Am I the only one who saw this CNN.com article about the "Go Canadian" package being offered by T-ShirtKing.com?

If you haven't read it or heard about it, check it out. I'm not leaving North America any time soon, but I think I'm gonna have to get one anyway. Talk about a stroke of marketing genius!

Doesn't make me very hometown proud but...


With players reaching blurred speeds and body contact both accepted and condoned, hockey is inherently a physical sport. But it wasn’t the actions of the players that crossed the line between rough play and unacceptable violence during a Jr. A game on Sunday.

Two spectators, a woman and her teenaged daughter, ended up in cuffs after allegedly attacking a player and another parent.

Jennifer Labelle, 47, of Ajax, Ont., has been charged with two counts of assault and assault with a weapon while her daughter, Belinda Labelle, 18, has been tagged with charges of assault with a weapon and uttering threats.

The alleged incidents took place during a game between the home ice Ajax Redmen and the Thornhill Thunderbirds of the Ontario Junior A Hockey League.

Jennifer Labelle became infuriated when a Thornhill player hurt her son with a hit from behind. The Thunderbirds player was ejected from the contest and police contend the woman and her daughter threw a metal bar and coffee at the 19-year-old as he headed for the showers.

When the player finally made it to the dressing room, one of the mothers from his team came down to check on him. That’s when authorities say Jennifer Labelle attacked the woman, ripped her clothes and hurting her arm.

The duo are due in court Jan. 13.

Thought it would be cool to see where the majority of hipbasers are. Never know, it could come in handy when trying to get a show taped.

Sarnia, Ontario here....

I've noticed in listening to shows from this tour Gord seems to be making an effort to drop the "Tragically Hip" line from grace, too in favour of the original, "fabuously rich". This has been a staple for the past few tours, and is an obvious crowd pleaser. He even went so far in Portland after belting out the old lines, and the crowd obviously a bit shocked to claim "It's still the same song".
So are there any thoughts on the change? I thought after leaving it out of Toronto, for the DVD, that this was the nail in the coffin. I for one don't mind at all. It seems at times to be a line simply to grab the crowd, which is a bit unnecessary. Or maybe it's been replaced with the line in the Blow...."Out at the speedway, same Tragically Hip thing", which I prefer, almost a "We're the Tragically Hip, thanks for coming, it's been a blast."
So it's just a thought that hopefully sparks a bit of discussion...

And who can hook me up with a copy of it? I can send some cool black and white Hip photographs I took back on the M@W tour in exchange... I also have pics from Gord's solo performance at Steamwhistle. For those of you who read the article on Canoe (written by me Wink ) and the accompanying picture that went with it, you'll know the show I'm talking about...

Would anyone happen to know how to cite an in-press document according to MLA guidelines? I keep coming up with conflicting information. Sad
