When I got the first round of EXP upgrades last night, the difference it made was ca-razaaaaaaaay! I went from a lumbering oaf to a more speedy oaf that can turn on a dime and check people through the boards.

Yeah we took him in to be neutered. Wanted to do it a couple weeks ago, but they told us he was sick, so we’ve had him on anti-biotics for a couple weeks. Seems to be okay now, but they kept him there overnight as a precaution.

Aug 25, 2010 – New Tampa Bay Lightning goalie Dan Ellis is on Twitter (twitter.com/33dellis). Last week, he got into a bit of back-and-forth with some of his followers after he made a comparison between professional athletes such as himself and brain surgeons. His point was that both professions require a degree of specialized skill that average people just don’t have, which is a valid assessment.
But of course, any time you invoke brain surgery (or rocket science) in a non-ironic comparison…
[People] say well that guy [Reggie Bush] makes too much money…well he earned it. Just like a brain surgeon makes tons of $, it took 15 more yrs than [you] put in to get that kind of pay. Any job I can think of that makes lots of cash..that person is a specialist. Meaning other [people] can not do the job as well. They train harder, are better educated or just plain blessed. They are not a dime a dozen unlike many other professions.

It’s all about timing, where you say what you say, and who you say it to. Judging your audience is something we all have to learn, but someone as public as that gets bitchslapped far more harshly than someone who just offends two or three friends with an ill-considered remark.
There's always more to learn about Hockey.
It’s definitely true. Still…people get all up in arms about stuff like this, where he may not be clear but come ON, you get his point…and yet we adore guys like BizNasty (and I’m including myself, I find him funny in an obnoxious, frat boy kind of way) for saying really offensive things about other people.

I think what it comes down to is that your average Joe reacts emotionally, not logically. It’s easier.

There’s disagreeing with what they say, which you’re free to do, and then there’s attacking someone mindlessly and relentlessly, which is what happened here. THAT’S what bugs me (and for what it’s worth, I think he should have had thicker skin and stuck it out a bit).
I just always wonder whenever people reply to an athlete or a celebrity or whatever on Twitter…would you say that to their face? Keyboard courage is a marvelous thing, where you can call someone names and get away with it. Sure, I’ll mock Mike Green or criticize Semin on the blog or whatever, but I’m not directing it at them in the hope that they read it. I’m not saying “hey, @GreenLife52, you SUCK!”.

Exactly this. Keyboard courage is a marvelous thing and these people can’t filter their follower feeds in the way that we can, plus they attract a broader range of people than normal schmoes do to begin with.

I wrote a whole reply to this and then accidentally closed the window. Sigh.
To sum up: Public figures have consequences for doing so that the rest of us do not. It’s a question of scale. Us normal schmoes attract people who are like us. Like attracts like and those who disagree with us will usually go away after a while b/c they don’t want to deal with it. So what we’re left with is the people who may not agree with us on everything but generally think in a similar way. Any disagreements will be small on the scale, just a ripple.
A public figure casts a broader net and attracts more different types of people, and that subset of people is more likely to have varying opinions about just about everything else. Any disagreement is likely to be more like a tidal wave and escalate much more rapidly and have more far-reaching effects on them than our disagreements ever will. They have consequences and a price to pay for publicizing their opinions that us normal schmoes never will.

What I loved about getting married in New Jersey was that 98% of our gifts were straight cash homey! We didn’t want stupid appliances and shit we’d never use.
The thing is, we don’t really NEED a whole lot of stuff, so we’re digging the random appliances.
We both have soft spots for needless kitchen gadgets. If we could set up our kitchen as a Rube Goldberg Device like on Pee Wee’s Big Adventure, we’d do it in a second.

After our honeymoon, we went to the bank and deposited our wedding gifts into our first joint account. Nice chunk of change and a nice way to start off a marriage.
It feels like it’s only the NE part of the country that gives money as wedding gifts, but I believe the old-fashioned intent was for the couple to use it as a down payment on a home.
Did they pin it to the brides dress?

Well, I was awoken this morning by the dulcet tones of him calling my mother a nazi bitch, real original! (she’s German) I have a feeling this does not bode well for the chances of him sending this. And he wonders why I don’t call more often…
Now that my mini vent is over, anyone know about FHA home loans and if they’d be that much worse?

You know what it means? She’s taking a writing class or has a beginning Writer’s Digest book.

This could be the most inane bit of dialogue i’ve ever read. It’s like if every vapid girl I knew in High School suddenly got together at the same time and morphed themselves into these two people
"I don’t know, Nikki…" I was unsure of what to do. The plan seemed smart enough, but definitely not fool proof.
"Oh come, Zarabelle. Think about it, you’ll drive him crazy if you walk in there looking drop dead gorgeous and he knows that he can’t have you." I was about to respond when my phone started vibrating.
"Hello?" I answered, still thinking about whether this was a good idea tonight.
"Hey! There’s a party tonight at Della’s. He asked me to make sure you got invited. You’ll be there right?" I sighed, I didn’t know what was going on in that boys head. I decided I should probably answer Stephen Gaskin’s question. But once again, I got cut off from speaking by him hissing a "Shut the fuck up, Della. She’s about to answer!" I rolled my eyes.
"Sure thing, sweetheart. I’ll be there." I said, keeping my confident front up, even though my insides were going crazy like a huge tidal wave.
"Awesome!" I could practically hear the smile in his voice. "The plan is that we’re all going to head over to his apartment around nine or so. You know where that is, right?"
"Sure do, sweetheart. I’ll see you then." I didn’t wait for a reply before I flipped my phone closed. Letting out a loud groan, I hit my head against the wooden table again.
"He didn’t have the fucking guts to call me himself and invite me. What a pussy." I yelled out in frustration.
"Are you kidding me?" Nikki asked laughing. I threw my hands up in frustration again.
"No, he had Gaskin call! And then I heard him say ‘shut the fuck up, Della, she’s about to answer!’" Nikki laughed more, causing me to smile, it was hard to hold it in when your best friend was sitting across from you in hysterical laughter.
"Oh that is great. I was sure that Della Rovere had enough confidence to call a girl he’s already laid." I rolled my eyes at Nikki’s words.

“So, how old are you?” He asked, breaking the silence.
“I’m twenty one, you?”
“Same.” He answered with a smile. “Jordan was saying you play?” I nodded.
“Yeah, I play goal for the Wild Cats.” Evgeni looked at me with raised eyebrows.
“That girls super league?” I just nodded. “And you had a bad night?” I let out a long sigh, trying to keep myself from giggling at his accent.
“More like bad day, I woke up too late, almost missed morning skate, missed two of my pre-game rituals, including my pre-game nap, got killed in burn soccer before the game. And believe me, I
pride myself on my skills in burn soccer. I couldn’t find my lucky necklace. The game was horrible, I let in five, that’s a career high for me." I sighed. “And now I have chocolate milkshake all over me. And to top it all off, I’m having a really ugly day.” I whined before I could stop myself. Why was I just spilling my guts to some stranger like this? He probably didn’t care. “Sorry, you probably didn’t care to hear all that.”
He stopped walking, grabbing my arm, stopping me in the process. I glanced around. We were standing in the middle of a small city intersection. Luckily for us, no cars were coming either way as
the traffic light switched above us. The snow fell, laying lightly on my hair and eyelashes. Evgeni stood infront of me, looking down at me.
“If this is an ugly day, I’d like to see you on a pretty day.” He started softly. “Because you’re the most beautiful girl I’ve ever seen.” I tried not to be sucked in by his charm, but I couldn’t
help myself as his lips lowered onto mine, in a mind blowing kiss. He pulled away for just a second, before pressing his lips back to mine with passion.

Great news in my mind. I can’t stand DT. Great technical playing, but zero soul. Hope Portnoy decides to stay in A7X. Amazing drummer, but he needed to find some other musical partners.

I saw them live a couple of months ago when they were opening for Maiden. It’s impossible to get into their music even live. They are a prime example of the excesses of a lot of prog. Too much focus on showing you’ve got playing chops, not enough on making interesting songs. Doesn’t help when LaBrie is your singer either.
"The most important thing - to get to the playoffs and move on." Evgeny Kuznetsov
LaBrie is actually the main reason I don’t like DT as much as other prog rock bands, but I still consider myself a fan.

Interesting point Noel brought up re: 30 Rock. I kinda felt it sagged a bit last year too, and I’m expecting my review copy manana.

I’ve never watched an episode of 30 Rock ever. I’m not a real big Tina Fey guy.

It’s a great show, though, and it’ll give you an appreciation for Tracey Morgan. Also, if you like Arrested Development, you’ll like 30.

What they said – I shared your skepticism, but came in halfway through the first season and haven’t looked back.
It’s starting to veer into Will & Grace territory with all the friggin’ guest stars, but the 2nd and 3rd year they let the writers do the work and they were funnier than expected, including some Will Arnett crossover.
"#DCU is like senior prom. A bunch of people standing around waiting for a 17-year old to score."
I just watched the last few seasons of W&G recently and I’d actually forgotten how many guest stars they had towards the end – it was practically every other episode for at least the last 2 years. I hear the jokes all the time but until you see it back-to-back-to-back…amazing.

Could never get into that show. Too much friggin’ yelling (or people speaking without their indoor voice on).

I always really liked it. It’s pretty sitcom-y but people forget that it was actually kind of groundbreaking when it first came on. Not just the homosexuality but some of the jokes they made, it pushed the envelope.
Best seasons were in the middle, though. 2-5 were hilarious and really well done – the first season was a lot of growing pains and by the end they were just kind of trotting out guest stars. Still like it though, I’m not ashamed :P

I really hate stupid people
So one way or another, a mass email got sent out to my corporate email address that had what was pretty clearly a link to some sort of virus or trojan or whatever. Since then, I’ve gotten about 50 emails from people reply-all-ing saying either “This was sent to the wrong person,” “I think this is a virus,” or “Please stop replying to all.” NO SHIT.

This is the same reason I hated the Blair Witch Project. Well, there’s two reasons for that one. The verbal part was that they use ‘fuck’ so constantly, after a while, that’s all I could hear. It totally distracted from anything else going on.
Secondly, the shakey camera style made me so incredibly motion sick, I had to leave the theater and didn’t feel right for hours after.

I was… I dunno, 13, when that movie came out, so I was still incredibly amused with casual swearing, so I didn’t mind It. Plus, the movie is pretty genuinely creepy at parts.

It’s kind of like the day I finally convinced an old friend that Lola in the song ‘Lola’ was actually a man in drag. He didn’t want to believe it. Had loved that song for years and years all through puberty when he first realized he liked girls.
I broke the lyrics down for him, and he was so distraught, he had to pull over the car and sit by the side of the road while his reality reshaped itself.

I find that song to be unremittingly creepy and gross.

How are those? I’ve listened to two of the Kevin/Ralph “Babble-On”’s and was a little underwhelmed.
"#DCU is like senior prom. A bunch of people standing around waiting for a 17-year old to score."
I enjoyed “Babble-On”, but not was much as i’ve enjoyed the “Get Old” podcasts (the Babble On guy is a little annoying). The Blow Hard ones are really good so far, great stories (the Porn Closet, Malcolm meets J Lo, Mewes on the Zack and Miri set).

From Now Magazine
Score: A Hockey Musical
-——————————————————————————————————————-
Canada 92 minutes
Directed by Michael McGowan
Program: Gala Presentations
Starring Noah Reid, Allie MacDonald
NOW Rating: NNN
It’s totally hokey, the songs all sound the same, and the ending is ridiculous. So why was I smiling all the way through this silly festival opener?
McGowan (One Week) loves the Canuck icons, the film has an anti-violence message and its two leads are very engaging.
Home-schooled Farley (Reid) is a hockey prodigy who’s never played an organized game in his life. When he joins the Brampton Blades and becomes a star, he loses his sense of self and his friendship with the girl next door (a winning MacDonald).
Don’t know who’s gonna go for this. Hockey nuts will hate the message, while musical lovers aren’t necessarily sports fans and the film snobs will doubtless scoff.
But Score is pretty fun, especially if you’re Canadian. (Susan G. Cole
A clear conscience is usually the sign of a bad memory
