MN scores. 1-1, under review.

We have been to 3 Frozen Fours, 3 Regionals, and 4 or 5 Final Fives. I think we have the most fun at the Final Five. The Xcel is a great host. It is on Easter weekend this year and there won't be a St. Patty's Day Parade like usual, but it is still going to be a blast!

Trupp's goal is #1 on ESPN Sports Center. I didn't record it, but I am sure someone will.
Last year it was Bina, this year it is Trupp. Thanks Minnesota! Woohoo!

Another couple is joining us for the Frozen Four this year in Denver. Anyone have extra tickets for all the games? Give me a call at 701-230-3225 or send me an email at breswen@hotmail.com. Thank you! Oh, and GO SIOUX!

Not McVille, about 30 miles SE of there though. We prolly should have gotten a speeding ticket riving through McVille tonight on the way home from Devils Lake.
I'm a nice shade of crisy right now, and I reapplied sunscreen all day.
Were you at the Hersheys Track Meet or in the Chamber Fishing Tournament? I could hear the track meet announcer all day. I was outside staining my fence and I got crispy too.. with sunscreen.
Mr. Yekcoh made some fresh walleye for dinner Friday night. It was yummy. That was in return for staining the deck. I have been a staining fool this weekend.
Oh, my guess is Golden Lake. Ashtabula is more than an hour away from Grand Forks.

I have a Toyota Camry Hybrid. I like it a whole bunch. There is lots of room and fun features to play with. *I really like the navigation system.* But best of all, I don't really remember the last time I put gas in it. I easily get 450 miles out of a tank and I live close to where I work. It doesn't have the guts my former car had, but at about twice the mileage, I can live with it. I had it all winter and NEVER had a problem starting it, even on the coldest of days (I do not have a block heater and don't know if that is even an option on this car). I think that bank of batteries could start most anything. There is a gauge on the dash that constantly monitors your mileage. So you really learn to lay off the gas pedal and also learn to let the car coast more. The hybrids seem to have the ablilty to coast faster at much greater distances than a regular car.
I also have to say, my son has a 2006 Honda Civic with a manual transmission. He gets about the same mileage as my hybrid. So there are options out there.
I also think the Camry is a very safe car to drive. The thing has airbags all over the place. The Prius has a different look. But even those are growing on me.

I was curious if anyone had some pictures of the ralph they would be willing to share with me. I am brining a hockey team to the twin cities this winter for some tournement and i am trying to convince the parents to drive us up to Grand Forks to see the ralph. I thought a preview would help. PM if you would like to help me out
Google Maps has a neat picture from above if you look at the Satellite or Hybrid view too. It is even more interesting if you have Google Earth installed. I like how you can see "Fighting Sioux" written with the bushes that between the sidewalks on the east side of the building between the parking lots. You should arrange for a tour for the kids and their parents too, so they can see the WHOLE building.

I think its a nice perk for the band members to get seats in the lower bowl for all the hard work they put in during the year. It was really neat having the band there for Duncan's Hobey in St Louis. Hearing them play for him kinda gave me those goosebumps you get when you are proud of your kid. They added to the whole ceremony as well as to every game they play at.
Maybe you forget that they are giving up things to perform in the band when they could have had other plans.

It went from this...
Two UND hockey players plead guiltyTwo of the UND hockey players charged after being caught at a Grand Forks tavern in February changed their underage drinking pleas to guilty today, and one will spend 10 days in jail.
Jonathan Toews, 18, and T.J. Oshie, 20, pleaded guilty to minor not allowed on liquor premises, a Class B misdemeanor. The two were charged after Grand Forks police responded to a call at Judy's Tavern, where Toews and Oshie were part of a group that included another UND hockey player, Robbie Bina.
Bina, 24, was charged with escaping custody the same night for allegedly opening the door of a police car that one of the other hockey players was being held in.
Jonathan Toews and T.J. Oshie
Toews, because of previous charges, will spend 10 days in jail and must serve 30 hours community service, according to court records. He's been fined $750 in court fines and fees.
Toews was charged in September with minor in consumption and noisy party gathering.
Oshie was sentenced to unsupervised probation for one year and to pay about $450 in fines and fees. Once the year is complete, the file will be sealed, according to court documents.
Bina has pleaded not guilty to the escaping custody charge. He's scheduled to appear in a pretrial conference on May 10.

Someone needed to get their facts straight before they hit the publish button.

sorry, to compare social drinking with being a loner like the VT issue is just WRONG. One does NOT have to drink to be social. SHAME!

Sorry to have offended you. Not all kids do drink. But a majority of them do break the law by doing so, sadly.
-
I'm just glad he is a normal kid and was having fun at UND. He obviously is a socializer and we learned this week what can happen to people who refuse to be social and interact with people.
Most of us (or our kids) have done what he got caught doing. It's not right and is against the law, but learning that following the law is easiest in the long run is just a part of growing up. It is frustrating to learn this way, but it can always be worse than 10 days in jail.
Man, am I a parent or what?

Uhmm, I believe he's talking about getting a cheerleader Fed X'd for 60 bucks. The sandwich is extra.
:silly: 
Am I the only person feeling totally confused and messed up from reading this thread?
-
OK, I'm just coming back after leaving the thread for a while.
We're setting up a smear league as a way of convincing Johnny! to stay. Right?
We need some way to kill the time while we wait for JT's decision!
-
My Grandpa could kick your....
j/k. That's our family "game". I've never met anyone else who plays it.
We used to play smear all the time back when I lived in Nelson County. It was one of the best games ever. We need to revive those smear games for the off season.

Don't forget the back door and finished off with a mikes pizza. The flood came along and no more back door, Antique and Whitey's got bigger.
Thursdays were ladies night at Level 7 and we got free drinks and pizza until they let the men in at 9:00. For some reason guys would be lined up outside waiting to get in. It wouldn't be for all the drunk 18-21 year old girls, would it? Ummm, Bumble Bees.
I sure hope JT stays.

The River Queen!!
The Speakeasy. Wasn't East Grand fun when we were 18?

So...if your dog looks like the 90 year old at church, the dog must be a Blue Doodle. All those women have blue hair.
This Daisy went with the red hair dye rather than the blue.
-
I just got a new dog too. A Golden Doodle. I wanted to name her Coulee, but my husband wanted to name her Daisy. So she is Daisy, named after a 90 year old lady from church that has hair just like her.

Don't get yourself caught up in the "fine ND babes" until you've been down south and have seen the multitudes of fine southern belles that central and eastern North Carolina has to offer. Even SC and Georgia have a million of em. Trust me, Ive lived in ND, NC, and GA, and ND is at the bottom of the list. There are some exceptions though. My ex doesnt fall into that category.....but that was my fault
Gee thanks from a born and raised ND girl.

You must be sitting in my section. This guy might be willing to give up his ticket?
I doubt it. He thinks he owns that section.
You get a piece of his mind if you say anything to him about his attitude. -
I sit in section ### at The Ralph and sometimes I wonder why some so called "fans" even come to the games. There is a guy that constantly gripes about our D. It is so bad that I don't think he even enjoys being there. Yet he has been a season ticket holder for years.
The first year we sat in this section it was "get him off the ice" Lundbohm, then Schneider, Prpich, Green, Smaby, now "go hit him" Lee and "that big pussy" Finley. If I give my tickets away I have to warn those that get them to be ready for the abuse. This guy also never stays for a whole game, no matter what the score is. He will leave after the first period if the team is not playing to his satisfaction. It is so negative that I wondered at first who's side this guy was on (and that is just my section). I think the guys that grow up playing hockey can take the smack, but I do get tired of hearing it as a fan.
I wish the world was more postitive and less negative and that pretty little flowers grew everywhere. Is that what hockey is? Yelling and name calling and disrespect? I see it on this board all the time as well. D-men seem to do best when they are juniors and seniors (if they last that long). Give Brian Lee and Joe Finley a chance. Maybe it is all the griping here and at the rink that bring them to their game.
If so, bring it on.
