The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Thanks for the recap, ita. You are right about the hot. EW had a spoiler about the Washington character that was also teh hot. Not as hot as a greased cage match, but still, hot.

Now tagless for your comfort.

A yellowjacket that's cold?

Nope. It's supposed to be connected to--get this--the CIVIL WAR. The mascot is a BUG wearing a Union Army hat. It ranks up there with the dumbest sports franchise of all time.

But it speaks to how desperate we were for any hockey.

And now we have none.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

What the fuck is a bluejacket???

A yellowjacket that's cold?

See now, I thought it was one with some real hard luck:

My woman done left me
duh NUH nuh nuh
She took off my ring
duh NUH nuh nuh
My nest was whapped by some kid with a stick
An' I AIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIN'T GOT NO STING

I can't even.

OMG that's right you poor people get Hillenbrand. I'm so sorry. We got rid of him for a reason, you know.

Yeah, at least he's cheap, which is why the Jays got him. If he hits .300 with 15-20 homers again, he'll be worth what they are paying him.

And now we have none.

People are turning out in huge numbers for junior hockey up here. It's a sickness.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

Bluejacket. What the fuck is a bluejacket???

Cash, did you grow up in Ohio? I can't remember. Because if you did, surely you were exhorted by every. single. history. teacher. you every had to go see the Bluejacket Outdoor Drama, because it is Part of Ohio's Rich History!

(For non-Ohioans and/or non-history buffs, Bluejacket was, essentially, a Dances-with-Wolves-type white guy who chose to live as a Shawnee Indian.)

t edit Though I don't get why the mascot is a BUG.

t edit yet again Heh -- this description from the Web site makes it pretty clear why the dude became a Shawnee: he HAD to change his name!

....the story of Marmaduke Van Swearingen a young white settler who left the society he was born to live his dream of becoming part of the Shawnee.

What is even happening?

The Sox home opener is also on a Monday afternoon, and in cube land, just two doors down from the Big Boss, I can't even do MLBTV online.
This is when you suggest a team building exercise--and make it a group activity, preferably with snacks.

Ann, that's a ferret.

A yellowjacket that's cold?

Well, after they head north from Atlanta....

You know what are awfully good? The slice and bake ginger cookies from the La Brea bakery. They have little bits of crystalized ginger in them.

Not that I am eating them for breakfast or anything.

I would never eat cookies for breakfast!

However, anytime might be cookie time. You never can tell, with cookies.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

I have cookies on my desk.
