Congratulations Steven and Carrie!

My long, long, long time friend Steve W called me from Australia just before I was due to leave for New York to inform me that he was now engaged to Carrie. This didn’t come as a shock to me at all of course. But heck, it does make me smile a bit when I think back a few years to a particular pub crawl… Steve did you really know what you were getting yourself into? Haha! I kid, I kid :-)

Again, congratulations!

Start spreading the news...

Well, I actually leaving tomorrow, but *finally* I am heading off to New York. This ain’t a real short trip either as a friend and I are going to be there for 6 straight days. This is also the most unprepared I’ve ever been for a trip as well, in terms of planning what things to see and do. But I really don’t think too much preparation is needed, right? Apart from the obvious places to visit (statue of liberty, times square, empire state building, yadda yadda yadda) these are some of the other things I want to do:

  1. Watch “The Daily Show”.
  2. Watch the David Letterman show.
  3. Get our mugs on NBC morning news.

There are other things, can’t remember them at the moment, maybe I should plan this better…

Florida Panthers

The NHL ice hockey season is back and so I went to go watch the Florida Panthers play the Carolina Hurricanes. Unfortunately the Panthers lost in penalty shoot outs 1-2 but it was still a pretty good game. There was even a fight where gloves came off, as did helmets, and some fists got thrown about. All in all, just what I expected :-)
