Grand Rapids Griffins Hockey Schedule 2009-2010 Season
The AHL today released the 09-10 schedule. I have made a public Google Calendar of the schedule: http://z11.us/3
The season gets underway Oct 3rd with the first home game scheduled for Oct 23rd. Drake and I will be so excited to get this season underway. He had asked to watch hockey a week or so ago, it was so cute.
The Griffins put out a press release with some interesting facts: http://z11.us/4 My biggest concerns are these:
Longest Road Trip
6 games: March 12-25Three Games in Three Nights

The late season road trip never seems to do us any good. Also the multiple games in a short span are always worry sum. Now we just have to figure out who is going to be on our team…
Tags: One thing that Google Reader does not do very well is renaming folders/tags. I wanted to move some of my feeds around and rename some folders, but found it almost impossible. At first I was going to bite the bullet and delete my folders and just restart. I was not looking forward to doing this with my 65 feeds.
I then remembered that I could export my feed list to a OPML file. I did just that, then imported it to Feedreader. I was then able to do a better drag and drop, and rename. Then I had to export back out, then import to Google Reader.
The only thing that did not work work out was that when I imported the OPML file back into Google Reader one of the folders was missing. I’m not sure why but it was an easy fix.
I have a flickr album that has over 1,000 photos of Drake. Every now and again I like to flip through some of the older ones and remind myself of when he used to fit on my chest while sleeping.
I also put together two short shows of our trip to the John Ball Zoo and the Grand Rapids Children’s Museum.
Will Google Docs soon provide a place for people to share Photos and Videos?
I saw these two new icons, Photos & Videos, when I logged into my Google Apps Docs, but they vanished as soon as the page was done loading.
In the past few days I have been going through my broken links. Some of them are for images that I had posted a very long time ago and no longer have on my web space. I was able to find some of them in my flickr photos and replaced the links.
The majority of the broken links in my blog are for external sources. There is a rash of old news articles, hockey articles, and pictures. Now the pictures are not things that I have stolen or anything. They are pictures that I was provided an embed code for, but the image is just gone now.
I guess what bothers me the most is the lack of archives for news articles. Data storage is cheap why do news organizations delete content? Also, why can’t the Griffins keep all of their old news articles?
