After winning last season, the league allows the winning team to be excluded from the next season’s draft to defend it’s title. And last night after a good game against Quikstix, we were able to two-peat. Woo hoo!

Unfortunately, we can only do that once, so we’ll all be part of the draft and it’s unlikely we’ll all stay together. It was fun for two seasons!

For the record, the Iron Rangers are:
Back row: Doug Selissen, Sam Colvin, Steve Schmidt, Mike Wilk, Dave Smith
Front row: me (Bruce), Bill Colvin, Kyle Fenech, Peter Yamamoto

No, I’m not trying to commit suicide! Although I suppose some people may argue playing hockey is

I got this cut playing my hockey game last night (Rebellion lost 6-5 ). During a line change, when I jumped out on the ice, somehow a teammates’ skate blade found the gap between my glove and my elbow pad. I barely felt it at the time – it was only later that night when I noticed a big scratch. I’m sure glad it wasn’t deeper!

I’m excited that a fellow coffee junkie mentioned he had caught some of the documentary Black Coffee which is playing in 3 parts on PBS. I’ve got MythTV set to record it and will report back when I get a chance to watch it. Looks to be a Canadian production which pleases me somehow.

While queuing up today’s Tour de France stage (the team time trial! one of my faves!), I got pulled into a documentary called Life. Support. Music. and ended up watching the last half of it. An inspiring story of a musician who suffers a brain injury and his family’s resolution that he would make a full recovery.
