day 04 - a song that makes you sad
day 05 - a song that reminds you of someone
day 06 - a song that reminds you of somewhere
day 07 - a song that reminds you of a certain event
Stupid embedding disabled upon request...really? It's no longer 1999, get over yourself.
Click here to hear "Mambo #5" if you really want to. It reminds me of an epic trip to Chicago in 2000
day 08 - a song that you know all the words to
day 09 - a song that you can dance to
day 10 - a song that makes you fall asleep
Its not a song, but it's damn hard to stay awake on this bridge while Blake is driving.
day 11 - a song from your favorite band
(currently...)
day 12 - a song from a band you hate

day 15 - a song that describes you

OH MY GOD I HATE THIS SONG!! Between the hours of 7am and 1230pm I heard this 7 times between 3 different stations...ENOUGH!!!

Your Homework for Saturday May 7th, 2011
Saturday is Free Comic Book Day.
Find your local shop... HERE
Pick up some free books from the Big Guns (DC and Marvel) down to the Little Guys and maybe, just maybe you will find something new to read.
There should be lots of kid friendly stuff, as well as stuff for more mature readers
While you are there, Grab Volume 1 of CHEW.
Trust me.

Sicky McSickerson
Yup
That's me.
I am battling an Upper Respiratory Infection from Hell.
I have been sick on and off all year...I was sick when I went to the Winter Classic, I was sick when I went to Las Vegas in March, but those colds went away in about a week.
So naturally when I got sick again on April 3rd I figured it was another cold. When It didnt go away in a week I figured I was just getting re-sicked (yes, I know not a word) by my nieces who are walking germ factories, albeit cute ones.
When I was still sick on the 15th I went to the doctor, who informed me of the URI and told me "You sound good and ears/nose/throat look clear so I'm not going to prescribe you anything, just keep up with the cough syrup and you should be ok in a few days"
Yeah.
So on the 24th when I came down with another horrible sore throat,uncontrollable coughing and fever I called the doctor who told me that it was just post nasal drip irritating my throat and she would prescribe me a mild painkiller for the pain (?).
Now utterly convinced that Im dealing with an idiot I got myself a 2nd opinion.
My 2nd opinion informed me that while it was an issue of post nasal drip (ewww) irritating my throat, I also had elevated blood pressure and lowered oxygen levels in my blood due to the URI and the nice wheeze that was living deep down in my left lung.
She also informed me that had I not come to see her I was setting myself up for Bronchitis or a possible hospital stay with a nice case of Pneumonia.
Oh yay.
So here I am, with my antibiotics, my albuterol inhaler, my tessalon for the sore throat, my sudaphed and my excedrin.
And I'm hoping I finally start to feeling better.
Soon.
Please?
That's me.

NHL: National Hypocrisy League *updated*
***Updated
Both Downie and Kunitz suspended ONE game each.
I think BOTH of those calls are horseshit. Kunitz should have been more and Downie, who has a friggin' history of this shit, should have had a bigger suspension too.***
Steve Downie with his completely illegal, left his feet, led with his elbow hit on Ben Lovejoy.
(click here if you cant see video)
Had that been Matt Cooke they probably would have strung him up and removed his testicles with knitting needles.
Hypocrisy...the NHL has it.
(and yes I know that Kunitz elbowed Gagne. Yes I know that was a dirty and illegal move too. I'm just expecting a bigger fine for Koon than Downie, seems par for the course with the NHL)
Fuck 'em.
Let's go Pens!
