Hockey Returns
it's a bunch of beer league guys who said they'll play for peanuts (literally). Word has it the salt content of the peanuts may be capped as rising inflation and picking costs could cause financial termoil in some of the small market centres. We'll see what happens though.
I can't wait until the day schools are over-funded and the military is forced to hold bake sales to buy planes.

I just read that Ted Saskin and "three high profile NHL players" are taking the proposal to New York for review by the NHL. Apparently the offer is a $46 mil hard cap with a 100% luxury tax, and if at any point there are 8 or more teams spending $46 mil or more, the cap drops to $42 mil with fines for going over.


Some of you probably think I left. But was I ever here to start?

Whenever death may surprise us,
let it be welcome
if our battle cry has reached even one receptive ear
and another hand reaches out to take up our arms.
Nobody's gonna miss me, no tears will fall, no ones gonna weap, when i hit that road.
my boots are broken my brain is sore, fer keepin' up with thier little world, i got a heavy load.

...and this is me hanging on / i'd burn our initials in the sun if it would shine / anxiety chokes me like razor wire / if hate's in your heart man, you'll take what you're given / wake up / i'm not the only one / it's never goodbye / go ahead and play dead / if everyone's a casualty, then take your time, there ain't no trouble / these wounds they will not heal / ambition can be a tricky thing / what the hell do i know about rape anyway? / this is not what i hoped for / ain't it so weird how it makes you a weapon / who will be there to tell me how stupid i am? / those living for death will die by their own hand / and it's me that I am spying on / pick up the pieces and live with the stars / hurry up and wait / things have never been so swell / they're always the ones who slowly drift / be great / ...and this is my world.
