How to make it to the big game?

"First she held an auction to see if she could be someones date to the game. Then Axe body spray gave her 4 tickets. She's bringing two of her girlfriends, and she has one extra. To give away to a lucky dude! So basically you get a free Super Bowl ticket and you have three dates to go with."

This story is just hilarious and that girl is a hottie so I thought it was worth the read. Why not give it a shot boys @ myspace.com/superbowldate. Go Bears! Manning is going to choke!

Terje's First Descent

This is a name I hadn't seen or heard in a little while. Mr. Haakonsen AKA Mr. Snowboard himself shows here why he's been the best snowboarder in the world for such a long time. Let's put it this way, NO FEAR! I can almost feel the adrenaline just looking at him lunch up there. Check it out in bigger version

"For almost seven years now, we have been hard at work on the Music Genome Project. It's the most comprehensive analysis of music ever undertaken. Together our team of fifty musician-analysts have been listening to music, one song at a time, studying and collecting literally hundreds of musical details on every song. It takes 20-30 minutes per song to capture all of the little details that give each recording its magical sound - melody, harmony, instrumentation, rhythm, vocals, lyrics ... and more."

Stop looking for Pandora's box, it's right here. Pretty cool, enter an artist or a song and it will play music that have related characteristics, great way to discover music!

Soul Flyers (SkyDiving gone very, very extreme)

Is it a plane? Is it a bird? No it's superman! I saw this video on a promo dvd from salomon a few years ago and its just unbelievable how much adrenaline this dude must get when he flies by the 2 skiers! He almost touches the ground. That's playing with your life and I love it.

2nd Star

Great game for M. Sabourin in Buffalo yesterday. He showed everyone he could pull it off with the big boys. The first W will have to wait till he plays Colombus @ the end of the month. There are great comments on his performance on the canucks website. You can also check the highlights here, the save against Briere in the shootout is unreal.

Tip Tom went to Bufallo to watch the game and he called me with Derek Roy's girlfriend(Pretty hot he said) cell so I could hear the shootout live, I so wanted to be there but I had a great night @ rouge to compensate. Good job Sabou.

35 Sabourin in town for a few days

This week the Canucks were in Montreal to play the Habs on Tuesday. What was really sharp about it was that they play in town once every 3 years and they happened to have 2 days off here, so it gave me a chance to catch up with my man Sabou and Tip Tom who I hadn't seen in a while.

Saturday they played in T. and won an easy game. Then they flew in Montreal and Burrows had booked the vip lounge @ Times supperclub where a few bottle of Grey Goosse where waiting for us. I was surprised to see the whole team coming along and partying. It had been a while since I had been to Times and again I wasn't disappointed. It was a good and wild night and I'll spare you the juicy details since Im sure nobody's interested in those. Wish I had took my camera along for a few souvenirs.
My hungover wake-up call on Sunday was from Dan to tell me practice was at 12 so I showed up @ Bell Center to watch that, then I took him to Shwartz. I went to every other practice so I guess I deserve the title of Vancouver fan #1. On Monday, Luongo got hit in the throat by a wrist shot from one of he Sedin's. I usually don't wish bad luck to anyone, but I was pretty content and excited after that. Especially when we were eating at Shed cafe that night and the coach of the goalies called Sabou to tell him not to drink too much beers(he had already ordered a glass of water), that he'd probably get the start against the Habs since Luongo had to sleep in the hospital.

Let's say that seeing Luongo between pipes at the morning skate on Tuesday was a huge disappointment. Sabou's first win in Montreal will have to wait, but he'll get a shot tonight in Buffalo to show everyone what he can do.

Quote of the week: "Heille le gros, tu sais que je me suis pas brosse les dents!"

Thanks to Sabou for the hockey tickets and thanks to Burrows for a new warrior hockey shaft.

iPhone


You can find the keynotes of macworld 2007 with a breathtaking demo of the iPhone and great pictures of MacWorld 2007 on engaget and you can find additional information with the specs of the iPhone on apple's website.
Can't believe the law to own your personal phone number will pass only this fall in Canada, our lawmakers are just retarded. I don't think I'll be able to wait till then to purchase this iPhone greatness, I guess I'll have to give up the JIPP phone number to change to a gsm carrier ....
ohhh looks like the phone will be proprietary to Cingular for a few months, maybe I'll have to get it from Hong Hong. I guess you all wished you bought Apple stocks this morning and shorted RIM the canadian makers of the obsolete blackberry.
