Running With Scissors

Sunday, July 02, 2006


I was literally just ready to chuck my keyboard off the balcony and give up on this blog. For some reason the last day or so my keyboard was turning caps lock on every time I pressed F and going back to the start of the paragraph every time I pressed A or S. I literally ended up banging it hard against my hand and it was fixed. It's amazing how frusterating computers are sometimes.

More Pronger rumours. Apparently maybe he was banging Staios' wife. Sounds like shades of when Lindros was sleeping w/ Brind'Amour's wife way back when. I also heard that Kevin Lowe told Pronger it would be better if he came clean to the fans about his situation before it came out the ways it ended up coming out. The thinking was if he had explained himself honestly and up-front he probably wouldn't have got such a rough ride. He's probably right. Instead, though, Pronger chose to give Lowe his demands and skip town for vacation to Mexico like the coward he so obviously is. Now us fans are left to fill in the blanks the best way we know how, with ridiculous rumours that keep getting better and better. Alright, enough about Pronger, he's a waste of my time.

A cool thing is being built at the Grand Canyon. It's a glass-bottomes walkway that juts out 70 from the canyon and is 4000 feet above the Colorado River. It sounds freakin' insane. Even the engineer calls it "scary". It can hold up to 120 people comfortably, - how comfortable would you be? - it's designed to hold 72 million pounds, can withstand an 8.0 earthquake from 50 miles away and withstand winds in excess of 100 mph. Very cool.


Saw something I shouldn't have been laughing at today but could not stop myself. There was a blind dude in the middle of the street with his stick looking for something he dropped (?). He kept walking back and forth across this busy street all the while his mom or someone was chasing behind him limping along at a snail's pace pushing a wheelchair he was obviously supposed to be sitting in. You would have laughed to, I swear.

I'll finish with a gripe of mine. I realize it's hot and people need to take off their shirts sometimes. I don't mind it on the street or at the park or something. But when some redneck right off the set of Trailer Park Boys walks in to the grocery store without a shirt, that's where I draw the line. The guy was too stupid to realize how that makes you look. Class was definitely not in his vocabulary.

One more thing. It's not recommended you put a pizza in the oven when you are the last one awake after a night of drinking and you're ready to crash yourself. It could have gone horribly wrong but ended up just being pizza cooked for 6-8 hours and an apartment that will smell like charcoal until further notice. Oh well, it's not my place! ( I really am sorry!!)
