  1. If you dont mind Allison, I will field this one. First you should get off the fucking drugs. And if you think by "you" I mean "you" then yes. I definitely mean you. I am so fucking sick of people.
  2. "We spent three days at Miami Beach. Fucking hell! What’s going on there?" Thom asked. "Some kind of reconstruction! For once I was proud to white, pale and English."
  3. The Sloth should appreciate this one. Five times unlucky Habs ghosts turned off by riots. Karma plays a big part in postseason success DAVID JOHNSTON, The Gazette Published: 12 hours ago "You'll have to explain yourself now!" said a colleague at The Gazette yesterday. That's exactly what I had been doing with another colleague over at the water cooler moments earlier. And she didn't like it when I said I thought Canadiens fans got what they deserved with the Habs' quick exit from the Eastern Conference semifinals. I have to explain myself? Well, I did write that story on April 12, headlined "The Habs' magic number is ... 5," which described a series of happy coincidences involving the No. 5 in the Canadiens' surprisingly successful 2007-08 regular season that had led me to believe the storied ghosts of the old Montreal Forum had finally arrived this past winter at the Bell Centre, after a decade of seemingly inexplicable absence. Furthermore, I made the bold assertion - through my own study of paranormal data - that the ghosts didn't just arrive by themselves, they were escorted to a new resting home in the Bell Centre rafters by the most recent of the historic Canadiens greats whose numbers were retired to die and go to heaven. Bernard (Boom Boom) Geoffrion. No. 5. If anybody could orchestrate the magic, it would be the Boomer. Over the years, our hockey ghosts have been friendly ghosts here in Montreal. Until the move to what is now called the Bell Centre in 1996, they consistently brought good karma to the home team. And, we have to admit, the karma was very good (well, for us) during the Boston series; the Bruins missed so many chances, never more so than in the first period of Game 7, otherwise their best period of the series. But Philly? Philly didn't miss many chances, did they? Instead of our own point shots deflecting off the legs of their defencemen into their net (like the Habs' first goal in Game 7 against Boston netminder Tim Thomas), we now had the spectre of Patrice Brisebois scoring into his own net, our net - and that was just the beginning of it. Half the goals that Philly scored had bad karma (well, for us) written all over them. I see that Canadiens coach Guy Carbonneau specifically talked about the role of karma in playoff hockey after his club's elimination at the hands of the Flyers. Carbonneau said he "believes" in karma. Well, so do I. I think you have to do, or have to have, three things to win the Stanley Cup: You have to be healthy. Key injuries are hard to overcome (see: Colorado Avalanche). You have to play to your full potential. (I thought the Canadiens consistently had an edge in all aspects of play against Philly, except for one, the most important: goaltending.) You have to catch some luck, and get the good bounces. You have to have good karma, in other words. The Canadiens, a franchise that reaped more than its fair share of lucky breaks and bounces over the years, had terrible karma during the Philly series. Why? Well, stuff happens, right? It's a game of breaks, as much as it is a game of inches. Or is there more to it than that? I think there is. If you believe in karma, then you have to be at least open to the suggestion that there are also forces that create and determine karma, that giveth and taketh away the good karma and the bad. So what can we say about the Philly series? I think we, in the ghost-fearing community, can say that the otherwise friendly ghosts looked down on Montreal after the April 21 rampage on Ste. Catherine St. and said that this city, these fans, at this time, didn't deserve their favour. And maybe we can also say that these ghosts communicated their displeasure by punishing the many for the acts of the few, so that a retribution against hooligans can and did become a retribution against Habs Nation as a whole. Not fair? Well, go read the Old Testament and come back and talk to me about fair. Maybe I'm wrong. But as a born-again ghost fearer, that's my story, and I'm sticking to it. I don't think it was any coincidence at all that the Habs fell to Philly in five.
  4. Calm down Ollie. No one wants to see you go into cardiac arrest.
  5. That the reason behind him being denied was a rumour, even though he probably is too slow for those kids.
  6. I cant believe you arent trying to adopt the thread title as a band name Barrett.
  7. "Hi Amanda, my name is Ronaldo" Hahahhaha. Awesome. I love it all. For craps sake. You are Ronaldo and you are loaded with cash. Couldnt you at least find better looking trannies if you are going to be confused? UNICEF stated in a statement through its web page in Brazil that it is Ronaldo's "mistake" to link his name with UNICEF. "UNICEF explains that Ronaldo Nazario de Lima is not ambassador of The United Nations International Children's Emergency Fund, and he does not have any link with that agency," stated the statement. The "mistake" was made by Ronaldo himself when he mentioned his position as "UNICEF ambassador" in an interview broadcasted Sunday night by Globo television network. In that television interview, Ronaldo made his first public mention of a sex scandal involving him and cross-dressing male prostitutes. Ronaldo said he "regrets the incident" and is "ashamed by his stupid action" but denied the incident could damage his work as "UNICEF ambassador." "It does not have anything to do with my professional life as an athlete. It does not interfere with my position as UNICEF ambassador. Nothing is going to affect that," said Ronaldo. Ronaldo confused his position "as ambassador" with another organization linked to the United Nations (UN), the United Nations Development Program (UNDP), of which he is "ambassador" together with Zinedine Zidane and Didier Drogba.
  8. You and Ollie believe everything, eh?
  9. Jebas Freak. You might as well as add ScrewinQueers to your list you fackin' Madeline.

    BEER!!

    Brutopia Crescent St in Montreal. Its my new home away from home. They make killer beer.
  11. What? Carey shat the fucking bed playing Philly and Huet sported a goals against of around 2.90 against the Flyers. At least he was able to take them 7 games. The Habs needed some goaltending and did NOT get it. Plain and simple.
  12. As for MattyC, TissueMan and Deuce? We were on RDS. Confirmed. 4 co-workers have already told me about it. The first dude asked "Where did you guys get those awesome helmets?" Man alive, did we have our pictures taken a ton or what???? I am still hoping Deuce and I werent shown on CBC. Fuckin' PEI talked me into doing a drunken robot. YIKES! Let the dry-out period begin.
  13. There's nothing to be worried about Dinghy aside from this pretty serious 2-day hangover I am riding out. Great time in MTL, a poor defensive showing and at least 2 weeeeeeeak goals from Price buried a season in which Les Brahs beat everyone's expectations. Good on 'em. I dont care what anyone says but Gainey made a massive mistake in trading Huet. He was the insurance this team needed. And I wont be surprised if he signs a veteran backup. But on one hand I can see how it gave Carey some invaluable experience yet I dont care at the moment because they had an excellent shot at getting to the Eastern Final and a shot at making a Cup run. We'll see how it all pans out because The Fortress Of Solitude still has to prove himself at the NHL level. Fabian Brunnstrom? [color:purple]Yeah, none of us have ever heard of him.

    [color:purple]Donald 'Duck' Dunn is a terrible bass player.
  15. Brian Campbell with a HUGE goal. Great game thus far. Dallas 2 - San Jose 2. 8 minutes to go.
  16. I'll be with you at Game 5 you fuckers And I'll be ready at 8:30am when you get here. Ring the bell.

    Mrs. Murphy: We got two honkies out there, dressed like Hasidic diamond merchants. Matt Murphy: Say what? Mrs. Murphy: They look like they're from the CIA, or somethin'. Matt Murphy: What they want to eat? Mrs. Murphy: The tall one wants white toast, dry, with nothin' on it. Matt Murphy: Elwood. Mrs. Murphy: And the short one wants four whole fried chickens, and a Coke. Matt Murphy: And Jake. Shit, the Blues Brothers.

    Fuckineh!

    Seems like BradM's night is going to take a similar course as Hal Johnson.
  22. I spy with my little eye someone who is lazy.
  23. Leaving in AJ Burnett when he is CLEARLY done is idiotic. I think its known as pulling a Grady Little.
  24. So being a moderator has its privileges after all. Check out this private message between Hal and NewRider. Its been going on for a couple of days and is facking outstanding! NewRider: yo dude, it’s taco tuesday at Fionn Mccolls, that sh!tty irish pub, they have great tacos, let’s get some beers later Hal: no can do amigo NewRider: por que? Hal: got a spa appointment NewRider: of the happy ending variety? Hal: sort of, yes Hal: the appointment is at my house NewRider: you hired a masseuse? Hal: nope Hal: this is a one-man job NewRider: haha, sounds like a gentleman’s spa treatment Hal: indeed Hal: it goes something like this: Hal: as soon as i get home Hal: I fire up the internet Hal: beatoff Hal: after soiling myself i head to the bathroom Hal: but not before cranking up the tunes on the ol’ hi fi Hal:some zz top perhaps Hal: tres hombres NewRider: naturally Hal: I take a long and satisfying deuce Hal: then — light as a feather and drained of all pesky secksual urges — it’s off to the shower with a beer in hand and a long soak on the horizon Hal: voila Hal: a gentleman has recharged his engines NewRider: god, that sounds awesome. an urban vacation no less. The glow of internetporn is better than those smelly candles and the ZZ top is much more soothing than the Enya they play at the non-gentleman spas Hal: exactly. i wouldn’t be caught dead in one of those dens of ill repute. NewRider: you are like a new man, ready to face the challenges of the unemployed non-work week
  25. This is how you can sneak in booze. One common practice is to put liquor in ziplock bags taped to your body (or in your bra if your’re a chick reading this). The other day I heard of one dude who walked in carrying a pint of whiskey. When told he couldn’t bring it in he chugged it all right in front of security and continued walking through. Turns out it was iced tea in the bottle and he had the “real alcohol†in his pockets but wasn’t searched after his display.
