and, at the time, my wife made fun of me. Now, once we got the Bailey bobble head, the lunch box, 3 free tickets, and other trinkets, she wants one. I’ll post pictures later.
This week the Price is Right episode that had the Kings on (and Annette and I attended) was on. There’s a brief shot of me and Annette when one of the first 4 contestants comes on down. We are in the hockey Jerseys.
Tonight is game 4 of the 7 game home stand. Hope the Kings can beat the Panthers.
New Beginnings
It seems only appropriate with the election and the new beginning that President Obama seems to bring that that I reactivate the blog. Expect lots of hockey, some politics, and some random thoughts about life. Second thoughts.
The Internet, 1977
Kinda of a cool image from 1977 showing the Internet.
Please Do This (Approved by Bob Barker)
Don't Taz Me Bro
Seems that tasers aren’t as benign as people think. See this CBC article.
Burning down the House
Interesting article about hacking an internet connected coffee pot. I love the closing line about a hacker being able to turn on an internet connected oven and burning down the house.
Blue Tooth Gun
Here’s a guy with too much time on his hands and not enough common sense.
Barack Humor
Seems to be a dearth of Barack humor out there. The LA Times tried to address that in an article. My favorite part:
He’s effete. He’s well-dressed. He eats arugula — which he buys at Whole Foods. He mocks those who use guns. He is, as we mentioned, quite thin. He may only be half-black, but he’s three-quarters gay.
30 Days
More TV shows. Set your Tivo to record 30 days. By far the most interesting 60 minutes on television in my opinion.
