Hopes Dashed... Hockey Lockout = No Fantasy Hockey League?
Random posting, probably... but I'm absolutely bummed about the Hockey Lockout. Even more bummed as I hoped to play Fantasy Hockey for the first time. Here's hoping for something to be solved by December so we can at least have half a season of hockey... until then? It's gonna be watching the KHL on ESPN!

Not only did I climb a volcano crater... I conquered a mount
At the end of 2011... I decided I would create a Bucket List of sorts for 2012, the things that I would make sure and do before 2012 was over.
