Yes, those are wheel covers. It's actually the picture from the ad. Had a much better shine to it when I picked it up. I've been, historically, pretty easy on vehicles. Bought a '98 Neon in '99, drove that to 192,000km when I bought my truck in '06 with 102k on it...traded that for this. Truck had 234k and was starting to rust a bit. This had 251km when I drove it off the lots...so if I get it to 200,000+km It won't owe me much by then.

Picked up my new ride yesterday. 2015 Ford Escape. First time I've ever owned a brand new car (only 251km on it at delivery). Pretty psyched.

BB King. Dead at 89. I'm not a big blues guy, but I know the name BB King...I can appreciate a performer who still tours and works into his 80's. I always loved this collaboration with U2 from Rattle and Hum.

This round of The Internet is won by Monty!! hahaha

Working a short week on afternoons (5:30p-4a), but still making more than I made last week in a full week thanks to 4 hours of double time Good Friday morning.

My truck is snowed in on the street at my GFs house. Watched the SB there last night, and ended up staying because the weather was shitty, and I had a few drinks...my own damn fault for not planning better. Now, I am likely going to have to take a cab to work in Oakville this afternoon (35km...probably $60-70) because work never closes.

Groin injuries. Felt a little tweak 2 weeks ago during my Saturday game. Played Sunday anyway, didn't feel too bad, actually better than I thought I would. After a week with only 1 game, it was feeling pretty good. Must've pushed a little harder last night. Hurts again. I have a feeling this will be the cycle until hockey ends and I have a solid month before baseball starts. Of course, not playing at all is an option...meh, no it's not!

That Bauer backpack bag is tempting...what's the extra shipping to get it to Hamilton, On. L8H 6J3??

I knew he had been away since the summer, but I didn't realize he had been sick for as long as he was...or that Cancer returned on 3 separate occasions.

I hate "waffle board" live, or in the game...and that stupid "Catawampus". The first time he said "Catawampus to the corner..." I thought that was a players name...haha! Never heard that word in any other context anywhere....and never heard him use it in a TV Broadcast (mind you, I don't hear him all that often). What an odd word to include in the game audio.

This will go down as another great move by Edmonton management! #sarcasm

Long shifters. Sonofabitch...I had 2 shifts in a 12:00 3rd period. (we play 10, 10, 12)

Timing, not just in the play on the ice...but the HNIC broadcast was just talking about how Crosby/Perron didn't even meet until 2 hours before the game. As they finished their story..he scored. Can't find the link to the CBC call...but here is the goal;

Couldn't delay that arrival by 1 day, eh??? Damnit

So...thoughts: Was this a call from Pittsburgh saying "What do you want for Perron?" Or was this a call from MacT saying "What will you give us for Perron?"

So, How much does Goc want for #57? haha.His old Jr number (39) is available. Then again...going from the mess in Edmonton to potential linemate with one of the best players in the world...I'm guessing he doesn't care what number he wears!

^^^^Great analysis! How can it be so obvious to you, and so oblivious to them?????

According to a tweet from Dreger/MacKenzie...David is being shopped as trade bait for a first line Center.

Impulse buy tonight. Warrior Projekt girdle. It was $80 at the pro shop at the rink. I like it a lot. It fits more snuggly (?) than the Bauer One95 I was wearing. Padding seems to stay where it is supposed to...especially the tailbone.

Q: What do you call the guy who graduates last in his class in Medical School? A: Doctor!

I realise that. But, trying hard and graduating with a lower than A average is different than just expecting the A without having to work for it.

The slacker/entitlement of youth today (holy hell, I sound like an old man...) bothers me in industries like media and retail, customer service or sales. It downright scares me when that same slacker/entitlement carries over to health care, law enforcement, and things that really matter to the overall well being of society!

Found out today that the job I was very hopeful for is just a 5 month contract to start. Not sure how I feel about taking a job with the end already (potentially) in sight.

I dropped a jersey off earlier this week for lettering at a place I've had a few jerseys done before. I had the jersey already and bought the letter kit online. They usually charge me $20-25 to sew/press it on. Got a call from her this morning. Thought she was calling to say it was ready. Sadly, no. Apparently, the heat press over heated and burned through the back of my jersey. They are replacing everything, so it will be a very expensive mistake for them...but another week to get it done now. Not really a vent, just sharing a hockey related story. haha
