Lower Manhattan from across the Hudson river on a clear Sunday evening - its a little late hence the blurry pic. The new Freedom Tower now dominates the skyline.

Happy Memorial Day Weekend

Posted by Nerdyy

AH! Memorial Day Weekend is upon us in the US aka the "unofficial" start of the summer season (Memorial Day - Labor Day) - it also means that for all amateur grill enthusiasts its time to fire 'em up - of course I would consider myself a pro since my grill has been fired up since late March :D

The weather is so perfect that this toy Teddy decided to stretch out on the back of a garbage truck LOLL :D

Happy Long Weekend everyone :D

Stanley Cup - Conference Championships

Posted by Nerdyy

Yes it is that time of the year again - my second favorite sport(after Football - American football that is) is having its playoffs for the Stanley Cup. For my Canadian(and US) readers you know exactly what I am talking about :D - for my European or Asian readers we are talking about the NHL (National Hockey League) playoffs.

This year we have 3 of the 4 conference championship teams belonging to the Original Six. The Western Conference Finals is a repeat of last years matchup with the defending Stanley Cup Champions - my beloved Chicago Blackhawks squaring off against the Los Angeles Kings (Currently the Blackhawks are up 1-0 in their best of 7 series - Yes Toews Kane Sharp Hossa are all there:D). In the Eastern Conference Championship Series we have a matchup of two storied original six franchises - the New York Rangers (who last won the cup in 1984 - remember Mark Messier :D) and the most storied franchise in the NHL the Montreal Canadiens (who last won the cup in 1993 - remember Jacques Lemaire, Guy (pronounced Geee) LeFleur and Patrick Roy (pronounced Waah)) - with the Rangers currently up 1-0 in their best of 7 series.

Stay Tuned :D
