Conflicted

I tend to be a very happy guy, so part of me hates posting things like this, but then again it's healthy to talk about stuff that makes you uncomfortable...

3 days ago my wife called me from work (she works in a hospital). An old co-worker of hers had come in to the ER with an infection and ended up not making it (apparently she didn't have a spleen to help fight the infection). She was 30 years old (same age as my wife) had a 3 year old and a 4 month old (our kids are 20 months...

Well, I should know better than to post a streak anywhere... We got crushed last night in hockey (lost 9-2 despite leading for half the game). Not a complete collapse until late in the game, but so much for going undefeated.

No big deal really, but we look to get back on the winning side of things with 2 games this coming weekend.

Is it sad that I find more to post on my hockey team than design lately? Stuck in monotonous image processing for a little while trying...

1st Place

Our hockey team won again last night making us 5-0-1 on the season putting us in first place for the first time ever. Not bad for a team that finished 4th in the league last year and 8th the year before.

We've really gelled as a team and seem to be digging down and catching a break. Most teams have at least 1 stand-out player and our team is kind of the exception, solid defense and goal tending combined with a hard-nosed offense that might not be flashy, but keeps the pressure on....

Reputation Points

Posted 11-01-2007 at 05:24 PM by stiney51 (The Not-So-Secret Life of an Aging Hockey Player)

Now I don't really care about reputation points on here, it's nice to know people think you're helpful, but beyond that, I've seen people with huge reputation points that really don't contribute as much as others with lower reputation points.

In any case, I happen to look down today and noticed my reputation points as of this post stand at 51.

I just thought I'd take a moment to celebrate such a great number.

The Elusive 6th Star

Posted 10-23-2007 at 12:39 PM by stiney51 (The Not-So-Secret Life of an Aging Hockey Player)

I have about 3000 songs in my iTunes right now and about 2000 of them are rated by me on a 5-star scale (mind you I've deleted a lot of 1 star songs too):

1 Star (Going to be deleted 'cause I'll never listen to it)
2 Stars (not horrible, but don't care for it either, ok to shuffle through)
3 Stars (decent song, kind of a catch all good song category)
4 Stars (very good song)
5 Stars (Great song)

Now it's relatively easy for a song to obtain...
