More fun with my “Shadow Hearts” video game - last night this character was relating the legend of an ancient curse and had this to say: “When Li Li opened the door that day...she saw her father...a drowned corpse...back from the dead…he was in a terrible state.” As opposed to dead in a pleasant state, I suppose. Aren’t most zombies in a terrible state, by virtue of their being zombies? Well, anyway, it struck me as very funny and I had a big laugh over it.

I needed a big laugh, too, because of last night’s hockey game. My beloved Blues were playing the Stinking ‘Lanche, and I was worried. Earlier in the week, Blues management fired Coach Q, which I think was a big mistake. I understand that management was getting frustrated with making the playoffs the last 25 years but never being quite good enough to bring home Lord Stanley’s Cup; however, I think Joel Quenneville is a great coach and that this is a decision they’ll come to regret. Anyway, the game ended in a 2-all tie in overtime. If Milan Hejduk doesn’t quit scoring on us, I’m going to add him to my Most Hated Players List, which I am sure really worries him a lot. To make matters worse, the Lightning beat the Leafs 4 - 3. I was not pleased.

I must go now to work on my asset depreciation schedules, which is great fun and one of the most compelling reasons to be an accountant. Yes, that was sarcasm.
