Kicks Just Seem To Get Harder To Find

It has been about a month since my last blog. To be perfectly honest I have lost interest in my blog. I am farely confident that no one really cares what I have to say, I can't blame them, I don't even care about my opinions.

I developed another infection in my incision. This one was not as severe as the other, but I did have to go to the ER for three days straight every eight hours to get IV antibiotics. I have been on oral antibiotics for the past week and I am feeling good. Before the infection struck I was feeling really good and getting ready to get my life back on course, but now I am back to taking meds and incision leakage. Life Sucks.

This could be my last blog.

I Only Have Eyes For You

Its been a while blog. I've missed you.


Nicole says that now that I am feeling better that I should be blogging, but it is hard to blog when your life for the past two months has been trying to recover from having a 15 inch scar carved into your abdomen. Truth be told the incision has not completely healed yet, but I do feel better (still get tired easily).

I am mobile now though, this meaning that I am driving and doing a minimal amount of socializing outside of the confines of my home, mostly with my stepbrother who is slowly recovering from a herniated disc in his back.

I am also slowly starting my partying ways again. Enough said.

I don't have any really good stories to tell from recent days in my life. I do have a lot of good stories regarding my surgery and the long recovery process. I will not be writing these stories on the blog, but rather I will tell them in my upcoming book Hernia: The Story of One Man's stoic fight to recover from a major abdomen operation while trying to keep his integrity and honour. The book will also deal with the nasty infection I got two weeks later and the second stay in the hospital I had to endure.

One recent event I can talk about is something that happened a few days ago. So I am going to my stepbrother's condo to watch HD TV and chill, on the way to his condo I stopped to get us lunch. We decided to have some Wendy's, me being the adventerous type decided to try the new Baconator. So I order, pay, and drive to my stepbrother's condo. Upon opening my burger I discovered that the burger guy or gal at Wendy's neglected to put any bacon on my Baconator. As you all can imagine I was very upset, but not upset enough to do anything about it. It was very dissapointing I was so looking forward to tasting the sweet baconiness of the Baconator. I am now boycotting Wendy's.

Hernia

Hello everyone


For those who do not know, On May 22nd I had to have emergency surgery to repair a hernia that was in my stomach. The hernia was blocking my bowel and it was making for a few very unpleasent days before I was finally convinced to go to the hospital.

The surgery went extremely well and I am back home recovering.

I have many stories to tell surrounding the events of the surgery and I will publish them at a later date, but for now my focus is on getting better.

Sugar High !


Hello
This was my facebook photo for a while, for some reason I love this picture. I took it in a hostel room in Wellington New Zealand, my back was really bothering me and I had no energy to explore the city



For those of you who do not know my sister is getting married in just under two weeks and as part of the wedding, guests are being given a little box of choclates at the reception. So a couple of days ago members of my family and I had the thankless job of tasting various kinds of choclate. It was rough having so many different choclate options to taste and choose from, but eventually we settled on some delicious choclate options. I am very happy that this is a wedding I do not have to MC. Don't get me wrong I enjoyed being the MC at my cousins wedding, but I get really nervous when I have to do public speaking.

My only responsibility for this wedding is some ushering for the ceremony, which I am doing with my brother Paul, should be painless. After that it is off to the reception where there is an open bar and as you all know, that means awesome drunk Chris will be making an appearance.


The Red Wing won their last game yesterday quite handily and hopefully they can finish that series tomorrow. The Raptors unfortunately lost on Friday, they had a great season and a great future a head. Luckily the Golden State Warriors won and I will be cheering for them for the rest of the playoffs.


Facebook continues to inject it's delcious addictive qualities into my system. I can't control myself

We Bring It On And On




As promised another blog
These pictures are all from New Zealand.
There is the rocky ocean view from Wellington, My Maori brothers who I met at a rugby game, and a view of Auckland from a Ferry



Thankfully the Red Wings squeezed out a victory last night in overtime. When they were down 2-0 I was convinced that they were done, but like a great team they proved me wrong.


The Raptors also one their last game and they live to play another day. That day is Friday and hopefully they can win in New Jersey. Golden State blew a chance to send Dallas packing the other day, but they have another chance tonight at home.


On Saturday I was having drinks with Dave, Twyla, and Jeff at O'Shea's and I looked up and made eye contact with a dude who was walking by. We looked at each other and we both recognized each other. He came over to our table and said "didn't I meet you in Munich" and sure enough he did. It was a bit crazy running into someone who I met in Germany. I remembered later that he was a geologist and his company does a lot of work in Northern Saskatchewan and their office is in Saskatoon. It was a bit crazy, my mind was blown.

Now We Sip Champagne When We Thirsty

It has a been a week and half since I blogged. I don't know if I am losing the passion I once had for blogging or whether my life is so boring right now that I have nothing good to write about. I went back and looked at my blog from last year and I realized that I use to put a lot more effort into writing this thing. I am going to try and get back to the high quality of blogging that I know I can achieve.

I would also llike to thank ODB for encouraging me to blog more last night.

This is the best time of the year if you are a sports fan. NBA and NHL playoffs are in full effect.

The Raptors have been very dissapointing the last two games, hopefully they can rebound tonight and extend their series. Despite the lack of success by the Raptors I am still finding joy in the NBA playoffs because of the Golden State Warriors. They have a chance to knock off one of the best teams in NBA history tonight when they play the Dallas Mavericks. If Golden State wins it will be the biggest playoff upset ever in the NBA.

My Red Wings lost last night in a tight game against San Jose. I am not worried because I think this series is going to go seven games and hopefully the Wings can pull it out in the end.

My continuing obsession with Facebook is still very strong.

I am currently reading a book called American Dynasty. It is all about the Bush family and their shady doings throughout American histroy. Very interesting if you are a Poli-Sci nerd like myself.

I promise I will blog again by Thursday

Satan Is My Lady

Hello friends.


I havn't blogged for a week. The reason behind this is that I have become hooked on the online high school reunion that is Facebook. Damn you Anna Bond for getting me hooked.


Kudos to Dave for his increase in blogging lately.


It sounds like Jeff's Sim's versions of us is just like the real versions of us. You know me flirting with Kim, Jeff getting jealous.


I'm not worried about the Redwings loss to Calgary on Tuesday. They'll bounce back and beat Calgary tonight. I am officially getting destroyed in the MathC30 hockey pool. Judging by the emails that have been sent this pool is getting a bit personal. I love it. I'm going to send a nasty email to JB to keep the bad blood flowing.

Now I'm Titanic, Iceberg's My Name


I'm bored and sitting at my computer so I have decided to blog. I really have nothing to say or report.


I shaved my beard today.


I found out yesteday that my neice loves it when I pretend to get angry and yell at people. She has a toy phone that rings and every time it would ring I would pick it up and pretend that someone was on the other line and I would yell at them and tell them to stop calling me. I have never seen her giggle for so long.



The picture is of the area where M&D had their ceremony. Very Nice

I can't think of anything else to type.

Back in the blogosphere


Sorry for the lack of blogging lately. To make this up to all of you I have put up some awesome pictures from Hawaii, Australia, and New Zealand up for you.


It has been over a week since I have been home and I have enjoyed my time back. I can't really make a decision on what I am doing next until I get an idea of when my hernia surgery is going to be. I meet with my surgeon in 2 weeks and hopefully that will help clear up the fog surrounding my future.


The pictures are of:

Running Back To Saskatoon

Greetings from home.


Well I survived the marathon travelling day and I have made it home safe and sound.


My flights wern't actually that bad. I ended up having an emergeny row all to myself from Sydney all the way to Vancouver, so I got to stretch out and have lots of leg room. I watched 3 movies. 2 were really bad, those being A Good Year starring Russell Crowe and The Guardian starring Kevin Costener and Kutcher. The third was Night At The Museum which was pretty good. I am going to have to see it again, as you all know seeing a movie on a plane is not the best way to expereince a film. I also watched a Looney Tunes cartoon involving Speedy Gonzalez and Sylvester the Cat which I found hilarious.

The only real downside of the travelling was about 2 hours into my first flight my Ipod completely froze and I had no clue why or how to fix it. My first theory was that an electro-magnetic pulse had been set off some where over the Pacific and my Ipod was the only thing effected. I was very bitter that I did not have music for the trip, as I have said to many people I would not have made it through Europe without my Ipod.
Upon arriving home I learned that I just had to reset it which took about six seconds.

Now that I am home I have no clue what I am doing with my life. A decision will be made soon, keep checking the blog for more details.

We Have The Sexy Time

Well the Honeymoon is over, well at least the part with me. I left Mike and Deanna last night. The three of us had a rockin' good time this past 6 days.

I flew into Auckland last night and spent the night in the Auckland airport. Those 8 hours went by slowly. I did manage to get some sleep, but I would wake up every half hour or so and realize I was in an airport. I also had some crazy dreams

New Zealand is a lot of fun. I highly recommend you all go. We spent the the past couple of days in the capital of Wellington. This is also the home of Peter Jackson and the filming location for many of the scenes in The Lord of The Rings.

Deanna and Myself's nerd factors have gone up drastically since yesterday when we took a Lord of The Rings tour. It was very informative and interesting. It was also a good way to see a lot of the countryside. It did however start to rain heavily during the tour which completely ruined Rivendell for me. Mike was going to come, but he had a tummy ache(I wish you could type sarcasm). Anyways I hope you guys enjoy the rest of your trip. Even though it will totally suck with out me.

In Under 48 hours I will be beginning the long process of getting home. I have been dreading this day. Not the coming home part, but rather the travelling for like 24 hours. 18 hours to Vancouver, 5 hour layover in Vancouver, and 3 hours from Vancouver to Saskatoon, brutal.

The next blog will be from Glorious nation of Canada

see ya real soon

Beer + Rugby + An English Guy = Madness

Hello party people

So last night we went to a New Zealand rugby game at Eden Park. We decided that it would be prudent to do some pre-drinking because we figured stadium booze would be ridiculously expensive. So we drank some rum and then we went down to the hostel bar where we were entitled to a free beer and we drank the beer and because our bus wasn't there yet we had more beer.

We then hopped on the bus and went to the stadium, at the stadium we hooked up with an English chap nmaed Michael who was staying in the same dorm as me. Upon entering the stadium we discovered that beer was relatively cheap so we bought a bunch. English Michael explained the rules of rugby to us and I think we picked it up pretty quick.

The Blues(the hometown team) were playing the Lions from South Africa. I of course passionately cheared for the Blues. So much so that I lost my voice for a while today. Rugby is a fun sport to see live, lots of violence. We also met three Maori dudes who were sitting infront of us. They were good guys.

By the start of the second half I would say I was pretty drunk, so I bought more beer and we all got even more drunk. There are some good pics that I will post when I get home. The game ended and the Blues trounced the Lions in an impressive victory.

We got back to the hostel where again we were entitled to a free beer. So we decided to drink some more beers. Then English Michael decided we needed to some Jager bombs. So we did Jager bombs.

By the end of the night I was hitting on two Norwegian girls ands stumbling a bit. Mike was high fiving everyone who walked pass and Deanna was chatting up a storm with random people at the bar.

It was a pretty good night. Needless to say we are all a bit slow today and we havn't really done anything except sleep, eat and do laundry

We are off to Wellington tomorrow.

Well Shock Me Shock Me

Hey party people

Well to my surprise Mike and Deanna decided to jet off from Fiji and come to Auckland and come spend a couple extra days with yours truly. I read this on there blog yesterday, but I didn't know when they were coming, so I went about my day of exploring Auckland harbour and then I decided to go back to my room and have a power nap, as I was fading asleep I see someone burst through the door and try to slap my knee...Mike Larson. So we hung out all yesterday night and today we took a ferry to Devenport and explored over there. Tonight is the big night though, we are going to go see some New Zealand rugby action. I predict a riot(started by Mike and I ).

We also have tomorrow and most of Monday together. Monday night Mike and Deanna take an overnight bus to Wellington while I fly so we'll be seperated for like 12 hours. It's awesome to have people around who I know.

I'm home in a week.

Z-LAND

Greetings from Auckland



I got here yesterday afternoon, I found my hostel, no problem. I flew an Argentinian airline over here, everything was in Spanish I was confused, but it was cheap so who cares.

I don't think a week is going to be enough to do everything this country has to offer. There is so much stuff to do, I'm overwhelmed. One thing I am for sure doing is going to a Rugby game on Saturday. I'm going to get super drunk and rowdy.

I think I am going to go explore downtown Auckland today. There is a giant tower here, the biggest in the southern hemisphere.

Well I'm going to go fight a kiwi.


Warmest regards

My Dad Is Tougher Then Your Dad

Well my dad had knee replacement surgery today. I got a email from my sister and she told me that everything went well. Apparently Billy is in a little bit of pain because this is the first time in 30 years that his knee is actually fully straightened, the tendond arn't use to being so stretched out. During the surgery the doctors also discovered that Billy had a torn ligament from his initial knee injury 30 years ago. So my dad had been walking, golfing, curling and doing many other activities for the past 30 years with a torn ligament. 30 years ago when Billy injured his knee playing football the doctors told him it was just a strain. Upon hearing this my dad said "stupid doctors" And people wondered why I never played football. I like my knees.

The good news is that Billy will be out of the hospital by the weekend and he is suppose to rehab for 6-8 weeks, but anyone who has spent any significant amount of time with my dad knows that he is a stuborn man and as my sister says he will probably try to go back to work in 2 weeks, luckily I will be home by then and I will enforce the rules of rehab.

I don't know if I have mentioned at all in past blogs, but I'm off to New Zealand tomorrow.

Look out Kiwi's, the leader of Christifanity is coming to spread the gospel of the world's greatest unorganized religion

Beauty Is In The Eye Of The Tiger

I am back in Sydney. I am going to relax and take it easy here for a couple of days then as you all know Z-land.

My trip up the coast was a success. I checked out Byron Bay which is a very cool spot. I did not get to Australia zoo, I did a little investigating and I found out it is very erpensive to get in. And what's the point of going if I have no chance of meeting the Croc Hunter(Stupid Stingray). I am going to go check out a zoo here in Sydney tomorrow.

My flight yesterday was the most turbulent flight of my life it seemed like every 2 minutes we would hit a patch of turbulence. It was crazy. During the worst part of the turbulence "Shook Me All Night Long" by ACDC came on my Ipod, I had to laugh.

Yesterday at the Brisbane airport I was "randomly"(they were totally racially profiling me)selected to be tested for explosive material. They wave this thing that looks like a glue gun all over your body and your carry on items. No explosive material was found. I did have a nice chat with the guy administering the test. He called Canadians "the good North Americans"


That's it for today.

Sincerely

Hot As Balls!

As my title suggests Australia is as hot as balls. For those who don't know I often describes many random things as being either as hot or cold as balls. Just one of those weird things I'm known for I guess.

It is kind of hard to get motivation to do things down here because of the heat. I could go out and do some exploring, or I could stay in the air conditioned hostel or the really air conditioned mall next door.

Last night was a bit crazy. I day drank(not much, a few beers) and this made me rather tired so I decided to have an early night(10:30pm) At about 11 my 3 new roomamtes came in. They are loud, young party girls from Vancouver(Well one was actually born in Saskatoon, when she asked me where in Canada I was from and I told her Saskatoon she got very excited, and one is actually a gay guy). As I said they were loud. They had just landed in Australia and they decided to fight jetlag and go party. 5 years ago I could have fought jetlag as well. I felt like the oldest 25 year old in Australia. One of the girls came back like an hour later and passed out, while the other two very loudly got home at like 6am. They woke up around the same time I did, 11am(yes I got over 12 hours of sleep, shutup) And to no ones surprise they were still a little hammered. Testament to the fact they were still hammered was the 2 spilt beers and the stepping on and explosion of a giant bag of Doritos. I just laid in bed with a grin on my face as they drunkinly cleaned up and I realized how happy I was that I wasn't a dumb 20 year old any more.

Later friends and family, I miss you all very much and I can't wait to get home

P.S.

I don't want it to sound like I am not having a good time, because I am. Some days are just long and hot

Brisbane

Greetings from fantastic Brisbane


I rolled in here earlier today. I have spent the past 4 nights on the Gold Coast. I stayed a hostel, which was actually the house of an older couple named Anne and Kerry(It was more like a B&B). It was very nice. I basically had the basement of their house to myself. A double bed, TV, Kitchen, everything a dude needed.

The house was out in like the suburbs of the city of Coolangata, so it was kind of hard to get anywhere. I did manage to do some explorin'. I checked out some beaches, including Surfer's Paradsise. Which is this extremely tacky little town that is geared at tourists, but it was worth checking out.

Brisbane seems like a really cool city. Apparently it consistently rates as one of the best places to live in the world. I am here for 4-5 days then I am back to Sydney for a few days. then I am off to New Zealand, which I am really looking forward to. I spend 4 days in Auckland, on the third day the Honeymooner's fly into town and we have about 3 days of crazy fun together. We go to Wellington the day after they arrive, them on a 11 hour bus, me on a 1 hour plane, Suckers.

I don't have many specific goals while I'm here in Brisbane. I think I am going to go check out Byron Bay(the most easternly point of Oz) and hopefully Australia Zoo(Croc Hunters Zoo, R.I.P)

I din't have internet access the past 4 days so I apologize for the lack of emails and blogging, I'll make up for it this week.


See You All Real Soon

BONDI

Yesterday I ventured to the infamous Bondi beach here in Sydney. For those who don't know Bondi is the large public beach here in town. I did a lot of relaxing, checking out all the pretty ladies, you know typical Nelson stuff.

Then it started to rain and get cold, so my spirit was weakened. There was a mad rush to the bus stops, so instead of waiting around for a bus like a chump I went and ate at the Noodle King where I had Pad Thai and it was delicious. By the time I was done my delicious noodle dish the lines at the bus stops were much shorter and I ventured over and hopped a bus back to Bondi Junction, then I took a train back to my hostel.

I am staying at the Blue Parrot hostel in the Potts Point area of Sydney. It is a cool little neighborhood with a lot of bars, cafes and restaurants. Tonight is my last night here, because tomorrow I am off to the Gold Coast, which is apparently touristy but beautiful.

I think my week in Hawaii has spoiled my traveling frame of mind. In Europe I did not mind being alone, but now I am feeling lonely. I miss having 10 friends around to go do stuff with. Anybody want to catch a quick 18 hour flight to Sydney? I just have to remind myself that I will be meeting up with Mike and Deanna in a couple of weeks.

Vegimite Sandwich?

Greetings from Good Ol' Australia


I landed here in Sydney on Monday the 19th (Sunday the 18th for you people in Canada). So yes I am in the future and I could tell you what happens in the future, but the Australian government makes you promise not to before entering the country, Sorry.

Upon arriving at my hostel I immediately fell asleep. Even though my flight was only 11 hours from Honolulu it still took a lot out of me.

Sydney is an awesome city. I am here until Saturday(Canadian Friday) then I am flying up to the Gold Coast.

It was quite hard to leave the paradise of Hawaii, but I forced myself. Upon arriving at the Honolulu airport I was met by my awesome new friend and future yoga instructor Sandy and to my surprise Tina who had some flight issues. So the three of us spent around 6 hours hanging at the airport. We discovered a tasty little beverage known as a Macadamia Nut Mai Thai. Delicious! $8.00 a pop but totally worth it.

I think I am going to go check out Bondi Beach tomorrow. Andrea warned me about Bondi, I hope I come back the same man.

It is also ridiculously hot and humid here everyday. This makes it really hard to do a lot in a day , which I found out yesterday when I completely exhausted myself. I did however get to see the Opera House. My mom told me I should go see a performance at the Opera House no matter what, but my only option was a Marionette production and I couldn't justify spending $65 on creepy puppets.

It's Hard To Get Cold Feet On A Tropical Island

Well it is official Mike and Deanna are Man and Wife.


It was a great ceremony and reception. Many pictures were taken so I shall share them with you all when I get back to Saskatoon.


I have had an amazing week here in Hawaii and I am sad that it is coming to an end. But I have to look at the positives like the fact I'm off to Austraila tomorrow.


I reckon I'm going to have a rippin good time

Friday Night Punani Patrol

Greetings from beautiful Kauai

This place is amazing. You hear things about Hawaii being a magical place, but you do not realize how true that is until you come here.

Everyone flew into Kauai yesterday, it seems like almost everybody has some kind of plane trouble during their adventures to get here. Lots of delays, Joel was robbed at the Vancouver airport and other interesting events. But all of that doesn't matter now because this place kicks some serious ass.

Saturday was great because we all reunited. Everyone was very excited to see everybody else, despite the fact we were all tired and smelly from travelling.


Sunday was aweome. We all got up and had some breakfast, then we all eventually ended up on the beach. I forgot how great it was to just bob and swim in the ocean. All 10 of us who are staying at the party house were all down there at one point. We also soaked up a lot of sun. A few burns were discovered but nothing major. After our afternoon at the beach we went on the much anticipated booze cruise. And the cruise did not disapoint.

There over 30 of us from the Larson-Fast Wedding on the cruise, we basically took over the boat. We sat outside on this floor made from a trampoline and cruised the Pacific ocean while dudes came and gave drinks. We saw some whales which was awesome, at one point they were quite close to the boat. One of the employees decided to serenade Mike and Deanna with some local songs, which included a song called Punani Patrol. Which might be the greatest song ever. The combination of booze and the song was magical. Anna Bond got it on video so hopefully I can get it from her. A bit later after chicken wings and pineapple were served we saw so many dolphins swimming along side the boat. It was truly amazing. They were jumping out of the water and at one point we saw a whale and the dolphins, so cool. The booze cruise will definately be one of the highlights of the trip.

Well that's it for today, I think I'm going to go hop in my Chevy Uplander(best van/SUV ever) and go for drive then probably go to the beach and play in the ocean and work on my tan.

Wish You Were Here

ALOHA: It means Hello and Goodbye

Greetings my friends, family, and well wishers


This is my last blog from chilly Saskatoon for the next 5 weeks. Tomorrow I am off to Hawaii to witness the marriage of my good friends Mike Larson and Deanna Fast. I am very happy for both Mike and Deanna, but I am disappointed that they decided not to have a traditional Christifanity wedding which as we all know involves lots of booze, drugs, nudity, and farm animals........ah such as life.

After my week in Hawaii I go to Austraila and New Zealand for a month. In New Zealand I will be meeting up with Mike and Deanna for a few days on their honeymoon. Who hasn't dreamt of honeymooning with a close friend.
I am back on St Patrick's Day(March 17). So If any one wants to go for some green beers when I get back let me know.


Like on my last trip I will be sure to post on my glorious blog as much as possible and hopefully get some pics for you all to enjoy.

Other things to report:

I tried the videogame guitar hero at my cousins house and I must admit I was very impressed.

I would also like to thank Dave, Eli and Twyla for having me over for supper on Wednesday. It was the first homecooked meal in a while for me. I didn't even realize that there was no delicious meat until many hours later.

The new episode of LOST yesterday was totally amazing. Dave remember to tape the episodes for me. Twyla---nag him constantly so he remembers. If you could also tape 24 for me that would be great. Next week it's 2 hours long so tape accordingly.

I had a small shindig this past weekend. It was for Dave's upcoming 26th birthday and a going away party for Mike and Deanna because of their extendo-honeymoon. Many drinks were had and a good time was had by all. Also happy birthday Nicole.


Next time you read a new blog from me I'll be basking in the warmth of a tropical paradise.

When It Comes To OPP, Damn Skippy I'm With It!

I went out and shovelled my driveway today and then I looked outside a couple hours later to see that it was snowing again. How frustrating. I hate shovelling. I have a big driveway and that means a lot of snow. I have also occupied my day with laundry. For some reason I like doing my own laundry. One of my pet peeves is other people doing my laundry. I have been like this since I was like 13.

If anyone checked out Dave's blog today you would notice the announcement for the b-day/going away party this Saturday February 3rd. This will be everyone's oppurtunity to celebrate Dave's birthday and to say goodbye to Mike and Deanna who leave on the 5th for their wedding/honeymoon. You can also come say goodbye to me, but I will only be gone for 5 weeks while M & D will be gone for 5 months. I fortunately will be able to see M & D a bit more because I'll be at the wedding in Hawaii(Kauai) and I can confirm that I will be meeting them in New Zealand in Mid March. I found a really good deal on a return ticket from Sydney to Auckland.

Here are some pics of Kauai. I post these pics to make everyone not coming to the wedding insanely jealous





Warmest Regards

Coming Down Is The Hardest Thing

A quick apology to Luke and Dave for missing your calls on Saturday. I was over at my stepbrothers and I left my phone in the car. Don't worry you didn't miss much, I just had a wild orgy with Wonder Women, Sheera, and the Little Mermaid.








Not much else new in the world of Neltoid. Mike pointed out to me today that it is 12 days until I land in Hawaii. I can't wait for the good times to begin.

The Way Things Are Going They're Going to Crucify Me

Hey


Last night was a fun night.

Jeff's little sister Caitlyn took Jeff and I out for some free drinks. Caitlyn works for Earls and she was given the rough job of going to their competitors and comparing the prices of certain drinks. So Jeff and I being the great guys that we are went with and helped Caitlyn drink these beverages. We went to Moxie's, The Freehouse and the BarKing Fish, then we went to Earls where we had some more drinks and many delicious appetizers. Dave joined us at the BarKing Fish.

Not much else new to report.

Glad to hear that you got back to Cardiff safe and sound Nicole. Sad to hear that your place got broken into. I hope they catch the bastards.

See you Later

I Want You So Hard, I Want You So Good

Hey Folks


My grandma's 80th Birthday was a huge success. The 16 members of my family were able to pose for long enough to get our portrait taken. I wore my classic grey pants with a black button up shirt. Lets just say I looked good.

After the portrait my dad took my sister, neice, and I out for dim sum at Genesis. It was delicious. Then we met up with our family again for a come and go tea at the Parktown hotel. And a lot of people came. Apparently my grandma is really popular. Then about 30 of us went out for supper at the Granada, which I had never been to before. I had chicken fingers and beer.

After supper I dropped my sister and neice off and then I went to Amigos for the Fjords show. As expected they rocked out with their cocks out(not literally). It was a good night, I saw a lot of good people who I had not seen in a while. I spent most of the night talking to Twyla, which was cool.

So that was my Saturday.

Sunday I watched football with Paul.

Superbowl prediction: Colts 24 - Bears 17

Monday I hung out with my neice during the day and watched 24 that night. I can't believe that Jack's brother and father may be involved in the most recent attacks.

Yesterday I went and had wings with Gilles, Nicole, and Luke. It was a good scene.

Unfortunately Nicole has to go back to Wales on Thursday. See you in May friend.

720 Dunk—Better Quality

I don't know how many people who read this blog like basketball as well, but this blew me away. I have watched it repeatedly

Kick That Dirt Off Your Shoulder

I am a bit dissapointed that a couple of certain people have been using there blog links to attack each other. You two should really go to therapy. I'll pay for it. Metallica went to therapy so can The Fjords.

Jeff and I had an excellent day yesterday. We played Madden 07 for a few hours then we went to Nino's for supper I had dry ribs, Jeff had chicken fingers. Jeff knew our waitress so we got free drinks which was cool. Then we went back to Jeff's house and played more Madden. I went 1 and 3, so the next time we play I am going to have revenge on my mind. It's a good thing I am such a good loser, right Jeff.

Tomorrow is my Grandma's 80th birthday and my family has a whole day of things planned. The first thing we are doing is a family portarit. By my calculations there will be 12 adults, 3 toddlers, and a baby, should be a gong show. What is a proper portrait outfit? I think I am going to go with a nice shirt and sweater combo.

Tomorrow is also the much anticipated Fjords comeback show. So everybody should come check it out. I'll be there.

Did anyone else notice that the results for the super villian tests for everyone else the highests percentages were in the seventies, but mine was in the nineties. Maybe I am pure evil.

One thing I know is that I am not a coward like the annonymous insulter.

I noticed yesterday that a person from Russia checked out my blog. So here is a special message for my Russian friends.

I Don't Know What's Better, Getting Laid Or Getting Paid, All I Know Is When I Get One The Others Getting Away

Greeting Earthlings


Still no reply from the annonymous insulter. This person is clearly a coward. I am guessing they are a left-wing Liberal Pinko who hates freedom. This annonymous insulter really needs to put their money where their mouth is. If your grammar and spelling is so good that you feel you can insult mine then you should feel confident enough in yourself to compete in the grammar rodeo. If my grammar and spelling need improving then what do you have to worry about?

We had an excellent BC at Jerry's food emporium. I finally got to see Daved and Matteo. I had the Big Breakfast, it was good except for the bacon. I like my bacon crispy, not chewy. I guess I should have requested crispy, my mistake.

Dave and I played Lego StarWars the videogame on Friday which was quite fun.

Saturday after I spent all day at my stepbrothers watching football I went out for some drinks with Ryalls. Smith eventually joined us. It was good.

The season premier of 24 last night was pretty good. I can't wait to see what happens tonight. Those 2 years in a Chinese prison have definately changed Jack Bauer.

I'm Like A Russian Mobsta, Drinking Distilled Vodka

We got 25 centimeteres of snow here, how ridiculous is that. Blizzards suck unless they are the delicious Dairy Queen version. It took my dad almost 2 and a half hours to drive home from work. Normally it doesn't take over 20 minutes to get any where here in The Toon.

Being stuck in the house does kind of suck, but I have been making the best of it. Thank God for booze! Am I right, Holla!
I have been playing some scrabble with my mom and to no ones surprise I am destroying her and of course catching up on some video games you know typical Christifanian stuff.

I hope no one got stuck in a crappy place (except for my annonymous insulter, I hope he/she got stuck in like the worst place imaginable and I can imagine a lot of bad places, this is assuming this person lives in The Toon. I am still waiting for this person to come forward. The grammar rodeo won't be to hard, especially for someone who feels superior enough to judge a persons grammar and spelling).

Kudos to Jeffy on the new blog. I'm surprised you have even done one blog Pederson. I hope my prediction that you will totally neglect this blog doesn't come true. Did you go to Edmonton? If anyone could drive through a blizzard it would be you Jeff.

Who Do You Know Fresher Then Neltoid?

Looks like my annonymous insulter has yet to grow some balls.
If the annonymous insulter doesn't reveal themself soon I will have to start coming to some conclusions about this person and I will be forced to publish these conclusions. I can guarantee these conclusions will not be flattering.


Anyways....Apparently we are getting some blizzard action tomorrow morning here in the Toon. This of course means that the chances of me going out are slim.

Cold+Wind=Unhappy Chris

Here are some pics to take everyone's mind off the shitty weather

No One Insults My Grammar And Gets Away With It!

It looks like someone has decided to attack me through my comments option of this my glorious blog.

If you people do not know what I am speaking of then go to my previous blog and read the second comment.

Apparently someone is not a fan of my grammar or spelling. Well I'm not a fan of people who leave anonnymous comments. If you want to insult me via the blog then have the balls to put your name behind the insult. This annonymous insulter has touched a nerve with me. I worked extrememly hard over the years to improve my grammar and that hard work landed me a B.A. and hopefully in the future more degrees. Now I fully admit that my blog has had grammatical and spelling mistakes, but that is not from lack of knowledge, but rather a lack of proof reading.

So I have decided to challenge this annonymous insulter to a grammar competion or better yet a grammar rodeo. Reveal yourself annonymous insulter and answer my challenge! You have awakened the vengeful beast that lays inside me. Prepare to be humiliated.

Happy New Year To Some, Not All

I hope you all had a good New Years Eve and Day. I spent the night with my friends sharing some drinks and laughter. We almost missed the countdown, but fortunately I glanced at a clock at 11:59pm.


I like the rest of my family seem to be battling a cold at the moment. I hate colds. It sucks because I finally shook the cold I got like a month ago and now I have another one.

I personally think that New Year's Resolutions are lame. Why wait until the new year to make a change in your life. But if I had to make a New Year's Resolution it would probably be too tone down my cornacopia of awesomeness so that other people can show their cornacopia's of awesomeness.

Later guys and dolls
