Standing on the concourse at Devil's games between periods has its benefits. Rarely do I pay to play hockey anymore, people I have played with in past leagues always say "Hey it's roller-guy" or "It's the fast guy!" then invite me onto their teams, to practices, and scrimmages. Another 2 dates and 1 team lined up from last game.
The coaching staff and management are...

Today was cafe night, I got free drinks from the waitress with the J-Lo butt. The otherwaitress (actually fairly cute) made me her favorite drink hoping I would really like it, I did actually. The group of friends I was with included a female I dated for all of 2 days, and that was 8 years ago, she was hanging all over me like I...

Ice: 2-1 loss, I hit left and right posts. Also fed 6 passes from behind the net through the slot. My wingers mossed all 6. My passes "suprised" them, hehe. I played on the powerplay unit, shorthanded, with the goalie pulled, and even a few rounds of my normal D position. I was assiged to center the "checking" (aka stinky) line to balance out the...

I went nuts today and pulled down 44gig of data. Now my news server went nuts and is nolonger accepting my authentication.
Hockey game 1, 4-4 tie and they toss me in the box with 24 seconds left in the game for "illegal equipment" since I went for the puck with no helmet. We score with 1.5 seconds left from center ice. Hah.
Hockey game...

Another hockey game, we won 9-3, I had 2 assists and was a +3 overall. Blocked a slapshot with the side of my kneecap in that 5-5 tie the other day, didn't slow me down, but it sure as hell hurts.
Some asstard just moved into my set of condos and aparrently doesn't understand that I always take up 2 spots. When I go out...

I missed my morning hockey game for 2 reasons, I was really lazy, and my wrist hurt, I assume from sleeping on it. My massuse called and canceled my 4pm appointment, grr.
My 10:15pm hockey game, I was invited back to play by my old team manager, he needed scoring and sound defense. Problem, he doesn't show up so noone passes to me, so I...

Last night I went to the live SG photoshoot in Brooklyn. I was expecting a rinky dink bar with a few tv sets to watch the shoot. The approach was weird, no cars around, a man cloaked in shadows in a dimly lit doorway, I almost drove home. It looked like a place to buy 10 kilos of coke from the Yakuza. I parked went...

The Xenium chip is installed on a v1.0 mb. I initially assumed I fotgot how to solder and removed the supposedly more difficult topside D0 wire. After using the huge D0 point on the board bottom I still get a dolid red external bios light. Hmm, swap out the wireless controller and bingo, goes blue then off. I had it right the first time. Now...

I ordered a OZXodus Xenium modchip today for my Xbox so I decided to see how far along Xbox hacking has come. Holy crap it's really far along, Gentoo builds and support. Near solderless modchips with multilpe on the fly bios loading, controller based bios selection/disable, external lcd's. It's nuts. I may get a spare Xbox just to use as a webserver or to create...

Dinner with the NJ Devil's tonight. Mike Rupp was at our table, for being 6'5"+ he was making less noise than I do when speaking. Corey Schwab was worried about someone stealing my trapper at a game, maybe I'll get him to keep an eye on it. Finally got Grant to sign my jersey and made fun of Turner for signing in the wrong place...
