Why, thank you for your generosity. I suppose this means I need to pay attention to hockey now.
It's a fast-paced exciting game. Being a native Miamian, it's only natural that my favorite sport-to watch-is hockey.:jawdrop: I've been to quite a few games, both minor league and NHL. I just found out today that when Seattle was granted an expansion franchise, season tickets sold out in 12 minutes. I think y'all are ready. I do find it interesting that the minor league hockey team is/was the Seattle THUNDERBIRDS.

I haven't fought with the wiring harness. It would have to be fished out through an f-hole, and that is such a PITA that I won't be doing it. Ever. Plus, I don't have a clue how to date pots, even if the markings aren't obliterated by solder.

I usually just invite them to dinner and a movie.
 
We have a hockey team?!
Wellll, in case you weren't aware, The Seattle Kraken are the NHL's newest expansion team(#32). They were allowed to pick 1 unprotected player from 30 of the 31 other teams to begin their roster. They're going to have a natural rivalry with the Vancouver Canucks. They got some good, young talent that if they become a team could be very exciting.(Sorta like some supergroup bands-lotta individual talent doesn't necessarily make for a good 'band'.) Whoever they picked from the Tampa Bay Lightning was gonna hurt, but especially the guy they chose. We'll miss him. A lot.:(
 
Sorry it wasn't clear. My bad.
No, my reading comprehension isn't always firing on all tubes. I read too quickly. Each word actually means something. Unless one has bought into the postmodern approach to reading, in which case who knows what words or sentences really mean and reading is therefore pointless! So your point was right on target!

So we can't blame the French! That funny and true, at least on the front end. Then there's that whole "word game" thing happening on the interpretive/reader side where the reader can do the same and assign meaning as they see fit (Lyotard, Foucault). Barthes thought it a waste of time to try to find meaning in words of an author, but had the nerve to write books contradicting his own thinking (a little special pleading going on here maybe!).

Anyway...Thunderbirds.
