Montreal is the party place to be this weekend. It sounds like there are still tickets available or if Montreal is a little too far to travel you can always come and join us here at the Duck for our Grey Cup Party. No, we don’t have the cheerleaders, or the football players in tight pants or the guy with the fire coming out of his head, but we do have addictive hot wings, homemade burgers and a hot tub for half time. I don’t think that in Montreal you can head out for a relaxing dip during half time now can ya? That’s basically the just of Grey Cup at the Duck – the game will be on the TV; the concession will be open; the hot tub will be hot and bubbly; anyone can stop by and enjoy the game.
We have a tradeoff in the weather this morning, the sun is shining but of course it is cold cold and cold out there. Luckily they say the cold temps will not last and it will be close to zero on the weekend. Once again this is Manitoba so we will wait and see. As someone said to me last night we may get to the -1, but the wind will be howling and it will still feel cold. Global warming uh huh ya right.
Have you heard about the huge meteor sighting last night. I’m sure it is the talk of some watercoolers today. This is the story from the Winnipeg Free Press this morning http://winnipegfreepress.com/breakingnews/story/4252238p-4895949c.html It just seems so amazing that it was sighted all the way from Edmonton to Swan River area. It sounds like it was a once in a lifetime experience with the odds of seeing something like that pretty slim. Now the science guys start their thing to find out where it came from and etc. I am sure that later today there will be reports of people finding chunks of it. It will be interesting to see just which areas they found in.
Now I end this post with a chuckle.
F
rank was excited about his new rifle and decided to try bear hunting.
He traveled up to Alaska, spotted a small brown bear and shot it.
Soon after there was a tap on his shoulder, and he turned around to see
a big black bear.
The black bear said,
‘That was a very bad mistake. That was my cousin. I’m going to give you
two choices:
Either I maul you to death or we have sex.’
After considering briefly, Frank decided to accept the latter
alternative.
So the black bear had his way with Frank.
Even though he felt sore for two weeks, Frank soon recovered and vowed
revenge.
He headed out on another trip to Alaska where he found the black bear
and shot it dead.
Right after, there was another tap on his shoulder.
This time a huge grizzly bear stood right next to him.
The grizzly said,
‘That was a big mistake, Frank. That was my cousin and you’ve got two
choices:
Either I maul you to death or we have ‘rough sex.’
Again, Frank thought it was better to cooperate with the grizzly bear
than be mauled to death.
So the grizzly had his way with Frank.
Although he survived, it took several months before Frank fully
recovered.
Now Frank was completely outraged, so he headed back to Alaska and
managed to track down the grizzly bear and shot it.
He felt sweet revenge, but then, moments later, there was a tap on is
shoulder.
He turned around to find a giant polar bear standing there.
The polar bear looked at him and said,
‘Admit it Frank, you don’t come here for the hunting, do you
