    The best part of TDL day was TheGuardian_ being an Eklund rumour source.

      I know you can't always get what you want but getting what we want once would certainly be something.

    Things going from bad to worse on WPGs blue line - Buff taking "personal leave" away from the team.

      @redhdlois I think Brock would've requested personal time off if he wanted it. I think it's "just" a matter of term and a bit of money. I'm sure he'll sign.

      Winnipeg has tons of cap space. They should trade for Honka.

      If they want a younger slightly improved version of Myers, they know how to get a hold of the Sabres.   Ristolainen won't come cheap though.

    This isn't what you want to see when trying to book a trip: "Show 14 longer and more expensive flights"

     

    Yes please! Can we make my trip to Cleveland more painful?

      I'd guess my household (still with my parents for now), is probably very high since we have three full-time workers and a part-time worker in my mom. Individually, I'd guess at about 90th percentile or so.

       

      Results:

      Family: 94th percentile globally, 70th percentile in Canada

       

      Individually: 97th percentile globally, 90th percentile in Canada

       

      Very surprised to see myself so high individually in Canada, but I guess that goes to show how blessed I am. Great reminder on how grateful we should be with what we have. Thanks Jimmy.

    William Shatner's musical ability is under-appreciated.

      I knew Common People would be the video. Very enjoyable. Tho it was all Ben Folds. I don't think Shatner does anything but spoken word vocals. Good album, still.

      yah I really like Ben Folds. Old Bill just cracks me up for even trying something like this. I saw him speak at a UBC event a couple of years ago and he was hilarious.

    With Trump and Kim Jong-Un intent on blowing us all up, this song seems appropriate.

     

     

     

    I think I'm sophisticated
    'Cos I'm living my life like a good homosapien
    But all around me everybody's multiplying
    Till they're walking round like flies man
    So I'm no better than the animals sitting in their cages
    In the zoo man
    'Cos compared to the flowers and the birds and the trees
    I am an ape man
    I think I'm so educated and I'm so civilized
    'Cos I'm a strict vegetarian
    But with the over-population and inflation and starvation
    And the crazy politicians
    I don't feel safe in this world no more
    I don't want to die in a nuclear war
    I want to sail away to a distant shore and make like an ape man
    I'm an ape man, I'm an ape ape man
    I'm an ape man I'm a King Kong man I'm ape ape man
    I'm an ape man
    'Cos compared to the sun that sits in the sky
    Compared to the clouds as they roll by
    Compared to the bugs and the spiders and flies
    I am an ape man
    In man's evolution he has created the cities and
    The motor traffic rumble, but give me half a chance
    And I'd be taking off my clothes and living in the jungle
    'Cos the only time that I feel at ease
    Is swinging up and down in a coconut tree
    Oh what a life of luxury to be like an ape man
    I'm an ape, I'm an ape ape man, I'm an ape man
    I'm a King Kong man, I'm a voo-doo man
    I'm an ape man
    I look out my window, but I can't see the sky
    'Cos the air pollution is fogging up my eyes
    I want to get out of this city alive
    And make like an ape man
    Come and love me, be my ape man girl
    And we will be so happy in my ape man world
    I'm an ape man, I'm an ape ape man, I'm an ape man
    I'm a King Kong man, I'm a voo-doo man
    I'm an ape man
    I'll be your Tarzan, you'll be my Jane
    I'll keep you warm and you'll keep me sane
    And we'll sit in the trees and eat bananas all day
    Just like an ape man
    I'm an ape man, I'm an ape ape man, I'm an ape man
    I'm a King Kong man, I'm a voo-doo man
    I'm an ape man.
    I don't feel safe in this world no more
    I don't want to die in a nuclear war
    I want to sail away to a distant shore
    And make like an ape man.
