  1. I don't care how many good reviews he has, I wouldn't do it. You have ZERO protection after your initial agreement is up. Airbnb fees aren't that crazy, especially when spread out over a longer term.
  2. Some crazy predictions here: http://thehockeywriters.com/30-bold-predictions-for-the-upcoming-nhl-season/ Leafs get Carlyle fired, hire Bylsma mid-season and still make the playoffs. And the Red Wings playoff streak ends. Ok then.
  3. Just got back from a weekend in Chicago and saw the Thursday show. Just my .02 as a more casual fan, but I thought the show was nowhere close to good. He got pissed during the opener, (presumably) because of a sound issue and they closed the curtains back up. The first few songs he seemed really pissed off, and there was little flow/energy throughout the first 70 minutes before he left prior to the encore. His 'how many know about John Lee Hooker?' monologue had some idiot near the front yelling 'just shut up and play'! There was so much noodling/medleys/talking. It reminded me of seeing Buddy Guy, who pretty much plays snippets for the 75 minutes he's out there. But Buddy is twice JW's age. The show did seem to get more flow/energy as the night went on, but I don't know if I'd pay to see him again. Go ahead and flame now.
  4. I've been completely hooked since last fall. I bought season tickets to my local team (MN United!), MLS Live subscription, and can't wait for PL to start 4 weeks from tomorrow. Women's WC is in Canada next year. Winnipeg isn't too far away...hmmm......
  5. I can't believe they are all gone. Far too young..... http://variety.com/2014/music/news/tommy-ramone-last-surviving-original-member-of-influential-punk-band-dies-at-65-1201261584/
  6. Don't waste your time with the lowlife, even if he changes his tune about paypal. Western Union?! What a joke.
  7. True, but it also took Germany ET to beat Algeria. Iran parked the bus Can't wait for Sunday!
  8. I've never cared one bit about Waters being involved or not. Absolutely love the post-Waters stuff and feel it's just as worthy of the PF name. As for a tour, I have longshot hopes that Gilmour and Mason will do something. I'd pay good money just to see them one last time.
  9. OMG - 'new' Floyd record in October? YES!!!!! http://consequenceofsound.net/2014/07/pink-floyd-to-release-new-album-the-endless-river-in-october/
  10. I think Brazil will still find a way but what do i know.
  11. It sounds like you're already doing what you can. The first thing I learned from my better half when she comes home upset is that I don't need to try and provide answers. More often than not it's fine to just be there when she's venting. Sometimes our instinct is to try and make everything better with solutions but they aren't always welcomed The biggest thing she can do is keep her head up and try to be patient. Nobody should expect her to know everything just yet, so realize that she will get there in time. As for nobody knowing what she's supposed to be doing, hopefully she's ok with asking her supervisor/manager what her priorities should be and setting up something of a routine. There is nothing wrong with being assertive and communicating any concerns she has - it's a two way street, and hopefully the new employer wants her to be comfortable. Maybe have a quick check-in each morning with her boss to establish tasks for the day. Two days isn't enough imo to write a place off. I hope it turns around for the better!
  12. I thought the last CBA prohibited the front-loading, but that must be the Kovalchuk-type of stuff, not Gaborik's deal.
  13. A damn shame they couldn't get Pat Burns in while he was still alive.
  14. I think it's smart for established companies to do this sometimes. They get to gauge demand for something with little or no risk. Many of the Kickstarter backers don't know (or care) if they have the means to launch the product without it, they just like being backers.
  15. Saw the tour opener last night. No 12" vinyl....yet. Merch guy said that it's on the way though, so it sounded like they'll have it in a few days wherever they are on tour. Basically blamed RSD for fucking everything up. As for the 7" /500 sold in Portland, last month no dice on those either.
  16. High heels usually aren't a good idea on ice
  17. 2 Cups in 3 seasons - enjoy it! That was an amazing game..... LA/Chicago have such a good core/coaching that they could be trading off for a few years still.
  18. Pia Toscano is not hard to look at. I wish Bob Miller was calling this game. It's over tonight.
  19. The rug on the Rangers anthem singer is quality. About 10 chipmunks died for that thing.
