Its been a while...

There haven't been any posts in the last while for one reason. I didn't know what to write about. Thats it. Simple. I was also trying to think of a way to make this blog a bit different and all that... but then I thought... its a blog, its supposed to be about random thoughts and all that stuff. So here are some random thought like stuff...

... Pearl Jam continues to amaze me. Even their early stuff which I've heard quite a few times in my day. How can a band be that good? Not one day have I regretted my tattoo.

... For $6500 of my own hard earned money, I should not be busting my ass to find myself a placement. The title "Placement Coordinator" means something... doesn't it?

... Some people amaze me. Not in a good way. I'll leave it at that.

... Almost went to my first strip club last night, but they were closed.

... I am loving running right now. The fact that this winter has not really been a winter and its 11 degrees out today could be a couple reasons, but I love it. Took a while to get back here, but its here and I ain't slowin' down for nothin' this time.

... I cannot wait for "Again to Carthage" to finally come out! Its the book I've been waiting about 7 years for.

For now, that'll do. You may see other stuff posted in line with the above "observations", and you may not. Depends on how productive I feel. Although, it being 11 degrees and sunny outside, I can guarantee you this is the only post today!

Pierre Maguire.... WHAT?

Pierre Maguire - What a knob. This guy cannot commentate to save his own life. He's awful. I'm sure he knows a lot about hockey and thats great... way to go Pierre. But honestly. Do I have to listen to him describe Mark Staal as a "human eraser" or other such tripe? I shouldn't. Gord "Three Chins" Miller isn't that bad, but I swear all they go by each game is a piece of paper with a couple tidbits of information on it that they keep repeating. Its the only reason I know that some Finnish acne-laden teenager named Tuuka Rask is a draft pick of the Toronto Maple Leafs. 'Cause thats all he knows. I'm done with him.

I just don't like commentators who are hired just because they know something about the sport. I know a bit about running, but I would never be a commentator for the World Championships or Olympics. Why? Because I'm not a commentator. I know that. I'm alright with that. Pierre thinks he's good, along with a bunch of others who rely on stupid comparisons, similes, and mindless dribble that means absolutely nothing. Its annoying. Its fake, and people can tell. You can't make it as a coach? You can't make it as a commentator? Take that as a sign!!! You know a lot about the sport but are not good enough to be in it. FIND ANOTHER HOBBY!!!
