(This was originally posted as an entry to a Hockey Wilderness First Round Prediction Competition. However they have a rule that says Europeans aren't actually allowed to win. Apparently Don Cherry...
Sadly, due to such things as Geographical Constraints, "Rules" and my Complete Lack Of Knowledge, there is no way that my entry into this competition is anything but a futile gesture, doomed to...

Hello, Rangers Fans. here's my "Farewell" to John Scott from SCH.. and an idea of what you've just acquired...
So it ends. Right before the Trade Deadline Big John Scott moved faster than he ever has in his entire life as he was traded to the New York Rangers for a bag of pucks Fifth Round Draft Pick. This...
(Ho-ho.. bet THAT got your attention, eh, HFBUZZLEVEL pals? This is an example of what my friends who "know" about computing call "Virolgical Marketplacing", where you say something sensational...
Well, we've had a good run.. I've measured out my days in GDTs and PGTs.. been there Atop the Sugar Pile, there for the DLRs and also the Fffffffucks and Ffffffights. Not kiddding, I'm going to...

Memes: a fancy new way of saying "Running Joke". SCH is riddled with them, some timeless, some less so. Of course, in the process of this entire blog's steady retreat from conversing in anything...
