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!

I speak - You speak

  
Somethings are just too funny for those who are not au courant with them.
Just like these... 
.. scattered trout caught on croakers     weather report
.. quick limits of flounder    casino wager? 
.. crapple are fair on minnows     fair or unfair?
.. fair bass action to four pounds     is it a price war?
              If you haven't guessed it..                                                         that's fishermen speak!
And with a living thing..as language really is..words take on different meanings.

Discussed eloquently here.

On the other hand, there are "chickflics".
So are romance novels "chickbooks":-D?

And how about "props"? 
No, not the kind usually artfully displayed on stages!


Not these either  
So PROPS to that certain someone who inspired this blog..
not much of a blog, but then it IS summer :-)!

For serious Aeros/Wild fans there is this:
Aeros sign Jeff Taffe,
 while The Wild aquire Dany Heatley for Martin Havlat from the Sharks. Setoguchi now has an old friend on the ice with him, eh!
BTW O'Sullivan is still out there somewhere, but where ?
And in case you did not know about the life of "Sully". Life was not a bowl of cherries for him. Wishing him, his wife and new baby the best!

Should you have missed it due to the holiday weekend
Minnesota, the State, is shut-down!
It has run out of money!

No hay problemas...

No words needed?
Cut backs are coming - so I read with some trepidation.
How much less will be there to live on for many?
It's a *Change*.
Thought for the day............................................................................
And a bit of Lehrer's classic satires:
Masochism Tango


Aeros will have three days off before facing, in back to back games, the Peoria Rivermen this weekend.
At least it will not be on a *Friday the 13th*!
Here the current AHL standings:
The Aeros have moved from last to 5th place as of today.
Done kind of the hard way, point by point, lately!
1 San Antonio Rampage 

2 Oklahoma City Barons
3 Milwaukee Admirals
4 Peoria Rivermen 
5 Houston Aeros
6 Texas Stars 
7 Rockford IceHogs
8 Chicago Wolves

Gotta be cheerful . Gotta think happy thoughts.
Let's start with things like these :-):
Flower power :-)
Hugs :-)







And my favorite piece of music  for the day :

'No hay problemas'.. the jazzy version
