Well, I ain't evil, I'm just good lookin' Start a little fire, and baby start cookin'



finally friday and i just realized that since my mom is coming i have 2 long weekends in a row! woohoo double win. and thank you to the province of british columbia for recognizing remembrance day as a legitimate holiday!

i've decided to make a more concentrated effort to involve myself in the digital world. i'm trying not to dislike it so much. and it's weird cos i don't really dislike technology, i just hate the idea of being tied to the internet as a source of EVERYTHING. but i suppose it's a good source of everything, and i just have to deal with that haha.

so i should say that i saw this movie one time with my friend tamsmobile and it was called the season of the witch. i only mention it cos its on the movie channel now apparently.

let me tell you about this movie:

in some old times, like the 14th century, these religion dudes are hanging and generally torturing witches. when they die they gotta do this magic religion spell so they don't get witch haunted, like ya do. but one time, they don't do it right. and man oh man, she like totally goes all demon witch zombie ghost murder on the religion dude and steals the magic religion spellbook! oh noes! then she makes the plague happen everywhere and it's gross and plaguelike.

then the religion dudes find her and they catch her again and to make sure they get the LAST REMAINING magic book and kill the ghostwitch dead, they enlist NIC CAGE and ron perlman's terrible accents (or lack of accents entirely) and some girls (i think? or they found girls on the way or something? i can't remember it so much) to journey to some monk hideaway in the mountains.

then some terrible stuff happens and some dead guy wakes up for a conversation to explain some plot points, some monks get brutally murdered, and then perlman and cage get murdered so the women they took with them, or found, finished this magic ritual, had a quick funeral and then walked hand in hand into the sunlight with the magic religion book.

how nice.

it's amazingly bad. and here's a secret, i love movies that are amazingly bad. and i love nic cage. he makes movies that are both amazingly bad and also amazing! or he caters entirely to my taste in movies. either way, nic cage crazy pants? can't go wrong. his freakouts are the stuff of legend.

i may watch this movie tonight. because i am just that cool.

What's the matter with the crowd I'm seeing? Don't you know that they're out of touch?


oh man oh man, i forgot about this thing until i got an email saying that i'd forgotten about this thing, go figure.

so. what to say, what to say.
it's been 2 years apparently since i updated this thinger so maybe i will do it more? probably not but i will try.

hunkering down for the winter now so i may have more motivation to do this. plus, i have no roommates to hang out with and so i have to find new ways to entertain myself somehow and i would like to get back to writing. this is a good start.

today i went out for sushi up the road from the new apartment. some place my telephone told me was delicious. we walked in and it was this total hole in the wall. dark and no one there. but man oh man, i tell ya the sushi there was good! the tuna just fell apart in flakes, the salmon was dark pink and cold. we ordered these rolls with yam tempura inside and tuna sashimi with tempura bits on top.. oh my crap they were so good. i have a sushi baby.

also, how awesome to see my uncle bill! and my mother is coming to visit for the first time in a few years next week. it's all family all week, and next! how fun.

and now the part that i really wanna talk about, the hockeys. let's skip the friggen fiasco of last year, and move on to the new series. i have semi intentions of eventually just biting the bullet and making this thinger into a hazel told ya so hockey blorg.

also i preface this by stating this. i make up nicknames for players. i will advise you once in a while of what they are, but maybe not. you can probably guess who i mean, but i don't ever make promises of coherency.

so lets start in the west, where the canucks are dying. and everyone says "oh roberto luongo you talentless hack! what kind of goalie can only win a gold medal and play in a stanely cup final game 7, but not win that too? you loser!" and to them i say cram a walnut in it ugly!
roberto luongo always barfs the net in october and then wins the month of november. october is like a big long monday to him, don't worry about him.
worry about your defence. kevin bieksa (aka meathead) looks lazy/sad. don't give him too much crap he needs some hugs is all and he'll be okay. but man, -9? 10 games in? eeep. the rest of em? lost the german efficency out back they did, gonna take some time to adjust. watch november to look tight though. they'll get a rhythm. kesler's hip will heal, and so will meathead's heart :(

leafs... who the hell ever knows with these guys, but i have a feeling they have it this year. and not in a crazy stupid insano brain damaged kinda of way. more in a not enough to do anything spectacular, but i legitimately think i'll see em post season kinda way. even if only for a round. for some reason kessel and lupul can play together now, and IF tim connolly isn't captain injury bag this season, it could work.

james reimer (aka jimmy) is just, the greatest. for some reason i just love this kid. he's a good goalie (although young) and he's just happy to be there. and a nice guy. always makes sure to make his team feel good when he played awesome. like they helped.

jonas gustavsson, i know everyone else hates him. but i don't. i like this guy for some reason. i want him to do so well, and i think after all the terrible luck the guy has had, he's gonna have a good season this year. i hope so. or maybe i just love goalies more than they deserve (see: vesa toskala).

anyway, maybe i will continue to blorg about hockeys and maybe i won't blorg for 2 more years. in any case no one is reading this anyway haha.

before i go, i have been thinking of caving and joning this twitters thing. mostly to follow ken jennings... is that wrong?
