The 2006 “Help Dan Get His Banjo” Campaign
SUSPENDED UNTIL FURTHER NOTICE!!

So, we are spending this particular long weekend being tourists in our new town. Our matching Bermuda shorts are dead giveaways…

To kick off the weekend, we went to see Superman Returns, in IMAX 3-D. What an experience! If you haven’t seen the movie yet, cash in your tickets for that Miami Vice remake, or the already-profitable-enough Pirates Of The Caribbean, and convert them to Superman tickets. IMAX 3-D if you can…take a drive if you have to- it’s worth the commute!!

We were both blown away by the grandeur of the IMAX screen, and boggled by the illusion of multiple images and objects seemingly being propelled from the screen to our faces! The movie itself was pretty good too. When one guy walked past us for popcorn, he looked real enough to reach out and touch!!

Yesterday, we took in our first CFL game locally, and with the simple purchase of a Stampeders baseball cap (they were out of football caps), we were instant members of their fan club. A little outnumbered though, as thousands of Saskatchewan fans (pronounce THAT one, Mrs. That Dan Guy!) were in attendance, to root for that team.

All for naught though, as their Roughriders got their arses kicked by the home town heroes in red…

Today, after Mrs. That Dan Guy gets ready (not enough coffee consumed yet, keeping my distance), we are off to the Zoo. They are supposed to have a great one here, and it is one more thing to tick off of our “To-Do” list. We are wild and crazy, to say the least.

On an unrelated item, I awoke this morning from a dream where I was attending a rural carnival, where Jay Leno was a standup comic on stilts. He made some kind of a wisecrack, which I replied to, and made him laugh with my witty retort. This has boosted my comedy confidence measurably.

Chow for now!!
