Hockey is back! Yaaay, hockey! The Avs have no excuse not to be unstoppable except perhaps for a huge vacancy in goal since the irreplaceable Roy has retired. But with all the fire power they shouldn’t need to worry about it.
In addition to Patrick’s absence there is another huge vacancy, a big void in my life if not in the NHL.. Marty (McInnis) isn’t playing. The Bruins bought out the last year of his contract. I’m trying to stay in denial about the whole thing, but the season started today so it’s kind of difficult. Okay I don’t wanna talk about that anymore. I can’t afford to get all worked up about it at this point. Just like I can’t afford to get worked up about the fact that they are using The Cure’s “Pictures of You” in a commercial for HP.
I’ve been known to rant about advertising in this blog before, but not this time. N othing is sacred, I have to embrace it. Besides, short of clubbing baby seals, there is nothing Robert Smith could do to lose his god-like status with me. I mean even the kids on Southpark know he’s a savior and that “Disintegration” is the Best Album Ever!!
