The RiverKings put on two great showings this weekend!
Dumont

Friday night they spanked the Thunder 6-2. Great fight with Kozak and Starenky in the third, with Kozak waving two fingers at him from the penalty box, politely pointing out that this was the second time Starenky had received such a smackdown.

Then Saturday night everyone at the DCC was fired up after Dumont was boarded by Lachapelle and had to helped off the ice in the first period. We managed to tie it up at 3-3 in the third, and then Dumont scored the game winner in the shootout! What wonderful revenge!

I have got to say, the RiverKings are really shining these days. I’ll continue to be a diehard fan just like I have for the last few sad seasons, but I have to say, it’s definitely more fun to watch them win!

Imagine Mary Poppins, as a horror movie instead of a cute, cuddly Disney classic. Now imagine the trailer for such a movie.

Scary Mary

Over at The Disney Blog they have just such a trailer. Makes me wish there were such a film. I’d love to see it!

A couple was celebrating their golden wedding anniversary on the beach in Montego Bay , Jamaica.

Their domestic tranquility had long been the talk of the town. “What a peaceful and loving couple”.

The local newspaper reporter was inquiring as to the secret of their long and happy marriage.

“Well, it dates back to our honeymoon in America , ” explained the man.

“We visited the Grand Canyon in Arizona and took a trip down to the bottom of the canyon by horse.
We hadn’t gone too far when my wife’s horse stumbled and she almost fell off. My wife looked down at the horse and quietly said, ‘That’s once.”‘”

“We proceeded a little further and the horse stumbled again, this time causing her to drop her water. Once more my wife quietly said, ‘That’s twice.’”

We hadn’t gone a half-mile when the horse stumbled for a third time. My wife quietly removed a revolver from her purse and shot the horse dead.

I shouted at her, “What ’s wrong with you, Woman! Why did you shoot the poor animal like that? Are you crazy??”

She looked at me, and quietly said, “That’s once.”

“And from that moment… we have lived happily ever after. “

24 ways to keep your girl happy.
By Chuck Norris.

1. When she asks how she looks, shrug and say “could be better.” This will keep her on her toes, and girls love that.

2. Never hold her hand. This can be interpreted as a sign of weakness. If she grabs your hand, squeeze hers really hard until she cries (this will impress her by showing her what a strong man you are).

3. Once a month, sneak up on her from behind and knock her over. Girls are like dogs; they love to be roughed up.

4. Call her in the middle of the night to ask if she’s sleeping. If she is, say “you better be.” Repeat this 4 or 5 times until morning. This will show her you care.

5. When she is upset about something, suggest to her that it might be her fault. This will pave the way for her own personal improvement, and every girl needs some improvement.

6. Recognize the small things, as they usually mean the most. Then when she’s sleeping, steal all her small things and break them, because jewelry is for pussies.

7. Tell her you’re taking her out to dinner. Drive for mile so she thinks it’s going to be really special. Then take her to a burning tire yard. When she starts to get upset, tell her you were just kidding and now you’re really going to take her to dinner. Then drive her home. When she starts crying and asks why you would do something like that, lean over and whisper very quietly into her ear “…because I can.”

8. Introduce her to your friends as “some chick.” Women love those special nicknames.

9. Play with her hair. Play with it HARD.

10. Warm her up when she’s cold…and not by giving her our jacket, because then you might get cold. Rather, look her in the eye and say “if you don’t stop complaining about the cold right now, you’re going to be complaining about a black eye.” The best way to get warm is with fear.

11. Take her to a party. When you get there, she’ll have to go to the bathroom (they always do). Leave immediately. Come back right when the party is dying and yell at her the whole way home for ditching you all night.

12. Make her laugh. A good way to do this is if she has a small pet. Kick the pet. I always find stuff like that funny…why shouldn’t girls?

13. Let her fall asleep in your arms. When she’s fast asleep, wait 10 minutes, then jump up and scream in her ear. Repeat until she goes home and you can use your arms for more important things (like basketball).

14. If you care about her, never ever tell her. This will only give her self-confidence, then you can never turn her into the object she deep down desires to be.

15. Every time you’re in her house, steal one of her shoes, earrings or anything else that comes in pairs. Only take one of the pair. This way, she’ll go crazy.

16. Take her out to dinner. Right when she’s about to order, interrupt and say “no, she’s not hungry.” Make her watch you eat. Girls love a guy that speaks for her.

17. Look her in the eyes and smile. Then punch her in the face. Girls love a spontaneous guy.

18. Give her one of your t-shirts, and make sure it has your smell on it (but not a sexy cologne smell…a bad smell. You know what I’m talking about).

19. When it’s raining, keep asking her if she’s crying. She’ll say “no, it’s just the rain.” Ten minutes later, turn to her and just scream at her to stop crying. Girls like a tough man.

20. Titty twisters and plenty of them.

21. If you’re listening to music, and she asks to hear it, tell her no. This way she’ll think you’re mysterious.

22. Remember her birthday, but don’t get her anything. Teach her that material objects arent important. The only thing that’s important is that she keeps you happy, and your happiness is the greatest present she can ever get.

23. When she gives you a present on your birthday, Christmas or just whenever, take it and tell her you love it. Then, next time you know she’s coming over on a trash day, leave the trash can open and have the present visibly sticking out of the can.

24. If she’s mad at you for not calling her when you say you will, promise her that you will call her at a certain time of the day. This will make sure that she waits by the phone. Tell her when you call that you’re going to tell her a special surprise. Now she’ll be really excited, then don’t call.

Over at Lapstyle they’re selling these fancy-shmancy laptop covers to keep your laptop nice and warm. They’re stylish, and cute, and THICK (well, they sure look thick, I don’t have one in hand).
Just one problem, laptops by nature are already warm. With more than 15 minutes of use they can get positively hot. So why would I want a nice, thick cover for my feverish Powerbook?
