Tuesday Links - Back To Your Day Job

Sorry I couldn't do links yesterday. The fiance' and I took a two-day trip to northwestern Montana, went snowshoeing through a small bit of Glacier National Park (which is fucking beautiful and if you've ever thought of going there, do it), ventured over to Whitefish for food and drink (and took this sweet picture from the second floor of Great Northern Brewing Company) and spent Sunday night in (what ended up being) a wi-fi-less (but warm, and very nice!) cabin. It was good therapy. And it's a great thing J-Mill is better at this links thing than I am (and that's no bullshit).

But anyway . . . the National Hockey League returns today. Technically.

BLUES NEWS:

OTHER SHIT:

• Harold Ramis was part of a lot of the movies I found to be great and hilarious during my formative years. And while he was a Chicago guy, he spent a few of his formative years on the campus of Washington University in St. Louis. Yesterday, he passed at the age of 69. RIP, sir. And thank you. [CNN]
• These two people are dicks. [Deadspin]
• So if you get tattoos on your dick and send them to someone unsuspectingly, you're cool. [Y! / Reuters]

A couple Harold Ramis videos. First, from what might have been his own personal crowning achievement . . . Stripes. A classic:

And who can forget this scene from Ghostbusters?
