About Me

My photo
Split personality. Liking the arts, especially opera, and hockey and Los Toros. I know, I know THAT one is non pc currently. But I can't help it saw some in Spain and got hooked, but good. But on the other hand right now opera and hockey are in the forefront!

Monks or Gypsies....

reading the lines, definitely between them, of some comments on T3I it seems that Fred Trask, Mr. Camera's pix are sorely missed. Yes, I, too, went onto aeros.com for their photos, trying to find a one or a two to include in my blog, but NO such luck.



All are only for sale....





Accessibility by fans to players - now that is another 'puckgame' all together ;-) One has to admit, that these 'guyz' may need protection from overly enthusiastic or mad fans of both genders.


We 'could' compare the guyz to a bunch of cloistered monks (except of course that some of them are married or have partners) with only the 'Brothers Gatekeeper' allowed to interact with the public. But, they do not chant sweetly... the sounds coming forth from the guyz are rather more raucous ;-). ;-). They may even bake and cook and wash dishes and do laundry...and even toil for NHL glory.







On the other hand we 'could' compare them to gypsies, always packed and ready to roll (wherever the bosses wish to send them).




Albeit not by "Dyana" .... airplanes and buses are much more likely the choices LOL....


What a life!

These guyz have to be 'totally hooked on hockey' to put up with that day-to-day, contract-to-contract, year-to-year kinda living.

And have saints for wives or partners. What a life !

And that reminds how much Hockey players and Opera singers, and to some extent los toreros, do have in common LOL...always packed, always somewhere in a hotel/furnished apartment...not really a home. Always afraid of injuries (bodies or vocal cords - all keep them from appearing, except, I guess, Hockey players get paid, while opera singers do not when incapacitated, plus they have to pay their own doctor's fees).

Now having posited on all the above, can we look forward to more goals on the next game days produced by the Trio : Daoust, DiSalvatore, Smith, or Smith, DiSalvatore, Daoust or DiSalvatore, Daoust, Smith.. or whatever configuration of those three? LOL
