FUNNY - HA! HA! YUK! YUK!

Two antennas meet on a roof, fall in love and get married.The ceremony wasn't much, but the reception was excellent.

Ice-Fishing

Picture of my nephew, Brody, ice-fishing on Triangle Lake last week. Brody and his Poppy (my father) caught 19 speckle trout on this day - a couple of them were wicked!

Champion

Congrats to my nephew, Brody Buffett, in capturing the Alvin Parrill Memorial Tournament this weekend. They went undefeated all weekend and won the championship game today 6-4.
This was the 3rd tournament he has played in this season and is 3 for 3. He also won The Bill Chapman Tourney and The Lake Melville Attack Tournament in Goosebay.
He will be travelling with the Atom "A" All-Stars next month to compete in the provincal championships.

AHL Player of the Week

Congrats to local boy, Dan LaCosta, on being named the AHL player of the week ending Feb.4th.
LaCosta plays for The Syracuse Crunch and posted back to back shutouts on Feb 2nd and Feb 3rd.
He defeated Springfield 5-0 and followed it up with a 6-0 win over Rochester.

Way to go Daniel you made your home town proud!

I predict that he will be in the NHL in 2 years and will eventually end up with the Bruins where he will lead them to The Stanley Cup (It's my site and I'm allowed to dream).

Speckle Trout

10 Speckle Trout caught ice-fishing at Secret Speckle Lake on Tuesday. Ate 7 for supper on Wednesday nite and had the remaining 3 for breakfast on Thursday morning - delicious!!!!

Brody's New Hockey Jacket

Good Luck this weekend Brody - play your best and have fun.

Very Funny Knock Knock Joke!

Knock, knock

Who's there?

You ever hear the joke about the broken pencil?

You ever hear the joke about the broken pencil who?

Nevermind, it's pointless.

Winter Sucks!!!

With the temperatures being below -40 for the last month I am cold.

I miss summer - the pic is of myself and Blair on the tee box for hole #16 at The Tamarack Golf Course.

6 more months until golf and fairly warm weather - winter go away!!!

This would be a funny joke if it wasn't true - just ask anyone who was ever married!

Q: Why do they call it P.M.S.???

A: Because the term "Mad Cow Disease" was already taken.

XFL - If anybody remembers the XFL watch this. Vince is funny!!!

Colts Win! Colts Win!

Congrats to The Indianapolis Colts who beat the Chicago Bears 29-17 in Sunday Night's Super bowl XLI.

Lead by their fearless leader and perhaps one of the top 5 QB's of all time, Peyton Manning (game MVP) silenced the critics who continuely said that he would never win "The Big One".

The Bears put up a great effort but in the end were unable to compete with their superior opponents.

* Just a note to remind people that that on Nov. 19th "The Boys" embarrassed the new champs 21 -14. "The Greek" predicts that Dallas will defeat Cincinnati next season in Super Bowl XLII. Go Cowboys!!!

Irvin Is In

It was announced Saturday that the greatest wide reciever in history will be going into the Pro Football Hall of Fame this year.
Micheal Irvin was not only a great player but he was also one the greatest individuals off the field as well. The league today could use a few more players built in the mold of this great man.

Congrats. Micheal it was well deserved!!

Superbowl Poll

The results are in for The Superbowl Poll that I decided to to run with a few people I know. There were 16 people that responded and the winner is the same as the latest Vegas Line:

Indy - 9 votes to win
Bears - 6 votes to win
Edmonton Eskimoes - 1 vote (poor Rolo).

* Edit - late vote for Bears by Todd Record gives them 7.

I will provide a few of the reasons and comments I recieved in doing this poll"

- JJ, "Bears will win - how can I go against a team that once had William "The Fridge" Perry on it. You do know that I was his role model right?"

- Ev Walsh, "Defense wins Superbowls .... Chicago has the better defense ... Final score Indy 27 -- Chicago 10"

- Tony Walsh, "Bears will win ... b/c Payton can't win the BIG ONE"

- Eddy Spagetti, "Grossman sucks ... AFC is better ... Bears win 24 - 21"

- Tricky Dick, "Colts will win handily"

- Todd, "Bears will win. I was late voting b/c I wanted to see who "The Greek" took. I had to go with "The Greek" b/c he is the best"!!!

- Special thanks to Kerry Hartley in participating. It has been a couple of years since I heard from her and she included a provocative picture of herself for my eyes only.
However, she is so certain that the Bears will win that she said, "Jimmy the Colts do not have a chance in hell of winning. I am so certain that The Bears will win that if they don't I am giving you permission to post the pic I sent you on your blog".

- Finally, Jimmy "the greek", "I am picking The Bears b/c all the pressure is on Manning. Manning has to be great for them to win. On the other hand Grossman doesn't have to be great for The Bears to win; all he has to do is be average and not make to many mistakes. I think that Grossman will be average and Manning will choke it up (it is a big game and the pressure is on - we know his history) so this battle of the QB's goes to Rex and Bears win 45 - 13!!!"
