We Are the Village Green Preservation Society

Back again is the incredible Bearded Backpacker after another long hiatus. I was keeping busy with my new job and hockey and slo-pitch and my other job and my little bro. So I no write.

Anyway good news, the hockey season ended. We went an amazing 0 wins a bunch of losses and 2 ties. I got kicked out of a game one night because I offered to open the gate for a mouthy guy on the other team who was being kicked out of the match. The ref invited me to leave as well. Superb. I scored a goal and added a few assists, but all in all our team no score too much and we were without many points. The plus-minus took quite a beating. Still it was great exercise and I had some good times and it let me meet some new people. Fantastic.

Slo-pitch has been a little more successful.We even won a tournament and received some free t-shirts. Whoo-hoo. Currently the club has been a bit of a slump, but we hope to pull out of it. The playoffs are coming and we want more t-shirts. T-SHIRTS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

So I must pass on my congratulations to my good friend Jim and his wife Neserine and the arrival of their young offspring Wee Willie. James is now a dad joining our other BIC Paulie as a parent. Hilarious. I am waiting to find the right lady before I venture that road, but I have been volunteering as a Big Brother to get some experience as a mentor and figure of adult to a child. Its goes pretty well and I have a lot of fun hanging with my bro Matt.

So the summer has been hectic and I just wanted to get an update to anyone who may still come too see what I have to say plus Jim was complaining.

Oh I have seen many movies this summer so that's kept me occupied too. The Dark Knight by far has been the best movie I have seen this year. Heath Ledger was amazing as the Joker. Its a shame we will not have that type of genius around anymore. It would have been interesting if we could have had the Joker back again. I guess they will have to find a new villain. Will it be the Penguin or the Riddler. Wait I know it will be Egghead. Get Vincent Price's son, Skippy from Family ties to take on the role. Where is Skippy these days?

I bet we been together for a million years,
And I bet we'll be together for a million more.

Oh, It's like I started breathing on the night we kissed,
And I can't remember what I ever did before.

What would we do baby, Without Us?
What would we do baby, Without Us?

And there ain't no nothing we can't love each other through.

What would we do baby, Without Us?

Sha la la la.

Well until next time
