34.5k/49... logistical question

[thanate]

What (if any) sort of sports game could one hear broadcast on the radio (in rural Wisconsin) on a monday night in late February? I said hockey, but have absolutely no idea if this is reasonable... Oh, and does march madness start at the very beginning of march?

And (ok, this one is rhetorical) why is it that it's only the people I actually want to talk to who say things like "ok, I'll let you go now" or "I shouldn't be taking up your entire evening" over the phone?

Hockey sounds reasonable. I don't know about Monday nights though, and I've only driven through Wisconsin twice -going to and coming back from Minneapolis, so I'm probably not much help.

I'd reason that March madness begins with the month an culminates in April Fool's Day. That seems logical-ish.

Thanks. (and that icon... ok, never mind)

Actually, I had a question for you, totally unrelated-- I've just inherited some bits of china doll that originally belonged to my father's great grandmother. Two cloth bodies, one with three shards of original head still attatched/glued back together, and one with a replacement really creepy head, and most of the pieces of the original less disturbing-looking one. Only someone started gluing the original face back together at some point, and did a very bad job of it (the pieces don't actually match up properly, and the glue is smeared all over messily & going yellow) and I wondered if you'd be able/willing to take a look at it some time (um, next month maybe?) and recommend a proper solvent to get the old glue off without damaging the rest of the doll, and/or a good glue for repairs?

uhm. well. he likes pink?

Sure.

I love doll bits - bring them over whenever you want. If I can't figure out how to get the glue off, I can ask the people at work to look at it too and see what they say. Glue can be weird stuff...

Cool. thanks. I'll e-mail you or something when I get out of novel-mode. :)

Yeah; it's also funny to think I'm talking about getting rid of glue that's probably an artifact in its own right, and might well have been (mis)applied over a hundred years ago.
