This article is great, describes the wings perfectly throughout. Once I started reading I hit a couple things and thought I would add as “quotes” posts. But there are just too many telling of how awesome the wings are!

Week Upgrade
So on Sunday I had a hockey game, which was nice since we skipped last week and don’t play this week either. But I think the hiatus drastically reduced my skills to what seemed like nothing. I couldn’t score if my life depended on it, and even when I played well in short spirts the best I could get was the post. So after a game of built up frustration, I was glad to have it over with.

Lidstrom, Datsyuk must sit out wings next game →
This is rather outrageous. They opted out of participating (from what I gathered) and they are being punished and not able to plan in a game that actually matters. The all-star weekend is suppose to be fun, relaxing and I would say most certainly optional. The events that occur over this weekend should not hinder the regular season! Oh well, nothing we can do about it now.

Van Morrison - Into the Mystic
I support America.
spareunderthemat:
I’m always proud to be an American. Every day. Not just on days we make history with a first (half) black President or we get a President you finally love. Get over yourself. If there is a day you aren’t proud to live in this country, please, leave. We are better without you.
Agreed. Go America!!
NHL Skills comp. Breakaway Contest
The line-up:
Alexander Ovechkin (Capitals, 23)
Ryan Getzlaf (Ducks, 23)
Sidney Crosby (Penguins, 21)
Alex Kovalev (Canadiens, 35)
Patrick Kane (Blackhawks, 20)
This should be an excellent competition. I have no idea how Datsyuk didn’t get nominated though, aside from Ovechkin he has the sickest moves. I’m still looking forward to the game and skills comp. Having Ovechkin, Malkin...

Vitaminwater Marketing Prompts Suit →
I read awhile ago in MensHealth this stuff was crap and have steered clear since.
“The group said Coke markets Vitaminwater as a healthful alternative to soda and said the company makes a range of assertions, including claims that the drinks variously reduce the risk of chronic disease and support immune function. The nonprofit’s nutritionists say the levels of sugar in the drinks...
Office of Government Commerce
The story looks a bit old, but I just found it and got a laugh.
The Office of Government Commerce, “OGC”, in the UK decided to rebrand itself. The logo was changed, and didn’t turn out to be quite as awesome as they planned, well at least for the reasons they planned. It’s still awesomely hilarious. Refer to below…

Kid must be pretty lame. Certainly a gossip queen whose future will surely land here on realhouse wives of (fill in gated-community name) talking shit about her “friends” behind their back at 50.
