everybody gotta have a dream...



finland 2 canada 0...

pffft...i just found out we clinched a spot in the medal round of men's olympic hockey...

all this time i thought we were in trouble. the games don't even count...

phew. what a relief, eh?

today's game? the finns slammed our hockey heroes in the first period. and then, shut'er down with the trap the rest of the game. i thought the flyin' finns played the trap so well, it reminded me of "old" nhl... you know, the old, boring, obstruction-filled nhl. you'd expect better from the finns, eh.

i think the boys are stuck in the "new" nhl. they've walked into the trap the last two games.

maybe it's time to uninstall the software upgrade and re-install version 1.0. fight fire with fire.

now only if they can score a goal.

there's a day off for team canada tomorrow. may i make a suggestion? they should rent out kurt russell's miracle on ice and play it over and over and over...

there is hope, my babies...

dvd's meng...

"man is a dog, meng. i don't mean an individual man. i mean mankind, meng..."

i sat through the first ten minutes of hustle and flow and i couldn't understand a damn thing the bruthas were saying. i turned on the english subtitles and i still couldn't understand a damn thing. then i put on the my mofo ebonic headphones...

i nearly quit on this movie, meng.

as it turned out, hustle and flow was an amazing movie. terrence howard plays a small time down and out p.i.m.p., drug dealer, hustler-turned-wannabe-rapper, meng.

this is the second movie i've seen him in. the first movie being "crash". he is an incredible actor, meng. i dunno what to say other than he had me believing. i haven't seen a performance like this since ralph fiennes played that insane concentration camp director in schindler's list.

this movie must have been nominated for sumthang. so, i checked oscar.com. lo and behold howard is nominated for best actor. but then, it was left out for best pic. got totally dissed. there's no justice in this world, meng. that's one of the reasons why i really don't watch the oscars no mo. i'll watch this year just to hear howard rap "it's hard out here for a pimp" which was nominated for best song.

that should freak out the fcc, meng...
