I hate feeling like this. My chest is all tight and I feel like I’m coughing up a lung.

This question was on a survey form that we had to fill out for Nicole’s school. What kind of dumbass question is that?

Are you racially visible?

Well, of course, I’m racially visible you idiot. Everyone is racially friggin’ visible. Jesus, I swear people are just getting dumber all the time. Oh, the next question on the form was—Are you White?

I kid you not. Can you imagine what kind of shit we would be in if they asked if you were Black or Indian?

And to think these people are teaching our kids. Christ we are in deep shit.

I am amazed whenever I listen to Jimi Hendrix play guitar. He is so incredible and he makes it look so easy.

The fact that Jimi loved his instrument is obvious—nobody can play like that and not love what they do. It makes you wonder though—what would Hendrix have done if he lived past 1970?

He was so innovative in his playing, I’m sure he would have continued to change the way we look at the guitar.

I’m certainly not ready to admit I’m wrong yet, but the Bruins are doing pretty well so far. Their West Coast road trip is over and they came out with a winning record.

The Bruins lost to the Stars and the Ducks, but they picked up wins against the Coyotes, Kings and the Sharks. They were shaky in a few of the games with Tim Thomas holding them in a couple of games.

I think the goalie situation is the most surprising. Manny was brought in to be the number 1 netminder, but he hasn’t done very well so far. He let in four goals against the stars and six against the Kings. Even though they won the Kings game, it still wasn’t a good showing.

Marc Savard has started off well, as has Bergeron and Kessel. Milan Lucic has be doing pretty good too, but Glen Murray is absent so far.

Coming off a road trip with a winning record is always a good thing. We’ll see how they do at home starting next week.

Another friggin’ bad day. Jesus I’m getting tired of having bad days on Fridays. I may stay in bed next Friday just to see what happens.

You have got to be kidding me! These two people are allowed to bring a lawsuit against Apple and AT&T for $1.2 billion?

I don’t agree with a lot of what Apple has been doing with the iPhone and third-party applications, but I do agree that they should be able to lock the iPhone if they want. They have been very open about their deal with AT&T, so if you buy the phone, you know you’ll be using AT&T—deal with it.

But come on, $1.2 billion? These people and their lawyers should be made to pay for being so friggin’ retarded.

Okay, so my trip to Boston yesterday was great—until I tried to get home. I said last night that my plane was delayed an hour, but it was delayed two more times before we finally left. I was getting really pissed off by the time I got on the plane, but I did calm down when I got home. It was 4:00 am when I got to bed.
