"Each friend represents a world in us,
a world not born until they arrive,
and it is only by this meeting
that a new world is born."

September 9th:
NFL regular season opens today! Sooo happy to have it back, except that at this moment the Raiders are down 17-14 in Kansas City.
[Final score: Oakland 27, Kansas City 24!]

Yesterday I tried to watch a CFL game and I still hate it. Although I do like the rule where you can run out if the field goal is missed. But the game is basically this: Four yard run, incomplete pass, punt; Incomplete pass, incomplete pass, punt; Incomplete pass, Incomplete pass, punt; Screen pass, four yard run, incomplete pass, FG attempt.

It just ain't the same...


September 8th:
So I was walking up Queen Street with some friends when I saw the newspaper boxes below. I couldn't tell what was covering them, but thought they looked cool and figured it was like when In Pittsburgh had some local artists decorate their boxes.

media trap
Then last week I got the latest issue of Lola and read about the boxes! They were not commissioned at all. What happened was the artist, ryanbarrett, stole them in the night, covered them with mousetraps (his medium -- he calls himself the "mousetrap artist"), painted them and then put them back on the street.

How cool is that?


September 5th:
The NHL boys (And 2002 Olympic hockey team) really shouldn't get in trouble for breaking the NHLPA's rules and practicing together. Come on, they're just a bunch of good Canadian kids who couldn't wait to get back on the ice.

If Mario asked you to play, would you say no?

And um, speaking of Good Canadian Hockey Boys, what -is- up with Guy LaFleur hocking Viagra? Stop me before I make a rude "keep your stick on the ice" comment.


September 4th:
Yes, I am a dork! There was no mention of eggs on that recipe page until it says "beat in eggs." Eggs? How many? Duh. It's fixed now -- Spanikopita Recipe. Mmmmmm.

Thanks Joanie.


September 3rd
Can this be for real? A monopoly game with gold playing pieces, sapphires, rubies, a diamond, 18k gold houses and hotels and (of course) the bank is stocked with real cash money. It can all be yours for only $100,000 plus shipping!

My horoscope, from Astrological Dog Fred Milton:
Taurus:

Venus in your humpy house causes leg embracement of uptight visitor! There will be alone time in the basement! Outlook: toilet! But not deeply toilet!

Hey, if the beat poet poodle starts doing weekly I won't need to read Free Will Astrology anymore.


September 2nd:
Okay, it seems like I don't always have the best luck with freebies on the net, but I went ahead and sent off for samples from Inner Science hair care, Bitch perfume, Tom's toothpaste, , and Dead Sea skincar (with Dead Sea minerals!).
