4/5 but 1 and 2 were guessed.
I always thought Drury was drafted in ’96 or ’97…

I don’t see a 3rd question.

A man who stole my whisky used the defense that no one could resist a bottle of Scotch. I had no choice but to testify on his behalf.

You have to know #4…LA kings were the team the damaged Forsberg’s spleen. Since there was no blood bath, they couldn’t have played the redwings. so Fuck the redwings!

Datsyuk may have done it first, but he learned it from Peter Forsberg.

Thanks for everything Foppa!

I’m not what society considers “Good Looking” or “attractive” and when you mix that in with a scarcastic, slightly dickish sense of humor…. what I’m trying to say is my mini golfing is not frequent.

I’ve only been going to bars as a single woman for 6 months or so. And I’m always in a group of friends with both guys and girls and I never understood how anyone goes home alone if they don’t want to. Seriously. I’ m usually in a t-shirt and jeans or a skirt, yes I always have heels on, sometimes I even have a hat with either a Nords or Avs logo on it. And I am never left alone. As in, they’ll offer to buy drinks, follow me from the bar back to my booth or the dance floor or outside for a breath of fresh air. I can also go in a bar and point out, maybe 6 or 7, girls at first glance that don’t want to go home alone that night.

But your story reminds me of Whyte Ave in Edmonton.

I really just wanted to make a joke about mini golf. The bars in Ft. Collins were like that back when I wasn’t tellin’ youngsters to get off my lawn. Denver is a bit different but you can still hook up if that’s what you’re looking for.

All of my causal (non suit) clothes i’ve noticed recently are either Avs, Broncos or North Face gear. But for some reason I’m not fighting off the girls (or guys).

I would have thought baseball hat = guys not interested, not so much. Hahaha. Oh well, that’s why I always go with a group with lots of guys. They keep me safe from them.

Depending on how predatory they are, and a lot of guys are, girls who wear hats tend to be insecure.

by An Unmitigated Disaster on Apr 29, 2011 12:11 PM MDT up reply actions  

Meh, I wear that when I’m going out to a friends house and then we end up at the bar. Which is typically what happens. But I also tend to just go casual so that I’m left alone!

If you do, I’m thinking a ‘professional wingman’ service could be a viable business model.

Though, it may be a bit close to “pimp” on the moral scale. It would be profitable to be sure.

Why would I be pimping, I’m just guiding, I’d be the female version of Hitch.
