GORDON WINS GORDON WINS GORDON WINS

I didn't know if I would get to say this again this year but he did it!Nice to win once and a while isn't it? Sure the Broncos lost yesterday and the Red Sox are gone but hey what are you gonna do?

Survived Gord's stag party Saturday night. It was noted that I paced myself. Yeah me! Am I getting wiser, older, or just boring? Anyway, it was nice to have a guy's night. I hope Gord gets good use of his new peter pump, from the look of the teeny tiny condoms he got he'll need it! LOL

Could it be the end of DJ Robbie Mac???

Long Monday. Funny how they follow long Sundays after late Saturday nights! We covered Cape Breton on the weekend almost literally. We drove to Fourchu on Friday night and went to Sydney Saturday morning to visit Nannie. Zoom zoom zoom off to Cheticamp for Oger's wedding. When we got the resort www.islandsunset.com we realized the weather was going to get bad. Winds of 130 km/h! The wedding itself went off okay, then the rain came, the reception didn't start till 7 leaving a 3 hour delay with nothing to do but enjoy the company and a few beers. The dance got rolling around 10:30 and I was the entertainment. Sixteen years I've been "spinning tunes", what started harmlessly enough as a favor to a friend to play tapes at a wedding took me to a lot of places in front of a lot of faces. My early 20s were a blur of weekends playing bars and halls. Had I done it right I could still do it today but there comes a point when night and day get mixed up and you become a creature of the night. Don't get me wrong I had a great time and met lots of great people. But each night I went off to a gig I left folks behind. Each night I did a favor for a friend and did a gig someone had to go to stuff without me. Add the travel I do thru the week and I think it's time to hang it up. Literally hundreds of thousands of folks and I lost track of how many free beers it's the end of the Mac. What was the last tune? "Barrett's Privateers" and rightfully so and for some damn reason I could not find "The Gambler"

RIP DJ Robbie Mac
Don't worry I will always be an entertainer and man of the people.

ANYONE BUT THE YANKEES!!!

That's about what I think of that thank you very much Mr. Cash. The Sox are gone. World Champs no more. Time to clean out the clubhouse. Half the fan of being a Sox fan is being disgruntled. To add to these pleasure I had my big toenail surgicallyremoved yesterday. That's a great way to spend a long weekend now isn't it? Foot up and disgruntled. Grover brought me over the Sopranos season 1 so that will help with my vocabulary. Turkey tomorrow in the hub town and here on Monday. Gobble gobble and all that...

WE BELIEVE



So, it's playoff time and the Sox got smoked last night. I won't even mention the score. We set up a shrine here at the office last week. The sign say "We believe in Bob and Bob believes in the Sox". Bob (Marley) lives in my office usually and currently has a starring role in the shrine. Honestly, after last year I'm good for a few years without a win. Speaking of winless the ball tournament last weekend didn't go so well.
