But I'll do it anyway..

Right: I'm doing This Month-Long Novel Thing and it starts in just over an hour.. I did it last year and did just fine.. but this year, due to work changes and general mucking about (not to mention spending hours on SCH) I'm short of ideas.. I mean total writer's block.. nothing is suggesting itself to me as inspiration so I'll turn it over to you guys.. Hockey -Related or not, I don't really mind.. no idea too insane to be considered (aside from an idea that has a hulking Engineering Graduate somehow (non) skate his way onto a Cup Contending Team.. I'm not aiming at Absurdist Post-Modernism here).. so thanks for any suggestions and thanks to the Mods if they let me live a little longer..
