Oh man...

So, the person who is now on the other side of the cube wall is also a big Red Wings fan. She has the octopus sitting on her monitor and everything.

She, on a note of interest to no one but me and likely my father, went to college in Kalamazoo.

Her cellphone just went off. She has the NHL Tonight theme music as her ring tone.

It makes me a bit sad and a bit wistful, though the recognition of it made me laugh, first.

She went to Western?

[lithera.livejournal.com]

Yep.

A *real* hockey fan would have the Hockey Night in Canada theme. Who watches US hockey coverage in this town?

[lithera.livejournal.com]

I do because the CBC shows almost exclusively Candian teams, so... if I'm just looking for /a/ game, that's cool. If I'm looking for a Wings game, it's all about ESPN, unfortunately.

Huh, didn't even think of that. Isn't Detroit like an honorary Canadian city though?

[lithera.livejournal.com]

*laughs*

Sometimes I'd like it to be but, no. It's nothing like Windsor.

[warpdragon.livejournal.com]

No, Canada is a suburb of Detroit.

[lithera.livejournal.com]

I'm sure Toronto would be thrilled with that.

[warpdragon.livejournal.com]

To say nothing of Montreal.

At least your new cubemate is someone you can get along with. Also, you have a support system to help get you through until there is a new CBA.

[lithera.livejournal.com]

Definately.

There are others around who are very noisy. It is quite distracting.

[crowbarbob.livejournal.com]

What's a CBA?

It is a Collective Barganing Agreement.
