Sharks lose

The San Jose Sharks lost against Detroit, 2 – 4.  I was listening to the game on their internet radio broadcast and something about the connection made it come through slightly garbled.  Not a lot, just enough to make me feel like I was losing my mind just a little bit.  I knew they were speaking English and yet sometimes I couldn’t quite turn those sounds into concepts and syntax and familiar speaking patterns.

One of the announcers has a strong Canadian accent and I laugh every time he says out or about or house.  “He left aboot an hour ago, he said he was oot for some errands and would return to the hoose in an hoor or so.”  Ha ha!  Canadians.
