My Life these days:

Study, work, study, study, work, study, study, work... repeat until infinity.

At a grade school in Victoria a teacher was talking with her students about football. She told the students that she was a BC Lions fan. She then asked her students to raise their hands if they, too, were Lions fans. Everyone in the class raised their hand, except Little Johnny. The teacher looked at Little Johnny with surprise and said, "Little Johnny, why didn't you raise your hand?"



"Because I'm not a Lions fan," he replied.



The teacher, still shocked, asked, "Well, if you are not a BC fan, then who are you a fan of?"



"I am a Saskatchewan Roughriders fan, and proud of it," Little Johnny replied.



The teacher could not believe her ears.



"Little Johnny, why are you a Roughriders fan?"



"Because my Mom is a Roughriders fan and my Dad is a Roughriders fan, so that makes me a Saskatchewan Roughriders fan too!" explained Little Johnny.



"Well," said the teacher in an obviously annoyed tone, "that is no reason for you to be a Saskatchewan Roughriders fan. You don't have to be just like your parents all of the time. Why, what if your Mom was a moron and your Dad was a moron, what would you be then?"



"Then," Little Johnny smiled, "We'd be BC Lions fans."

Beer Frisbee Rules

Playing Equipment: 1 frisbee, 4 empty beer bottles

# Of Players: 2, 4, or 6 in teams of 2.

The Setup: Take 2 bottles to either end of a 15m (15 paces will work)
straight court. Stack the bottles one on top of the other (may take some
practice but you will get the hang of it). There is a line drawn
perpendicular to the length of the court at the position of the bottles
called the 'plane of the bottles' or more simply the plane. You cannot
cross this plane while throwing or catching the frisbee. The hog line is a
variable beast, it is as far as you can stretch while keeping one foot
behind the plane of the bottles. One player from each team stands at either
end of the court and of course, all players must have a drink in their hand
while playing. Play can be stopped for refills. Flip the frisbee to see
which team starts first.

Object Of The Game: To make the other team drink 3 beer before they make
you drink three beer.

Play: You alternate throwing the frisbee at the beer bottles. If team A
wins the flip then they go first. Team B will throw second and third, and
team A fourth - A1-B2-B1-A2. If you are playing with three teams, the shot
sequence would go A1-B2-C1-C2-B1-A2. If you miss the bottles play goes on.
If you hit the bottles the other team drinks the amount corresponding to
the following Game Shot chart. The teammate of whomever knocked the bottles
over must set the bottles back up (need something to do while the other
team drinks).

Game Shots: (I [Spaceman] have witnessed all of these shots be made)
1/4 knock both bottles over
1/2 knock top bottle off, leave bottom bottle standing
3/4 just tick the bottles without knocking them over
1 knock bottom bottle out and get top bottle to stand on ground
1 1/4 knock top bottle off and have it stand back up on the ground
1 1/2 knock top bottle off, leave frisbee touching bottom bottle
1 3/4 knock bottles over and have the frisbee completely cover a bottle
2 frisbee still touching bottles with both bottles still standing
2 1/4 knock both bottles over and have the frisbee lay on top of bottle (no
part of frisbee may touch the ground)
2 1/2 knock top bottle off and get it to stand touching the bottom bottle
2 3/4 knock bottles over and have one bottle lay on top of the frisbee (no
part of bottle may touch the ground)
3 knock bottom bottle out, get top bottle to stand on frisbee - GAME!

Another important rule is that you cannot pre drink. Drinks are taken only
when owed (this doesn't mean you can't drink sociably while the game is in
progress). There are a few penalties to keep in mind:

Infraction Penalty
Step across the plane while throwing throw does not count
throw when either player does not have a drink in his/her hand throw does
not count
break a bottle drink 1/4 beer
frisbee doesn't cross hog line drink 1/4 beer
knock over own bottles while throwing drink 1/4 beer

Full Contact: If you find the regular game too easy you can always spice it
up by making it full contact. This is a twist to the regular game,
everything is the same except that once the frisbee is thrown and crosses
the plane of the target bottles, the thrower's partner can try to redirect
the frisbee into the bottles anyway possible (hands, feet, head, etc). The
opposing team can do whatever they want to try to prevent this (tackle,
lift, throw opposition). Remember the frisbee has to cross the plane of the
target bottles before it can be redirected. Also remember, that if you
knock down the bottles with your body whilst jostling, whoever knocked the
bottles over has to pay the 1/4 beer penalty.

I had the weirdest thing happen to me... I was speaking to a Jazz agent in
YYF, and she said to me "DECS isn't working" .. I knew EXACTLY what she
meant... Do you? ( She meant to say OPS isn't working )

Give me a shout out if you know what she was talking about!

Air Canada plans to emerge from CCAA protection on September 30, 2004.
Why, when people speak of CCAA they say "See See Double A" ... Why not "Double See Double A"

Here is Kathy sipping her fresh mango juice before departure from HK. The big seats are so nice! Once I get some of the panoramas put together, I'll post them on the main site.

We are home... more pictures to follow.... tomorrow..

Today we are leaving our friends in Hong Kong. It was a great trip... Thank you Cara and Andrew once again. Cara, your bouts with sickness will be over soon, and it will be worth the effort. You are going to be a great Mom! Andrew, I wish you didn't have to work so much, the time we spend together are always my favorite parts of the trip. Keep working hard but remember to take a day off once in a while. ( to go for Yum Cha with Cara )

We love you guys very much and we will miss you. When are you coming to Smithers??

After Tai O we hiked from The Giant Buddah to Tung Chung, it took three hours from start to the very finish. It was amazing, waterfalls, Buddist temples, great views of the airport and we found the perfect place we would like to live.. I just wish I could remember the name of the place...

Yesterday we went to Tai O, it was a neat little fishing village. Lots of smelly dried fish everywhere.

What a weird day, I was interviewed three times by different groups of high school students... I was in heaven! (Yes I'm wearing socks with sandals... my sandals were only 3 days old when I got here, and they hurt my feet when I wear them without socks...)

This guy was hilarious! He was so into the interview.... I guess you just had to be there.

We went to Kowloon today to do some shopping, we found some X-box games for "The Dude", and I bought a second battery for my camera. That was all we intended to buy today... but...
