Continuing my tradition of avoiding tech topics, this one is too good to pass up. Today, in a heated game between the Caps and Penguins. Nicklas Backstrom scored what amounted to the game winner for Pittsburgh. There’s only one problem, he plays for Washington. The story is here but better video is below. It wouldn’t be as funny if he didn’t look so determined to score! Love the announcers reaction too…

Very odd coincidence today…
I’d be surprised if this happened to anyone else. Let me fill in the backstory and then you can look at the image. After watching a few westerns lately, I became somewhat intereseted in learning about the Civil War (being that they always mention “the war” in westerns, anyway). After exhausting wikipedia, I began looking for a documentary DVD. As it turns out, there is one documentary highly regarded as the best. It’s the Ken Burns Civil War documentary. I bought this and encoded it for my ipod last week.
Setup 2 - I happen to be a fan of the Adult Swim show Metalocalypse. If you like metal and like to laugh, i highly recommend it. I still haven’t finished watching season one, have just a few episodes left.
Now, I watch videos during my commute, so today went something like this: On the way in, I watched Episode 1 of the Ken Burns Civil War Documentary. Then, on my way home I watched the Religionklok episode of Metalocalypse in which Skwisgaar presents Murderface with the very same DVD as a get well present.
Yeah, I pretty much fell out of my seat. See screenshot. I know this has nothing to do with Tech, deal with it, it’s my only blog.
