Sweet, Jere. Anyone else interested?

Also, Happy Canada Day!

Nostalgia:

I'm up for watching some soccer Par

Smith/Lupul for Pitkanen/Sanderson? Will the Oilers, once stocked to the gills with Smy/iths now be devoid of them entirely?

TSN confirms it. Who's the new captain?? (My money's on a shared 'C' between Robert Nilsson and Denis Grebeshkov. Although, who knows? Maybe one of Riley Nash or Slava Trukhno gets a taste.)

One would think it's a little too late for this line of questioning, but seeing as no one else has written anything,

• Was the Face of Bo thing was simultaneously brilliant and cheesy?
• What's the deal with the ring?
• Why is the Christmas special so far away?

Also, I think my computer wants to watch the Doctor Who finale even more than I do; the download just broke 600k/s.

Anyone wanna watch Canada's U-20 soccer team take on Congo this Thursday at Commonwealth? I'm not sure, but the ticket may even include the following match between Chile and Austria and, with service charge, comes out to $30 for the good seats (row 6).

Let me know soon; I want to go, but not alone.

Jon says:

Tjarnquist still isn't healthy and will need another surgery to repair his hip problems. He probably won't play anywhere this year.

Where are you getting this Tjarnqvist out from Par? I have yet too run into that rumor anywhere. The Oilers are so desperate for D there's no way we're not making him a pitch. Not unless we sign three good D-men in the next week anyway.

The fact that he's not in a lot of people's depth charts is more of a response to the fact that he's injured a lot rather than the fact that he's not coming back.

Mind you, we have his rights and we havn't signed him yet. I perhaps think you may be on to something... Damnit

I really need to stop thinking this thing through

Tjärnqvist out, Tarnstrom in?

Hooray, all the Oilers' defense woes are over!!

knitting has nothing to do with deet. since the world has not returned to normality, I am not at knitting. Instead, I went on a walk with my mother, and thusly had to drench myself in insect repellent.
