So Ends Another Hockey Season

Well Folks, for the first time since September of 2003 I went to work on a friday morning & I was not tired. Why? might you ask... Well good question! Last thursday night/friday morning was the final game of our appropiately named "Drag Butt" hockey league. For the last 7 months the boys from work & abroad have faithfully showed up for our early 11 PM games which often went on till 12:30AM. I would not get home till 1-1:30AM thus making the following 7AM wake up quite the ordeal to even get out of bed let alone go to work. None of us were stars & the goalies would probably have a hard time stopping a beach ball let alone a 3 inch round disk of rubber but we had fun. We would go to work the next day "dragging butt", sore & tired. Why exploit ourselves to this punishment?

Because we LOVE the game!!

We were willing to go to the extreme to play the game we love.. which is something I can't say for the NHL or the NHLPA. Mabye one day they will realize that... already one day to late.

Registry Outrage!

Last weekend I had the absolute "pleasure" of starting a wedding gift registry with my fiance K @ the Bay. As you could imagine I was so excited that I forgot about the whole event until the night before when I was suttly reminded. So the next day we went & met with our "Gift Registry Consultant" Brie, a lovely consultant she was and yes, you heard me... A GIFT REGISTRY CONSULTANT... We proceed to her desk where Brie gives us their Wedding Registry Package or should I say "the nothing for groom-to-be or male package". We get this package that has a bride magazine, coupons for makeup & more useless promotions for the Bay.

As you can see I'm already board & the outrage is beginning. Then things change & we hit a TSN turning point. Brie breaks out the scanner that we use to scan the items. (Which, I promptly grab! SHABAM!) So after a short tour we are set free with scanner where I scan crucial items such as a wireless meat thermometer, a pizza cutter & one sweet blender among other household necessities.

Now we get the the real Outrage part. The slogan on the front of the registry package from the Bay says "Everything you need & all that you wish for". Well they certainly didn't have everything we needed & they certainly did not have everything I wished for! Unless of course I was wishing for fine china & colorful bed linen.. Which for information sake, I wasn't. They didn't even have anything cool other then the scanner I was using. The guy on the front our package has a guitar & he's smiling! He's probably laughing @ me because he knows the Bay really doesn't have any guitars but they just give him one for the photo shoot & he's happy! This is an OUTRAGE! AN OUTRAGE I TELL YOU!!

Canadian Tire would not stand for this!!


Just.. don't tell my fiance that... Please ... For my safety

And so it Begins...

Well, its happened... I have been sucked into this crazy world of Blogging by my good friends & the "Blog-fathers" themselves. JPTH International, The Archies & a recent addition to my weekly reading The Blog Whisperer have tantalized me with their inspired Blogging. So much so that I could not resist it any longer! (Actually, Peer pressure wins again..) Each blog having their own unique style & message that so enlighten my lunch breaks. Some making me laugh, some making me cry & others bringing me to the point of bringing my lunch back up... Just go to this web-site courtesy of the Archies & you will find out why... http://www.stinkymeat.net/stinkymeat/

So begins the saga I will call McGoo Inc. Where do I fit into this crazy world of blogging? I do not know. (Really, I don't.. If you could let me know that would be sweet!) But until then I will try to entertain you with stories, experiences & views from the world of McGoo!

P.S. Yes, The "McGoo Inc." sign is a one off collectors item made by me & no I will not sell it on E-bay
