Sell Out

Yesterday, my cousins and I caught the Blue Jays/Yankees game during the Simcoe Day holiday. It ended up being a rather exciting game, although the Blue Jays lost in the end. Among the highlights:
- Mr. David Beckham was in the house, throwing out the first pitch and then watching from a luxary box. No Posh Spice sitting though.
- Sitting along the left field/foul line and within shouting distance of Mr. Johnny "Sell Out" Damon. At the beginning of the game, I shouted "Sell Out" and my taunts evolved to "Your book sucks!" It must've affected his play because he screwed up a fielding play causing two runs to score.
- Environmental tips being displayed on the Jumbotron between innings. There's just something weird about that in a domed stadium called the Roger Centre (Roger is the cable company up north).
- Random fan in the crowd saying hi to each player in the bullpen, getting acknowledged with a wave from the pitchers, and then getting shot down after asking for a ball.

Anyway, it was great watching the game again in the dome. First time in 14 years. Pictures forthcoming.

Igloos, Where Art Thou?

Greetings from Toronto, Canada where it is only 33 degrees outside. Okay, that's in Celsius, which means it's around 91 degrees Fahrenheit. So hot! That won't stop me from having some Tim Horton's and maybe some poutine while I'm up here.

So your Canadian fact of the day: this weekend is a long weekend up here. Monday is "Civic Holiday," which my dad calls another excuse to have a day off. Very cool, eh?

Have a good weekend!
