ABC Miniseries: The Lost
The first half nearly put me to sleep. The second half was better. Looks like Desmond has, like, powers.

Third Eye Blind - Narcolepsy actually I had quite the decent morning at work. I managed to hide my earphones from the boss for a good hour and a half after we opened. That allowed me to listen to pretty much the first 3EB album while stocking, and then most of Thin Lizzy's Jailbreak before I went for coffee. Awesomeness. and thank you youtube, for making me feel old for enjoying theses videos. It's hard to believe a whole decade has gone by since this song came out Screaming Trees - All I Know and an even older song of theirs, Butterfly

I was kind of hoping Pronger would fall coming out of the gate for the pre game skate, smashing bones in his face. Then the talented Neidermeyer brother would trip over Prongs, thus breaking one or both of his ankles. Edmonton would then go on to demolish the Ducks 19-1.

And it looks like Ethan Moreau is done for the regular season. That just blows. Moreau is easily one of, if not the grittiest players on the Oilers. Although he doesn't add a lot to the scoresheet, his skill on the PK and the checking line will be sorely missed. If there's any positives out of this situation, it's that some of our younger players will get some more ice time. And if the Oil lose tonight, on my birthday, to Prongers' team I'll be hellapissed.

iPods suck.
And don't the MPEG files have to be the latest version? Like 4 or something like that?

I've got the 30Gb video. It's true what Oerwinde says about video conversion for it. About the only video I have on it worth watching is the Spider Man3 trailer. And looking through the itunes store for videos is a royal pain in the ass.

The Outfield - Your Love(acoustic) not as cool as the rawked out version, but it's still a neat song.

Me myself, I'd chill out in the world of Irvine Welshs' Trainspotting. Gotta love the Scottish life.

That's just about the same as my season. They make it all the way to the Western finals, where they are about to be bounced by the Oilers. And Brian Savage was the leagues leading scorer for the first month.

Yes, but leading up to that point, I'd be like 'score city'.

Speaking of, the bits with Nathan in action tonight were ...uplifting. Sonic Boom for the win!! Aside from that, I'd use mind reading to get laid more often. Big time.

Datsyuk is uberskilled, but laziness prevents him from doing his best work. I've seen a few matches where he just isn't interested in putting in the effort to make plays work. Ah yes, cherry picking is the term I'm looking for. He'll dominate at the upper level when his heart can catch up with his hands. I just finished watching the Oilers run amok on Phoenix. Decent game, but you can't say beating the Coyotes is anything to get excited about. Gretzky needs to teach some team defence. Does Sykora have more points than Peca and Samsonov combined? Probably. Was that a beautiful one timer he scored on tonight? Absolutely. Pisani looks like he might score before game twelve this season. And Laozi, you have my sympathies. Ruutu, Havlat, now Handzus. Chicago might challenge running champion LA in games missed due to injuries. I can't wait to check my Sportsnet pool tomorrow. I have Hossa and Kovalchuk, plus Bernier and Marleau, and Olli Jokinen in my pool.

They even made a pro video with the single for 'Money'. I remember it being a black and white dealy with lots of camera stops. Then again, my memory told me that Dulli wasn't in the live lineup that I just watched. <_< And Don Fleming has a ****load of producer credits to his name. He produced the Posies' Frosting On The Beater, as well as TFCs' Bandwagonesque. While we're talking decent movie music, I'll present the flip side of the coin: Paul McCartney - Spies Like Us Dan Akroyd:"Hey Paul, we need a song for Chevy and I's new movie, there's a hundred and fifty grand in it for ya" McCartney:"What's it called?" DA:"Spies Like Us. It's a zany romp with hot Russian chicks. Should we send you an advance copy" PM:"No need, mate, I've already written the song out in my head. How soon will I get the cheque?"

My mother is in town and stopping by in a few minutes. I'm doing a quick clean to hide any certain paraphanelia that could be laying around. "

I congratulate you for sitting through that tripe, TN. I couldn't do it. I finished watching the last few chapters of The Big Lebowski a while back. Still a classic. And finally I can say I've seen Rounders from start to finish. Great show.

There's that, and then there's the whole problem with casting Jessica Alba as a scientist.

I don't want to start any blasphemous rumours, but I think that God has a sick sense of humour.
