Hiya, I want to thank my friend Robin for lending me his acoustic guitar while mine were in the repair shop. Thanks, Robin!
Anyway, the guitars are repaired and all that's left now is to wrap my fingers around their scrawny necks and play some notes and chords. YAY!

May Schedule. Guitar yes. Sitar no.
Hey Everybody, I recently discovered that my Martin D-35 acoustic guitar is capable of doing sitar impressions. The trouble is, I DON'T want my guitar to be sounding like a sitar. If I wanted to add a sitar sound to my, um, *cough* act, I'd ask Anoushka Shankar to join my one-man-band.

(Dear Anoushka, my offer of marriage still stands)
Anyway, you're all invited to come on out this month and see if I'm everything I crack myself up to be.
And make fun of my guitar/sitar impressions. I'm bringing the guitar in for repairs very soon, so laugh now while you can. HAH!

Saluting Merciful Fans @ MSG
Well,
I'm not gonna lie- I dribbled the drool of regret onto the pillow of remorse after the Rangers got swept by the Devils. But despite losing the last 9 games of the season (incl. playoffs) it was a good year for the Blueshirts.
At the end of game 4, the Garden faithful actually began the 'Let's Go Rangers!' cheer and kept it up during the traditional post-series handshake. Classy touch from a not always classy bunch, and the team obviously appreciated the gesture. Way to go fans! Way to go team! YAY!
Meanwhile the NHL playoffs continue, and I'm rooting for my brother's team, the Buffalo Sabres. Go Sabes!

Game 3: Gloom & Doom
Well.
I'm telling myself that is better to have made the playoffs and lost, than to never have made the playoffs at all.
Let's Go Ranguhs! Please.,
Just Win. One. Game.

Big Hole for Blueshirts
Devils 4, Rangers 1

Look on the bright side, the boys gave up 2 fewer goals against.
No Jagr, no Kasparitis, no offense, no defense.
Memo to Sandis Ozolinsh: I know you were brought to NY for your ability to put the puck into the net, but NOT OUR OWN NET!!! Gah!

Game 3 on Wednesday.
*sigh* Let’s Go Ranguhs!

NYR Lose Game 1
NJD 6, NYR 1.
The Boys played like crap and Jagr lost his mind and tried to thug it up with Gomez, now JJ's got some sort of upper body injury which may keep him out for Monday night's game.
Gah! The only good news is, because of work, I did not have to witness the carnage. phew!
C'mon boys stay out of the sin-bin and at least keep your wits about you.

Bad way to end regular season
Ottowa 5
Rangers 1.
Gah! The good news is, Henrik is back in the net for the boys. The bad news is, a lotta goals went into that net. Oh well, the playoffs start this weekend and it's Rangers vs. Devils.

Flyers. Frell'em.
Gah!
Flyers 4, Rangers 1.
This is not good. A 4 game losing streak and 1 game left in the regular season. I'm not saying it's time for panic stations, but...

A Comeback and A Milestone!
Rangers 4, Islanders 3 (overtime)
YAY!!
Another milestone for Jaromir Jagr, as he scored his 53rd goal of the season, breaking the Ranger record once held by Adam Graves.

Michael Nylander scored 2, including the game-winner in ot. During a postgame interview, he also managed to slip an S-bomb past the NBC censor. Woo!

Good game, eh?

Let's Go Rangers!!
More AP/NYR photos just ripe for the taking!

Winning = Fun!
Rangers 3, Isles 1
YAY!!

It a goal from a Finn (Jarkko Immonen) to help them win,

And another strong performance from Kevin Weekes.

Martin Straka scored 2. The Rangers are making me very, very happy. *silly smile*

Blueshirts Make The Playoffs!
Rangers 3, Flyers 2 (Shootout)
YAY!!

Kick save, and a beauty, by Weekes!

Petr Sykora goes top-shelf in the shootout!

Weekes is the shootout hero, and the game's first star. Fans go wild, "Weekes! Weekes!"

What makes this particularly sweet is the fact that they beat Philly to make the playoffs, (for the first time since 1997) and as you may recall,
I hate the frelling Flyers,
I really do.

Records are made to be broken...
And Jaromir Jagr broke the NYR record for assists with 4 on the night, while Henrik Lundqvist broke the NYR record for wins by a rookie netminder, with his 30th win of the season. Throw in a 'natural' hat trick by Martin Straka, and a goal by Petr Puck, and it all adds up to:
Rangers 5, Islanders 1.
YAY!!!

As usual for a game in Uniondale on Long Isaland, the place was at least half filled with Ranger fans. You can see a few in the background of this photo. (taken by John Dunn for the New York Times)
