Oh - one minute until the Senators lose another game. This is not like them. You know, we almost had Mike Fisher to speak for Anniversary Service this year. Didn't work out, though. I've only got into Hockey since the lock-out. Much better game.
Maybe the whole issue of unionizing clergy might work too - you know, a pastor lock-out - might actually bring people to church if the ministers were out picketing. Ah, I'm just tired. Sermon's done. So are the Sens.
And tomorrow's the Grey Cup!!! Prairie Bowl in Toronto. Can't miss it.

Snowday
I met another dad picking up his kid after school. No buses today. But school still open. Tomorrow, PD day. No choice. "You're going to school, kids".
The other dad and I met eyes. We knew it. We were the absolute worst parents on the planet. Making our kids go to school on a snow day. Oh well, they have to learn to hate us for something before they become teenagers.
Was a bit redeemed by shoveling snow with the kids. Ah, that's childhood relived. Dad and kids out shoveling. Hot chocolate after. Global Warming bedamned! Let's just be a bit human. There may be many hot button issues in this world. There may be many, many hungry people, hurting people, lost and lonely people.
But today, they won't be my girls. Today, I'm just going to be their dad and not "the Rev."
Cheers
