Philly's giant prospect in net

Yes, but what is his dog situation and what is his stance on the universe?

Now we know where all the East German scientists who developed those women swimmers and pole vaulters went.....Helsinki

If this gig doesn't work out he can always play football in Miami. He is a Fin after all.

Nice. And his father sounds like a missing Marx Brother.

Soooooooooo, he can throw a stick like a javelin and a puck like a discus. Let's hope he can actually stop the puck with his stick at this level.

Now, that's good. I see what you did there. Which is good for me being a tad slow like I usually am.

Growing up did they have a sign on your street saying "Slow Children Playing?"

I always thought that was a bit mean....and loved it.

No, they didn't, which some of us took as a sign of a conspiracy by the parents to thin the herd a bit.

Actually, I grew up on a one-way street and every now and then some teenage yahoo thought it would be a fun idea to go up the street the wrong way. It gave new meaning to our dodge ball games.

Hahahahahaha.......same story here but with a minor twist; instead of the teenagers driving up the wrong way on the one way. it was the angry old couple who always yelled at us to get off their lawn.

Yea, we had a couple of those angry oldsters, too. When you live on a street that's wide enough for one lane of traffic with cars parked on both sides of the street, you hone your reflexes very well scrambling to get the net out of the way of a wrong way driver plowing thru your street hockey game. :)

That didn't bother me...............but my parents blindfolding me and telling me to sit on the white line until it was time for dinner was sort of disturbing.
