I'm studying for physics (really, as if I do ANYTHING else) and trying to convince myself to care about the fate of two pucks about to collide traveling at various velocities.... So, feel free to distact me. :)

Really, shadow, even hockey fans aren't interested in two pucks colliding after travelling at different velocities. Now, if it was a hockey player's fist colliding with another hockey player's face, well, that would be different.

Yup.. That would be called "entertainment"!

I went to a brawl once, and a hockey game broke out...

Being a hockey fan myself, I think I would mostly be wondering what two pucks were doing on the ice at the same time. :D

It's true, hockey brutality is half the fun ;)

I've never had the chance to play, but I do enjoy watching the sport of hockey (even on Television, strangely enough!). I've gone to about 15 pro games in my life. I saw the Blackhawks twice in Chicago, the Kings 8 times in Los Angeles (5 times with Gretzky playing), and 5 times for the Ducks in Anaheim. Great experiences, those!

It was also learned that Greeks know how to party...Easter style!

If you tell parading Greeks at your gate to get off your lawn, they won't.

If you flash Greeks they won't throw you beads.

Q has no shame and will try on a new pair of Carhartt pants while chatting (hey, there wasn't a kilt handy.)

Catch you next time true believers, same chat time, same chat channel.

Knowing how to party, they speak loudly. So when you want them off your lawn, you've got to be louder than them.

For example, in the film 'Troy', try shouting louder than Achilleas (your Achilles) "Anyone else? Is there anyone else?", or in 'The 300', try calling out to them louder than "Come and take them".

As for flashing, they think it's Zeus again playing with his thunderbolts, see. *wink*
