It Might Get Noisy: Caps/Habs Outtakes

Caps/Habs Game Pics

Wednesday Afternoon Ruminations

-- If you haven't yet seen the NHL disciplinary flow chart spoof at Down Goes Brown, go check it out now. When you've finished laughing, prepare for a crash into depression: It's all true. All of it.

--"Joy is a net of love by which you can catch souls." -- Mother Theresa
Actually, joy is a net of love called more cap space.

--What the bloody hell were the Habs wearing last night? If this was the pre-Wild NHL, a joke about Santa's elves might be in order. Fugly. In any other year, it would be unforgivable. Granted, last night's sweaters weren't as bad as the pajama unis that they've rocked in the past.

--Lastly, if you have absolutely nothing better to do this Friday (and that includes playing a golf or bass fishing video game) you should feel free to participate in the CSN live chat I'm hosting. All the cool kids guys who've never heard of Japers are doing it.

And There Was Much Rejoicing

This Is Not A River, Take 2

This Is Not A River

Life without Ovie sucks. Distract yourself:

Ovie Wants You To Vote

--Check out The Peerless' rundown on how the Caps will on won't survive without Ovie. Does Semin get MVP consideration if he steps up his game for six weeks? Suck it, Malkin. Ovechkin's Hart run had to end one day.

--My final project for my Light Studies will be a Frakes-esque depiction of emotional subtlety on the streetball court using black and white film. Incidentally, 3200 speed film ain't cheap. That PayPal button on the sidebar is there for a reason, people. ("You put the 'b' in 'subtle.'" --The Bunk ) I think I'll go with borderless, full-frame prints. I can crop in the moment. Yes, I'm that good. Anyway, it should be fun. I'll scan and post them when I get a chance. I want to do expand on this:



--Vote. Do it. Don't forsake your God-given right to bitch and moan by forsaking your democratic voice.

--Cakelove on U Street sucks. Maybe their other locations are better, but I don't know that I've ever been more disappointed with a chocolate cupcake. That thing was dryer than Voltaire. I give the frosting three stars.

--Advent of the Superblog: JP may have exacted a killing stroke on all competitors. Caps Blue Line, Tuvan Hillbilly, The Red Skate, and now Cheap Seats are all things of the past. It may be that we're all fans, and blogging isn't about competition, but I wonder how many people will continue to rely on OFB and Fanhouse when the alternative is five for the price of one. Truly impressive.

--Finally, we at TTT would like to take a moment to remember A View From The Cheap Seats. Cheap Seats was one of the reasons I set up my own little shop, and CC was a huge help to me as a newbie. I'm sad to see Cheap Seats go. Don't let them civilize you, Rebecca. Don't go changing.
