American hockey promo, fuck yeah!
| "Permission to terrorize Ohio State University? Over. *PSHH*" |
You know those pump-up videos hockey team shows on the jumbo-tron in anticipation for the player entrance? Well imagine pitching this idea to the Alaska Nanooks marketing team...
As a large boat attempts to maneuver through the cracking ice in the arctic, it appears to awaken a frozen, giant, polar bear submerged in the ice below. Angry (or constipated) with electric rage shown in his eyes, the bear was ready to seek revenge on whomever disrupted its hibernation. In a fist of fury, the bear begins to generate electricity from his palms and magically creates a giant hockey stick in which the bear gives it's best Paul Bunyon impression and completely destroys the boat, chopping it in half with the aforementioned stick, creating a large, fiery, Michael Bay-like explosion...
Cut-scene to the bear flying in a jet plane, along with two of his bear friends in jet planes of their own. As they continue soaring through the skies, they decide to drop missiles on college rival campus' like they don't give a damn. Meanwhile, as each school burns down in a fiery blaze, the polar bear decides to deploy a few more missiles into active, erupting volcanoes subsequently, blowing up the entire world. As the world continues to explode in the background, the bear continues to fly into space...
The polar bear then decides to break the space-time barrier by flying through a black hole for whatever reason. As the bear goes further into the black hole, the jet plane dissipates into thin air from the extreme velocity it's traveling. The bear then Superman's through the roof of an arena on a small planet and dangles a puck on ice with his electric-energized hockey stick and takes a slap shot which causes the net to be engulfed in flames.
For the TL;DR crowd, just watch this...
To quote the highest rated comment...
"What the fuck did I just watch?"

A trip down memory lane
Just the other day at Yannie's house while setting up the ping pong table (which by the way, I held an embarassing 0-3 doubles record haha), we found an old school SNES game box of NHLPA Hockey '93...
Interesting to note, it's an NHLPA licensed based game, and nothing to do with the NHL. Which means EA didn't have the permission to use NHL based property and information such as team logos (note that there's no crest on the goalies jersey). However, the most interesting fact was discovering the price of this video game...
I can guess sometime in 1993, this was bought brand new. So in retrospect, the pricing of games hasn't changed nearly a decade later. One thing this discovery proved? There's a better chance a large retail department store will become defunct before the price of new video games will drop.

MASH "soda-pop" is the shiz
Speaking of hot weather, nothing is more refreshing then a light, refreshing, carbonated drink to quench your thirst. I had the pleasure of tasting one of the greatest "soda-pops" I've ever tried about a week ago...
Shaped in an unusual 591mL bottle with a wide-mouth opening, I found this sweet gem at a local produce market out by the highway in Richmond. The reason why I quote the "soda-pop" when describing this beverage is because MASH doesn't describe itself as a "soda pop", but more of a "carbonated water-drink". I'll let you read the informative, yet honest, label the company describes its product...
It comes in 4 flavours: Grapefruit Citrus Zing, Lemon Peel Ginger Root, Pommegranate Blueberry, and Ripe Mango Blood Orange. I opted for the Lemon Peel Ginger Root flavour (which is essentially ginger ale) and man was it delicious. Maybe I'm overhyping it because I was really thirsty at that point, but it was truely unlike any other carbonated drink I tried. It doesn't leave your teeth gritty from the sugar, it's not overly sweet, and the carbonation is just right.
If you're a soda-pop/carbonated water enthusiast, or just plain thirsty for a non-massed produced bubbly drink, I recommend you give this Australian beverage brand a shot (if you're ever so lucky to find it somewhere, as it appears to be a rarity in grocery store and deli shop fridges).
