Also the best higher education in the world. A country of extremes. What can you do?

I also didn't know rinaldo sells chickun's

And the most expensive higher education in the world with the lowest return on investment. To do anything on either coast above unskilled labor, you need to have a college degree.

Yeah well a lot of people shouldn't go to college. Not all degrees and schools are the same, but the debt sure is. Society needs to figure that one out. What I said still stands.

Most hockeybuzz posters are people. Some are indeed "what's." I don't want to be exclusionary

McDonagh’s actions were nothing less than a deliberate cross-check to the head of his opponent who was approaching to deliver a legal body check. This is worthy of a match penalty. Note that coach Vigneault is following the pass through the middle of the ice and didn’t see the cross-check delivered by his player.

Vigneault continued to female dog and moan as did Glass days after the hit meaning after I'm sure they saw the replay.

I looked it up because it was bothering me haha

"'Which' is generally the best choice when the list of possible answers is limited, and 'what' is generally the best choice for open-ended questions," Fogarty says. "But many questions don't neatly fall into one of these two categories. For example, the 'What actor ... ?' question in Charley's trivia game has so many possible answers that some people may not consider it limited in the same way as a question asking 'Which of these three colors do you like best?'

"Also, the rule is not widely known or followed. Seven out of nine style guides I checked didn't mention it, and although the Chicago Manual of Style states that 'which is usually selective or limited,' the authors also note that either 'which or 'what' is fine when you're referring to a person, animal, or thing; and they have example sentences using 'what' that fall into the category of questions Charley's PhD friend finds cringeworthy."

You're right, college isn't for everyone. The quality of the school usually doesn't matter, it's the effort of the student. Even online/for profit colleges can provide a decent education if the student is willing to put the time and work into it. The student also makes the decision to sign on the dotted line to borrow the money.

College is way too expensive and the government makes it way too easy to borrow the money to pay for it. It's a business, just like anything else, no matter if it's Harvard of the University of PHX. The school gets paid, the government collects the interest, and the student starts out their adult life in a hole of debt, making it so my generation can't contribute to the economy like our parents did. And without a degree, good luck getting a job. We're all screwed until that system is fixed But hey, McDonalds might pay $15 per hour soon

A turducken is a chicken stuffed inside a duck stuffed inside a turkey. A Cthurkey is an octopus stuffed inside a turkey and garnished with crab legs and bacon. The dish is named in honor of our Lord Cthulhu whose dreadful reign will hopefully begin soon.

Haven't back-read, but I am assuming the talk is, without Couturier, it's just not all that realistic to believe that a playoff run is happening

That doesn't mean you have to embrace a tank...I never will do that. I am hopeful that we see more opportunities for young players who have been in the system and that we see some more growth from people like Ghost and Schenn, who has been a little better than I expected for much of the season

I don't know what I want to see as far as trades go. I want to see a more talented roster, better depth, next season. But they have to be careful in how they go about it. You can't be afraid of risk, but you can't be stupid. They are so close to being really good, with a few breaks

That guy can suck it -- seen too many nasty/sneaky cross-checks from that guy to think he deserves a pity party

Cross-check a guy in the head, eff you

At this point. Opening face off is be fine if they back passed to Mason and he deposited it into our net. At least 3 times before they actually play
