Second Period Thread – Game 4 – Hawks at Scum
You stick to your story. Every story has someone that they stick to. You pay for your glory. Everybody has someone they aspire to. And I aspire to you. But I won’t follow you. To live a life untrue.

Hang up and listen. You found your direction and cut the line. Night flight to Paris. You’d rather leave than lose your sight.

Queens of the Damned: Winging it in Motown, Abel to YzermanFinally, the hour is nearly upon us. Approximately 15 minutes after the horn sounded ending Game 3, I was ready for Game 4. I doubt I was hardly alone with that thinking. And so here we are.
We’ve had plenty of time to beat the dead horses that were Game’s 2 and 3 and the narratives have already been decided by the powers that be. The Blackhawks are the President Trophy winning team unable to match the “will” or “intensity” of those pesky Red Wings. Meanwhile, no matter what the stat sheet says from this point forth, the Red Wings have found a way to shut down the Blackhawks vaunted attack. Should the Hawks win, it was just what was supposed to happen all along.

Beard Of The Day – May 23 – Josh Homme
In the pantheon of rock and roll, there are few if any artists out there who are as intimidating for manifold reasons as Queens Of The Stone Age front man Josh Homme. A mountain of a man who occasionally dons a ginger (these days with a fair amount of salt mixed in) beard, Homme’s brazen personality is backed up fully by the music he puts out.

Tactical Nuclear Penguin: What Should The Hawks Change?
I’ve never had Tactical Nuclear Penguin. I’m sure it’s not as fun to drink as it is to say. But then, how could it be? I’ll let the beer geeks nerd out in the comments about it.
Anyway, while I and a large swath of Hawks fans think the Hawks really only have to repeat Game 3’s performance (fort the most part) to win Game 4, Q is going to have to make a couple adjustments here and there to make things a bit smoother. Of course, he’s not going to do anything I’m about to suggest because they are far too logical because I’m just that smart and so smart that no prison could handle me and I’m so handsome that I once looked at a taxi cab and it turned to mash potatoes. And I ate it.
But back at the ranch….

Beard Of The Day – May 22nd – BMO Harris Bank Guy
Sometimes we choose a beard because we’re huge fans of their work. Sometimes it’s because they are an inspiration. Sometimes because it’s a funny choice. Sometimes because it’s appropriate for the occasion.
And sometimes because we just really like a dude’s beard. And I just really think this guy has a nice beard.
Not really sure why the uploader decided to bring race into it.. but whatever. (Please don’t go read the comments on Youtube… yikes)

Beard Of The Day – May 21st – Walt Whitman (For real this time)
Well, since I teased out the fact that our boy Whitman was a potential candidate for a BotD yesterday, which I’m sure a few of you noticed, I figured we might as well give the man our respect today. Whitman’s first major work was Leaves of Grass, which he started writing in the mid 1840’s, first published in 1855 and continued to update and edit until his death in 1892.
