Not me watching Real Housewives of NYC and calling it writing research cause I'm setting a book there. I'm going to start with something nice. Their plastic recycling is impressive. Straight into the lips and the chest. 1/

I've been mulling over this #Habs signing of Chris "you owe us a Stanley Cup" Kreider and I keep coming back to one word. Douchebag. Sometimes my fandom gets tested, and this is one of those times.

Canadiens' Suzuki, Caufield win Selke, Lady Byng trophies
Nick Suzuki grew up idolizing the likes of Patrice Bergeron. Now, he's joined his ranks as a Selke Trophy winner — and on the same day teammate Cole Caufield won the Lady Byng, no less.

I live in a town where if someone says this to me (and they did), I know exactly who all 3 parties were. Don’t know what my nickname is and I’m not gonna ask. - “Turkey Dinner says Recall was arguing with Pots and Pans down by the bank.” They do not mean a financial institution (bank). #Newfoundland

So I was reading a book today (by a long-dead author) and as soon as the FMC and MMC consummated their relationship, her brains fell out of her vagina. When my FMC and MMC had sex, he locked her up for treason and she threw herself over a cliff into the Atlantic ocean to get away from him. #writing

This one has me thinking back on the worst hockey games I've ever seen and the worst was also Canes-Habs on Super Bowl Sunday around 2000. I was so bored I wanted to hurl myself out of the pressbox - and it's a long way down. And they CHARGE for this crap. Incredible.
