Ramblings - October 13, 2009

  • Anyone who live in Canada enjoyed a nice holiday weekend.  So, this is sort of like a Sunday night post.  One of the best parts about turkey day is all the leftovers.  I managed to get 4 leftover turkey meals into me today.  I also managed to take 3 naps - which is probably why I am posting this at around midnight.
  • This weekend was filled with some interesting times.  I went out for lunch on Saturday and actually ordered the fish.  I usually plan on ordering fish and always make a last minute switch to steak.  As a result of this my penis fell off.  No, it really didn’t.
  • I went to a bar I haven’t been to in a long time.  I drank my body weight in beer - which is a place I have been to many times.
  • A plan for late night Chinese food was derailed by some crazy drama.  For once, this didn’t involve me in any way.  Note: shawarma makes an excellent backup food plan when the dead-beat father of some random girls baby is at your favourite late night Chinese restaurant and she is driving you around for some reason.  Don’t worry, that isn’t supposed to make sense.  I was there and I still don’t get it.
  • Spending quality time in bed was definitely needed after a late night food adventure.  My choice of shows to watch was How I Met Your Mother: Season 4.  Barney get’s even more awesome!  I highly recommend this to anyone who enjoys high levels of awesomeness.  If you don’t like the show…well…you probably suck and I don’t want you reading this blog.  Seriously, stop reading.  I can do nothing for you.
  • The Toronto Maple Leafs, with their improved defense corps, can’t seem to play anything that even resembles defense.  It’s a very interesting problem.  Since the opposite result is happening from our efforts then we should just go with that.  They should try to throw a game.  Lay down on the ice and let the other team play.  Sure it’s a bold plan, but it really can’t get any worse!  That seems to be what the guys are doing anyways.  At least this way they can prove an ability to execute a plan for a full 60 minutes.  And there you have it.  My weekend summary.  Since I always try to add value to your visit - here is a cartoon that has nothing to do with anything.

Happy Black Friday!

I made a bit of an oversight yesterday.  I forgot to wish you all a happy Thanksgiving.  I live in Canada and ours was over a month ago.  But, most of the readers of this blog are in the States.  So, I just wanted to wish you all a good long weekend and I hope you had your fill yesterday.  I love Thanksgiving turkey.  My mom cooks a mean bird.  I always wondered what turkey would taste like if it was cooked by my favorite chef:  Swedish Chef.  Here is a video that shows how he prepares his turkey…

Awesome!  Now that day is over.  Today it is time to spend some money.  Black Friday is absolute madness in the States.  We have started to match the dates up here.  A few retailers are running massive specials this weekend.  But, it is nowhere near the craziness down south.  You guys have fucking stampedes!  Here is what has been recorded in previous years…

That is insane!!! You people are nuts! But, I am well protected from your insanity in my house. So go ahead and stampede. You will give me some good videos to post on the weekend. In order to help promote this chaos I am going to give you a link with some Black Friday 2008 Deals. Check it out, throw on your football pads and hit the mall.
