Lord of Illusions was great and weird, I haven't seen it in at least 20 years and should really revisit it.

Loved this movie, totally underrated and overlooked. Really fun. I saw it in the theatre when it came out and had no idea what I was in for!

Full credit to the Sens, this one looked like it was going to be ugly early on.

All the best to Linus. I'm aware that my last post before this was literally "he sucks" but it's just a game, he seems like a good dude and I want nothing but the best for him.

He sucks.

But also like you're going to need 3 or 4 goals to have a chance instead of just worrying about the next one. They would never admit it but it can't help but be hard on morale to be playing well defensively but not getting anything for it.

It's both, but in my opinion it starts with the goaltending. It feels like any decent shot against has a 50/50 chance of going in. You can only get punched in the gut so many times before it starts to take the fight out of you. There's the pressure of feeling like you have to be perfect defensively-

Unparalleled success!

When he's not on, Ullmark gives me Martin Gerber vibes. #Sens

I was given an ultimatum.

Look sometimes I just want to remember some guys

Just a little terminology correction here - they're "less lethal" not "less than lethal" - if you take a round in a sensitive area like the eye for example, these rounds can still cause a fatal injury. They're mostly safe but I wouldn't want to get hit by one.

I don't especially blame him on any of the goals but at some point you need a save.

Pierre's legacy will be a mixed one for sure, but what success this team has in the next few years will have his fingerprints all over it.

We should have known right then that confidence in his own abilities would not be a problem.

They were extremely lucky last night, if that's their formula for winning a seven game series... Well, luck is not a plan. The good news is they can be much better, we've all seen it. I think Tampa is probably the toughest match for them out of TB, FLA and TOR.

Keep going, I'm almost there

You're not going to believe this

The way the top 3 in the division have pulled away, it's definitely wild card or bust. Still a lot of teams way too close for comfort.

Side note, I'm glad the Sens don't play the Rangers again, to me that looks like a dangerous team. I think they make it.

He can be that Victor Hedman type - not as mean, maybe - that plays a ton of minutes against top lines and moves the puck out of trouble with ease, all while being a solid pp qb. Championship teams have a guy like that.

Like Richard Dreyfuss with the mashed potatoes, something was telling him to rev up the red.

I don't love it. I don't hate it. It's a big bet, which makes me nervous as I felt like this group was starting to gel. Cozens has been bad for two years now, which makes the fact that he doesn't miss many games kind of irrelevant.

Americans are honestly the dumbest people on earth if they believe this shit. Embarrassing.

Excerpt from a public letter Roald Dahl wrote encouraging people to vaccinate their children.

Olivia, my eldest daughter, caught measles when she was seven years old. As the illness took its usual course I can remember reading to her often in bed and not feeling particularly alarmed about it. Then one morning, when she was well on the road to recovery, I was sitting on her bed showing her how to fashion little animals out of coloured pipe-cleaners, and when it came to her turn to make one herself, I noticed that her fingers and her mind were not working together and she couldn’t do anything.

“Are you feeling all right?” I asked her.

“I feel all sleepy,” she said.

In an hour, she was unconscious. In twelve hours she was dead.

The measles had turned into a terrible thing called measles encephalitis and there was nothing the doctors could do to save her. That was twenty-four years ago in 1962, but even now, if a child with measles happens to develop the same deadly reaction from measles as Olivia did, there would still be nothing the doctors could do to help her.

On the other hand, there is today something that parents can do to make sure that this sort of tragedy does not happen to a child of theirs. They can insist that their child is immunized against measles. I was unable to do that for Olivia in 1962 because in those days a reliable measles vaccine had not been discovered. Today a good and safe vaccine is available to every family and all you have to do is to ask your doctor to administer it.

The measles outbreak in Texas is reminding me of the public letter Roald Dahl wrote about losing his daughter to measles in 1962, just before the vaccine was publicly available.

He really hasn't looked out of place at all in Ottawa, ideal 5-6 guy by the looks of it!
