The Coffee House

Well I think I may have managed to get a couple of keepers in photographing old slides, as to me the really important ones are of the family, two of which we never had as photos so chuffed I managed it. The right PITA was clonning out the scratches.

Good morning again. I had a very good training session. The LT was real enthusiastic about GIS and the ability to make his own specialized maps.

I will put up the before and after on the slides, but first I must go and thank a man who said How too.

Mary Lou and Gary had dinner in Seal Beach. After dinner, we took a walk down the pier. The marine layer was closing in causing limited visibility.

That first photo is gorgeous Gary.

David I didn't see this when you first mentioned it, is it your uncle or your dad that moved into assisted living? Hope things go OK.

Denmark's up 3-0 over Norway, the 'home' crowd is enthusiastic! The USA barely won over Latvia yesterday; they're one of the smaller countries and sometimes those barely make it into Groups A & B to get to play at this level in the Worlds, but they've obviously developed their hockey program.

Smokey, ya gotta love minor pro hockey! The lower the level of play the more 'entertainment' to put butts in the seats. Even at top minor pro there are thunder sticks (hate when they'd give those out) and the blimp that tossed out coupons til the guys maneuvering it had it crash in the zamboni end (darn I got a picture of the guys with the controls but missed a picture of the actual crash landing!) and that was the end of that promotion. Or the owner's dad driving this amphibious vehicle he'd bought and banging it into the back of the arena and knocking bricks loose, so much for that promotion idea (and what he bought it for I have no idea). Or quite memorable, the wedding during intermission - they gotta get those people off the ice! - I've never seen zambonis roar out so fast. (Apparently they had to stay on time or they could get fined by the league.) Never a dull moment.

Had a coach heckle the pitcher on the opposing team last week... she’s 11. People are morons.

Way to set an example of sportsmanship....

Yup they had a blimp also, though they never bumped anything. LOL

As one of the league board members, I voted to remove him from coaching but I was the only one. Everyone else felt that a one game suspension and a one more strike and you’re out warning was enough. He’s an ass and should not be around anyone’s children. I volunteered to monitor the rest of his games. In my head, I call him Buttermaker.

That's ridiculous, and the coach should be removed.

My nephew (12 years old) has taken up lacrosse. At one of his games, a parent yelled out at the ref for a stupid mistake. The ref stopped the game, went over to the stands, demanded to know which parent said what, and said that one more outburst and he would be removed and not able to return. They're pretty strict against people heckling/yelling. While the person wasn't a coach, it was good to see how quickly it was handled.

Good for you! Personally, Gary thinks a warning would be the usual and customary course. Being the monitor was a good move. Don’t forget to video the future evidence evidence cuz most a$$holes will lie.
