Christmas Recap

We had a holly jolly Christmas here in The 'Wack! All family members were spoiled by friends and family; thank you all for your gifts. The turkey was very moist and cooked to perfection! We tried the Moose Milk with spiced rum as opposed to the black rum and it tasted way better. The kids were great and slept in all weekend which was a bonus for everybody else. Boxing day a bunch of us got to go to the Canucks game to watch them lay it on the Oilers; thanks for the free tickets Darcy!

Although it was a green Christmas we got some decent snow yesterday. All in it was a great holiday week. Happy New Years to everyone!

Don't forget to check out the Christmas video clips on the earlier posts below.

Christmas 2009 - Video #3

This one is just a short clip of Santa leaving. I will see what I can do about getting some photos posted too.

Christmas 2009 - #2

Looks like it might take three posts to get the videos up, here is video 2 of 3.

Christmas 2009

Been awhile since I posted, hopefully the new year brings more. Below is the first of two video clips from X-Mas 2009; I will try and get the other one up later tonight.

More Must See Photos

From the people who brought you National Geographics International Photography Contest photo's we now have 2009 In Photos and it is a must see. Link here. Be sure to see all three parts!

The Polar Express

We took the kids this past Sunday up to Squamish to see "The Polar Express" and ride it to the "North Pole." The kids had a great time although it was very windy and very cold. We ended up losing Cohen's teddy, aka security blanket; that made for a rough 24 hours but we got him a new one from Zellers! It was my second time driving the Sea to Sky Highway since the improvements and it was great. The picture quality is crap again as I had to consolidate the file size to fit within the upload parameters. My videography still sucks but will be better one day. Enjoy!

My Take on Tiger

By no means do I agree with what he has done. But, and that is a big but, if you are almost a billionaire and you choose to cheat on your very attractive wife, why would you do it with a bush pig like Jamie Grubbs?

Pictures of my Mo'

I will be shaving off the Mo' on Tuesday so I thought I would lay down a few pics. Don't forget, you can donate by clicking here. Pictures after the jump...

120 Days For Shooting Cyclist in the Head

I think the title says it all on this one. Worst part was he shot him in front of the cyclist's daughter. News report here and it is short enough to read.

Funny Stuff

The picture after the jump is rated PG but bloody funny. Came across it on a mountain bike web-page of all places. No kiddies allowed after the jump...

Another act of complete stupidity...

There have been a lot of stories have how stupid bankers and "financial professionals" were through this whole economic crisis. Follow this link to read one that made me laugh out loud, as a teaser it does involve O.J. Simpson. No wonder Washington Mutual went tits up and had it assets bought by JP Morgan Chase in one of many US Government aided bailouts.

Damn Cool Pictures

The Boston Globe on-line has a section they call The Big Picture and it is a collection of weekly photos from around the world. Right now they are running with 25 photographs from National Geographics International Photography Contest 2009 and it is a must see. Click here to see the pics.

Quickie

Short clip of the kids from tonight and a shot of the Christmas tree, will try and get the outside lights this weekend.

BC and the Economist

It seems every time BC and the Lower Mainland make it into The Economist magazine it is about something negative, such as the rampant poverty on Vancouver's Eastside; it will be interesting to see what happens to that area during the 2010 Olympics. Anyways, although not about the Eastside, the latest Economist has another article about BC and it touches on another issue that needs attention, our salmon stocks. Click here for article.
