How’s the air up there?

WELL NOW.

Some induhvidual by the name of K. D. Wade has written a letter to the News and Observer decrying the fact that the Hurricanes haven’t done anything to Eric Staal in the wake of his arrest other than say “He wasn’t the one hassling motorists and he was asleep when the cops came to kick his group out, so to us it’s a non-issue”.

I would like to take this opportunity to thank Citizen Wade for his letter.

Apparently, since Eric Staal was asleep when the police arrived to toss his noisy group from his hotel, and since he was part of a group that was arrested by a couple of bored Barney Fifes when a handful of them started acting the fool and hollering at passing cars as they were walking down the road, he needs to be IMMEDIATELY suspended by the Hurricanes and the NHL lest the message be sent to young people that it’s OK to drink and be an idiot.

Because of course, being walking along the side of the road while drunk is exactly like shooting steroids to hit lots of home runs, running dogfighting rings, and generally living the thug life. And clearly, no young people in this community have parents to tell them that it’s not cool to have a few beers and then just go to bed. I wonder, would Citizen Wade have preferred that the group got behind the wheel? I guess that would be better than walking down the road after being tossed from a resort hotel because of a couple of drunken morons that wouldn’t listen to instructions while their host was asleep in bed, hmm?

Be that as it may; I would like to thank Citizen Wade for publicly offering me his seat at the RBC Center this season–I’ll be sure put it to good use, attending more games this season than Citizen Wade has likely attended the entire time the Hurricanes have been in Raleigh. I’m sure that while I’m happily cheering for my beloved Hurricanes, Citizen Wade will be “more constructively” spending his time polishing the saddle on his high horse.

I just hope he doesn’t pass out and fall off the ladder–I hear that the air is a little rare up there.

Fuckhead.

September 9, 63 Degrees

 
 05 Aug 2007 @ 2:16 AM 

On 9 September 2007, the Hurricanes’ own Pete Friesen will be hosting his 5k run to raise money for the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society of Eastern North Carolina.

Miz Beth will be participating in the run, and you can see in her commentbox that we all have our stories to tell.

My Grandpop died from Leukemia in June of 1966, four years before Grandmom died (and four years before I was born). When Mom called the Red Cross to get her brother out of Vietnam, it was almost too late–Uncle Jack walked through the door just in time to say goodbye to Grandpop and to apologize for making Mom lie to him and Grandmom about what he was doing in the Army (Mom had told them that he was in Boston learning how to fix computers, so that they wouldn’t worry about him).

I’m going to participate. My hubby will pitch a fit, I’m sure–but I don’t care. I’ll be walking, maybe only the first mile or so, but I don’t care. I’ll probably be finishing sometime around Opening Night, but I don’t care. I’m doing this. I want to do it, for Grandpop.

Mahalo.
