The Unknown Poster

Anyone lobbying for Pavs to be recalled needs to turn in their fan card and never post again.

I should have included the earlier tweet. Comrie had very good numbers up til a few weeks ago and Pavs was awful. They've sort of flipped spots. So don't give up on Comrie yet

Kurt Angle announced for WWE Hall of fame major change in Vince's mind. But great move. I hope this means he's back full time. Apprently the Mania line up was scrapped very recently with new ideas. I wonder if this is related.

The knives are out on twitter. Coaching taking the brunt.

3 year deal per Lawless.

Lawless making the point that Trouba should play with Morrissey. Trouba playing more minutes than Buff now. Trouba-Morrissey is hopefully our top pairing for the next 12 years. So sure, lets do it. Toby-Buff. And try and figure out that 3rdpairing. Whats the deal with Poolman, is he ever going to arrive?

If the story needs her, I see no reason not to use CGI. They proved with Tarkin that the technology is there. Unless her family is against it. But I sort of doubt that. I just think a new actor will be jarring. And any emotions derived from the scenes wont feel legitimate. I sure hope we got a Luke & Leia scene in VIII.

Boys family supported the relationship. Shrink testified on behalf of accused. Judge was sympathetic

I have a friend who rants about playoff beards every year. His position is that the NHL is at it's most watched and their best players look like scrubs when they should look their best.

Im tempted to make an oral sex comparison to back up KBF's position but Im not sure it would make it past the mods. ;-)

Hmmmm

I'd be against a re-cast. They could use archival footage and use her character in a different way (flashback, speaking to Kylo or Luke). The fact they've dismissed the idea of CGI immediately is interesting. Makes me think her role in IX wasnt critical, despite the director previously saying otherwise. When I was waiting for TFA to begin for the first time, I was nervous. They could have screwed it up. But the opening line of the opening crawl made me realise they got it right: "Luke Skywalker Has Vanished" so I do think the crawl for IX will reference Leia in a similar way "Leia Organa has died". it will be seen as something that threatens the entire movement. In that way, Leia's importance to the saga will weigh over the film without her having to be involved. And I do hope they keep Luke alive. I sort of thought they'd keep him alive throughout anyway. Instinctively you think he's the Obi Wan role and would die in VIII but do we really want all three lead characters to die? IX should end in a homage to Jedi with Luke (and Rey) gazing upon their fallen friends...and somehow referencing Leia and Han at the same time.

Something some of us have been saying for awhile now is gaining momentum

Speaking of Canadian politics, I got a ring at my door yesterday afternoon. A guy wearing liberal badge hands me a pamphlet and asks how I think the federal government is doing. I reply "terrible". MP Terry Duguid was coming up behind the guy and hears that and kind of laughs and introduces himself and asks why I feel that way. In the moment, I didnt have a well articulated reply but basically said that the carbon tax, rising hydro costs for average Canadians, his billionaires retreat making him seen elitists etc. Terry sort of nodded in almost a "resigned" manner and said "yeah...I think he's getting a lot of feedback on those issues". I could tell he'd heard the same thing repeatedly. He was a good sport though. I qualified my response by saying there is always that give & take between voting locally and voting federally and that my issue was with the PM and his policies. He was appreciative of the somewhat conciliatory tone. Nice guy though.

Ofcourse. Because I believe in being kind to the planet. I dont believe in blowing our own brains out in an effort to brag about our committment to the planet to a bunch of out of touch elitists. I agree. And I agree in the government incentivizing the move to other fuel sources. But this carbon scheme is ridiculous. The whole pollution/global warming thing is such a liberal scam that plays on people's emotions. Itas laughable really. Its like the argument used to bring in school zone photo enforcements: "You're either with us or you want to see children laying dead in the street". How do you argue with something so silly? Bingo.

There's evidence Leia was at least force sensitive with zero training. She told Han (I think it was) that Luke was okay after the death star explosion. She said she had images of her mother. Luke told her the force was strong in her. She felt Han's death. etc. Thats a long way from Force Ghost. But you never know.

The director of IX had said he had plans for her more than the previous two. Im sort of bummed because I'd like them to do something cool to honour her but I guess they can still do that without having her appear. i guess the crawl for IX opens with "General Leia Organa has died..." Perhaos IX ends with a Leia force ghost...

I guess he wasn't lying. Go figure.

Damn it

Stafford is having a game. Veteran effort.

Nice PP. Stafford standing in front of the net. Making himself useful.

Carbon taxing. A liberal elitist scam. Just awful. If he thinks we're gonna be off oil in the short term he's nuts. Punishing every day Canadians so he can look good to his elitist pals. This clown isn't remotely up for the job of PM. Disgraceful.
