Nice! Wish I still had the old Scorpion and Trailmaker somewhere. I was in Whistler most of February and the visitor centre there had some great old rides on display. None looked as sweet as yours!

Whistler?  Did you need a snowmobile or a jet-ski?

Way to go, Fins.

We took home some hardware, too!  Got our AKC Rally Obedience Novice title.



(I'd better make this next post a doozy!)

Looks like he has you well trained.

When KS gets a place with some land this is the dog KS wants.

Whistler wasn't bad. It was those poor saps down south at Cypress Mt. who got stuck in the soggy hay bales. Actually skied a couple of days in powder that was very unNW-like.

Two real disappointments: 1) hot tub repairman was seen arriving when we were checking out. 2) a country that used to be so reliable for good brew is now pretty average. Growth in regionals/micros here has left our northern neighbors a bit behind.

I'm left wondering what you were doing in the heated bacteria frap that gummed up the system.

A second thought: what job could fill you with more foreboding than a hottub repair guy at a ski resort?

[repete]

Indeed. I did not get a chance to foul that stew. When we checked in the first week of Feb., they were "just about to get to it." When I checked out on the 28th, repair guy arrived. Would have preferred a sauna anyway ...

What you guys need is a Hot Tub Time Machine:

Ignore the crashing sound, it's just civilization crumbling.  How does something like this get financed?

Very nice - this from the country of the cultural colony of Mad Max

[OzJohnnie]

How did that or any other Australian movie, including block-busters like Australia and Shine get financed?  By the tax payer of course.  Sigh.

How about this classic?  Young Einstein, starring Yahoo Serious.  Courtesy of a 46.5% marginal tax rate.

Yahoo Serious deserved an Oscar!!   ................Seriously.

Minnesota ahead of Purdue at the half - 37 to ELEVEN!!

When's the last time a top ten team was held to eleven points in a half?

Didn't Purdue lose their top player to injury recently?  I think their ranking is inflated based on their current lineup.

The excitement of the UofM making the NCAA tourney has driven everyone away?  A first game loss is on the way, I'm afraid.

bennie,
Just for your viewing. I saw it as it happened so can't watch again.
