I need to find this exit.

It took forever to get that to load. The whole time I was expecting it to be this one, but I guess it's more geared towards the Sexpos anyway

Don't forget - it's an afternoon game today on ABC.

We start the day with @Chuck Downie on the clock, @DancingPanther on deck, @Magua on the lido deck, and pit on the lido afterdeck. Biff and ajgoal have to make up their picks.

How cool would it be to have a trained eagle who you could order to go get you fresh salmon straight from the water? You could tell him that he could eat as much as he wanted himself as long as he brought yours home. Man, you'd be living the dream. And death-farting the shit out of the Earth.

The Honolulu Ghibli don't fast forward past our Team Commercial......A CarShield Orange



If Stanley Kubrick directed a commercial, it would look like this. The eery centered framing, the haunting vacant stares, the emotionally detached monologuing, the spasmodic bubbling of rage. You can't teach performances like this in drama school. Like with most Kubrick films, I don't know if I enjoyed this commercial, but I respected the artistry.

Another afternoon game on national TV against a rival today. So ...

We start the day with @pit on the clock, @BiggE on deck, @Strawberry Fields on the lido deck, and ajgoal on the lido afterdeck with two picks, or one, depending on when he makes up his earlier pick. Biff still has to fix his brain and pick also.

Speaking of fixing your brain, I finally watched "No Time To Die" last night. It was pretty good, all things considered. In fact, I probably don't give the modern Bond films enough credit. The old ones have some cool factor about them - unlike the similarly-regarded Steve McQueen film "Bullitt," which might be the biggest, most pointless pile of abject shit ever created - but for whatever reason, I have a prejudice against them. I also have a prejudice against Pierce Brosnan, just for being Pierce Brosnan, even though some of his Bond films and most of his Bond girls were OK and mouth-watering, respectively.

These Daniel Craig ones have been good, but I don't really get excited for them. I just hope that they don't start the new ones off with the 007 from this one. She is a charisma vacuum and is in no shape to be running around.

Time to get creative. The NHL draft rules state that in order to be eligible, a player must be aged 18 or 19, unless they are from overseas, in which case they can be any age. We understand you are supposed to build from the net out. Our goalie has not yet been drafted out of Sweden, so is therefore eligible, even at age 26.

I believe that catches me up.

Our pick for team flower is pretty, poisonous and has cool nicknames.

Team Flower - Aconitum aka Devil's Helmet aka everything-bane

The Aconitum flower seems to be the bane of everyone: It is also known as wolfsbane (originally wolf's bane), dogbane, mousebane, leopard's bane, tiger's bane, witch's bane and women's bane. Like the oleander, it is a beautiful but deadly garden plant.

Its downward-curved periwinkle petals resemble a friar's cap, which explains its non-bane monikers, such as the Devil's helmet, monkshood and blue rocket. There are more than 250 species of Aconitum, and it is a member of the buttercup family. Just a few drops from the plant's roots can cause paralysis of the cardiac muscles or of the entire respiratory system, resulting in death.

During the Middle Ages, witches used the wolfsbane in their "flying" potions because of the feelings of dizziness and numbness brought on by its irregular heartbeat side effects . They also used them in love potions, but because these poisonous elixirs often ended up killing the paramour, the plant also earned the name of Mourning Widow.

The only question is if women players are eligible for the NHL draft. I don't know if they are.
