This is your last warning
Don't forget mothers' day tomorrow. Hopefully all of you have thought of something nice that you can do for your mother this year. Me, well I'm in a little bit of trouble. Between mothers' day and my mom's birthday and Christmas last year...let's just say it'll be a long time before I top any of that. To Kass and Rachel, where ever you are, happy anniversary. I'm looking forward to seeing those of you who are unfortunate enough to be stuck in Longview for the summer this coming week. Perhaps we can get some guys together and remedy the fact that, after our encounter with the oh-so-polite Rusk County Sherriff, I never got to go bridge jumping in my final semester. And of course, drinks and cigars for those enjoying the last days and months of their bachellorhood. So long.

Last time I checked...
Needless to say, I was not very happy about the Stars losing to the Mighty Ducks last night, but what's the deal with calling back the Stars goal. Sure the rule says that the puck must cross the goal line with the net in its normal position, but if a defender is responsible for moving the net out of its normal position, then a penalty should be called to offset discounting the goal. I think its time to switch to Hinduism; the concept of Karma has obviously proven itself for the Stars, after they won the Cup in '99 on a much-debated goal by Brett "my-new-team-was-also-knocked-out-of-the-playoffs-by-the-Ducks" Hull. All I can say now is the Ducks better win it all, because I will be terribly unhappy if my boys got bumped off by a second-rate team.
