soccer report

Blasters played their best game in my experience; defensively, they were so well organized that it gave me the chance to have a really good game in goal.  However, Gang Green shut us out, 8-0.  They scored some high quality goals to go with the regular goals and the lucky goals.

The bad news was that the game got ugly again, thanks to the lame-ass ref who, in his last appearance in one of our games, also let the game get ugly.  The next game we get with that ref, i'm pulling the other team aside and let them know that this guy sucks and ask them to keep it cool and so will we.  I really hate it when games get ugly.

you're telling me wiccans DON'T hand out candy on samhain?

A Washington state school district is canceling its annual Halloween celebration, and the explanation has some parents baffled.

[...]

The district said Halloween celebrations and children dressed in Halloween costumes might be offensive to real witches.

"Witches with pointy noses and things like that are not respective symbols of the Wiccan religion and so we want to be respectful of that," Hansen said.

I can't wait for the response from the Wiccan Anti-Defamation League.

I give you Tokyo Breakfast.  Nobody seemed to know where this came from when it first appeared on the Net a couple of years ago; turns out it was written and filmed by a couple of guys who used to do stuff for MTV (who are now, according to Cult of the Dead Cow, working with Spike Jonze) and submitted it to the 2001 Ohio Independent Film Festival & Market.
