agentirish! *sends Petr (and his chinchilla)*And happy birthday to the the mama of hockey slash, the mama of Fishy's baby--
littlestclouds!!!So just wondering, but... how often does the Pittsburgh announcer say "you can slap me silly, Sidney"? My follow up question is: does it get any less disturbing each time you hear it?
It was my birthday yesterday! Thanks to everyone for the lovely birthday wishes! You are all very sweet and make me kind of sniffly. :)
My roommate baked me a cake! *cries* And we made breakfast at night. There are not many better things than eating breakfast after 9 PM!

Bahahaha.
I have an idea at least; I'd do the same thing if I had half a chance at Thorty! :)
I would so rip that Sharks jersey off of him. ;)
...and put him in a Stars jersey? ;)
Breakfast late at night, or really at any unbreakfasty hour of the day, truly is one of the best things ever. Yum.
Mmm, bacon and scrambled eggs with bell peppers and cheese.
Mike Lange says "You can slap me silly, Sidney!" with increasing frequency, from what I can tell on highlights, but it's a newer one--ca. this season. I enjoy it. ;) But anyway, that's his shtick. "Lord Stanley, Lord Stanley, Bring me the brandy!" "And the kitchen is closed." "Elvis has left the building." "Get that dog off my lawn!" "Buy Sam a drink and get his dog one too!" "He's grinning like a butcher's dog!" "You ain't nothin' but a hounddog!" (I didn't realize there were so many dog ones 'til I tried to remember them) "He doesn't know whether to cry or wind his watch!" "Carl Earl Slick from Turtle Crick!" And, the first ones I was treated to, thanks to Lover's sound files: "Scratch my back with a hacksaw!", "How much fried chicken can you eat?" and "She wants to sell my monkey!"
Ah, well. He's an institution, what can you do? He claims he hears these things on the streets of Pittsburgh. But people have started sending them in to him, too.
And juuuust in case you hadn't come across this:

This delighted my slashy tendencies and I've never even followed the Sharks. :)
Anyway, thx again!

See, I hear all of that and I think that the guy is just senile. I'm pretty used to strange announcers by this point, though...
*sigh* I love Cheech. I have a couple of articles saved up to spam later today. :)
