KHEL 666 Sports Spotlight: Mikka Kiptrusoff

With all this heat, I'm ready for things to be cooler. So, how about some hockey? Mikka Kiprusoff retired last year, but we can still remember great plays like this one. The Finns have sure given hockey some great players!

Celesty: Dark Emotions

Where are you hiding, I'm searching for you.
Are you so scared that you don't know what to do?
Say what you want I believe it's nothing new.
No tears to shed it's just the game between us two.
Invitation inside of these walls.
Revelations of destiny calls.
Your endless screams I still hear them in dreams.
And I know when your power will fall.
Why don't I fear all these games what you play?
Maybe it's time to feed the words of the day.
Believe what you want but understand what you say.
I've tried to teach you but why won't you obey.
Like looking through thin ice in the light.
I'm blinded and cold, awaiting dark emotions untold.
These hands foretell my destiny, they say, help saving this world beckons a new brighter day.
Follow these rules and this world will be free.
You still believe this still holding your key.
Say what you want I believe it's nothing new.
No tears to shed it's just the game between us two.

Insomnium Playlist

A playlist from the great Finnish melodic death metal band Insomnium.

Insomnium: Weighed Down With Sorrow

HIM Playlist

You may not have asked for it, but you've got it, and you won't be sorry: A playlist of HIM tunes!

And now, a little lecture regarding Ville Valo's smoking addiction. He does have a wonderful voice, and I'm certainly not trying to imply that smoking in any way makes a person defective. However, when I trained as an EMT and saw the horrible consequences of diseases such as emphysema and lung cancer, I realized just how destructive smoking is. He has asthma as well. 

I hope one day he is able to stop smoking for good. Best this wonderful voice should be around for several generations to enjoy.

 I smoked for 20 years, I know it's hard to quit. It's even harder to stay quit if a person has a true addiction to nicotine.

HIM: Funeral of Hearts Live

Watch this amazingly talented band show what they've got. No auto-tune, just talent. Ville Valo handles an idiot in the crowd who chucks a bottle at the band with humor and class.

It's a shame about Ville's addiction and health issues. He's an incredible talent, but obviously something of a tortured soul.

HIM Playlist

Here's a playlist from HIM to get me in the mood to start my NaNoWriMo pursuit.

Damn, Ville Valo is fine!

Don't tell anyone I was that shallow.
