just as a point of reference.... (I'm curious) who is the last politician in the US or Canada (mainstream politician) who is a communist by your definition?

The "communist" or "commie" slur isn't even used anymore.

It's enough to call someone a "socialist" to get them reviled in the red states these days.

Henry Wallace was very progressive but that’s about it. (I know you didn’t ask me)

And tell us about it? Probably

Men can’t multitask?
- Steven_Seagull

Funny study I read about:

They set up a set of headphones where one story would play in the right ear, a different story in the left ear.

When you told the participants to only focus on one story, men performed better when tested on the story afterwards.

But if you told them to listen to both stories, the women performed better on the test afterwards.

The anthropological explanation was the men's brains developed to function better at having a singular focus (hunting), and that women's brains developed to function better at multi-tasking (doing whatever they were doing while also watching kids).

Yes, you pathetic old boomer.
- AdamFrench

are you starting with the "old boomer" crap again?



serious question - what's the difference between this season's version of the Leafs and last seasons version?


before you twist yourself into knots... its the addition of a few guys who are more hard-working type players over the preference towards a roster full of Nylanderites.....

that's right - more "old boomer" like hockey

Is this an indirect shot at Joe Thornton because his beard makes him look like a hunter?

Healthy Muzzin, Brodie, and Bogo hasn't been as bad as I expected. And Holl has upped his game.

I franking wish I was a Boomer.

Woulda been nice to pay for a house with my beer empties.

Remember what I said about karma not being in the NHL?

Trump will never go to jail. It will be court challenge after appeal after injunction after rain delay.

Nothing would make me happier than to see this guy get the punishment he deserves, but it's not going to happen.

Don't shoot the messenger here - I'm not happy about it.
- Atomic Wedgie

the biggest punishment has already been laid on Trump - they cut of his propaganda spewing mechanisms.... as long as the twitter/facebook/social media channels are out of bounds for him... he will become increasingly irrelevant.

I tend to agree its unlikely he'll do jail time... but watch how his minions are handled, Roger Stone, the Breitbart brain trust... those guys going down again... will be the end of his reach or influence.

don't forget Simmonds as well, and Thornton doesn't get thrown off the puck as much as most of the roster.

unfortunately we get to witness the "wussy roster" against Calgary this evening...

not to split hairs... I'm a very late Boomer - and courtesy of Trudeau #1s mid-life melt downs, and some really stupid policies around natural resources we got killed on property values in the very early 80s, when we have 17-20% interest rates.... which earned us the unbridled wonder of Mulroney, free trade and the end of the Canadian economy.

for those of us late in the Boomer wave... it wasn't great - although beer prices were awesome!

nothing beats buying a 2-4 out of the mobile LCBO/BeerStore that was setup in Bala back then... "drive up beer store"

pfft what do you think they are going to use as a template to cut his hair.

I would still take it.

I know we all hate the bruins but I kind of like that pastarnak guy. His personality is pretty funny and a happy go lucky guy. Hard not to like him.

And to think we could have drafted pastarnak in the same draft.
