No poker last night, given the Islanders game and my game shortly thereafter. This is starting to sound like a broken record, but the Islanders (now 9-2-1 in their last 12) pasted the conference front-running Devils 4-0, chasing the vaunted Marty Brodeur after two periods. Would have been 5-0 if it weren’t for another disallowed goal, this time on a quick whistle in the first period. And it would have been closer to 8-0 if not for a few remarkably acrobatic saves by Marty prior to his departure...
And my team, after starting off 0-2, improved to 11-3-1 last night. Things are good on the ice all around, although I’m useless today after having gotten only about 4 hours of sleep lol...
Next up for the Isles tonight are the Stanley Cup champion Penguins. Should be a good tilt...
Random thought for the day: Why can't one's mind see through the folly of a commitment to another person, to the extent that it rightfully overcomes one's emotions regarding that person? A good friend maintains that it's all about ego.
Whoa...
