And that’s thanks to the one-stop newsletter they put out – every Friday by the look of it. I have to say, that makes me feel a little better. And the layout ain’t too shabby.
BONUS: Funny link I found through Fark.com: a list of the top 5 hottest female hockey players in the collegiate ranks. Tell me if you notice something of a theme among the players (psst….look at their hair). And the name of the site on which it’s posted, The Wicked Wrister….well, let’s just say that sounds different to hockey fans than it might to the layman.
Me being me, I ambled down to the comments where I noticed some dissent as to who belongs in the Top 5. So, armed with Google, and the names of the colleges, I thought I’d check out the unhonored competition. First was Emily Kranz, who plays for the University of Wisconsin. The only image I found under that name wasn’t so flattering and, for all I know, that’s not even our Emily. Wanting another look, I tried to find Ms. Franz on the U of Wiscahnsin women’s hockey site, but didn’t find so much as her name…and I checked down to the B-team and C-team.
Figuring Wiscahnsin Hockey wasn’t working, I thought I’d take my chances with finding Jenna Cowan from the University of Maine. That went a little better – and, again, do note the hair color…the theme persists.
Totally side-tracked by now, I thought, “Hmm…what would happen if you typed some random person’s name into a Google image search with the filters off?” Didn’t think it would take long to hit something NSFW…a suspicion that only seemed more plausible when Jenna Jameson’s name cropped up early in the search. To my surprise, it took till the sixth page…and it wasn’t Jenna Jameson.
Anyway, that’s some dumb stuff I learned yesterday. And now you know it too.
