Beamer - It's time for another interview with one of the World's Most Interesting Men...Carl. Welcome Sir. First question...How do you think your Lightning do this year in SCD?
Carl - Thanks for having me. It’s a tough division, but I’m confident we’ll be in the playoffs come seasons end and see how much noise we can make.
Beamer - Ya, your Bolts are in a very elite division, but Lightning can certainly strike any team at any time and go on a run. Lightning in a bottle I guess too....so far that's all I got. Rumour has it Senators GM McBitter makes monthly "friendship" payments to you. If you don't mind me asking...how much does he send you? Oh yeah..got sidetracked.....the question....Question 2.... if you could do a Scotch Tasting party with 5 other GMs, who would pick and why?
Carl - Unfortunately if there were any said agreements, wink, I’m sure confidentiality agreements would be included. But to more important matters, scotch. I hope we’re talking single malt here, blended has no place there. Otherwise doI have to share the scotch, and who’s paying? You? When’s the tasting? If your setting this up for us, here’s my guest list.
Jesse (Kings) - Brother-in-Law and pretty sure the rule is I have to invite him.
McBitter (Sens) - This one is a given, and no explanation needed Andy (Vegas)
Good ppl, and dove down the StoryTeller rabbit hole more then I did. So know he’s got good taste.
Gameface (Sabres) - Gameface makes everything more interesting/entertaining.
That Flames GM, whoever he is again.
I just want to watch him and Gameface needle each other. Especially with Gameface’s closet fandom of the Flames, and jumping ship off the Canucks to join the Flames.
Beamer - Ahh...single malt only....as for who pays for it....good question...LCBO can....I'm sure they're making a few bucks over the past year. As for when...let's say summer 2021 when we celebrate the SCD Canucks winning a match up. grin . We'd better give Gameface a heads up so we can start walking to Ontario....Question 3. If aliens landed in front of you and, in exchange for anything you desire, offered you any position on their planet what would you want?
Carl - Huh. So they’d give me anything I want, and any position I want? They need to work on their negotiation skills, since I’m not sure what their getting out of this. Otherwise, I’d take whatever position is in charge of their ships. So I can get the hell out of dodge when they realize the mistake they’ve made.
Beamer - I heard the aliens wanted to use humans as their Guinea Pigs for some brain-numbing experiments. Getting a high propulsion turbo engine with high warp spacecraft would be cool...great way to live long and prosper. Question 4. You need to check that your friend, James, has your correct phone number but you cannot ask him directly. You must write the question on a card which and give it to Heidi who will take the card to James and return the answer to you. What must you write on the card, besides the question, to ensure James can encode the message so that Heidi cannot read your phone number?

Carl - Upigsknvd Nculn gntaaam mecm zssa c yoglta gy el xctaaam xsal egn ulnnczln rosrlovd, Iecm c akup cnn
Beamer - Gug gug gug ....there a few ounces of Scotch helped with getting away from that alien indoctrination...
Carl - You’re the one that brought them into this.
Beamer - I know, I know...at least it explains a lot. Now onto my question #4 from above...
Carl - That was the answer above. It’s in code.
Beamer - Ow...I can't decipher that...I'm but a mere talkshow host...
Carl - Well, I can’t exactly put the cipher on the message now can I?
Beamer - Noted....new Question 4. If you were a salad, what kind of dressing would you have?
Carl - Well, I’m going to assume I’m a Caesar. So it would have to be a Caesar salad dressing. Otherwise Thousand Island is the way to go. And I’m not going to ask who’s tossing the salad...
Beamer - I'm sure it's a hot waitress at the Keg who's tossing the salad ....but if you insist.... Last question... If you saw someone steal a tin of beans in Walmart, would you report it? Explain your answer.
Carl - Nope. It’s a tin of beans. Maybe that’s the only meal that poor soul will be able to provide for their children in days. Or maybe not. Either way it’s not my responsibility to police Walmart’s anti-theft policy. If they were that concerned about it, the Walton family and their $163 Billion net worth can invest more in their security, pay their employees a higher wage, and not fuck around with the FT/PT contracts to prevent people from getting benefits. ** Walmart
Beamer - Phew...was just making sure you'd help a bro out when go to Walmart looking for food to accompany our Scotch tasting this summer. Great chat Carl. Best of luck to your Lightning this up coming season....hope they boldly go where no one has gone before.
