The Dude dances alot to keep nice and svelte.

And that toolbelt must do wonders for your hips!

Can't recall ever talking to an American about my weight. When you buy clothes or swimsuits in SanD, they ask for your size and your height so I know that 174 cm is "five eight" in American. And size is a total farce since it varies widely depending on the garment, where it was made, and who they're trying to sell it to. And if you get drinking age ID, make sure the photo is a reasonably close likeness.

Okay, so admittedly I'm a science nerd, but when every station gives the temp in C and all the road signs are in KM and bathroom scales are in KG, why on earth would you persist in using the old units?

Uh.....because I'm old?

One more question: why do they need to know your height to buy a swimsuit?

 

[Jets 31]

My guess would be that's needed for a one piece swimsuit, bikini you wouldn't but bikini's are nice.

 

[BoneDocUK]

Another classic GDT, @macmaroon!

Moonshot game, but an injury-free clean win would be the icing on the ol' gateau...

C'mon, Jerts -- let's keep this switch set to...

OOOOOOONNNNNNNN!!!!!

For a better fit, of course. Not all of my swimsuits are bikinis.

Heading out the door in a rush to catch a bus, so a quick c+p for you:


One of the great injustices for tall women is the lack of in-store clothing options. Over the years, our options for reliably good fashion with longer inseams and properly proportioned sleeves and waists have expanded thanks to online shopping, but in-store collections have yet to catch up—and that is, unfortunately, never truer than when shopping for elusive long-torso bathing suits.
Many sites offer robust collections for the 5’8”-and-taller set, but the sad fact remains that most of our wardrobes must be purchased on the depths of the Internet—the in-store options are severely lacking.

I love a bikini as much as the next girl, but lately, I’ve been drawn to the siren song of the one-piece. Unfortunately, standard sizing for one-pieces doesn’t really accommodate the long expanse from my hips to my shoulders. If I’m lucky, I’ve got a mild camel-toe situation. Worst case scenario: The straps will dig into my shoulders, and any breast padding will inevitably settle an inch or so lower than it should. Plus, I’m probably rocking some kind of wedgie. Not exactly what one might consider a bathing beauty.

Adjustable straps and ruching are the banes of my existence as a tall woman. Sites will write about those features as if they are real solutions, completely ignoring the fact that they don’t change the ratio of the rest of the suit to accommodate long torsos and taller women. Darts and leg openings never fall exactly where they should, and necklines just stretch out and cause strain on our necks. (This is especially true of “adjustable” halter styles). We deserve better!

Let's finish this road trip in style.

Yup make a good road trip into a great road trip.

 

[Potrzebie]

People need to stop calling a guy with a career 0.905 "Big Save" anything.

On being given the nickname...

“I heard it first time, two days ago,” Rittich grinned after Monday’s 7-2 shellacking of the Vegas Golden Knights at the Saddledome. “It’s nice if someone give me this nickname, but it’s another nickname. I probably have some nicknames from last year — ‘Terrible, Terrible Dave’ or something like that.”

I'll call Big Save Dave Big Save Dave all I like, thank you very much.

I also call him Big Sieve Dave when the occasion warrants.

That being said I hope Big Save Dave has a great game tonight!

Pavelac junior ……..

Ouch! You cruel bastard!

Holey shit i was right.

You know what they say. Even a stopped Dude is right twice a day!

.907 is the Pavelac line
Big sieve is currently rockin a .906

 

[Stumbledore]

Looking at the Canes GDT (yeah, serious boredom here) and they make it sound like we really have a chance.

Sadly, Stasny is a healthy scratch tonight.

 

[Jets 31]

Tonight would be a great night to do this Scheifele.

 

[Eyeseeing]

Well then…..
Time to open the bar

haven't scored in couple games, and just lost svech for the year is probably why

 

[Aggie204]

I would love to see a reaction video from other team boards when they read ours. We have a poet obsessed with prehistoric chum, the grumpiest of grumps, the Dude who communicates in gifs, a relative new comer to the city whose made me break out the dictionary a couple of times, legendary GDT creator(s), Floridians, a rodent on steroids, Office worker with a thing for staplers, a couple of wing nuts and gambling degenerates. Truly a gaggle of misfits.

Where do I fit in? Wing nut?

I prefer Island of Misfit Toys

I am partial to the monkey!

 

[KingBogo]

That's too bad. Hope Morrissey's injury doesn't linger too long.

Maybe the Canes thought Stasny would score a goal for the Jets.

 

[bustamente]

I never take what the Jets say about injuries at face value, they never have given a straight answer, Joshua might ne back on Thursday or maybe the Thursday after, PLD could return soon or maybe he has played his last game as a Jet.

This board can also simultaneously, discuss in one thread how bad it was to waive a defenseman who would have been 7/8 on our depth chart this season, but in another thread discuss how we need to trade a Vezina goalie and our 2 top centers and start over. The 1st thing is absolutely meaningless if the 2nd thing comes to pass.
