…have you seen the price of jet fuel lately?!
In case you haven’t, I actually did a smidgeon of research to make sure the punchline was accurate. Because I’m all about accuracy! :)

fuel prices – making you pay over 400e for 2 hour flight!
in related news, if i had superpower, i’d like to be able to fly…
i miss thrashers already :/

WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP BABY!!!!
I’m finding out early that a Jet isn’t really that cartoon-friendly after all. It has like one pose.
Fuck knows what a Thrasher is, but at least it had arms or claws or something.

You could just use it's wings as arms.
I mean if Disney can have “Cars” bend and flex like they do to mimic humans..

Fuck knows what a Thrasher is
It’s a family of birds and the Georgia state bird, I think. Not half as cool as the Atlanta Flames.

You sir are correct. It is the Georgia state bird.
by Newport Rebel on Jul 24, 2011 3:40 PM PDT up reply actions
Actually they weren't even named after the bird...
They were named after the Inventor of Georgia or something… John Thrasher or whatever his name is lol…
So, in that case, and teams were named after their city’s founders, would San Jose be named the “Moragas” ? What the fuck is a Moraga?

Chicago’s soccer team is named after the Great Chicago Fire…
San Jose’s soccer team is named the Earthquakes…
And the Kings are named after King Henry the 8th, and he was sorta a disaster, so what gives?

You do a good job, though. Sharks are really hard to draw upright because they don’t really have necks. My cartoon sharks just end up as a dude with a dorsal fin, a big head, and gills.
and of course in a sharkskin suit.

As long as you can throw in that dorsal fin, a few teeth, and exactly three gills per side*, you’re all set! :)

Well, no team is going to want to fly to winnipeg, so the team is going to be traveling a lot.
Fuel prices will bankrupt the Jets, then they will move to Seattle.
I'm warning you! I have ADHD and I know how to use it!!!
Good job Giants, now win 3 more world series titles and then you just might be worthy of being mentioned in the same league as the A's.

So, random story. I was flipping channels yesterday and started watching a movie called Swept Away starring Madonna as some castaway lover — the movie was halfway through when I started, so who knows how they got there? Anyways, I watched the rest of it, and the movie was decent, but at the tragic ending, I was struck how awesome the closing song was.
So I did some web pursuit to try to find that song, and turns out it’s a piece called Spiegel im Spiegel, and I bought it and have been listening to it repeatedly like a sap. Very simple — one piano and one violin — but I like it immensely.
Anyways…
www.battleofcali.com
Yeah, that’s probably true. But if you only watch the 2nd half of the movie, it’s not nearly so long. :)

Fuck that movie.
I think Marley & Me is on FX Friday and Saturday.

Which do you play? This one might be too simple, but it’s captivating — I’m billing it as the best song written without eighth notes. :)

I like piano, violin and cello too. I like it mixed with guitar and drums and lyrics.

Oh no! Nabby is tradeable!
Bill Daly says that Evgeni Nabokov will NOT have to clear waivers in order to be traded by the Islanders. If that’s the route they go.
Please not Detroit. Also, I sort of hope not Anaheim, either.
www.battleofcali.com
Oh god, not the Ducks. My heart couldn’t handle playing against him 6 times a season. Wings, well at least they aren’t in our division, but if we had to face him in the playoffs – and luck says yes we would – please not the Wings. My heart wants him to play in the East.

They’re probably just worried because Evgeni Nabokov is better in the playoffs than their current goaltender.
I wish the Sharks traded for Sutton so he could haunt Niemi 82 times a year.
