I realize that we're human, and we all have faults, and it's not nice to laugh at others lapses' in judgment, lest we make the same mistakes. And yet I can't help but laugh...J.J.

Three down, one to go! I think I speak for all of Raleigh when I say...

LET'S GO CANES!

LET'S GO CANES!

LET'S GO CANES!

LET'S GO CANES!

WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!

I honestly didn't expect a 'Canes sweep in the finals. Even with Roloson gone, I figured Edmonton would go down fighting. But what I didn't expect was a game like tonight's...2-1? Markannen was very good, granted, but only scoring one goal is very unfamiliar territory for Carolina. Hopefully the guys can pick it up next game, as a tied series ( Read more... )

The Hurricanes take the first game of the Stanley Cup finals, 5-4 over Edmonton, coming back from a 3-0 deficit. Awesome game. Brilliant play by Brind'amour, Whitney, Williams, and Cam Ward (despite giving up 4 goals, it could have been a blowout were it not for Ward ( Read more... )

is something that campus planning at State doesn't do very well. Take, as an example, the courtyard behind Talley Student Center. Though I don't spend much time there, it's always been one of my favorite places on campus. It's a calm, green, area, well isolated from the traffic on Dunn by the high wall, with some really nice trees (some old oaks ( Read more... )

The 'Canes are going to the Stanley Cup finals. Great series against Buffalo, both teams played very well. And tonight's game was spectacular. Ended up 4-2, but the last goal was inside the final minute, so essentially a one-goal game, with two lead changes. A classic, and the right team prevailed. They're showing the Prince of Wales trophy on ( Read more... )

Hurricanes 3, Devils 2. Canes now lead the series 3-0...this is good. This is very good.

Say it with me:

WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! WOO WOO WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

Fox. Which is what I encountered as I was leaving EBII earlier. Critter sauntered out from in front of the building as I was heading toward the parking deck. First time I've ever seen one, at least in the wild. He didn't seem to be too concerned that I was there, which made me worry a bit, as I thought they were supposed to be shy. Interesting ( Read more... )

My parents are in town this weekend for my (step)cousin's wedding, which we went to today. Very nice ceremony and reception. So last night, we decided to go to dinner. Left Tripps' around 8:45, hoping to catch some of the 3rd period of the 'Canes-Habs game. However, when I opened the door to my apartment, a cloud of steam drifted out. Not Good ( Read more... )
