"The Kiss of Death Mistake"
You replay the conversation at 2 a.m. She texted back fast yesterday. Today, nothing. Was that smile friendly or flirty? What did the shoulder touch mean?
Every hour you spend decoding her signals drains your confidence and hands her the controls. Women can sense that insecurity from across the room — and it repels them.
One of the "22 Rules" kills the obsession on the spot: assume she likes you, and act accordingly. Sounds too simple. Works anyway.
Her interest tends to rise to meet your expectations. Psychologists call it a self-fulfilling prophecy.

"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"
Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.
You've been "getting ready" for two years.
She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.
Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.

I live just outside of Tampa Bay and follow the Lightning closely but my heart and soul belong to Bean town.
I don't think the Lightning will get past the Sens either. I was at game 4 here in Tampa and they looked like stir fried sh!t. Marty was a li'l firecracker as usual.

Ya, now that they freed up some sallary space, bruins need to invest into some good younger players during the offseason. I heard rumors that they will try to get Zdeno Chara once he becomes a free agent, at all costs.KarmaSutra said:
As for tampa, I know what you mean. That's what happens when you don't have a deep bench. There's only so mach St Louis, Lecavalier, and Richards can do before they get tired and play weak. By having a deep bench like the sens did, you get to spread minutes around and allow star players to rest and go the distance without turning sloppy (most of the time). In the playoffs, that makes all the difference.
Well the Bruins are on the right track after firing their GM (should have been fired on the spot for trading Joe Thornton).MindOverMatter said:
I still have my hopes that Detroit will bounce out of their funk and beat Edmonton. If that is not the case then its going to come down to between the Devils and the Sens and whomever comes out on top will win it all.

amazing 3rd period game, but detroits age finally cought up with it. the ultra competitive northwest division looks like it will win all of its series. first colorado, then edmonton then calgary. so far, this is shaping to be one of the best stanley cup races ever.
from the looks of it, next stop: battle of alberta, this is gonna be tooth and nail combat.
big salute to stevie Y, one of the greatest captains to ever step into a hockey arena.
"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"
She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.
Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.
The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.

Man, did the Mighty Ducks get ripped off in the 1st period of today's game. They should definitely make any call reviewable if it affects a goal.
Now its round number 2 here are my predictions.
Buffalo Vs Ottawa - This will be a goal fested series but ultimatley I give the edge to the sens. Sens in 6.
NJ vs Carolina - Carolina looked confused at times against the Canadians and their playoffs inexperience was showing. NJ in 5.
SJ Vs Edmonton - This will be a tough serious because it could go either way. Joe Thornton is the key here because he tends to dissapear during the playoffs when his team needs him most. As a result I give it to Edmonton in 7.
Anaheim Vs Colorado - before the playoffs I would have given the edge to Anaheim but now its seems that Colorado goltender Jose Theodore has gained his form back and looks to be very good. I say Colorado in 6.
