You seem to bring up race and I was curious as to how it is relevant to the topic.

I think showing the contribution to humanity by diff races lessens racial tension. Shows people pulling in the same direction.

Highways were half empty in the GTA last couple days. I drove an hour out of the GTA to go shopping.

Social distancing in full effect.

I read that it is very much suggested(should be mandatory IMO) that if you want to go see family members over 60 to get tested first to be safe.

i will say this though. Why is it that I call someone an idiot, everyone assumes its an angry and hateful post. Marwood calls me an idiot 15x a day and I don't think anything of it?

It’s because when you call someone an idiot, if they aren’t actually an idiot they know you’re just joking, but if they are actually an idiot, they know it’s true and get defensive...

didn't he sell you to orange julius for an ounce of sour diesel and a cord of wood? that trade set him up to be the armchair gm he is.
- RealityChecker

As a person over 65 if anyone of my family wanted to visit me , I would gladly let them. I would be more concerned about passing something on to them.

I think most people by the age of 60 have lived a thankful and full life. The last thing I want in life is to be in a care home in my 80s .

I think decisions like that should be left to the individuals.

I think Niedermayer is a pretty good comparable overall. Not overpowering but an excellent and smooth skater. I think the closer you look at it, Hughes has parts to his game that Niedermayer didn't but he's the closest in recent years anyway
- WhiteLie


Yeah heard that was the best comparison. Though QH has better edge work and less physicality. If he later does something inventive as a D man then he'll be closer to Orr.
