I had free tickets to the Ottawa Lynx baseball game on Saturday night. On of the fellows from church managed to secure a box for a bunch of us. It was fun to get out to a game, have a few laughs with (and at) some of the folks there and to get a surprise box of… Foulds Elbo Macaroni. Thanks Andrew!

Another highlight of the night for me was yelling at the little kids playing musical chairs. They needed the coaching because they obviously didn’t know the rules. Right at the end of the game, one chair, two kids, the music stops, the littlest kid is right at the chair’s seat and he freezes! So I yell, “Sit down!” (almost instictivley) loud enough that he should be able to hear me, but he snaps out of his stupor and continues running around the chair while the other kid sits down and wins the game. Disapointing. So were the Lynx, they blew their lead and lost the game.

Oh, and how about this… The Ottawa Lynx played the Norfolk Tide. The Lynx’s mascot is a Lynx — simple enough. The Norfolk Tide’s mascot is a dirty yellow dragon with spikes on his head — any ideas why?
