I just have to share this great news from my family!

Via my Brother in Law (he shared it on the Book of faces) He's the Arlington Admirals Hockey teams coach. (For my fellow NY'rs, they are in Lagrangeville, NY)

I am please to announce that the Arlington Admirals have won the States for the Varsity High School Hockey Division and we are on our way to the USA Hockey Nationals in Omaha, Nebraska. I'm proud of all the players who put the hard work in to achieve a remarkable goal. We have more work to do, but I'm confident we are up for the challenge.


SO proud of the BIL and his kids!

SNOW. HArumph

Just off the phone with my sister. She lives in the in the hudson Valley. They are not really gonna get hit. (YAY for the VAlley! )

Here I am -- with fellow DU's, prepping for a mess of a snow storm.. Rain turning to frozen rain and then snow.

Because of the rain, they could not pretreat the roads.

Hubby will be working from home tomorrow.

IF I still lived in the Valley I would say it just the way things are... But I live in Alexandria, Virginia. MArch, Snow. HArumph.

We are having Caphrinia's, plantains and jerk chicken tonight.

Stay safe my friends!

IMO: GD has lost it's collective mind.

Discuss politics, issues, and current events. No posts about Israel/Palestine, religion, guns, showbiz, or sports unless there is really big news. No conspiracy theories. No whining about DU.


I know this might be a meta issue, but meta doesn't exist anymore, so I have a question:

Is GD now a place to create current DU events?

(Please note the title of my OP was IMO)


I'm not going to post much here, I am not looking to fight. I just want to understand what the heck is going on. this place is weirder than usual.

NFC game: Where to stream audio?

I'm in the DC area. I'm trying to get a design project done and the TV is upstairs. I can't seem to find a link to stream the audio of the game, anyone got a stream?

I tried a lot of the Settle stations and was tols in a very nice voice: We're sorry this stream is currently not available.

Can someone help me out?

Chris Christie lied. Now he has a sad.

he claimed he was very very sad.

I claim that he got caught in lies. His presser was nothing more than a failed double down on the lies he told and the further covering of his ass.

What lie did you catch first? My personal favorite ws that his circle of trust was betrayed.

Yes, he used the phrase, circle of trust.

So is January *woo wars* on the DU 2014 calendar?

I guess I missed the memo. I'll pay for the calendar in the future.


Have a good nite all... I'm gonna have some tea. It has chamomile.
