Where's your "Shameless Pandering to the Canuckistanians" tag?

Blogging Platform Editor Reveals:

The Big Bugger™ Outage of 2011 so fucked up our labels we don't think we can add any.

Besides, this really falls under "Hating Boston Because Our First College Gal-Pal (Who Was From Beantown) Experimented W/ The Lesbianism Over Summer Vacation & Dumped Us, Also Fuck the Celtics," but that's neither here nor there.

Yes, you can figure out the wins and losses without watching, caring, or speaking to anybody at all about them. It shore is great.

Where'd All Them Bldgs. What Weren't There 40+ yrs. Ago Come From? Ed. Adds:

Somewhat the same in the 'hood here, when there's a big deal footsball game on involving Mexico or any Central American country, the vuvuzelas at least let us know that someone has scored.

What happens if Korea & Mexico/Guatemala/El Salvador &c. face off in a World Cup game is something we're worried about.

The change, I have to say, has been pretty remarkable. Not far from where this was filmed (in a building that did not exist then) my old band and I practised in an only-mildly retooled meat locker.

Most of the buildings look spindly and toylike because of Ned's beloved setbacks. The area filmed, I venture to say, was an area M. Bouffant could previously have scored everything that was on offer in the city, and maybe did. The yuppification hasn't completely taken it over but we're almost there.

Missed It By ... Editor:

Sadly, we were never on the loose up there, but always accompanied by the parental units, & barely "hep" except for one or two post-'67 visits.

Greatest thrill was seeing P. E. Trudeau in the coffee shop of the Bayshore(?) Holiday Inn one night, which may have been mentioned before.

Meat Locker ROCK!!

And hell, even Seattle isn't what it used to be.
