  1. About the WJC's I have to say the US-Finland game I went to there was about 30-35% Americans. The Canadians were way more amped about being there though, and their team had beaten Russia earlier in the day. I overheard someone behind me talking, they came all the way from Victoria, BC, and the green guys were there, it was like seeing a Leafs-Sabres game! The parking sticker shock was pretty nuts, I don't think I've ever paid more than 10 bucks to park at HSBC, I paid 25 to park for that game. That was a debacle. Plus, the US didn't really have a strong showing, though they redeemed themselves somewhat against Sweden. There really isn't total redemption available, from me at least, that Canada game sucked that bad. I think what Russia did was very strategic. They lulled Canada into thinking they had it, and struck when the Canadians were just trying to D it out for the win. It was obvious from Russia's win over Sweden that they weren't above being sneaky like that. They pretty much rock for coming here and pulling that off. It's fitting that it happened in Buffalo a bunch of unsigned, scrappy, not so pretty boys with a dirty, gritty championship. I say that with nothing but love for the dirt. It's more fitting than if the US had won it even.
  2. Where was the US all tournament, they barely pulled it off against Finland, scraped one out against the Swiss, this was certainly not last years team. They seemed to me like they were more concerned with showing off to the NHL brass. blackboat, Fluery had a bad night, so what? That wasn't hockey, it was more like water-polo, the outdoor game should be outlawed below the 42nd latitude, it was just a crappy game all around, the third period was a waste. I didn't watch the rest of the game. Fluery has shone plenty enough elsewhere to be their goto guy. And also, why do you guys put Chara third in the shootout, he's good from the point, and standing in front of the net on the power play, but does he have a good SO percentage or something, I don't see the logic.
  3. If anyone asks, I wasn't on here. Just checking in on what y'all up to. Been checking out the World Juniors. Been pretty upset with the Sabres, but there's too much bad blood with anyone in the east, except maybe Atlanta, since they've got Pavelec, coached by who? ? ?, the Canadian Cowboy Goalie with the Cuban Necktie, Clint Malarchuk! I love that guy, and I wish he would stop trying to kill himself. I also wish the green guys would stay in Van, do any Canucks fans like those fools? Are they even hockey fans? Either way, they have no business at an amateur event like the IIHF. What were they there for? However, I have to admit they have some moves, and they did not seem to get up for crappy songs.
  4. Not sure I want to play again this year if everyone's not going to show up and play their players, yeah, that's right, every week!

    Eating Organic

    I don't have the time to read this one, but I started to, and the crux of everyone's argument is that organic can't feed everybody on the plant, well, what can? Corporate ag is having trouble with just feeding it's sheep, the Americans!
  6. 100%, rocked it, gotta love the multiple choices.
  7. Re: NHL 09-10 Season (aka pens repeat, kris draper loves anal sex) Man, I'm beginning to really like Halak. I really like him. Ever since the Olympics I've begun to think he's the best, in the East at least because that's what I watch mostly. That left pad save on Malkin in the 3rd, INSANE! Almost single handedly knocking out the, arguably, best and second best teams in the east and beating Mother Russia, already a stellar year. What is next?
  8. I always wanted to order a real TurDuckEn from Hebert's or that other place. They seem to be a good deal at like $70 for sixteen servings. I have been scheming often since I picked up this book in October at a used book store I don't know about shipping already cooked food. I would much rather have the pros send me the product with instructions.
  9. Re: NHL 09-10 Season (aka pens repeat, kris draper loves anal sex) I forgot about that, Marty's stalker, until I saw that picture. I am kinda pissed, I looked on Google news just now, normally light hockey news, only to see the score before I watched the DVR of tonight's 4-3 win. Anyway, take some of your own one goal medicine, 'burghers. Myers should go to the 'lympics, kids that good now.
  10. Re: NHL 09-10 Season (aka pens repeat, kris draper loves anal sex) Man, congrats to Marty. These goalies need some more regulation, anyone see the tying goal in the Aves-Ducks game tonight. That was ridiculous, dude, Ryan was fucking watching over his shoulder at the puck while he bowled over Anderson, who had played a hell of a hockey game. It was called a goal. Fucking bullshit. Reminds me of a certain Montreal Sabres game, the first one this season which we lost. That shit's wrong.
  11. I'm currently loving the Google Earth, especially the 3D buildings, they are mostly low tech and load quickly on my computer. There are lots of pics and great history of some of the lesser known/older architectural work. I'm pretty much fascinated by the Chicago guys, that was a very synergistic time for all of civil engineering and architecture. I like architecture. Mostly since time my dad and I cleaned out this old vacant house when I was 12. It was either a F. L. Wright original, or someone really wanted someone to think that it was, however it was left to rot for many years, full of mold. I remember some moldy elephant skin wall hangings that we trashed. Someone bought it and kind of kept it in stasis for a while, but they passed away and their relatives have come in and refurbed it somewhat, a touch of the character has definitely been lost. It's way too small and has zero yard space, but I would totally still buy it. That's a piece of history, it's way more important than things like my stuff or my comfort.
  12. Re: NHL 09-10 Season (aka pens repeat, kris draper loves anal sex) Watched a really fucked up game this past Friday, the Sabres at Phliers. Our lovable wrecking ball, Kaleta, had a punishing hit on a dude and got the boot and suspended two games, looked to me like a bullshit call, but it was a day game, so I figured they'd call it a little tighter, maybe, maybe NOT. Richards took his stick with both hands and speared Myers in the head, popped off his helmet, doesn't even get a penalty. The Rivet-Carcillo fights were pretty cool to watch, I was thinking, after Ph. C. Pronger wouldn't fight Gaustad in the last game. That game was brutal at both ends, Rivet got the old stick sluice to his feet and messed up his knee when he subsequently crashed into the boards. I don't know how it is in your teams' games, but watching this one was like watching a train wreck, I think maybe Homered was the word of the day.
  13. tracy t had it right, but failed to make the correct connection. There is so totally the overlooked possibility of some Chinese dude finding the bouy, pulling it up out of the water, chopping off the dorsal fin, and chopping out the gut sac, selling it, and blaming it on a bigger shark. Fuck the Chinese.
  14. yeah i'm in, hope you saved a spot greensleeves
  15. Ok let's test this theory, say countertop, or cabinet. See that there, how you said that, how practically every letter is pronounced like a syllable, that's the accent we're talking about.
