go figure.

it's been a couple of days alright.
we're wrapping this show up and have been busy trying to getting everything in its place and keep our brains from getting too far ahead of us...like in cars heading south and eating burritos in parts beyond...oh, maybe that's just me. also, getting the hell outta here before all the IOC blockades go up and the police start to really tell you what the fuck you can and can not do...do i sound bitter? i hope so. and while 'he who can not be named on the blog' has some good points about the games going well for our sake - tourism later on etc.... - there's still a part of me that's chuckling inside, and fuck and outside, about the lack of snow and the warm weather and ...as a guy who snowboarded at cypress mtn. for many years i was very surprised when it was named an olympic venue. really? the place with the sheets of ice for runs? ok, that makes sense. and now with the lack of snow - something that's happened there as well many, many times...it's pretty entertaining. and now the plan to bolster it up with hay bales and wood...so great. and don't think it's not on the radar of the foreign press, it is. i love it. anyhow, if it snows, great....but it won't be enough.
ok, that's my olympic report.
in other news. in a recent bomber game one of the other teams players found my limit or acceptance and then crossed it. sure, i know there's gonna be stickwork, and slashing and such...and i can dish it out or back...but when some guy jams his stick between my legs and rams his stick up into my nuts a couple times as hard as he can...i kinda take exception to that. i won't go into details but i 'took matters into my own hands' and made sure he made contact with the ice quickly and his face made contact with my fist. .....well...'nuff said, except to say he denied doing it and was extra lippy once the refs were in between us. good times. and for my trouble i got a one game suspension...bummer. but i have to say, if it happened again like that, i'd do the same thing.
ok..last night was pizza at coloseum pizza in north van. i don't eat a lot of pizza but that place is great...not a think crust place, so you can't eat that all the time but...tasty. the garbs, mishi, corie and i grabbed larry and drove up there and ate like champs...one pizza would have been good, two was even better, but the third made it complete. have a look at their menu, they have some great stuff...i know 'the pest' doesn't live far from there and probably knows the place.
speaking of the pest. our man craig has done the music for the new kids in the hall show, 'death comes to town' (cbc tuesday nights) and you should give it a look...i've seen the first two episodes and love it. if you like the kids, you'll like this. good work craig!
right. i need to go get a new fan belt for larry as he was making some rather embarassing sounds last night...have fun today.
