Senior Dis night in St. Joe the entire mob was shouting "F&$# Bertuzzi! F&$# Bertuzzi!" in the street outside the La, as the hometown ice hockey team had just finished off Vancouver the night before. THAT was fun.

Funny, I don't remember that

How much of that night DO you remember?

Ritz72...Jeff could probably kick both our @$$es if we let him...thanks again for carrying me home from the fence line...I may have provided good fertilizer if not for you! 
Redtooth...Give me a hint..my memory is going!  I remeber my TD recovery, but don't recall who I fought off under the heap to acheive the glory!  I have to dust off some old game film and see if I can figure it out...I am embarrassed I don't remember!

BDB...need to get the kids on the ice together sometime...like the idea of a visit in January for an SJU-Stout hockey game! 

Carry on gentlemen!

In my professional (nearly professional, will be professional in 7months 2 weeks), no one should have any recollection of senior Dis night in St Joe!

We weren't technically allowed to have one due to the actions of Mr Shoes' and Duffman's class, but we created our own which resulted in half the guys leaving Sal's after Piano man with trousers still at half mast. Nothing funnier than watching a drunk senior try to explain to a cop why his pants are around his ankles and why this shouldn't be a problem for the cop.

You've never Piano Manned until your Johnnie buddy has his wedding reception at the Science Museum and you need to explain to a police officer why you felt it was reasonable to take your pants off in a museum.

Closed Circuit to BlueDevil Bob: TDT is sporting a stylish pink Bobby Jones polo today (for reference during Devils/Panthers game)...

Something for the players to aim at?   

Missed me by 2 rows.  You can't make this stuff up fellas.

My buddy who works for the Panthers got me great seats directly behind the penalty boxes in row 3, this lady
was pregnant and got hit square in the face with a flying puck (no net as we were at the Red Line/Center Ice).  She was bleeding all over the place and it was a little scary.

Great vantage point to see David Clarkson (NJ) and Bryan Allen (FL) yap at each other after their fisticuffs in the 3rd period.  Oh and all the fake b00bies are really a gift from God.  TDT may or may not have fallen in love with 17 of the Ice Dancers

Speaking of drunk...

One of the best bits of Aussie culture is Friday afternoon at the pub.  Dropped $40 betting on the doggies with me mates, but it was good fun (we were up $250 total at one point... really).  A big chicken parmigiana at Palmerston's (best chicken parma in Oz) and a large number of pots (glasses of beer).

I've got presentations at two conferences next week and about an hour left to finish them off.  It took me about 20 minutes to type this post with all the back-spacing for typos.  Not looking good...

From Shooter's column this morning: 

From a spectator at St. John's 30-29 victory over St. Olaf in Collegeville last Saturday: "If there's a better college football setting than Clemens Stadium, it must be in heaven."

OzJohnny93, how long are you going to be in Australia? Hopefully I will be there sometime next spring to see my daughter, who will be spending a semester there through a study abroad program at the University of Colorado-Boulder. I may need some advice on all the hot spots to frequent.

Looks like fins won't have to travel so far this hunting season.

Last sentence from the article:  "The animal ran off into a neighborhood and has not been seen since."

I think Fins was up late.   

Elk meat for the UST pre-game?

I'm here until the end of days.  I've married an Aussie and am slowing going native.  The kids put on an American accent to tease me.  Will your daughter be in Melbourne or Sydney? Or one of the other capital cities?

I don't know of any Johnnies in Sydney, but there must be a few (there is one Tommie I've come across up there, but he sucks).  We've got four Johnnies here in Melbourne that email once in a while.  One of them I see everyday (that I'm in town anyway).  Incredibly, he works in the same office I do in Melbourne.  A rather sickly cornerback from the 2003 championship team showed up one day about 18 months ago (sickly may be a harsh description, he was only hospitalized the night before the big game).  Talk about small worlds.

Anyway, I would love to make some recommendations for your tour, or even be a guide for a night or two.  Just send a note.  If it's in the off-season and I'm not posting send a note to my profile address.  I'm always using that account.

I guess I made that bit to easy... 

He's a nice guy, although he recently skipped on my 40th.  Claimed to be sick... again.  It was a pretty good night, too.  At least the first two thirds of the night were.  And I have it from reliable sources that I enjoyed the last third as well.

Any chance you could send this poor Gustie grad some Carleton Crown Lager?  I spent J-Term 2003 in Wollongong and Sydney and fell in love with that beer.

A reminder to all those attending the GAC-SJU game this SAturday.  We will be meeting at Patrick's on Third at 11am sharp.  Be there or be TDT.

Sure, why not?  I'll ship you a six-pack.  I'm not sure if it will make it, but we can give it a go.  PM me an address.

I figure if the Sydney-siders let you on to some good Melbourne suds, instead of that dredge from the piss-trough that they "brew", you should be rewarded.

[DuffMan]

Looks like it should be a great day for a game in Saint Peter tomorrow!
