Creativity Dial at 10
Well whaddaya know, a satellite dish CAN get strong receiption through a group of trees! I'm impressed.
I've got the dish set up, and I'm very happy now. (understatement)
I honestly wish everyone could have watched us setting it up, it was very comical. I finally found the signal, and *boom*, there was the hockey game, Edmonton vs. Dallas, 3rd period, 4 minutes left, Oilers up by one goal. So, we moved the TV off the entertainment centre and put it on the floor facing the balcony where I could see it from outside. Then, I went back outside, found the signal again, and HELD it (or, tried to, repeatedly, after losing the signal every 30 seconds) so Cheryl and I could watch the last few minutes of the game.
Go Oilers Go! Oilers won 4-3, the series is tied 1-1 and headed to Edmonton for Game 3 tomorrow night.
Ahhh... relief.
A real hero
Bravo Jason!
My eyes were getting pretty misty by the end of this remarkable story. Thank you for sharing it!
WUSA begins today
Today is the the opening match for the Women's United Soccer Assocation, between the Washington Freedom (starring Mia Hamm) and the Bay Area Cyberrays (starring Katia and Brandi Chastain).
It's televised, so watch it if you can. I don't have TV yet, so I can't.
Earthquake in DC
A 5.3 Earthquake hits 40 km from Dawson Creek, BC!
A friend's parents live in Dawson Creek. I hope they're alright.
