hockey fights

What an anomaly in modern sports. I can't really reconcile it's purpose, justification, or continued existence. I mean we are all still animals, but really? I've often enjoyed the idea and context that in American Football all of the athletes energy and purpose is driven towards an intended and precise level of physical contact, whereas Soccer in opposition requires a mastering of restraint and control away from such contact. But here? What is this? What purpose? I mean I guess this sort of thing like a lot of very distant topics "got big in the 90's" But weren't we all a lot more bored then? Is this just the same sort of enjoyable interruption as the random fan off in the stands responding to e-mails on his smartphone? Don't we pay good money for this stuff? I mean did these people really get their's worth? About 3/4th the way through you can actually start to see the attention disorders kick in. Are they still interested? Sure their still standing, but it's not a wild Roman mob anymore. It's a VCU basketball game.

I mean I guess I just don't get it, that's all. Maybe one day Sepie could help me understand.

I dunno.

We Made Sushi

Using these recipes:
For the rice itself: http://www.wikihow.com/Make-Sushi-Rice
The simple instructions on the bottom work just as well as the complicated, often digressive ones on top, although it does go into the etymology of the word "sushi," which is kind of tight.
For the sushi in general: http://www.wikihow.com/Make-Sushi
I like the video at the bottom of that page, and its awkward "alternative rock" soundtrack. I don't see what's supposed to be so "controversial" about the guy that made Wiki-How, it seems like a pretty innocuous website to me...
Eel sauce:

We got everything from Tan-A, but their fresh fish is not sushi-grade, you gotta get frozen.

The Noise of History

Cleaning out the attic with my aunt in SF, findin' some good stuff...

A black newspaper circa D-Day:

And best of all, a soul brotha's valentine.
The inside reads:
Most people don't send Valentines
To their 'Brothers,' it is true,
But then most people never met
A real groovy one like you.

That's why I chose this Valentine
It sure means a lot to me,
To know the best darn 'Brother,'
That the world will ever see."

Arms Bleed

thanks to my sister for this one
