The Deeeep Freeze

So the capital region has been engulfed in a cold snap and you may have thought I perished in the cold judging by the lack of activity here. But fret not my pets I am once again back to entertain you at a time when there is nothing more to do than stay indoors and play with yourself quietly in the corner. It's been so cold my brakes actually froze on my car the other day. Granted, I warmed it up for about 2 minutes but that's beside the point.

Well, since I've been gone Doogie has come out of the closet (big surprise), Pam and Kid Rock have once again split up and Kramer has basically sabotaged his already fast-sinking career by going on a racial tirade. Maybe Micheal Richards thought this would help his career or at least make people think of him for the first time since Seinfeld. The funny thing is he had no excuse for doing it other than he lost his temper. It'd be different if he said he high on smack or mescaline at the time. Then it might be understandable; soon after there'd be an intervention, rehab and then he would return and make a triumphant comeback at the Seinfeld reunion. But, sadly, that'll never happen. In this space I was gonna provide a video of snippets of his outburst added to some of Kramer's funniest moments but I believe it's been removed from youtube. It was quite humorous. You can, however, check it out at www.bbboris.blogspot.com (the November 24th entry). I, like Bbboris Norris, do not condone racism in any way.

Fleets loves the box

Yes indeed I do. I'm talking about watching a game in one of the skyboxes at Rexall, get your minds out of the gutter folks. Last weekend I had the opportunity to watch a game in a box at the Oilers/Blackhawks game and I don't think I can go back. Free food, beer, good company, I felt like I was somebody. It was like I was important, looking out over the commoners in their tiny seats drinking their overpriced heroin beer while I lounged around comfortably like I was watching the game at home. I was barely paying attention to the actual game, I was having so much fun. You oughta try it sometime, it's like first class compared to everyone else languishing in coach. Ahhhhhhhhhhhhh.....

Speaking of the Oilers they were on a roll until the disappointment of last night. To put the cherry on top, Hemsky also got injured. It turned out to be a pretty good, tight-checking game all the way through. The Chris Pronger saga turned out to be nothing more than an afterthought. Edmonton fans have too much class to have mad it any more than a boofest. The game ended in typical Oiler fashion. Countless times I have seen them hold a lead into the dying seconds only to have their opponent score after a flurry of activity in our zone. It ends up being a shooting gallery and it's a wonder why we haven't lost more games in that fashion. Nothing's ever easy in oilerland. One positive at the moment, the oil own the best penalty-kill in the whole league. Who knew? As an aside on the Pronger story, I saw a report on the game tonight on the score. And could you guess who was reporting on the details from Edmonton, none other than Christy Chorley, Pronger's rumored mistress. Coincidence, I think not.

To finish up, heard a while ago from Jabronii JB how good 'Entourage' was and I have recently had the opportunity to check it out for myself. I agree whole-heartedly, nudity, foul language and comedy all in one, how can you go wrong? Where was a show like this when I was a kid, watching TV at 10 pm on a thursday night?

Lastly, digging the new Clipse album "Hell Hath No Fury". It seems like the Neptunes save all their hot beats for these guys. Truly a cut above. That's a hell of a lot more than I can say for the new Jay-z album. Judging by this pis-poor effort(by his standards) he should have stayed retired and not come back, a la Jordan, to stink the joint up. I give it two smashed Cristal bottles out of ten. Maybe he needs another beef with Nas to give him a kick in the ass next time. He just seems too comfortable this time around. Then again, maybe it's just me.
