Childhood obsession meets adult obsession. I must have this.

This & That But Mainly Hockey
The meeting went well last night. They all think I am a genius – just goes to show how easily people can be fooled.
This morning I checked the sport section of The Age and what do I find on page 4, upper left corner? A picture of Tod Bertuzzi and a one paragraph write up of my Canucks win over The Rangers. To live in a city of four million people that boasts just two dilapidated ice rinks and find a story on hockey, with a picture, and on my team was a great surprise. Good start to a week.
To keep the Canadian thing going I heard from Jen last night – my Vancouver friend. It was she who started my whole hockey craze when I went to visit way back in December 1999. I hadn’t heard from her in ages so this message was a welcome bolt from the blue.
Rob’s A Legend
Rob (Rae’s brother) spent all of yesterday afternoon in sweltering heat ripping the stereo out of her car and swapping it with mine. Why? Read Rae’s blog – she’ll no doubt be telling all tomorrow.
Mean time I have a cool stereo at last. Next project – speakers that don’t come from a transistor radio so I can hear it properly.
Too Dam Hot
It’s really too hot to do anything. I know, it’s only low 30’s but I’ll take any excuse to call a lazy weekend. I have been working on the new Melbourne Ice site (if you promise not to tell anyone you can see the first half of a bit of a page here) and listening to the Canucks play the Rangers live from Vancouver. There’s a meeting tonight to discuss the site – I’d forgotten about the whole volunteer thing and its oddly timed meetings. Sunday 8.00pm is not a normal time for me to be venturing out to discuss a site.
And This Is What You Get
The Ceremony today (see post) has come and gone.
10 years service and I get a pin, shake of the hand from the CEO and a ribbon sandwich. It’s all down hill from here.
Doggies Fans?
If you read my blog semi-regularly you should know I’m a Tiger’s fan so what comes next may sound a little funny.
If you’re a Doggies supporter please buy a membership. Your team is in trouble – it needs you.
