Hey there, how are you doing?  Are you a hockey fan?
gpt
Good, thanks. Not really .Though I do prefer ice hockey to field hockey. In most of the world when you say hockey they will understand you as talking about field hockey.
human
Good point.  I'm getting converted to ice hockey.  I've never watched it much but I watched where they let a Navy goalie practice the the St. Louis Blues.  It was fun to watch and has got me a little more into the sport for sure.
gpt
I think it would be even more fun to watch the 1930 game where a hockey goalie caught fire whe a puck hit a pack of matches in his pocket. Wait, I hope he was okay!
human
Okay that is crazy!   I heard that an average professional hockey player will lose up to 8 pounds in one game.  Probably more if he's on fire right?  
gpt
Haha, most likely. I'd like to see the Slovakian women's hockey team in action. They beat Bulgaria 82 to 0 meaning they scored about one goal every 44 seconds. Boy, I would hate to eb the Bulgarian goalie!
human
*lips slightly parted* Ha me too.  I'm almost sure I could probably play a little better than that on a really good day.  I was thinking Iceland would probably have a good hockey team.  But I was wrong.  Do you know they have no public rail service and if they don't own a car most Icelanders use domestic flights to travel between major towns?
gpt
Interesting! Speaking of flights, they are 10% slower than they were in the 60s. This is to save on fuel.
human
That's interesting.  You'd think it would be faster now right?  The Dutch are crating a commuter bus that is designed to travel at 160 mph.  Not sure how I feel about that.
gpt
Ya i was thinking that. Another change is airports make travelers walk further so that they don't have to fetch baggage as fast.
human
That makes sense.  I've never thought about it like that.  But I definitely can see that it is happening.  So even when you travel by plan you are still technically travelling by foot.   The Mackinac Island has banned motorized vehicles for over 100 years now.  They travel by horse drawn carriages or bikes.   
gpt
I would probably be more in shape if I lived there. Wonder if anyone who lives there participates on the website for people to crash on your couch while they are traveling.
human
That would make me nervous I think.  Both as the owner of the couch or the person crashing on it!   I'd probably be so nervous I'd end up doing something bizarre and they'd put me in a dunce cap.  Did you know the conical party hats were derived from dunce caps.  It was made to encourage people at parties to behave more foolishly.
gpt
Ha, funny. I wouldn't want a dunce hat, but I would want a top hat and sword that comes with a PhD in Finland!
human
A sword, really?  LOL  Until 1998 British politicians had to wear a top hat if making a point of order in the house of commons.  Strange right?
gpt
Haha, that would be funny. Did you ever wonder why London black cabs are so tall? They were designed to accomodate bowler hats.
human
That's too funny.  They things we do for fashion.  Did you know the bowler hat was the most popular had in the old west.  Not the cowboy hat like most people think.  
gpt
*opens mouth slightly* And I didn't know the folds in a chef's hat represented the many ways a chef can cook an egg!
human
All right, I learn something new every day!  I had no idea either. You know back to hockey I really think I'm going to try and get to a few games this season.  I really am impressed with the St. Louis Blues.  They gave a Navy goalie a chance to practice with them.  He'd been skating since he was 3 and playing hockey since he was 4.  Can you imagine how thrilled he was to get to practice with the pros?
gpt
*raises eyebrows* Yeah, for him, the Navy and hockey were two totally different aspirations.
human
So true.  Hey it's been great visiting with you.  Have a great rest of your day!  Don't eat eggs from a chef with no folds in his hat!!
gpt
Haha, I won't! Yeah, I wondered, does a cook custom fold his or her hat for the amount of types of eggs they can cook or do the folds come like that for all cooks? Hmm, eggs for dinner sounds nice! See you!
