Congrats to Canada's Women's Hockey team, beating the US 2-0 yesterday for a gold medal, YET AGAIN. WEEHOO!
I was raised by a sailor and a hippy artist . . . {I apologize for my language in advance.} Today started out so nicely. The sun was shining, the Goobermonster was amiable . . . then I got to school. Some fucktard cut the lock to our locker. Jon says he went in this morning and found the lock cut and nothing taken -- this is including some very expensive textbooks of Jon's. This leads me to believe that the culprit was someone from around that area, who had maybe seen me put my leather jackets in the locker, and was hoping today would be one of those days. Fucktard. I'm glad he was so fucking retarded he didn't know school was over, so I wouldn't be putting my jacket in there while I went to class . . . Fucktard. Then I thought: you know what would really be nice right now? A huge bag of Minieggs. Nothing goes better with playoff beer than playoff Minieggs. But could I find any in Shopper's? No. Brian's? No? PharmaPlus? Hell, no. What the fuck? Stefan is very busy these days, for those of you who noticed. He's got a fuckton of shit due tomorrow, so, unfortunately, you won't get to see my site redesign for a little while yet. I haven't prepared a playoff scoreboard for this particular design, so we'll see what I come up with. And so it begins . . . That's right. Puckdrop tonight signals the start of the post-season. You scared? I sure as hell am. On my way to school today, I walked past a car that had a Sens car flag on one door, and a Leafs car flag on the other. How the fuck does that work? I also saw some kid on my way home this afternoon -- he must've been around 17 or so -- wearing a jersey, red pants, and a Sens flag as a cape. He was ignoring the hecklers. Nice boy. Any of you TO peeps see the plane trailing the "LEAFS SUCK GO SENS GO" banner flying around the CN Tower? You have the Ottawa Sun to thank for that stunt. State of the nation . . . You know your city wants to talk about something other than the sponsorship scandal when one of the headlines in your local paper is "Alfie Cuts Hair." Now, before you freak out, it's just the regular trim he gets every two months. Except, as Jason Spezza pointed out, he's now got highlights, which are, according to J. Spetz, "playoff blond." Ooookayyyy . . . Also comforting to see a picture of Jacques Martin tripping over Poor Patty. Now at least we have someone to blame if everything goes awry. There was this random little text box in the paper today. Its contents? "Did you know that Zdeno Chara speaks five different languages?" Hm. No. Even so . . . this is apropos of what, exactly? SportBUNNY (yes, the whore) says, in her atrocious grammar, that Ottawa is going to beat Toronto in this series. Her reasoning? Our goalies are cuter. Hm. Riiight. Lots of speculation as to the future of the roster and staff these days. If the Sens don't go deep this postseason, we could lose the coach, the assistant coach, and a million free agents, like Bonk, to name one. Pretty much the only players we have now who are totally safe are Hossa and Chara, because of their talent and their teeny paycheques, and Alfredsson, because he's there for the next eight years. So we could have a very different team next year, folks. Be prepared. There was another article about how the Leafs are complete assholes on the ice, but off the ice are the nicest guys imaginable. The author of the article singled out Domi as being super nice to the kiddies. This is true, and I respect him for that, but I think the main reason he hangs out with children so much is that they're the only people who don't laugh at him for being diminuitive. They must be the only people with whom he can identify. Then, of course, there's the Eagle, and the only identifying fans can do with him is picking him out in mug shots.
