Lord Stanley's Cup weighs exactly 35lbs. You wouldn't think this was a lot, especially considering the weight lifted by the players in training, but as many a hockey player, who have lifted it, have stated it's surprisingly heavy. Maybe it's that the exhilaration has caused a fade of the adrenalin, maybe it's because the struggle and drive has caused a bit of fatigue, or maybe it's the weight of all names and history of it, or the combined expectations and dreams of teammates and fans that add to it and give it the weight it truly carries as a trophy among sports.
The losing team can barely carry themselves off the ice, the only reason the winning team can stand is the joy.
So yes, Gagne, a guy who probably presses over 5x that weight, almost dropped the cup, but when you consider he's also carrying the entire city of Los Angeles over his head, I'm surprised anyone lifts it at all.
Congrats to the LA Kings on a fine Stanley Cup run and a well deserved victory.

This was going on as I left work this morning.


Airlifting AC units to the roof of the mall.
It was a hell of a lot faster than I thought it would be.

You live with humans for 49 years, Then tell me you aren't a slight bit twisted.
I don't blame the humans, I know who twisted me, just trying to preserve my sanity, helped me lose it that much quicker. So really I should thank you, homo sapien, for telling me day after day I'm not, you let me be me, I let me love it.
Yes I am a strange sunomabich, and if you can't handle that, well, then, how can you handle yourself?

Finally found one, and at Sears of all places.

Funny thing about humans,
So much wisdom and intellect,
so much intelligence and knowledge,
so much drive to find answers that fit into nice and tidy categories.
If they only had so much wonder.

When scientists speak of the theory of evolution, they have flawless truth, and evidence.
When they speak of a big bang, they know it happened, they just theorize on what caused it.
When they speak of divine creation, since they can find no evidence, they tell you it's ignorant to believe.
When they speak of human evolution, they have a Missing Link (one that hasn't been found, hence the first name Missing) but they ask you to believe, they one day will find one.
Everything around us is masculine or feminine, sometimes, when they touch, they're both.
The masculine flows within the feminine as the feminine swims around the masculine.
It is the way of things.
In the Beforethebeginning, there was no light, no love, there were just two objects floating through a vast nothingness. Two opposite beings (masculine/feminine, positive/negative, northpole/southpole, call them what you wish) being drawn to each other from across a seemingly infinite void. Faster and faster still, exponentially faster, faster than the speed of light (for there was no light to judge nor distance that could be measured) until they met into an explosion of being, This is the end of the Beforethebeginning, Bang badabigbangboom, and here is the Beginning.
Take it where YOU want from there, it's your world you shape around you.

You know, in my lifetime I think I've heard this dooms day shit about 5 maybe 6 times.
So far the great mystery of life has made fools of all who professed the end times.
The ironic part of all this?
On the chance, the 1 in 7 or 1 in a million chance, that one of these prophets of destruction is right,
They'll be no, "YeeHaa I was Right" or "I told you so" 's.
