Let people mourn, don't be disrespectful and don't make it about YOU! Can you flag them? Is it someone you know? <br /><br />As for Storytellers, I am down!

Thanks for stopping by....@O - Agreed, it always is. Thanks for stopping by. And yes, I can only imagine how long that puppy took!<br />@Paul - it can be. Your best friend and your worst enemy. Ohhh, those anon ones kill me. Like grow a pair and tell who you are! Isn't is awesome. I was amazed in the store. That SHOULD be a national holiday, haha. <br />@SFlaGuy - so true, great way to put it. Well I am glad you liked it, thanks for having my back. Haha, seriously. Wonder if a cop would pull you over in that!?<br />@iZombie - haha, well thanks Jeremy! Too cool, huh<br />@Heather - holy cow, just saw it online this morning. What a touching, classy and absolutely beautiful memorial. I am crying too. Everyone should watch it. Everyone should see how to honor those that are gone. I agree with you, that would be a classy move by the NHL. And I know, I know. But I know who these people are, that is the sad thing :( Oh well, you can't win them all!<br />Wow Heather, thank you to you too. You have been a support to me as well. Thank you for a touching comment like that. <br />@Remy - well ah thank you :) It does. True true. <br />@Come - isn't it too cool??<br />@Meri - all three of 'my' countries should have this display up from time to time.

It was an amazing tribute - that should never have had to be paid. Now my eyes are all puffy from crying again - because it's still as horrifying to me today as it was Wednesday. <br /><br />I hope - as a hockey community - that the NHL and all other leagues pay tribute to these players this season. Be it by sewing special Lokomotiv patches on their jerseys or by nothing more than holding a moment of silence on each opening night - everywhere. It would show the true colors of those who take part in this sport - and we have some of the best professional athletes of all. Those players, their families, fans, the teams' ownership, management, etc - we're all here because we love the game or someone who plays it. It doesn't matter how you got here - all that matters is that it makes you family...<br /><br />And don't mind those stupid online trolls updating their blogs and posting in forums while they sit in their underwear in their mother's basements. We Coyotes fans know those types of folks all too well and they are harmless. Ignorant - but harmless - because they won't be leaving their mother's basements anytime soon :)<br /><br />You are in my thoughts Tex! Though you are so far away - I know exactly what you mean by the sense of community - because I feel like you've been a support to me through this. <br /><br />Thank you...<br /><br /><3Heatherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17844714049629389261noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7753693868431229580.post-78345461852871465042011-09-09T16:20:48.743-05:002011-09-09T16:20:48.743-05:00momma said, you cannot say something nice... say n...momma said, you cannot say something nice... say nothing at all. rant away lady!<br /><br />beer tank, awesome!Jeremy [Retro]https://www.blogger.com/profile/09912258155288958827noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7753693868431229580.post-66540635702313106012011-09-09T11:01:21.018-05:002011-09-09T11:01:21.018-05:00Whether it's 9/11, a plane crash, or a kid fal...Whether it's 9/11, a plane crash, or a kid falling off his bike, it's still a tragedy to someone. What is lacking in this anonymous world is a sense of respect. Thanks for your post and taking a stand.<br /><br />And really cool beer tank.

It just seems very cowardly sometimes. You know they'd never say those things to people's faces.<br /><br />I love the tank! Is that to celebrate an annual event?
