Olympics thus far….

Well, there has been some incredible moments so far during the 2010 Olympics. Vancouver looks stunning on the TV and I’ve heard that the city is alive and excited. When Alexandre Bilodeau won the 1rst ever Gold medalon home soil and then you learned about his older brother…that is a great heartfelt story and I’m stoked that he won.

Another wonderful moment is Jon Montgomery winning the Gold in Skelton. I LOVED the vid of him skulling a jug of beer that some random person handed to him as he walked in the Whistler Village….a pure golden moment.

It was great to see all the hard work that Flynn Seddon has put into the snow & skier cross course turn out exceptionally well. The course looked incredible on the TV…well done Flynn, can’t wait to hear some stories over a beer.

Now here’s the part that some people will disagree with me on. Why is Ice Dancing an Olympic sport? I appreciate that we won a gold and I kinda hope that years from now, I only remember how many Gold we won and not specifically in which sports…..like Ice Dancing. So if Ice Dancing is your thing, then enjoy this moment but for me personally, I’ve had a chuckle at the whole thing.

And what the hell is the double luge and why is this something that anybody would want to do. Why is this an Olympic sport?

Here’s hoping for a great outing for hometown Hero, Kelsey Serwa tomorrow in the skier-cross…..GOOD LUCK KELSEY!

Underground Al saying keep those Gold Medal dreams alive all you Ice Dancers out there!

PS: Consectutive day # 101 this morning….life is good!

Procrastination…

maybe I’ll write about this topic tomorrow.

Super Bowl Sunday

Well looking out the weather window I see that it’s a real BEAUTY of a day. If you can’t have fun on a day like today, then you have some massive problems my friend. It is now officially Super Bowl Sunday. Although I’m not a huge NFL fan, I do enjoy the Super Bowl. My only complaint is this….It sucks big time that we don’t get the US commercials and instead have to watch “Budget, Brake & Muffler” or “Mr. Lube” local content crap. I bet that if there was a Pay Per View option, loads of people would go for it. I bet the Canadian Gov’t could even turn it into a fundraiser and collect Millions for some worthy Charities.

I just want to watch the commercials, that’s all I’m really saying on this BEAUTIFUL STUNNING BREATHTAKING Sunday ….What a Day EH! I’m going to be super bowl busy at the BBQ/Beergarden today…that much I know for sure. Oh, I just got reminded that My Mom gave me a Football Crock-pot about 5 yrs ago and I’ve yet to use it…I should really use it one of these days as it’s a cool looking little thing. I could put meatballs in it, maybe some chili…maybe a chocolate fondue? How about send me your favorite “Football Crock-Pot” recipe as I know you must have one.

Wouldn’t you know it…I googled Crockpot Football and mine came up! The other one that looks like a stadium is pretty cool as well…maybe grab me that one Ma just so I can complete the collection.

So Go-whatever team you want to win-Go.

I’ll see you for a Smokie & the Beer later….heh, that would make a great movie!

-Alfonzo out!
