I work at a bank. I'm sure I'll probably get to work from home tomorrow. Though I hate doing it. The connection is slow and I'm spoiled and used to having 2 monitors.

Divine has done just fine with scouting since Pegula $$$ went into effect.

Grigroenko (although circumstance of a fall), Girgensons, McCabe, Ullmark, Ristolainen, Zadarov, Compher, Hurley, Bailey, Baptiste, Possler.... These guys would easily be top 5 prospects on any team.

Ullmark?

I bought a storage locker 3 weeks ago. There was 3 paternity tests all taken one after the other.
None were the father.
3 Happy men.

I used a lot of bleach on that locker

Do you actually find anything good in them? Always wondered cause im sure those storage war type shows are stagged.

There was an article about that earlier last year... Basically saying that it was staged.

Any time a "reality" TV show has interviews with the cast members I assume it is staged.

The worst shows are Moonshiners and Duck Dynasty. Incredibly scripted.

they are definitely staged. I'll try finding the article that proves it. Regardless, I still enjoy watching for historic facts. The items are real; they just aren't 'found' there

on average it's triple the money, with quite a bit of work

60% is trash
35% is yard sale/flea market stuff
5% is craigslist, ebay stuff


I bought 11 lockers in 10 weeks, when I started to do this more as a side business instead of a hobby.

One locker cost $100 and I got $1200 yard sale crap, signed racing helmet (got $400 for that), 3 refractometers (got $1300 for them) and a bottle that I may get $500, may get 5k for

Another locker, paid $150 for it, got $600 worth of stuff and an acrylic case with 13 autographed baseballs. One ball is a tiger team ball from the late 40's, one is a dodger team ball from the early 80's. I have to get autographs certified next month to get the value on them.

Other then that it's pretty much work and triple your money. Very few treasures.

Basically any reality show is.... The new show in Nashville coming out will be also.
I was dating a photographer/video editor that has connections to the show.


This is a small city: Everyone has a connection to a singer/songwriter/producer/etc... down here.



And don't come down and sing Karaoke if you cant sing... Everyone and their mother (besides me) can sing.

- homiedclown


I dont understand what youre kidding about... he wouldnt be top 5? another swedish goalie? Ryan Miller?

Ullmark is easily a top 10 goalie prospect with the way hes been playing for MODO. Hes on the 4th worst team and has a 1.99 and .933 in 20G. Possler was the leading scorer before he went down with knee injury.

so most units arent "expensive" are most in that range? Ur the first person Ive heard actually do it

Disappointed that he wasnt able to play WJC. Sweden wouldve been even better. And 15/16 is when we get Kane.

who has easier time off?
- hubie


Why banking specifically though? This is our annual Holiday schedule that follows the Federal Reserve. 10 days isn't that crazy - then offset them by all the garbage weekends we have to work. And in fact many departmants where I am only get the 4 major Holidays.

New Year's Day
Birthday of Martin Luther King, Jr.
Washington's Birthday
Memorial Day
Independence Day
Labor Day
Columbus Day
Veterans Day
Thanksgiving Day
Christmas Day

I am not into furniture or renting u hauls


Either I rent the locker for a month or take 4 trips to the house and dump it in my living room.

One locker went for $2250. It was about 150 boxes with best buy logo on the box. Each box was about 2 foot by 2 foot by 3 foot

every box was empty

Are they held like you see on TV? They throw the door open and you can look from the entrance but not touch anything or step inside?

I think it all depends on what happens in Chicago this year and next. If they win another cup, or he wins the Art Ross I think he is as good as done there. However he could also stay a Hawk his entire career why come home and deal with the pressure of playing in your home town?

as does the people that make a "living" from it

I know what the future mrs does and on top of getting all the time off the job isnt all that stressful. Teaching is super stressful and MIlitary during war time is tough.
