Donut - Canadian Maple; Timbit - Honey Dip, but it's gotta be a fresh one because they get hard really fast

My plan is to win the Central Division again and have a better postseason showing.

13 is one of the best double digit numbers out there and Friday is a day usually better than most. I'm sure no event, lucky or unlucky will happen.
2. Do you still talk to any of your friends from high school? Close to any of them?
The community my parents live wants nothing to do with me.
3
I'll drink black coffee but that's about it.
4. What would be your ideal Saturday?
Doesn't matter I don't have the funds or resources to do anything, let alone what I'd ideally want to do.
5. What is your prediction for your EHEC team for this season?
Whatever Vegas says.

I'm sure there's a few, but I can only recall one. I think I said this already in a previous 5QF, but I used to feel like I'll have a bad day if I leave the house hungry in the morning...even if I'm going out for breakfast. It may have been a thing of being brought up in a house where breakfast was always ready in the morning, but I don't really believe that anymore (waking up ten minutes before a midterm starts and acing it helped to destroy that idea).
2. Do you still talk to any of your friends from high school? Close to any of them?
All the time, and yes.
3. What's your favorite Tim Horton's donut/Timbit?
Donuts = not a huge fan, Timbits = assorted.
4. What would be your ideal Saturday?
Do something active in the morning/early afternoon (basketball/hockey/soccer/tennis/swimming pool/whatever, preferably outside because it usually means sun), sushi lunch, kick back with some video games for a while, steak dinner, and improvise the night (sports game, movie, poker, club, etc).
5. What is your prediction for your EHEC team for this season?
President's Trophy and first-round exit in typical Washington Capitals fashion.

Of course not. Except the one about saying 'shutout', but that's not a superstition, it's proven fact.
2. Do you still talk to any of your friends from high school? Close to any of them?
For the most part, yeah. A few disappeared here and there, but that's to be expected.
3. What's your favorite Tim Horton's donut/Timbit?
They're basically pure sugar, what does it matter?
4. What would be your ideal Saturday?
It should involve playing some combination of soccer, hockey, tennis, volleyball and ping pong, followed by winning the lottery and finding luxury box tickets to a Leafs home game... in June.
5. What is your prediction for your EHEC team for this season?
Top 4 in the West. Anything less would be a disappointment.

1. Any belief in Friday the 13th or any other superstitions (black cats, voodoo dolls, walking under a ladder, breaking a mirror, etc.)?
The ladder one to a certain extent, and I don't like talking about things that I do/don't want to happen, for fear of jinxing it.
2. Do you still talk to any of your friends from high school? Close to any of them?
Not really. The only one I talk to on rare occasion, I never really talked to or knew while we were in high school. It wasn't until well after that we became friends.
3. What's your favorite Tim Horton's donut/Timbit?
I prefer Wegman's donuts (mostly a NY/Pennsylvania thing), but you can never go wrong with a chocolate donut or apple fritter.
4. What would be your ideal Saturday?
Sleep in until close to noon and not do a single second of work. Pretty much what I aim for most Saturdays, even if it doesn't come to fruition.
5. What is your prediction for your EHEC team for this season?
Hopefully make the playoffs this year, and have a solid impact. I feel I've done fairly well in the draft and in FA in attempting to add more rounded and gritty players with the resources I have.

I don't wear any hockey paraphernalia to games where I'm rooting for either team.
2. Do you still talk to any of your friends from high school? Close to any of them?
Nope.
3. What's your favorite Tim Horton's donut/Timbit?
Never been.
4. What would be your ideal Saturday?
Beach cottage, perfect weather, sports on the TV in the afternoon, piles of seafood and good beer in the evening.
5. What is your prediction for your EHEC team for this season?
It'll be tough to win our division again, but we should be a playoff team at least. And depending on any necessary tweaks during the season, getting farther in the playoffs would be great.

Re: 5QF - 8/13/2010
1. Not a lick.
2. I can think of a lot of examples where people I wasn't necessarily friends with in high school have become good friends because we moved to the same area.
3. Sour Cream. No doubt. All others are pretenders.
4. Sleep-in, cook an outrageous meal and watch HNIC.
5. We will endeavour not to have to fold for financial/embarrassment reasons.
