Everyday Adventures

Hit somebody! was what the crowd roared
When Barrister the goon came over the boards
"Coach," he'd say, "I wanna score goals"
The coach said, "BB, remember your role
The fast guys get paid, they shoot, they score
Protect them, BB, that's what you're here for

Protection is what you're here for
Protection--it's the stars that score
Protection--kick somebody's ass
Protection--don't put the biscuit in the basket just
Hit somebody! it rang in his ears

Blood on the ice ran down through the years
The king of the goons with a box for a throne
A thousand stitches and broken bones
He never lost a fight on his icy patrol
But deep inside, BB only dreamed of a goal
He just wanted one damn goal

I was just driving through Hoboken, and some rather pissed off cops were blocking the road ahead.  Upon closer inspection, some car crashed into a building and was completely in flames, enough so that the horn was going off.  Given how angry the cops sounded, I decided that parking and watching it unfold would be unwise.

So I'm no goon.  Hell I play adult recreational no-contact hockey - when you bump into someone else you generally apologize.

But... I played one year of hockey as a kid.  Circe 1984, 1985, something like that.  I was terrible, I didn't like it, I quit.  In that year, I scored exactly one goal.  It's one of those memories that I can remember like it was yesterday.

But yes.  Almost 35 years later.. I just want to score one god damn goal.  Being the assist leader on my team (which apparently I am!) doesn't mean much. I just want. one. goal.

That's an extra safety feature right?

Car engulfed in flames and the horn will lock full on, just in case one hadn't noticed.

There is a wasp in my apartment. Probably entered through the open balcony door.

[The Brain]

It left the same way. I am both relieved and a bit sad.

[The Brain]

It, or one of its personal acquaintances, is back. My emotions are a tangled mess.

[The Brain]

Today I did my taxes.

Similarly this morning I unblocked the drains. 

[The Brain]

Today I saw two hot chicks on bicycles.

Today I saw two hot chicks on bicycles.

I guess there's still that, even with lockdown. Truly an everyday adventure

I think Brain was alluding to something similar to thingy's fish on a bike image.

So few things nicer than a girl's ass on a bike seat.
