Hershey as Inspiration?

Monday, May 11th, 2009

Kudos to the Hershey Bears who were down 3-2 in their series with the Wilkes-Barre/Scranton Penguins. Hershey won last night to even the series at 3-3 and force a Game 7.

Game 7 will be played on home ice at Giant Center in Hershey on Tuesday night.

If they can do it, we can too! That is how we need to approach tonight’s game - with confidence and with focus on just the game at hand.

And by the way, both teams here are true warriors having played 4 games in 5 nights. We are truly spoiled in the NHL with our scheduling in comparison.

Wish us well. Send those good vibes our way. We hope to see you all on Wednesday night at Verizon Center. Go Caps! Go Bears!

Thanks for Sending This Along

A member of the blogosphere sent this link to me which I found very instructive. Click here to read this piece from only one year ago.

I am hopeful folks can read it and that some can start to lay off us just a bit. It does reek of some ”what is good for the goose isn’t good for the gander” though, doesn’t it?

I have received some amazing emails. I will just link this article back as a FYI in my responses. Sound fair?

Which one was worse, Wanda Sykes or David Feherty?

Which quote will generate the most outrage in the media?

Is either of them funny?

You decide. What do you think?

Here is Wanda. Wanda once raked several of us at AOL and Time Warner over the coals. Click here for details on David.

And you thought the Caps vs. Penguins series had generated some doozies, huh? Check these out.

I found this film to be very relaxing and very moving. It deals with African Americans; people of the Jewish faith; and art. It is short, to the point and of high quality. Do you like the higher quality of the video player that we are using for SnagFilms? Click here to check out this film. It is 22 minutes long and well worth your time.
