CBC Hockey Anthem Contest

When the CBC lost the rights to the Hockey Night In Canada anthem, I was sad. Terribly sad. The sadness I felt was intense, mind-blowing, and filled with all the stages of regret. (beat and cymbal crash) Oh, wait, that was that sex romp I had a few months back with those strippers from foreign countries I shouldn't really name for fear they may want to kidnap me and use me for breeding stock. Any-hoo...

The CBC came up with a brilliant plan to replace the theme song with a new one written by those Canadians with musical talent. I have been listening to a number of the entries on the CBC's Anthem Challenge and, I have to say, a whole lot of them are terrible but there are a bunch that are really good. Here is my pick of the bunch so far:








I encourage you to get to the contest site and vote for the entries you like. You could also vote for the one above. We now return you to our previously scheduled blogging.

podcasting

What else do I do? I talk out loud, record it, and post it on line. I chatter about all kinds of things. Some of the things are nerdy, some professional, and some of them are very much NSFW. Why? Because do them for myself and my non-work life. You can be the judge.
