Random Thursday

*Kings and Ducks in what should be an epic Game 7 on Friday night.  Last night's game was not for the faint of heart.  Go Kings.

*David Ortiz wasn't good enough to play for the Minnesota Twins.  Or so the Twins thought.  He continues to show them it was the biggest mistake in the franchise's history.

*I saw snowflakes yesterday in Grand Forks.  

*I wonder when the Sweeto Burrito on Columbia Road is going to open.

*Good luck to Blonde Daughter as she begins play in the East Region Tennis Tournament tomorrow in Grand Forks.

*Congratulations to Red Sox Daughter on completing her first year of college with flying colors. 

*Reggie Tales shout out to Tony in Warren.

*Happy belated birthday to Hockey Guy.

*It's hard to fathom, but Matt Cooke is a pretty good hockey player when he sticks to playing hockey.

*The Indiana Pacers are a tough team to figure out.  

*If anyone sees Summer Sidekick, please let him know he needs to be accessible as soon as summer starts.

*There are few things that will cost you more sleep than the Stanley Cup Playoffs.  But I think it's a great trade-off.

*The Minnesota Wild played an instant classic last night in Denver and won.  Their reward?  The defending Stanley Cup Champion Chicago Blackhawks.

*If you're bored and want some interesting reading material, check out the Denver Post online.  They are absolutely destroying their Russian goalie.

*Congratulations to the Los Angeles Kings.  They became only the fourth team in NHL history to lose the first three games of a series and to go on and win a game seven.

*Hoosier Girl, Blonde Daughter and I had some outstanding Chinese food the other night.  Upon completion of the meal, I cracked open my fortune cookie only to find it contained no fortune.  Is that a bad thing?

*Reggie Tales shout out to Scott in Bemidji.

*Speaking of Bemidji, I've been watching "Fargo" on FX on Tuesday nights. I must admit it's far better than I thought it would be.

*It's May 1st.  I'm going to put my snow blower away.
