Ramblings - June 15, 2009

Another crazy weekend!  I managed to continue my trend of doing really awesome things…and forgetting my camera!  I got to play golf at a private course on Saturday.  Normally, places like that keep hooligans like me and my friends out by making it expensive to be a member.  Lucky for us one of our friends, Nik, is a member and he took us out there for his birthday.  The course was Caledon Woods just north of Toronto.  My foursome played 2 on 2 best ball and we still managed to score pretty high!  Needless to say the course kicked our asses on a few of the holes.  Below is a shot from a friends iPhone.  This is an awesome action shot of me driving the ball.  Since you can’t see where I hit the ball I will just tell you I drove it further than Tiger Woods can.  We managed to drown our sorrows in some expensive beers!  After that we continued the drinking at Nik’s place.  I got to bed somewhere around 4am or so.  Long night!  I spent Sunday in bed right up until hockey in the evening.  We kicked the living crap out of that team 11-1.  I actually managed to contribute with 3 points.  One thing I did to help break out of my slump was go back to an old stick.  This was a stick I used about 4 years ago and it got me plenty of goals back then.  More than anything I think the height of that stick is perfect for me.  I am probably going to cut my other sticks down to that height and hopefully I can get on some kind of a roll here.  Speaking of hockey, the Pittsburgh Penguins won the Stanley Cup on Friday.  They managed to edge Detroit by a goal in game 7.  It was a tense third period with Detroit missing the tying goal by an inch when Kronwall hit the crossbar.  It is actually pretty funny.  Pittsburgh goalie Marc-Andre Fleury gives the crossbar some love after it saved his ass.  Check out the video!

 

 

*Here is the shot of me teeing off on a Par 4.  This pic doesn’t do justice to how horrible my swing actually is.
