A Bit of Squid (September 30th)
Hey look, it's the last day of September. For most people, this means getting paychecks or having 1 day left to scramble for rent money. For university students like me, tuition has to be paid by midnight for the fall term. But for us hockey fans, it means that tomorrow is finally October, and the importance of this is that the NHL regular season finally starts next week!!!
- Added (5:07 PM): A creepy new commercial featuring Alex Ovechkin to keep you guys entertained while I'm at work tonight. (h/t to Cycle Like The Sedins)
- Added (11:05 AM):
- Added: The Canucks just renewed their affiliation with the Victoria Salmon Kings of the ECHL. Good, I can still go to games and look for Vancouver prospects.
- Via Tim Wharmsby of CBC on Twitter, Sheldon Souray and Martin Gerber have been put on waivers by the Oilers.
- Via Canes Country, Tim Gleason and Brandon Sutter have been named assistant captains for the Hurricanes. Eric Staal is the current captain, having taken over for Rod Brind`Amour in January.
- Puck Daddy's preview for the 2010-2011 Canucks season.
- Reviewing the NHL's biggest offseason moves.
- SBNation, with the help of Five For Howling, previews this year's Coyotes.
- Checking out the Blackhawks new bling. I wish this meant something other than their Stanley Cup rings.....
- Brian Gionta was named the 28th captain of the Canadiens yesterday. THN has analysis on the decision.
- Hey look, TSN predicts us to win the conference!!! Today's team is the Blackhawks in 3rd overall, which leaves the Canucks and Capitals for the last 2 spots.

I go to a bureaucratic shitstorm known as SFU.

Does every video game have to involve zombies at some point? Can’t people come up with any damn original ideas? I actually kind of liked Red Dead Redemption, but now it’s getting a zombie themed DLC. Sigh

It is a little off topic
but thought since we are all so musical around here you guys would find this cool. I get to interview Jason Bonham on Monday morning. He is doing a Zep tribute tour that kicks off in Dawson Creek so I get to interview the son of arguably the greatest drummer of all time and ask him about his dad and Zeppelin and stuff. I thought that was kind of cool.

No it starts in Dawson Creek
then PG, Edmonton, Red Deer, Calgary and then all over the states before ending in Vancouver.

I have to say
That astronomy today is incredibly impressive. The fact that we can measure the gravitational disturbances on stars from their orbiting planets that are hundreds of light years away is almost unbelievable. Of course, like the article said, it’s totally possible they could go back on this one like others. And I question the habitability of a planet that is tidally locked, even if it is to a red dwarf. Oh, and that scientist should know the one cardinal rule of predictions, never 100% guarantee something! Always leave some room to be wrong, haha.
Even more OT: I fucking love space. There is nothing more awe-inspiring than being out at night, far away from the light pollution of a city, lying on the ground, looking up at a sky filled with stars and nebulae. It makes you realize how insignificant we are compared to the vastness of the universe. Even from just the edge of our own solar system, Earth is but a pale blue dot, one pixel of blue in an image. Just the right amount of conditions came together for life to arise here, on just some rock on the edge of one of millions of spiral galaxies.
Hot Damn! I love thinking about this stuff. I only wish I could live long enough to see the possibility of economical space travel, but even then I highly doubt we will ever get out of own solar system.

+1 for mentioning Carl Sagan’s pale blue dot. RIP. A similar guy today is Michio Kaku. I only discovered both of them in the last couple years, but they are both incredibly smart and great speakers.
