OK so last time I did a “what’s wrong with the Canucks” post they started winning. I figure I’ll try that again. Seriously, wtf??? We should have won the game last night…Anaheim gave it to us on a platter several times and we just couldn’t complete. How can you have not [...]

Stanley Cup Round 2
Well I was 7 out of 8 for the first round. If you went with my predictions for the pool, you’d be doing ok. I missed badly on my NY Islanders vs Buffalo series. I miscounted the games on some as well, but that’s ok…I was pretty much guessing for the most [...]

“Just the facts, ma’am. Just the facts.” – Joe Friday, Dragnet
Blogland seems to break itself into two different sectors: Citizen Journalism and OpEd. Personally, I’m an op/ed guy…everything in here is purely personal opinion, and I don’t spend much time [...]

Thanks to the chief for posting this (while you’re at his blogsite, check out his new wheels…zero down no interest sale…maybe i should go look at a wrx…). I have no idea what they’re saying here, but I always like a good jackie chan style-no-one-gets-hurt fight. By the way, the dude in this video [...]

“Among the things Billy Pilgrim could not change were the past, the present, and the future.“ Slaughterhouse Five, 1969
I had forgotten that line, and how funny I thought it was when I first read it some years ago. I read today that Kurt Vonnegut passed away yesterday from complications that came from a head injury [...]

I don’t know if I see the point of this “Bloggers Code of Conduct” First off…who stood up and appointed you as the writing police, and secondly… what makes you think that your idea of a good community is the same as mine? And thirdly, IT’S MY BLOG!!! Why should I [...]

Round one of the most difficult trophy hunt in all of sports begins this week, and so I’m gonna put it out on the line and give my picks for the various round 1 match ups. I won’t be responsible for any lost money from wagers made based on my completely unscientific and unsupported picks. [...]

“I wish I woulda met you,
but now it’s a little late.” Filter: “Hey Man Nice Shot”, Short Bus, EMI 1995
That song wasn’t actually written about Kurt Cobain, but I’ve always associated it to him. For 13 years now, April 5 has been a day of mild sadness for me. In the early 90’s Nevermind kind [...]

So I’ve decided to take the plunge and get my own domain for this blog and maybe some other things as well. So I’m curious what people think I should do to go down this path. Is there a hosting site that’s best and cheap? Should I just go with GoDaddy or is there someone [...]

Matters of the Heart…
My heart seems to be a common thread of things in my life these days, both for the good and the bad. The best is obviously my relationship with Ruth and how things are advancing there. Since my brother’s wedding we’ve spent a substantial amount of time together (well, I guess before it [...]

Isn’t it ironic? Dontcha think?
Ahhh Alanis Morrisette we love you, we really do. A parody of a song that in itself is probably a parody…does it make sense? In keeping with my theme from earlier in the week of putting up a real cool cover song… Posting this for my girlfriend Ruth cuz we were just talking yesterday about [...]
