It's once and always Stanley Cup Champion Washington Capitals hockey, all day, all night, all the time . . . or when I get around to it

We can...
We can send a man to the moon, but…
We can turn orange drink into powder so the guys going to the moon can take it along, add water and have something to drink, but…
We can get 10,000 songs in a contraption smaller than a pack of cigarettes, but…
We can stick a gizmo on our car’s dashboard that tells us to within six feet where we are on the planet (and tell us in an annoying voice to turn this way or that), but…
We can build a tunnel 17 miles in circumference just to fire tiny little particles at one another really fast (ok, so that one doesn’t quite work, yet), but…
We can identify the entire human genome, but…
We can almost have a fully self-assembling “stomach-bot” for medical diagnoses and treatments, but…
We can turn water into fuel (it ain’t wine, but with the price of gas, it’ll do), but…
WE CAN’T TURN WATER INTO A DECENT SHEET OF ICE!!!
Heck, they discovered ice in the rocks on Mars. Pfft…kid stuff. Let’s see them discover it at the Verizon Center.
Oh how sad but true. The ice is just horrible at VC. The air temp inside the arena is just too warm. I am a season ticket holder and don't recall the last time the air had a chill to it.
