Red Wings are poop

It seems they certainly are this season.

I stopped watching them back when Demers was coach. After repeatedly snatching defeat out of the hands of victory I couldn't stand it any more. After that I simply never got back into the habit of following them.

Unfortunately, I think it's mainly the coach. So many fundamental mistakes. Last night, Howard let a soft game winner go in. They don't shoot enough either and they are weak in front of the net.

It's Friday! WOOHOO!

Also, how are we not at 3,000 pages, yet?

Happy Friday, hosers!

Still silly-warm out there, but after Sunday the temps will drop back down to more reasonable/seasonable ones. And I can make soup! I'm just not done with my cold-weather cooking. I haven't made an apple pie yet (only cherry). These things matter!

It's warm, here, too. Well, 45°F (7°C). But it's back to overcast and precipitating again.

There was sunshine and everything earlier.
Now it looks like rain yet again.
There isn't an escalator within 30 miles of here. So no cute pics.

Chilly here today. Supposed to get some snow this weekend. Hoping not as we have a long drive on Sunday to and from the wake. 2 hours each way - and I'm driving the shuttle...my Mom, 2 Aunts, 2 Uncles and 2 cousins. All the "I no longer drive on the highway" seniors and my cousins who are flying in and won't have a car. Once again having that 8 seater car comes back to bite me on the ***. Thankfully they are all small little skinny adults who will not be overly crowded.

Ugh, that's annoying.

@jcdeboever I'm at the opposite end. I started with film in the late 60s, and have tried to get back into film for the past year. Unfortunately every time I think I'm ready I discover something new in digital.

Me too, I don't like it....

Does anyone remember the Weston Ranger 9 spit meter with a Zone System dial upgrade? I used one with my Nikon F in the old days and remember it provided great information. Of course, it took more than a second to set up a shot. When I get back to Long Island I’m going to see if they both work.

Never heard of a spit meter but it sounds good

A spit meter might be used to determine how bad a photo or a politician is.

Hopefully they're meek.

Dinner was General Tso Chicken.
Not my fave but edible all the same.
And let's not forget egg rolls.

Or teachers and preachers a little to much into the lesson

That's pretty much how my week went.

That should have been “spot.” Can we blame it on spellcheck

Sounds good, been the downfall of us all

I once got an essay on the death of Socrates where the student relied on spellcheck. Instead of Socrates being in the cell with his friend, Crito, he was alone in the cell with critter. I guess those Athenian cells were not fumigated that often. (True story)
