I'm pretty sure Ruthie is not going to put up with any brawling at this dinner party...

How can you be in two places at once, when you're not anywhere at all ?

So save the brawling for the after party!

So.... ninja-sneezers vs goalies? The goalies have pads and a big stick, the ninjas are stealthy.

Plus we have the advantage that we're a little bit crazy, so we've got that going for us. Four out of five of the voices in my head tell me the goalie would win. And that fifth voice is just a pouty little pessimist anyhow. So I like my odds.

1) It very well could have been the fur from your goalie pads.
2) After our dinner, you know damn well that I'm at least as unbalanced as any goalie out there, if not even more so.
3) Ruthie's taking bets, so PM her to get in on the action.

My money would have to be on NinjaNoNo... I mean, what do goalies do except stand there and try to fill as much of the goal as possible (hence the big pads & stick). The ninja would be in, sneezed and gone before the goalie could even turn around..!

Heh...

This message came through on my email from MINI Forums Mailer, and Eudora reported it with 2 chili peppers: "This message is probably offensive."

Maybe it can read your mind...

It's a shame I don't have a clue what your all ranting about, but you can PM me anyway - just for the fun of it.

Interesting theory, but I've ditched the "old school" gear, my stuff is all shiny modern, no deer hair required. Close but no cigar, my dear. But the old school goalie from my Monday night league has been nursing a leg injury of late, so perhaps it was him you winged.

I can't argue with you there.

Any word on how the odds are? What's my over/under?

Oooo, them's fightin' words. We're gonna have to drag your butt up here and throw you in net some night. I've got a friend with a spare set of gear. No problem. We'd get you all suited up, throw you out there, and see what happens. C'mon, it would be fun for the whole family...

Sure, stealth is on her side, she's smaller and she sneezes more quietly. But the key, my young learner, is to know the ninja's weaknesses. If you can stop 'em if their tracks with some chicken alfredo or a bocci-themed desert, then it's advantage: goalie.

A bocci-themed dessert..? Sounds, um, interesting. Does it involve flinging your dessert the length of the room to land it closest to some other object??

I'd be no good as a goalie (though I could fill a lot of the goal even without the gear) as I can barely stand up on skates. Same with skis... I think it's too late to learn once you get to my age, and we didn't get snow much where I grew up. The nearest ice rink was more than 80 miles away (until the opened the newer one 40 miles away and hockey was a game played on grass anyway!

I skated some when I was a kid, but took lessons at 42. I'm a very slow speed skater, but I like it a lot.

First rule- don't fall down
2nd- don't hold onto the wall
3rd- don't take out any small children
4th- don't let any small children take you out! (I learned to watch which kids went with which parents to anticipate the beeline across my path)

I wear a helmet. I have "Derek-like tendencies" (2 concussions with parked cars, need I say more?) But I really like skating a lot.

I can see where a lot of the recent conversation is a mystery to most people.

We haven't heard what NinjaNinja's battle outfit looks like, which might change the odds. Especially if it's similar to her driving outfit.

If it's a full set of ICE-hockey goalie gear, it'll affect the odds considerably..!
