to-do: appear in Summer stock play
by
Many many things happening today! First off I haven’t made a hockey post in AGES, then I guess I should give an update on the World Cup, CNTM on tonight and the concert that’s been postponed.
Tonight is game 5 of the Stanley Cup Playoffs (sportsnet). After losing the first two games to the Canes in Carolina everyone expected the Oil to return to Edmonton and kick ass (as they did vs San Jose earlier in the playoffs). Unfortunately they only managed to get 1 game in their favour so tonight we go back to Raleigh, where the Cup will be waiting in the wings for the Canes fingers crossed (hockey posts)
World Cup action – Man this city is going nuts, it’s fantastic! I believe now I’ve dropped to 3rd place in our company office pool but that’s okay – Spain’s win this morning should give me a boost. Later today Saudi Arabia and Tunisa play. John told me he heard somewhere that each player on the Saudi team gets $45K for every game they win – talk about incentive. (official schedule) The ‘home team’ Germany will take on Poland later on today as well. (football posts)
The only good thing about the Snow Patrol show being postponed is that I can now watch Canada’s Next Top Model tonight – but it’s hardly any consolation. The show is now moved to September AND an all-ages venue. Everyone knows tonight’s show would have been sooooooo good at the Commodore, but such is life. (SP postponed)
Last item of business, Happy Birthday to a fellow female Vancouver blogger! (GusGreeper).

thank you! that was sweet to mention my b-day.
oilers are going to lose im already crying.
i think for my birthday i should be able to pick who goes on CNTM tonight.
ooh call in on a super secret red bat-phone and give trisha the command.
i want alana to go but she’s just kinda slipping under the radar…so i don’t think she’ll be on the chopping block tonight. everyone’s got daggers for Sisi although i think the judges still want to give her a chance – which they should.
Uhm, how come I wasn’t asked to participate in our “company’s” poll for the World Cup. Ahh maybe it was the fear of me winning it all!!! ARGENINA!!! WOOHOO BABY!!!
sorry gus! lucas gave me about 12 minutes notice the other morning so i jumped in :p
Becky, you should conduct a poll regarding the hottness of various nation’s players. So far I have to say the stereotypical English all seem to have bad teeth (other than Beckham *swoon*). Something about those boys from Paraguay, tall , dark, latin, athletic. Yum. On the other end of the spectrum, Sweden with their Blonde hair and blue eyes. I really do watch cuz I like the sport but it certainly adds a little excitement.
