Ottawa just wiped their collective @$$es with the Tampa Bay Lighting...8 - 5...oops, goal not counted...make the final 8 - 4. Weird scores for these playoffs, but very good hockey.
I was listening to the Diggnation podcast that came out a few weeks back (episode 41 I believe). Alex and Kevin were talking about how it sucked that so many of the kewl products out there never make it to the states. Seriously, you people in the States have NO idea how much it sucks up here in Canada! Never mind the fact that we can't even get TV shows off of ITunes up here (and btw, why is The Fray US only?! I tried to download their album tonight and I got a “This album is not available in Canada”. We have special “Canadian-only” models of laptops (which aren't as good as the states models out of the gate), we have older cell phones (all those nice new Windows Mobile 5.0 devices with the pull out Qwerty keyboards wont' get up here and to our carriers anytime soon), you guys have all the kewl breakfast cereals...
At one point we could at least say that we had free health care and weren't targets for terrorists. But in the last few months, we've seen more Canadians killed in Afghanastan and more reports that Canada could be a target...and we do have free health care, but just remember you get what you pay for.
Sorry for being a little bitter tonight...
