Another shortie
I know I've been slacking here lately, but I'm still busy so I'm going to share with you guys some links:
1) I was going to act like last night's game didn't happen, but there's some fun hockey stuff on the Internet today, such as Brian Campbell's (R.I.P.) hit on RJ Umberger from a few years ago in the finals for the Greatest Hockey Hits of All-Time.
1a) Molly might not have liked this, but I did: Here's the video again of Patrick Roy's kid brawling like Rob Ray on speed. Sure, it's inappropriate that his father encourages this stuff, but if you know the Roy family history, it's not at all surprising. I'm sure he'll never make the NHL.
2) I don't think she's a new kid on the block, but there's a Buffalo blogger that I've developed a mild Internet crush on. The So-Called H writes Hitler Loves You But I Never Will, which is the funniest Buffalo blog I've read in a while - more light-hearted than the Beast Blog, but biting nonetheless. And she still loves Ryan Miller. (If you work in a convent or something, there's some salty language in there. Just warning you.)
3) Yeah, more hockey: There's going to be a movie on Canadian television all about Don Cherry. It will either be intentionally awesome or unintentionally hilarious, I can't decide.
4) AllThingsJennifer made me happy with this colorful confectionary-sweet set of pictures.
5) Have you ever Rick-Rolled someone? God I hope not. Anyway, the origin of the lamest web meme chimes in on the spoof of his infamous song in the LA Times.
6) If I haven't mentioned it before, I am obsessed with the BBC series "Planet Earth." I have the DVDs and I throw them on whenever possible. Well, the BBC might have another HD hit on their hands with this.
7) It's like Starbucks for drunk people - ETS opened its new location, and I'm pretty sure it's the nicest place to get a chicken finger sub anywhere. (Extra hot, bleu cheese, lettuce, tomato, onion, hot peppers. If you add provolone, God help your heart.)
8) I sit at a computer all day at my job, which means I should probably have a ton of posts for you to read. But as a Web copywriter, my other projects bump Twentysomething a lot, and moments of inspiration are lost. If you have links you'd like to share, or ideas of stuff I should write about, e-mail me at epptwentysomething (at) gmail (dot) com. Or leave notes in the comments. Or facebook friend me. I'm the only pretentiously-named Evan Parker Pierce out there.
