Happy Thanksgiving

Well, tomorrow is Thanksgiving (First you've heard of it? Really?) so obviously, this little blog will be off.

I'm looking forward to a day of food and football followed by beer and football and more days off. Thanksgiving truly is the manliest holiday ever.

Anyway, here are some ridiculous pictures that I found when I googled Thanksgiving:

Dog and cat

An aforementioned Canadian turkey

Um...

Maybe this is why people think Sesame Street is too fucked up for kids nowadays

Anyway, I might check in sometime before the end of the week, but we'll see.

Day Before Thanksgiving Zamboni Ride

Bruins 4, Maple Leafs 2

Finnish goalie Tuukka Rask got his first career win in his first career NHL start as Boston scored the last 4 goals and beat Toronto. Rask was originally drafted by Toronto but traded to the Bruins last year. Rask was last seen running through the streets of Toronto wearing nothing but his leg pads screaming, “I am the greatest goalie in all the world! I piss on your women, Toronto.” This would be sad if he wasn’t yelling in that funny Finnish accent.

Oilers 5, Canucks 4, SO

Like, 12 different people scored goals in this game. That’s a bunch. So I don’t know who you want me to write about here. I guess I’ll just take the opportunity to mention the fact that Canadians don’t celebrate Thanksgiving. (I don’t know that for a fact) Instead they race polar bear cubs down city streets and drink the blood of the losing cubs. (Also, probably not true) The winning cubs are allowed to grow up and eat especially ugly and obese women from all provinces. (Actually is true – that’s why all Canadian women are attractive)

Flames 4, Avalanche 1

Calgary scored 4 goals on 15 shots while Mikka Kiprusoff stopped 20 of 21 and Jerome Iginla scored the game winner in the second. But I can tell you don’t care about that. You want more Canadian Thanksgiving facts.

• Cranberry sauce comes in jars shaped like hockey pucks.

• Turkeys are not indigenous to Canada, but they do vacation there.

• The Canadian national anthem isn’t really “Oh, Canada.”

• It's actually "Hello Time Bomb" by Matthew Good Band.

• Canadians do not actually believe in Barry Sanders.

• Canadians don't mash potatoes - they fuck them up.

A Couple Links

Just found this little...surprise? Gift? Call it whatever you want, tits it's a spread that showed up in Arena magazine featuring the ladies of My Name Is Earl. I haven't seen much of Earl this season - reviews have been mixed - but Jamie Pressly and Nadine Velazquez are as good a reason as any to watch a television show.

Bingo is cool...but Super Bingo? YES! (College Humor via With Leather)

As for this past weekend's trip to the see the UFC? Outstanding. Seeing it live was a hell of an experience. I'm working on something about both the trip and the fight specifically. They should be up sometime.

Finally, I'm excited about a film called Strange Wilderness and it's the Happy Madison boys. Yup, the same geniuses from Grandma's Boy.

What to do what to do...

Just found out I don't have class tonight - so I'm dropping what I'm doing and it's time for some mafuckin' bloggin'. Back in a bit.

School Isn't Fun

It's getting towards the end of the semester and that means I've got another paper due today.

Went to UFC 78 this weekend - sick trip.

Won 4 out of 4 fantasy match ups -

basketball 7-3 (Sorry Jarrett Jacob (I don't know why I keep confusing team owners.))

hockey 6-3-1 (Sorry Julie)

CRMFF - in progress over flake out Christian

In the other league an absolute fucking drubbing over the guy one spot ahead of me that made me very happy because he's been trying to get a bullshit fixed trade in for months and then the idiots in the league vetoed a legitimate trade (Mo-Jo-Drew for Brett Favre) So thank you Bill Belichick and Tom Brady for those "fuck you touchdowns" because fuck those dummies.

Anyway, I'll be doing this shit all day. It sucks.
