Star Wars


Great show last night. Star Wars in concert. A full symphony orchestra playing Star Wars music while scenes from the movies played on a 3 story screen. The host of the evening was Anthony Daniels, the guy who played C3PO in the series.


It was fun looking around the crowd. Lots of kids. Lots of people in costume. Lots of guys like that comic book dude from the Simpsons.

Check out the picture. This is our family dog "Boomer". Here are some of the things I've learned from him.

  • You get a lot more by wagging your tail then showing your teeth.
  • When ever you can, have a nice little nap.
  • Play hard.
  • When you see someone you love it's alright to get a little excited.
  • Loyalty is a noble thing.
  • Eat like you're going to "the chair".
  • Every once and a while it's OK to chase your tail. It's pointless. But it's fun.
  • If there is something you really want, dig for it. Don't stop until you get it, or you get locked in your kennel. Either way, you didn't cheat yourself.
Oh yeah. Don't pee the floor. It really @$!*'s Dad off.

Sorry seems to be the hardest word.


This is a great article. It speaks to honesty and no spin. Give it a read and listen to the audio embedded in it. Thanks to Darren Robson for posting on Facebook. http://tiny.cc/7nb0i

In case you're sick and tired of hockey....


A release this morning...

Canadians will be b-u-z-z-i-n-g with excitement this week as TSN has coverage of the prestigious SCRIPPS NATIONAL SPELLING BEE on Friday, June 4. Spelling gets underway at 2 p.m. ET on TSN with Early Round coverage, followed by live coverage of the final round at 8 p.m. ET. SPORTSCENTRE will also feature the Top 10 Spelling Bee moments.

Certainly TSN has a core audience. I wonder what they will think of a spelling bee on the network they go to for hockey highlights? "Looking for the Jays score? Sorry....we've got the Spelling Bee on".

Can wait for those Top 10 Spelling Bee Moments.
