There’s not been a heck of a lot of time spent on the blog these days, but we got a really good reason.
If you had been hanging out in either #lockergnome on the Wyldryde network on Wednesday evening you would have known that little Nathan Riley began his entrance to this world at a little after 8:00PM.
After a few starts and stops he decided the time was right at a little after 9:00AM on the 28th, and here he is - one whole day old.
He’s a big boy, weighing in at 9 lbs, 11 oz, and standing 21″ tall at birth he’s bound to make a great defenceman for some CHL team.
Since then my time has pretty well revolved around him - it’ll probably be that way for a while.
Nathan’s mum is our only daughter, those of you who have been around for a while will remember her as the girl who walked from Duncan BC to Ottawa a couple of summers ago to help raise awareness about the issue of youth suicide in Canada.
Whooee! Congrats, StageFeller! Ma an’ I became grandparents back on August 13 so I know what sorta happiness yer feelin’.
I ain’t left many comments here lately ’cause I been busy commentin’ at a couplafew boogin’ tory boogs. I wanted t’ drop by an’ wish all o’ bunker-dwellers a Happy New Year!. I know it’ll be a little tuff with Canadee’s Noo Gummint flexin’ their minority muscles in a majority way but I sorta hope we don’t get an election too soon. The HarpoonTossers ain’t quite shot all their toes off yet an’ it’s fun watchin’ ‘em wiggle.
Merry Christmas, Happy Chanuka, Happy Kwaanza, Happy New Year, Congratulations on the Grandson,
JimBobby
