Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

"America's Best-Known Hockey Mom" drops the puck at a Flyers game, and is booed loudly enough to drown out both the music and the anouncer, from the time they call her name to the time the puck is safely in the hands (err, sticks) of the players: [link]

The comments I've seen keep saying things like "what did they expect -- Philly is 2-1 Dem!" I'm thinking something more like "have they met Philadelphia sports fans?"

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

I wonder if there is a prayer for that...

"I would also pray, Lord, that your reputation is involved in all that happens between now and November, because there are millions of people around this world praying to their god — whether it's Hindus, Buddhists, Moslems, or Flyers — that his opponent wins, for a variety of reasons,"

I love the fact that both the Rangers and the Flyers players look like they want to laugh.

Poor kid, though.

OH! I got to spend time with ita, and to buy a Cat in the Hat hat. AND I also got to have lots of sushi and some super super super yummy cookies from Diddy Reese.

So, a good afternoon in other words.

And since I'm spamming the thread, Noah's Xmas Wish list includes this.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

Oh geez, I'm going to have to feel sorry for Palin now.

Well, just a little.

I feel more sorry for her kids witnessing that. Her, NSM. She signed up for it.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Oh geez, I'm going to have to feel sorry for Palin now.

I'm reliably informed that Philly fans have booed Santa Claus and the Easter Bunny too, so I now choose to believe that Sarah Palin does not actually exist.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

What did you think of the brownie, kat? Best 45¢ brownie I've ever had. I think I'm going to brew a cup of decaf tea for a cookie now.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

I just keep thinking that it's so sad because her family actually does seem to be real hockey fans, and getting to throw out the puck at a pro hockey game should be a real treat and special honor, no matter how batshit a candidate she is.
