Easter part deux

in a strange twist of the bizzaare....I woke up this morning with the below Kinky friedman song in my head......it's funny how the mind works.


Well, a redneck nerd in a bowling shirt was a-guzzlin' lone star beer
Talking religion and-uh politics for all the world to hear.
they oughta send you back to russia, boy, or new york city one
You just want to doodle a christian girl and you killed god's only son.

I said, has it occurred to you, you nerd, that that's not very nice,
We jews believe it was santa claus that killed jesus christ.
you know, you don't look jewish, he said,near as I could figger
I had you lamped for a slightly anemic, well-dressed country nigger.

No, they ain't makin' jews like jesus anymore,
They don't turn the other cheek the way they done before.
He started in to shoutin' and a-spittin' on the floor,
lord, they ain't makin' jews like jesus anymore.

Happy Easter

apologies for the unplanned sojourn, lots of imbibing, yardwork, hooopla la la and the frozen four have preoccupied my time.......Nice visit on Good Friday from the Mcevoys & 1/2 Nolans....Vals Tavern and Molly Maguires for Head n South....nice Bayridge turnout.

as for the frozen 4....KEROUAC Lives.....congrats to Lowell Umass for thier first ever trip to the frozen 4......and the Yale Bones too........shapin up nicely.....now all we need is Quinnipiac this afternoon......could be the best final 4 ever....i will be wearing my jersey below this weekend.

3 Marines dead in Quantico

A marine shot 2 comrades and then killed himself.....Pelosi, Biden, Harry Ried and Co vow to Ban All weapons from the Military....

Slainte~

as overheard in the molly wee on weds

"Chuck.....he says its a hockey blog , but he NEVER talks about hockey anymore....just mean things about obama"...............oh to be a fly on the wall.

John Davidson is quite possibly the shaprest mind in the game today....he has an understanding of the financial aspects that should play a role in every move, he is a superb evaluator of talent and even more important, he has a keen sense to judge character.......character in hockey, moreso than any other sport; seperates good from great........JD is still wetting his big toe in the Ocean that is the NHL , but soon.....and I pray real soon......he will bring his talents to the grandest stage ....Braodway Blueshirts and Madison Square Garden.....the Ranger dynasty is crying to be born.

speakin of hockey.....not obama.......the Dead Wings of the Motor City can say good bye to the Stanley Cup Finals.....next years realignment brings detroit into the big boy conference.....Montreal, Boston and Toronto welcome you to their division.....they will manhandle you physically, you will not make it out alive.....but if you should.....the Rangers, Penguinis, or Satans will be waiting in the Conf Finals......each and every year.

and the caps ?    say goodbye to the playoffs.....your powder cake division has been abolished for eternity.


so i could work a double on tuesday and wednesday, then a night tour on Friday and be off the next 3 days.......blah....blah....blah.

Flight of the Sea Bird

the congregation was 3 deep at the mahogany of Dorrians Red Hand on Washinton Blvd in the Pavonia-Newport section of Jersey city this day, arms flailing wildly to get the barkeeps attention and make a visual plead for more Guiness. The waving of flags of various nations partially obstricted our view of the televisions that were propped upon every outward facing wall and tuned to the news from Rome......"we have a new Pope, we have a new Pope" went up the cry and much ballyhood celebration did ensue....and fitting it was since the Brazillians had scored both the Olympic games and the World Cup that her South American rivals would be tossed a bone and the honor of our next Pope....Viva Argentina shouted nobody in particular, Diego Maradonna and the hand of God Goal....Gooooooaaaaallllll........a confusing day indeed.

Gravey Dog and Messier were pleased with the selection of Pope Francis and the statue by the Pond took on a special glow last night, or was that the aforementioned Guiness.........ah dios meo.....

a tale of two cities

Weds morning :  “The report leaves no question that the sequestration would be deeply destructive to national security, domestic investments and core government functions"   President Obama


Friday Afternoon:  "These cuts are NOT going to be the doomsday armegeddon that some people are saying it will"
President Obama


the difference you may ask ??  same man, 2 very different stories.....48 hours apart........wesnesday was in Newport news talking to military families......Friday was addressing the Press Corps on National news........know your audience....this fukin dictator sure does.
