Summer is offically over..

People look at the end of summer as a bad thing. Sure it means back the end of lazy days at the beach or on vacation. The number of available golf days dwindles( but this should also mean more poker played) and B.B.Q is something you do from your back door, no longer out on the deck. But the end can also mean good things. Like what you ask? well in case you didn't realize, and all good Canadians should...but HOCKEY IS BACK!! Oh how i have missed the game that we Canadians call our own. My beloved Montreal Canadians are looking good. A little better than last year, but are in a tough division with Ottawa and a revamped Leaf squad. So as I prepare for the season opener I put out this prediction so when playoff times comes around it is documented that I said it damn it.

1. The Habs will make the playoffs, they will finish 6th or 7th and will make the second round. The Leafs(for the record.. I fucking hate the Leafs) will finish 5th and won't make it past the first round.I can't believe I just predicted the Leafs will finish ahead of the Habs ..only because of Jason Blake And Vesa Tosykala.

2. For my Fellow West Coasters..Your Canucks will make the playoffs riding on the back of Roberto Luongo but will fizzle out in the second round.

3. For the hetero-life mate and you misguided love of the Colorado Avalanche...they still suck, but will make the playoffs in 8th only because Joe Sakic will feel revived with the addition of Ryan Smyth and with some promising rookies they should finish in one of the bottom 3 spots.

There is is...now lets get the puck dropped and get this season started....oh thank god Hockey is back....

Well it's that time..

Well afetr a well desreved rest, here it is time to go back to work. It has been nine very full days of travel, drinks, laughs and time spent at the casino. I have a full update but for now, check out this new band I discovererd thanks to the home office. Which by the way thanks for the copy as I couldn't find it in any store I went into in Vancouver. I present to you 'The Bees"

Just because I fixed my own damn computer...

So here I was frustrated as hell because I am going out of town tomorrow and wanted to take my ipod, but couldn't update it with any of the stuff I wanted to take. I haven't been able to put anything up here, because my computer wouldn't allow me to do it so I decided to take matters into my own hands and was actually able to fix my own freakin computer. So I felt a little good about myself..and just to say FUCK YOU computer gods here's the Iron Man Trailer I wanted to share yesterday, unless of course you checked out the link..



there you go damn it.. oh and this for the poker players among us...
...sick..

and a little music to finish this off...


on holidays now...life is good....

End of the summer, I haven't done this nearly enough..

So here it is September, and unlike the prolific hetero-life mate, I find it hard to blog everyday. But this will change I have decided. I am 48 hours away from leaving for the yearly visit to the home office, but when I get back this every 2 to 4 week space between blog entries is going to change damn it!

But I do have a few things to touch on today however.

1.)First, I am a big fan of where I live. Living here on the west Coast of Canada is a truly great place to live, and on Thursday last week the boss to me and my fellow managers on a grizzly bear adventure tour as a "thank-you"for the hard work this summer. So we all loaded up in a big zodiac and headed through some of the most scenic waters in North America on out way to a river estuary that is home to a clan of 40 grizzlies. It was a beautiful sunny warm day, and we ended up seeing porpoises, sea lions, seal, and dolphins..but no grizzlies. But the ride was fun, and was way better than going to work. (I wanted to share more pictures but my computer is being the bitchiest of bitches, every time I try and add a picture windows shuts down..try and make a play list in itunes..nope shuts down..try and embed the New Iron Man Trailer from Youtube..no way jose..I need help from my bishop of the computer world damn it..)

2.What else is new:...well at the end of August my parents, that have been together for 26 years, finally got married. Bout time the old man manned up!! it's kinda funny. My Mom asked me how I felt about it I was like "you guys have been together since I was 5, and the brother was 1(that's right I am a child of divorce!..back from before it was the thing to do...lol) so it didn't really matter to me..but I am glad they are happy. It was a small ceremony at the (newly renovated) house with close friends and great food...oh right and an open bar!.

3. Finished Harry Potter...book ended just the way I thought it would. I echo the Heterolife mate's sentiment of.."heh"

4. Watched alot of dvd's and movies lately, but you should watch this documentary called "This movie not yet rated", it's an interesting look at the people that rate movies.

For now that's it have to go to work for my last day before holidays. As of 12am tonight I am on 9 days off. Leave for the home office 7am Thursday morning. Can't wait. Although I find it funny. Whenever I go to the homeoffice, there is no one really in the big city. The Leafs are out of town, the Jays are out of town, and except for once when Pearl Jam was in town at the same time ,no big concerts. But this time the night after I get there the Beastie Boys are playing. But thats ok..more important things are going on this trip than concert going.
