Lit-ideasers,

I'm not superstitious, but keep your fingers crossed as my team [of me and 4
highschool buddies] competes with over 90 teams in the masters version of
the Canadian Pond Hockey Championship this weekend.
http://www.canadapondhockey.ca/main/ We're nicknamed the "Flatliners" [it's
an over 35 league donchaknow] and it's -19 C (now THAT's going to require a
couple of layers at least) in Huntsville today, so we canajans will be more
than comfy come tomorrow.

It's the first "vacation" I've taken since I biked around the same area 18
months ago -- thankfully in August. Some people go to "nice" places, but to
me, as a fearless hoser, a four-day weekend skating on a frozen pond in
February is a great break from the monotony of life. I'll let you know in a
few days how we fared -- can you say "ninetieth"?
