Glad to see that you've earned respect from other people around here (besides otto and I ) for your posts! Great job as always!

Grr...I re-sent you that link yesterday b/c it seemed to be working (the pictures were coming up), but I just rechecked the link and we're back to a blank page w/ a border. ): I probably will just send you them separately then, prob on Thurs so I can tell you about my library job @ the same time!

Happy birthday! It's my birthday too; a bit older than you but not much!

Happy birthday...it's my birthday too! (I'm a little younger than you though! ).

Happy Thanksgiving to you too...even though mine was a month and a half ago lol! .

Have you seen the pics of Roli's new mask? What did you think? I see from TC pics that he's got a pretty intense mullet going there.

He said his cat(s)disappeared all the time, sometimes for weeks at a time, and they never worried b/c they knew they'd be back. So as long as he keeps coming back for food and I know I'm doing everything I can to make sure he's taken care of, I'll try not to stress too much.

He was 3rd star on NHL.com last night too! Definitely happy for him that he helped the team to the break on a high note, and now he'll have a well-earned break w/his family! Did you see the Khabi vs. Dubs article in the EJ yesterday? Pretty interesting; nice to see that we're definitely not the only ones who are no longer on the "'Bulin-wagon"!

Hello from London! Made it here safe and sound; definitely a bit of a hassle in a way mainly b/c a bunch of the tube stations were on strike today, but it was definitely a good way to be resourceful and practice asking people for help. Lots more news and stories to come; hope you're well!

Hey from a fellow B.C.'er! I like the Mariners too!

Hey on the Score tonight (you guys get that there, right?) they had a little "segment" (more like a commercial really) called "Canada's Best", and Roli was their featured player!

Hey stranger, long time not talk! Hope you've been well. I'm sure you're happy to see too that Roli had a good first game despite the loss...hopefully that'll help him get more starts this year! Keep in touch, miss you!

Hey, apparently this was Roli's 500th career game! Too bad the guys couldn't hang on and get the win for him, but obviously he gave them the chance to win. Nice to see that he isn't feeling too hard on himself about it.

Hey, are you able to watch Roli's games vs. TO on Sportsnet there? Guess that's one good thing about being back lol! I'm so happy for him and the start he's having to the year; hopefully he's still making Tambi regret his refusal to give him the extra year

Hey, did you see Roli's "report card" article from Lighthouse Hockey? Pretty good read. I had to smile at the "beloved curmudgeon" title; at least they said beloved! I don't care what anyone else says, he seems like a pretty positive guy to me, but I guess not everyone sees him that way.

Hey, did you see Roli's new roster pic on the Isles' main site? Not a great one this year. But he's a good guy and I'm sure he'll have a good season, so that's all that matters! Sounds like everyone is pretty DP-obsessed right now, but hopefully Roli isn't worrying about that too much and is looking forward to the start of the season.

Hey, did you see the Newsday article posted today? Pretty sweet! Here's the link:

(Hope it works w/in the comment box lol...if not I can resend it as a PM ). Nothing particularly new or surprising here, but always nice to see people giving him his due not only for

Hey, did you watch Sportscentre last night? Roli's two saves were the HON, and he was also in the Top 10 list for "Best individual games of 2009"... the Toronto game of course!

Hey, forgot to ask in my PM earlier, how did you get the "Roloholics Anonymous" in your profile info? I couldn't figure out which box to put it in. ):

Hey, happy "Nova Scotia Day" (or are you guys just "Civic Holiday"?). Thanks for posting that Roli article from his hometown paper; again nothing surprising or unexpected, but it's always nice to see him have such a positive attitude about everything, and focusing on the team rather than himself.

Hey, hope you got to watch the Habs/Bolts game tonight and see Roli's highlight-reel save! Too bad the guys couldn't reward that w/ a W for him, but obviously he's still playing well!

Hey, I got a library job finally! I forget if I told you that I have a library technician background (basically, classifying library materials), and I'll be working in a smallish library at an engineering firm. It's only once a week to start, plus the program I'll be using seems really straightforward, so a good place to start. So it should be good! BTW, in my last commen

Hey, I got some of my pictures up in better quality on FB! Do you want me to e-mail them to you, or just send you the link on here? Poor Roli...good game wasted again b/c of no goal support. ): He seemed pretty positive in his PG though so that was good. Hopefully it bodes well for him in terms of getting more starts at least!

Hey, I just noticed that Dubs and Roli are 1st and 3rd star respectively tonight on nhl.com! Nice!

Hey, I recognize you from the OMB! You're a Roli fan too, I assume? It's so great to see people continuing to respect and support him.
