You won't be able to focus on anything. School, work, your significant other... they'll all be ignored in favor of Penguins Hockey...
GAME ONE: EPIC.
First off, look at this, its cute

First off, look at this, its cute

"Is the Flyers' level of suck enough for the Pens to job them again?
do it...BUT...
last year is last year.
Remember, though, Christopher Columbus didn't reach the New World and stop.last year is last year.
You had a girlfriend last year, but then she banged some dude she works with.
Things change.
If this game had any additional hype it would explode.
The Pens hate the Flyers.
The Flyers hate the Pens.
After days of talk tonight is the time for action.
Last year means nothing.
The season series means nothing.
Flyers bloggers who still think "Cindy Crysby" is witty mean nothing.
All that matters is that the playoffs are here.
A few months ago no one thought we would be here.
We are.
Fans of the 29 other teams in the league were licking their lips at the thought of a monumental collapse by the Pittsburgh Penguins.
They didn't get one.
Now it's time to show them what we can do.
We need sixteen wins.
Two more than last year.
He went and killed the natives.
Same thing applies here.

Do It.
APRIL FOOLS. I SENT THIS TO MY PARENTS. WIN.Je regrette de vous informer que nous avons été en contact avec vos Universités pendant les deux semaines que nous avons vous donné des cours supplémentaires dans le bureau d’APA. Comme vous devriez savoir bien, nous avons eu quelques problèmes avec les heures et les distributions de crédit avec vos propres universités. Pour les étudiants de Michigan et Wisconsin, tout va bien dès qu’aujourd’hui, mais il faut rattraper deux heures supplémentaire pour chaque cours pourtant que vous aviez les heures qu’il fallait en accord avec vos universités. Alors, pour les étudiants d’Indiana, la situation est devenu plus grave. Votre Université ne laisse pas d’espace libre pour remonter des heures. Il faut que vous ayez 30 heures de cours pour se compter comme « full time student ». Je vous écris pour que dire que c’est impossible pour nous de vous donner écrise des heures pour ça. Donc, dès que maintenant, il faut que nous vous remettiez dans la FAC pour le reste du semestre en accordance avec les cours que nous avons créées pour vous. Pourtant que ça est arrivé, je suis désolée à dire que vous n’avez de ne chois que de rester jusqu’à la fin (25) août.
Ok, just to make sure you all understand : Michigan and Wisconson have given us some leadway on how many hours we have to require of the students in AIX ; however, Indiana is relentless. We have to make sure you get at least 30 hours of class for each class, so we have to require you to take the courses offered at the FAC as well as our supplement in order for you to recieve any credit. Because the FAC is locked down until the end of April, this will require you stay in AIX until the 25th of August. I’m verry sorry, but we have no choise in the matter. Please stop by the bureau as soon as possible to discuss your class options and express any concerns to me. I will be in the office until 19h00 this week rather than 17h00. Bon Courage, We’ll get this worked out. Merci,Kelly Conway
