I was born my papa's son When I hit the ground I was on the run

Conscience was related Man he was created Lady luck took him by surprise A sweet and bitter fruit it surely opened his eyes

I love to feel the rain in the summertime I love to feel the rain on my face

Thanks for sharing. My favorite Q/A was : Q: How much is for the sound and how much is for the humor? A: Both, the goal here is entertainment.

Yup, it's remarkable: https://www.mlb.com/news/opening-day-wins-by-mlb-team-c268497122 LAMP alert, read on at your own discretion. Had to fact check my memory, but in 1990 I was at one of the losses - and it was brutal. Gooden started and got clobbered by Andy Van Slyke (great player) and the Pirates. It was a full day for me and my friends as we went straight from Shea Stadium to the Nassau Coliseum for an Islanders/Rangers playoff game. The game went to OT and I remember being so exhausted (two pre-game tailgates in one day) that I just wanted the game to end. Of course it went to double OT so I had to stay awake through the 15 minute intermission and then the Isles won 59 seconds into the second OT. I was more relieved it was over than overjoyed at the win. P.S. - just checked the box score and holy crap that Pirates team was loaded: Bonds, Bonilla, Jay Bell, Wally Backman, Sid Bream, Jose Lind and Mike LaValierre. Leyland was the manager.

If I agree to what comes next I would be faking with the best of them It seems a crime I would commit Without the difference of all the world's gifts Sweet, sweet, sweet Could you taste it?

Q: Why do you keep banging your head against the wall? A: Because it feels so good when I stop.

I'm definitely in that camp - even though I haven't driven a stick in 20+ years. My kids noticed that I still keep my right hand on the shift when I drive.

The very first car I bought only came equipped with a manual transmission. I was fretting about buying a car I couldn't actually drive until my mother told me that she learned to drive with a stick. My father had to drive the car off the lot.

Pulp Friction was a different movie

As Good As It Gets

Finally one I know - Pulp Fiction - well played tie in to OP - and that movie has as many great quotes as any other I can think of.

@Gugny @Another Fan @ExWNYer Can't believe Opening Day is tomorrow. As much as I love baseball the season starts too early and ends too late IMO. Happy to see they chose the more versatile Locastro over Ruf - but I fully expect Ruf to have a much better year at the plate than last year - hopefully in the AL. Projected roster doesn't include Alvarez, Baty, Vientos or Mauricio. Vogelbach looks like the backup at 1B and Guillorme backs up 2B, SS and 3B. And in late breaking news Daniel Murphy will be playing for the Long Island Ducks this year. Ducks are our local independent team, manager is Wally Backman, pitching coach is Nelson Figueroa and apparently Murph will be reunited with Ruben Tejada.

I was living in a funky world They were living in three four time All my friends are into rock and roll Or they ain't no friends of mine I'm a down and out man Guess you wonder why I am

It's as simple as something that nobody knows That her eyes are as big as her bubbly toes On the feet of a queen of the hearts of the cards Feet are infested with tar balls and La-da-da-da-da-da

Crawling from the wreckage, crawling from the wreckage You'd think by now at least That half a brain would get the message Crawling from the wreckage, crawling from the wreckage Into a brand new car

Well in my perfect world every team I root for would be like the Isles from the Cup years - high end skill on offense and defense and toughness too. But that's rare.

LOL, I have no problem with winning by way of three yards and a cloud of dust either. I'm more interested in winning than I am with style points - and I also think that high scoring football and hockey games are a joke. But I get that I'm probably in the minority on all of this.

I was waiting for my hearse What came next was so much worse It took a funeral to make me feel alive Just open your eyes, just open your eyes And see that life is beautiful Will you swear on your life That no one will cry at my funeral?

Isles fan here so first off congrats on the dub. Road shutouts aren't easy to come by. As to the boring hockey, meh. Lamoriello's teams have been defense/goalie-first dating back to his Devils teams. It's a great formula for post-season but can be tough to maintain regular season. Isles have been very competitive since Lou took over and from where I sit it hasn't been boring hockey at all.
