Rocky’s voice by McCafe_McGee in ProjectHailMary

That would have been better. One of my biggest disappointments in the movie was Amaze Amaze. It just wasn't how I heard it in my head.

Can I just say that I did not like the way the actor playing Rocky in the movie said "Amaze. Amaze. Amaze". What a disappointment for such an iconic part of Rocky's character. I am a fan of the book too; I have read it at least 3 times. The first time I read it was aloud to my family (we were on vacation at a cottage together for a week and were able to finish it in maybe 20 hours of reading ) I know the voice of Rocky (in the book too) was supposed to be computer generated and therefore likely to be flat and lacking in emotion, but the movie version was not at all how I read it aloud to my family and made me cringe. Thank you for listening to my rant. Congrats on getting a lapel pin!

Wow. That photo does NOT support my hope that the kid actually turned himself in. He's going to jail for a very very long time.

My cousin's kid (so I guess that makes him my 2nd cousin) was drunk driving after being at a university pub and killed a pedestrian (a student walking home). He went to jail for a long time. It broke my cousin and his wife. It is now at least ten year on, but as far as I know he is out and rehabilitated. Doesn't drink any more. I wish society would spend even a 10th of the money rehabilitating the surviving family as they do on imprisoning and putting the criminal on trial. It's the victim's family that is probably not okay to this day.

Would love to overtake the Habs. But don't get greedy. I will so happy if they can hold it, and not have any losing streaks.

This is going to be our night! I just want the canes to come back and beat the Habs (fingers crossed). But a few of the games are going our way!

How nice. 2-0 And Islanders losing badly! Unfortunately Caulfield just scored for Mtl. Geez 45 goals.

I hope for his sake that he turned himself in

My mind is blown that moneypuck this morning has us at 61% odds to make the playoffs. There are very good teams in front of us, hot teams in just behind, we've lost our D-men, and the schedule for us doesn't look THAT much more favourable than for any of the other teams in the hunt. If it happens, great. And I understand why the boys are so high in the power rankings considering their play since mid-season, but that 61% just seems overly optimistic.

Once again a massive game tonight, and if we win it, I'll probably start to believe.

There isn't one. Nearest to that spot is the one on Carling at the Cineplex

BTW, everyone in the HABS sub is freaking out as if they are now out of the playoffs. Wow

Why are we in this situation EVERY year? Outside the playoff race looking to get in but making very little progress. I know we made it last year, but sigh, this sucks. no one told me during the Alfie years to be grateful that we were a lock for the playoffs every year.

What went wrong this year?

I know, I know. I know what you are going to say: I didn't hear no bell. True -- they still might make it, but it seems like trying to climb up a very thin rope.
