The Rangers had a bad day.

I watched the Bruins beat the living daylights out of the Rangers this afternoon. It looked like they were playing a high school team.

With a final score of 10-2, they earned the two points and moved back to 5^th place in the division.

Oh, and I should point out that I missed most of the first period because I was napping.

Naps are great.

The NFL wild card weekend kicks off today with the Rams & Panthers at 4:30 followed by the Packers & Bears at 8:00.

The big day is tomorrow with the Bills & Jaguars at 1:00. the 49ers & Eagles at 4:30 and finally, the big game, the Chargers & Patriots at 8:00.

Between my advanced years and this flu, the chances of me watching any of that 8:00 game are pretty slim.

Believe me, I'll try to watch as much of it as possible but I'm a realist and I probably won't make it past 7:00 before falling asleep on the couch.

Time for a nap.

Here are some links:

• The Yankees aren't even mentioned.



• Our state government thinks the "T" goes all the way to Pittsfield and we all have access to public transportation.



• WTF!



• Man, we are blowing everybody up.



• Arnold Schwarzenegger has a great sense of humor.

Let's try this again

I'm overjoyed to announce that our third grandchild arrived last night.

She is a cutie and we are proud grandparents.

My daughter-in-law is doing well and the baby is healthy & happy. My son has been puked on and pooped on so he's been quickly inducted into fatherhood.

I did not watch any of the Bruins game last night. I fell asleep on my couch and woke up well after the game was over.

I was pleased to learn this morning that the Bruins managed to beat the Flames 4-1.

They are still way out of playoff contention but at least they won and they might still have a chance.

⧫
Yes, I am still napping a lot.

I have not had the flu like this for a very long time and it is really beating the crap out of me. Fortunately, I don't have a fever anymore but the snot keeps on flowing and I've lost my voice. In order to communicate with mey wife, I find it easier to just text her...

The alleged experts are making predictions about the upcoming wild card weekend and as of right now, several of them have the Patriots winning 24-20.

Here are my predictions:

I will not be able to stay awake long enough to watch the entire game.
Josh McDaniels will have some plays for Maye that will dazzle the Chargers vaunted defense.
Maye will throw the ball well.
The Patriots will win the game.

These have been my predictions.

Here are some links:

• Man, he really, really, really wants that prize.



• It's a pretty good bet that either alcohol or drugs were involved.



• I trust nothing online. I don't even trust this.



• Kawasaki’s Robot Horse sounds a lot like the Segway - it'll be gone in less than two years.

Oops

I fell asleep on the couch before I got around to clicking save. Here is last nights posting in all it's glory:

I feel like crap

At some point, I'm going to waste away to nothing because my body is producing more snot than I thought possible.

I'm thinking my head must weigh around 100 pounds just from the jammage in my sinuses.

So the bottom line here is, no, I don't feel well and I did not spend any time on the internets. I spent it napping.

⧫
The Bruins take on the Flames tonight and since the puck drops at 7:00, I might be able to watch some of the game.

They are in need of some wins because right now, they suck. The Kraken kicked their ass the other day, beating them 7-4 and pushing them further down in the standings.

As thing look right now, if they keep playing like they are, they will not be playing hockey in April...

Someone has released the name of the ICE officer that shoot and killed that woman in Minnesota.

That is a bad thing.

Look, no one should die for protesting but she also should not have stepped on that accelerator, running her car towards the guy. She made several really bad decisions and it resulted in her death.

The guy that shot her had less than a second to decide if she was a threat and react. He did just that and it ended poorly for her. Releasing his name puts him in the spotlight. It paints a target on him and that is bad.

I'm going to bed early.

Here are a couple of links:

• First it was Mad Marge that turned against him. Now it's Bobbin Boeberts turn.



• I was wondering when they would get around to firing him.

I feel like crap

I no longer have a 103° fever. It is holding steady at 100°.

My bones ache and I have a major sinus headache.

I don't have anything for you today because I have been napping most of the day.

I also rebuilt the busted VPN for the animal clinic but I stopped working on it when it occurred to me that I had done the same step three times...

I will be going to bed early tonight.

Okay, I'm done bitching now.

Here are some links:

• There are going to be riots over this.



• Now they are calling it "a crisis"...



• This seems to be happening a lot lately.

Remember?

Remember when a large group of individuals, under the influence of their cult leader, stormed the U.S. Capital building, broke in and trashed the place?

Remember the cop being crushed in the doorway?

Remember this ass-clown?

Remember these idiots who don't know how to use stairs?

I wanted to remind you in case you didn't remember.

Turns out that the head cold I told you I had isn't a head cold. It's the goddamned flu.

Every year I get a flu shot because about 15 years ago, I had a really nasty flu and ended up in the emergency room with 104°+ body temp.

Well, I got the shot this year and it didn't do shit. I woke up this morning sporting a 103° body temp and a raging headache caused by the 20 pounds of snot jammed into my sinuses.

For the record, naps are the best things ever and Tylenol is a wonder drug.
