"Capital Punishment"

I'm pretty sure everyone who cares already knows, but let me reiterate - Pens 6, Caps 2. Domination station.

Let me say, though, that the Pens are by no means the perfect team, and that Fleury is obviously the weakest link, in a strange kind of way. He' a good goalie, sure, but he and his dumbfuck antics get our ass scored on every once in a while and game 7 was a perfect example of that (despite it's insignificant impact). I just don't understand why he feels the urge to fuck around outside of the net so much, especially when Ovechkin is coming RIGHT UP ON YOU. The Cap's first goal was due literally to a no-man net, and there is no one else to lay the blame on than Fleury. Its ridiculous.

So, Marc-Andre, if yr reading this, I've got 2 requests: hold on to yr stick, and stay in the FUCKING net.

Oh and the Pen's 6th goal was the perfect "fuck you" ending. Right after Crosby gets a high stick to the jaw, he takes that puck by himself, totally unguarded by members of either team, down the ice and scores. Beautiful.

Has anyone read Moore's Swamp Thing? Talk about a slow start, but man is it getting good.

*Spoiler*

Get this: This lady, Abby, loves Swamp Thing, and they finally do the whole "I love you" thing but then they start talking about sex and how that won't work, so to make up for it, Swamp Thing poops out this potato looking thing and makes Abby eat it. It turns out that potato thing is actually the ultimate hallucinogen and they go on this crazy wonder-land trip through nature's subconscious together!

  3. They don't really go into detail about it, but considering that Swamp Thing is an 8-foot tall something-or-other elemental with bugs crawling all up in his shit and a mouth that, if looked at in the right light, appears to be one hell of a vine-gina, I'd say the sex would be, at least, a bit... swampy?

  5. It starts out wicked slow. Like, the whole first book is pretty "what's going on?" By the end of the second book, though, its got in hooked pretty hard. I also just started Preacher - its fucking awesome.
