That puts both brothers there.

Oh boy.

This Little Town Was Ground Zero for Concert Disasters and Hockey Brawls in the 1970s​

An oversold KISS concert became a nightmare, a Woodstock attempt ended with a tipped-over ambulance, and Frank Zappa learned about guns

The other big news was that two minor leaguers looking to make the Wings kept getting into fights during practice—brothers Jack and Jeff Carlson, who had been playing for the Marquette Iron Rangers. “If Detroit is looking for hard-hitting, rough-tumble hockey, these boys could provide it,” wrote the Livingston County Press.

Three years later, the two enforcers who had been getting into fights in Hartland hit it big in the cult classic “Slap Shot” as two of the famed Hanson Brothers, the most beloved fictional hockey players of all time.

Here is a player that really should be getting more votes than he has so far.....



He went 3 for 4 in yesterday's game.

Two and a half inches of rain over the weekend. Another storm tonight.

Got up at three in the morning to mow the lawn, again. Nice straight lines, leaving bare footprints in the grass. Nice, plush 1.5" lawn using a reel push mower. (Reel mowers do very well with wet grass)

Meanwhile, everyone else is grumbling it's too wet and soggy to mow.

First cousin Heidi and her friends were the unofficial cheer leading squad at the local HS hockey games held there. Cheerleading outfits, dancing up in the crowd.

Moving and grooving to Zeppelin's 'How Many More Times', after another cousin scored a goal.

It should be Rope A

The picture shows:

• A horizontal wooden beam attached to a vertical post (pivoted near the center).
• A cat sitting on the right end of the horizontal beam.
• Three ropes:
  • Rope A: runs from the top of the vertical post down to the right end of the beam (near the cat).
  • Rope B: runs from the left side of the beam down to the ground on the left.
  • Rope C: runs from the right end of the beam down to the ground on the right.

The beam is being held in equilibrium by these ropes.

The cat falls only if the right side of the beam drops downward.

So we need to identify which rope is preventing the right side from falling.

• Rope A (top → right end)
  This rope is pulling upward on the right side, supporting the cat's side.
• Rope B (left side → ground)
  This rope stabilizes the left side, preventing it from rising too much.
  Cutting this would likely make the left side rise and the right side go up, not down.
• Rope C (right side → ground)
  This rope pulls the right side downward, not up. Cutting it would actually make the right side rise, not fall.

To make the cat fall, you must remove the support that holds the right side up. Cut Rope A

You know how retarded this discussion is?

In one fourth the time anyone figured out what rope to cut, the cat already jumped.
