Happy Father’s Day to all whom it applies to, by the way! I don’t know what I’d do without my dad. I’m sure y’all’s kids feel the same. Much love.
Same here, too. He was so sick that at the time he passed it was merciful. He was ready and at the time I was too (sort of, you're never REALLY prepared for that, just maybe not so surprised). Over time, though, the hurt has set in--I wish I had asked him about so and so, wish I'd paid more attention when he was trying to teach me sign language. I know the letters but that's all. Little things, mostly. We cleaned out his shop a few years ago and it was both sad and therapeutic. He had at least a million different screws, washers, nails etc., all separated into various jars. We also found a cheesecake pic of my mom which was kind of funny.
I'm down to meet up. although last year, i was mostly up top since tickets on a Tuesday night required selling a newborn child.Bummed we couldn’t grab a drink before you left. Much luck to you, man. We’ll have to link up on NHL again sometime. I know you said you will, but you better stay on these boards!
Next season I really would like to meet up with some folks to watch the game. None of my friends in real life even remotely feel the same way about hockey. Would be a nice release for me. Lol. Plus I’m envious of the relationships you all have developed.
Couldn't on the day of, 'cause he was out on an extended bike trip with his grandchildren.What I'm saying with this rambling spasm of emotion is, Adz is right.. if you're blessed that your father is still alive,make sure you appreciate it and him, and on more than just today.
That was more my (paternal) grandfather's thing. I don't think we ever visited there without him talking us into taking back home a radio or tape player that he'd repaired with rubber bands and bailing wire. He also was constantly replacing his car (swapping out used cars for other used cars); one of the greatest compliments I ever received from him was, when I drove him to a hospital visit one day, a week or two later he showed up with the same model car I owned.Wow. My dad had the same thing with the screws and nuts and bolts.. but he had nailed the lids of the jars to an apparatus he made the looked like a rotisserie so he could keep them overhead instead of on his workbench... I guess it was that generation's inclination not to waste anything.

What part of town do you stay in? I’m in Murfreesboro.wouldn't mind meeting up with anyone from the boards as well.

I don’t drink a whole lot, I’m at the other end of the spectrum.
But yeah man I don’t go to games too often. Ya boy is a broke ass. I mean WAY broke lol and my car is messed up so I feel ya.
Same here as in...? Sorry lolSame here. Keep cool down there. Western NY is melting right now.
That's what happens when you start over with babies when the older ones are out of the house. Grandchildren are similar--if you are "into" the game, it's hard to divert all your attention to keeping them safe but you have to. My 10 year old granddaughter is at a point where she can go to a playoff game, pay attention, knows the chants, won't ask to go home after the second period AND can respond intelligently when asked who's her favorite player and why. Happy Day! The other one has a little while, though.Unfortunately life has got in the way of me being able to make it to live games. Getting to go the games 4 and 6 of the final with my oldest last summer was a special treat but its gonna be a few years before I can start making family trips down for games again.
So. It's been an interesting end to the season, hey?
Anyone know how much is left on Lavi's contract, by the way? Asking, for a friend.

Since yesterday this site keeps logging me out--on both my home and work computer, even though I have checked the Keep Logged In box. Anyone else having this happen? I've had the "re-log in" thing happen periodically for years but this is the first time in memory that it hasn't reset for me.
Thanks!Site changed to a secure website. Need https in the url.
Best bet is log in, make a new bookmark and delete the old bookmark
I had to bookmark, exit out of the browser, fire it up again, THEN log in and have it "remember log in". So far no problems.Thanks too, I rarely look at this thread but did just to ask what Adz beat me to.
Well never mind, even with https as bookmark I still have to log in.
There's a thread about this on the main hockey page--says it'll go back to 50 after the draft.Can I no longer choose how many posts to show per page? I got logged out, too, and when I logged back in I noticed it had changed to 25 per page and I can't find any place to change it back to 50 per page.
