Pittsburgh Penguins Tribute

Nice job Penguins who also include a link to where to donate or help in any way.

Flotsam and Jetsam

Miscellaneous thoughts and observations.

Congrats to the Penguins for winning the Stanley Cup and to the City of Pittsburgh for another championship... Is Jimmy Rollins a Hall of Famer? I'm on the fence but tending toward "NO"... Wonder how people in Cleveland feel about Pittsburgh winning another championship while they are in the midst of a 52-year championship drought... For the geeky girls in your life... First Muhammad Ali then Gordie Howe. Who's next? Arnold Palmer? Hugh Hefner? Manuel Noriega? Bet that last one caught you by surprise. When's the last time Noriega's name cam up in conversation?... One of the best selfies ever... Jesus Fish and Chips would be a good name for a band... No thanks I don't need WiFi that bad...

Stuff I found interesting or amusing and thought I'd share.

- Neil Gaiman's Trigger Warning

- Penguins perform O'Canada prior to last night's game vs Flyers. I hope the San Francisco Giants make the same gesture of support.

- Wow - Rudy Giuliani really doesn't like Charlie Crist

- Founder of the Weather Channel - Climate change is nothing but a lie. The climate is changing but for reasons we neither understand nor control. We should be studying these reasons and not asking people to wear sack-cloth and ashes.

Boston Bruins

I love that opening from Hockey Night in Canada from Game 3. Karma Police indeed! Sidney Crosby -  a sports superstar hasn't been that undressed as a whiny bitch by a Boston team since Jason Varitek smushed his glove into A-Rod's face.

Oh (I didn't come up with this saying but it encapsulates the entire series so great) - Tuukka Rask - 2 U's, 2 K's and just 2 goal allowed against the Penguins!

Go Bruins!
