In Case You're Wondering

No I haven't given up yet. See what's happened this year. Did the Flyers give up after they lost the first two games against Boston? After they lost the first three games? You can feel it in the air, something magical is going to happen. So to all you bandwagon jumpers who decided to cheer for the Habs and have now given up, you may go back to your old team. It's far from over. The Forum Ghosts are waiting the arrival of Les Habitantes. Forever Proud.

Anthems

What really is the purpose of playing the national anthems at a hockey game? I can fully understand when it is the Olympics and you're playing for your country. But yesterday for example, when O Canada was being played, one of the Pittsburgh Penguins players was saying to it. And good for him. I can't remember who it was but obviously he is a Canadian. Just because his team is based in the States doesn't mean he can't be patriotic to his homeland. And I'm sure if any American-born players on a Canadian team would feel pride when the Star Spangled Banner is played. Maybe they should just have a generic "hockey anthem" and go with that.

Pedestrians

I complain a lot about drivers but sometimes pedestrians are just as bad. People who don't even look when they cross the street. Weren't they taught to "look both ways" when they were young? And is it that hard to wait when "flashing hand" lights up? It doesn't mean you can still cross at a snail's pace because chances are you're not going to make it across before the other light turns green. And there are the idiots who don't even feel like using the sidewalk, thinking that it's a lot more fun to walk along the road.

Driving Pet Peeves of the Month

1) If you're going to change lanes in order to turn right, could you please do it within a reasonable amount of time? Just because you put on your right-turn signal to come into my lane it doesn't mean you can just go right in. These double lane-changing SOB's should be shot.

2) Are you turning left? Please have the courtesy to turn on your left signal before the cars behind you start to bunch up.

3) It's not a law but please, if you're a bit slow could you PLEASE move over to the right lane so people with reasonable driving skills could pass you? This especially applies on the highway. I wish they would have the American law of "drive on right, pass on left" here.

4) HOV lanes are for cars with 2 or 3 people who WANT TO DRIVE FASTER. They are not for cars with 2 or 3 people who WANT TO DRIVE SLOWER.

5) See those left-turn or right-turn only lanes? They don't mean you can drive through the intersection; they mean you have to turn, nimrod. This applies especially on the corner of No. 3 Road and Bridgeport Road where people don't really know anything.

6) The River Rock parking lot should save money and take away all their "Exit" and "Parking" and "One-Way" signs because nobody ever reads them anyways.

Who's Next

Now that Dancing With the Stars is featuring actual stars again, it had me thinking. When this season is over and the public is eventually tortured with another season, who will be on. Which useless celebrities and non-celebrities will be on it? My ugly list:

Heidi Montag (if you don't know who she is, Google her. Yuk...)
Miley Cyrus (yuk)
Paris Hilton (yuk)
Britney Spears (yuk)
Lindsay Lohan (yuk)

Yuk...

The World is a Better Place

Kate is gone! Kate is gone! I can watch TV again! So my new idea, if she likes the spotlight so much let's put her on the next season of Survivor and make sure she doesn't get voted off for a while. But let's get her to do gross things like eat elephant testicles or cockroach larvae (is there such a thing?). Bring her kids along too, since she needs to remember to exploit them. Yes folks, all is well in the world. But now, hmmm, who has taken over the throne of most pointless non-celebrity on TV right now? That mistress of Jesse James is a good candidate.....

Puke

So today's news is that the mistresses of Tiger Woods (Michelle "Bombshell" McGee) and Jesse James (Jamie Junger) are now being offered their own reality show. Might as well put the Queen of Skank Kate Gosselin, throw in Britney Spears, Lindsay Lohan and have as a guest star Paris Hilton. The sick thing is people will actually watch this crap. No wonder America makes me sick.
