Concert review: Dethklok and Mastodon at the House of Blues (November 11)
Looks like that F I got in Miss Steven's 8th grade English Lab class finally, tragically caught up to me.
"intensive purposes"...? What could I have been thinking? I've heard better English grammer from this camel I trained to curse in the tongue of man.
I'm going to leave it as it is, tho, as a warning to all future pseudo-journalists, so that they will not make the same 'Winter Invasion of Russia"-level grammatical mistakes again.

What, a writer can't have a little poetic freedom from time to time?

Thursday Morning Cupcheck - Hockey Revisionism: What 2008-09 Season?
Klus: I never said such a thing. You can't prove anything. Just forget about it ever happening, which, of course, it never did.

Texas House Bill would allow hunting of feral pigs from helicopters
If I was going to shoot a feral pig, I would definately want to do it from the relative safety of a helicopter. Those pigs are as deadly as they come.

Covenant coach fired after 100-0 girls' basketball game
I don't think people are too worked up about the 100-0 score... but the fact that they went all-out against a school of developmentally-disabled kids is something a little different. These aren't exactly the Lakers running it up against the Celtics.

Michael Irvin to cash in on reality TV boon with ridiculously stupid Dallas Cowboys show
Actually, it might be a refreshing change to see a player on the roster who actually busts his butt. Besides Flozell, I mean.

Philadelphia Eagles 44, Dallas Cowboys 6
Cowboys = Gutless, overpaid underachievers. As much as it pains me to say I Told You So... this is typical Wade Phillips Football. Ask any Bills fan. And expect more of the same next season!

Thursday Morning Cupcheck - Sean's Sloppy Seconds Censorship Special
No kidding: it's no coincidence that the Flames signed Mr. Happy Sunshine himself, Bertuzzi... who ended a player's career with his stick.
If Avery gets anywhere near 20 games, it'll be abundantly obvious where the NHL's priorities lie.

Plano dance teacher goes to jail for ... teaching dance
When I worked for Arthur Murray, I had to sign a non-compete agreement as well. They poured tens of thousands of $$ in every type of training imaginable, and want to protect their financial investment in you as an employee. Made perfect sense to me: when I left five months later (and not on good terms), you'd better believe that I didn't teach dance in Dallas for a year and a half.
This guy signed the same agreement, then used his AM-paid training to go work on his own. He was told not to do the things he contractually said he wouldn't, did them anyways, and is in contempt. I find it hard to feel sorry for the guy.

You could spend a semester or two just talking about the radically different English translations. This one's my fave:

Concert Review: Judas Priest / Heaven and Hell / Motörhead / Testament
Thanks for the corrections, Dopefish. I was actually a little disappointed to find out Tipton wasn't a founding member.. a quick check on wikipedia confirmed it.
Quick update: a friend of mine says that Motorhead "always sucks when they're not the headliner." That might explain their lackluster performance (altho it doesn't justify it)
