Ken and Jess, talking about where they are registering for their wedding presents...

Jess: We're going to register at the Bay, because they have lots of different stuff.
Ken: The Bay? I don't wanna register there, all we'll end up with is a million towel sets and some plates. That's not good for me. What's in it for Ken?
Jess: Well what do you want to get then?
Ken: A chainsaw.

That was just about the most unexpected answer Ken could've given. It was one of those you-have-to-be-there moments, also you've gotta know Ken. But my god was that funny.

UPDATE: I have just seen highlights of possible the greatest hockey game ever played. Philadelphia Flyers vs. the Ottawa Senators. The Flyers were out for revenge after a cheapshot by the Sen's Martin Havlat the last time the teams played. There were goalie fights. Fights right off of faceoffs. Two line brawls. Fights by non-fighter types like Mark Recchi, Jason Spezza, Brian Smolinski. Coaches sending guys out with orders to fight. A league record 419 penalty minutes. 21 fighting majors. 20 Game Misconducts.

A Classic.

And as an aside, after seeing Brashear's on ice actions and then his post-game interview, he's still the biggest prick in the NHL. Thats to be expected though coming from a guy who, while playing for the Canucks, once reportedly took a shit in a reporter's briefcase. It was also nice to see the Senators, never noted for their toughness, stick up for themselves well against the always tough Broadstreet Bullies, and in fact, seemed to win most of the fights.

I hope they play in the playoffs.
