Me: disgusted

Well, we won, but we sure didn't deserve to.

Sloppy play, not getting the puck out of our own zone, and six shots on goal in the first period and seven in the third? Not a great game by any stretch of the imagination. Not sure how they pulled it off, but a win is a win I guess.

Next up, a sure loss against my nemesis Olli Jokinen. God I hate that guy and his forehead.

Fun Fact: I own a game worn Joel Kwiatkowski Florida Panthers Jersey. Why? Why not? I mean, if I ever move to South Florida, I will have the coolest jersey around. It ain't easy fitting the name Kwiatkowski on the back of one of those jerseys! And I have a decoy jersey if I ever want to attend a Rangers/Flyers game at MSG...the Rags fans will be so confused they won't know how to heckle me!

Farewell, Oscar Peterson

I know jazz and hockey don't really go together, but I'd like to take a minute to acknowledge the passing of great jazz pianist Oscar Peterson.

I wish I could point you to one definitive recording to check out, so you could see how amazingly talented this man was. Truthfully, he was so prolific and so talented that any recording you hear is likely to be amazing.

So please, take a minute to pop on over to iTunes or wherever it is that you get your music, and check him out.

I regret that I don't travel well, for I would have liked to see the man in concert before he left us...

Ugh...vacation


Okay all, I am headed to a place where my internet connection will be sketchy at best...Maine! My sister's wedding is this weekend and I will be MIA for a few days. I will miss you all, but hopefully with the help of my friend Sauza, I will get by somehow.
I will try to post from my iPhone, but for some reason, iPhone and blogger don't get along. Sheesh! Wish me luck, as I will be wearing a bridesmaid's dress that makes me look like a blueberry!

Snap shot free since 93 (that's the only year that rhymes)

I want to appreciate all my fellow bloggers who have chosen not to enable those little "snap shot" pop up thingys on your blogs. At first, they seem really cool and what a cute idea! but they really just slow down the blog reading process. I don't need little things to pop up as I am scrolling down the page, and when I scroll over a link to read the address in my status bar, that little window that pops up is sooooo annoying.

Just keep kickin' it old school ladies!

And those of you who I may have offended with my little rant, it is not too late to just take it off your blog...we may not even remember that you had it!
