Well my Final 4 didn't come to be! So close though... until the picks lost! I didn't even play this year. I didn't know enough about the teams to make a guess. Aren't you in the Riland Pool? |

The thread title is officially apropos... ...completely moved out of Campbell and into the new digs... ...now, the mountain of boxes...fml... Didn't you have a garage sale before you moved so you wouldn't have to deal with that All the umbrellas, rain coats, and water proofing stuff sold... Garage sales are difficult when it rains for 163 days straight... |

My god the USPS is the most ridiculous company on the face of the earth. Had an order online where the computer glitched on the auto-fill of my work address by putting in my home city and zip code. I didn't catch it in time. The item shipped and I noticed the issue on the 22nd of March. Spent nearly an hour on hold to actually speak with someone. Let them know what the issue was and they said they would simply schedule a re-delivery and the item would be delivered in 2-3 days. So the item was shipped from a post office in Clovis to a post office in Fresno. It was then shipped to a distribution center in Santa Clarita 200 miles away. They in turn shipped it back to Clovis, who has now shipped it back to Fresno. So I spent another hour on hold during my lunch to as "What the fuck?" Basically the shipping people are ignoring the re-delivery request and keep trying to ship it back to an invalid address. So I ask the guy where it is headed now? "Back to Santa Clarita". So he opened an investigation into this to clear it all up and someone should get back to me in 2-3 days. By that time this package will likely have been shipped back from Santa Clarita, to Clovis, to Fresno and back to Santa Clarita again. Can't figure out why this company is basically bankrupt. A bunch of fucking morons.

Posted this elsewhere but figured it’d get more exposure here. Okay so I heard that the reason the old forum died was because the new group in charge of these kind of things decides to stop supporting it and left trip to the individual teams to continue it. Does anyone know if they went after other sites? I frequented another site dedicated to hockey fights and it has been down since March 22. It just says the server cannot be found. It’s gone down before for technical reasons but never this long. I’d hope it isn’t permanent. Any help or knowledge would be greatly appreciated. |

I was told the same thing by the Admin on the Ducks message board. It was up to the individual teams to continue and pay for it. The NHL would no longer support them. I know the Ducks, Oilers and Hurricanes boards are up and running but the Canucks board is still down. I heard the Hockey fights channel on Youtube was shut down because of copyright infringement. That's all I know of so far. If I hear anything else I'll post it here |

Now I am just waiting for Metallica to announce the second date with the SF Symphony Orchestra for their fan club members only and I will jump on those for sure. |

Just watched Free Solo on Hulu at lunch. It's about the guy who solo climbed El Capitan in under 4 hours without any ropes. Intense flick. My palms were sweating just watching some of the scenes and I knew going in that the guy makes it.

If I hear anything else I'll post it here A few months ago going through some data I discovered the NHL hasn't been assigning some coach challenges correctly. I knew the email of a guy who sort of oversees the stats and the data issues on NHL.com and wrote him about it, with the list of the errors.
He forwarded the list to the VP of IT of the NHL, Russell Levine, who responded with the following:
Needless to say since I haven't communicated any single error, or any single bit of information, for that matter, with the NHL.

cjelliko interpreted "setting up shop" literally.
He disappeared in the garage for some time, and then when he invited us, he arranged the garage furniture to resemble a chair, a counter, a storage shelf and a cash register, piled the grocery items we keep in the garage and began selling them at a variety of prices between $.25 to $1 to the visiting grandparents.

sweet, just like the Sharks, the Giants are staying true to form. I mean you have the lead against the Dodgers in the past two games and then give it up.
My look on them was grim to begin with, but come, beat the damn Doyers for Christ sake!
