[MENTION=13739]Velmont[/MENTION] and [MENTION=54810]renau1g[/MENTION]: I found some 20 year old balsamic vinegar. I have some pretty good quality vanilla Ice Cream and a small pack of blackberries. I know what is for dessert to night!

Very nice. Let us know how it turns out!

Hmm....I don't see ads. Lucky me

I see them...War of the Burning Sky, Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood, etc, etc. I think if you get out of them if you are a Community Supporter.

I have learned to ignore the ads and I have a little button to shut off the sound.

Tell me what you think of it after tasting that. I like that dessert during a hot day of summer.

So.... are you all geared up for tonight's game Vel? The first Vancouver game was pretty good last night and the Montreal/Boston series is the one I'm most looking forward to in this first round.

I really wish we had an NHL team here locally. Our minor league team kinda sucks. At least I can watch on TV though. Always been a Red Wings fan.

I'm just across the river from Detroit, you cna see Joe Louis arena from our side of the river too.

You might be able to pick up the Phoenix Coyotes for pennies on the dollar if you can round up a few millionaire buddies

Funny that Jim Balsillie offered $242.5M for them just a year and a half ago, they're now looking at a $170M offer and that hinges on the city of Glendale will be required to pay the new owner $100M and an additional $97M over the next 5 years to manage the arena...for a team that has lost $40M this last year...glad to see the taxpayers picking up the tab. Thankfully the Goldwater Institute (conservative public watchdog) has threatened a lawsuit for violating Arizona's laws against excessive public subsidies.

"Goldwater said even taking the guarantee into account, the fees to be paid to Hulsizer plus the cost of borrowing to make the bond sale “would still leave taxpayers on the hook for as much as $362-million, "

Yeah...that makes sense...I'm sure the taxpayers in Glendale couldn't find a better use of $360+ million dollars...

I've got a few...and one lives in Phoenix. Maybe I should ask him?

It is such a ridiculous situation. If the team can't make money in the city, then they need to move!
