Huge

thunderstorm in Vancouver today, I had a soccer game in Abbotsford and passed through it on the way there, and then the storm followed me and discharged itself (quite thunderously if I may say) right when we started. We got 18 minutes in and the ref just stopped the game.

Remember when Burrows was on the 4th line?

Now he’s doing this, and this.

Somebody fire Kevin Weekes (Ryan Burrows? LOL) and put an “A” on Burrows’ jersey.

Yeah that sucks about classes only offered once a year. I swear they do that so you have to spend more time doing your undergrad.

Yeah man I hate early classes. Even if it sounded like an awesome opportunity, I’ve never signed up for a class that started before 9am (and rarely even classes at 9) unless it was absolutely necessary for my program. I’ve declined some classes I’ve later regretted though, so what do I know.

since i changed my major already, i’m already waiting until the spring for a 2nd year course like that. because of it, i’ll definitely need a 5th year for a program that could’ve easily ended in 4.
oh well, the 3rd-year courses are getting more specialized towards their programs. i finally found all my fellow math and financial math & econ majors!

And that’s not to count the indie groups you guys probably don’t like, such as Arcade Fire, The Dears, Mark Berube Trio, The Stills…

And the solo acts such as Leonard Cohen, the Wainwrights, Oscar Peterson, or even William Shatner.

But for whatever reason I prefer the westcoast acts, usually.

CC, the reason why I was so worked up about you not liking arcade fire was that I thought you were a man of taste, and for a man of taste to so adamantly dislike the fire is so incongruent with my understanding of how the universe works as to lead me to question all that is good and right in the world.

But your revelation here has set my mind at ease, so thank you kind sir.

Well normally I'd like booze immediately after

I prefer Rise Against over anything else after a stressful day but sometimes all the radio coming wants to play is Nickelback.

I was heading to Vancouver via Skytrain for a concert like a month ago, on a Monday night. Three guys got on with beers in their hands (no brown-bag decency, and it was Old Style Pilsner, something a beer nut can’t stomach the smell of), unable to keep their balance when the train moved. One of them started chatting up this extremely young girl who was very afraid, and spilled his beer all over the floor when he opened it.

So I press the silent alarm. Translink cops come on, take away one beer, walk off and pour it out. Total time on the train: 8 seconds tops. Guys keep drinking, he starts grabbing her hand and she looks at me all concerned. I give him the stare. He starts yelling at me, his friends stop him (I’m 6’3" and I’m with a friend who’s 6’4") and he stops bothering her until she stands she gets off the train, when he starts hugging her so she can’t get off the train. And he smells like piss. So, alarm again, tell him to lay off. He gets angrier, stumbles around, and three security people literally walk by the guy on the train and leave.

I’m talking obviously hammered. Like you could look at the guy and he would look at you for 10 seconds before saying anything. The odor was throughout the train. And he actually had an open can of beer in his pocket.

So he gets angry, makes some threats about slitting my throat and taking hostages and being a terrorist. My friend and I had a few laughs but Translink clearly didn’t care. I saw someone else press the alarm and finally some stubby little man walks onto the train and stands there, and the guy leaves. It literally took a 5 foot tall bald man with a jacket that said Skytrain on it and that’s it. It’s pretty amazing how neutered those people are.

The moral here is, you can drink in the open for about 8 stops and grope young ladies on Translink’s dime. Proceed.

I beg to differ

Pilsner was the beer beverage of choice in my undergrad days. Far better than Canadian, Budweiser or Blue (or Black Label, Club or Big Bear, for that matter). Plus you could count the number of rabbits on the label to pass the time.

I had a friend who built a wall of Pilser empties. I kid you not. The thing was 8 ft tall and 6 ft wide. It was a testament to one summer of fun (and the liver failure that accompanied it).

Ant has REALLY grown as a producer, easily top 3 beat-smith now. Slug has just really matured but I agree doesn’t go anywhere new as much now. But what do you expect when they’ve been doing this for 15+ years?

Lyrically, both albums seem to retread the same ground. With some slightly more motivational shit thrown in.

My summer of hockey starvation is almost over!!

So let me get this off my chest now:

1) I hope Mo makes the team. He can become the heart and soul of this team along with Kesler. Think about it… almost every team has them – Hawerchuk with TB, Guerin with the Pens, etc – guys who are on the tail-end of their careers and earned their keeps and play essentially for nothing but pride. Kesler and Sedins were here in the WCE era but they were too young. Ideally this person would have been Linden but Mo’s lost enough to remind the team what’s at stake, to the city and province.

2) If Aquillini doesn’t mind (“You’re the best!” wink wink), I hope we load up both our farm and the big team. Tambi, Mo, Osteravich(?), Schaefer, Sweatt brothers – sign one, sign all. Ok, I know we are over the cap and s1 on D’s gotta go sooner than later but please… don’t try to bullsh*t me about the cap. 30 of the last 40 years were uncapped so wtf were we doing then?

3) I would appreciate the Sun and the Province to quit drumming up non-sense about our prospects – but I guess we can’t have ‘em all so I’ll happy to live with (1) and (2).

Canucks head coach Alain Vigneault stopped by the Group C practice on Sunday, and was quite encouraged by centre Cody Hodgson. Vigneault watched for 20 minutes and said Hodgson looked strong, albeit against rehabbing players and minor leaguers.

No idea if this has already been posted, but...

this article suggests that Salo at least will be on the active roster for the season opener.

If true, that’s a whole different ballgame. I think a lot of us have simply been deleting Salo and Burrows from the equation. If one (or both) are going to be on the roster come Oct 9, it is absolutely vital that we get under the cap including their salaries.

That suggests to me that someone (or someones) is headed out. Looks like Bieksa might not be so much of a sure thing as we’ve been led to believe. His salary would do it.

That could also mean we could see a bunch of guys on 2-way contracts get called up right after opening night.

From what I got from it

Gillman was saying you could start someone on the LTIR but “in order to maximize cap relief” you would start them on the active roster, then move them to the LTIR.

What “in order to maximize cap relief” actually means is somewhat unclear though. He did mention something about being as close to $59.4M as possible before moving guys to LTIR

Like I said, I’ve not been to it, but the one in Hoboken isn’t supposed to be as good. They’re actually owned and run by different grandchildren of the original guy, too, so not the same management.

I really don’t know nothing about Jersey. Don’t ever go there. As far as street pizza is concerned, I’m partial to Ben’s in the village.
