95th Surfman Award: 6th Year Anniversary

Today was the sixth year anniversary of the day that my wife and I met. She gave me a card with this wonderful image of a penny farthing bicycle on it and the same image on a very cool hip tie that I plan to wear to work tomorrow. Every day has been better than the last, thank you T for your love and support, and for dancing like Hawkeye in the kitchen with me...you are indeed the "Liz Lemon" of Toronto. One day we will figure out who that Yeti in the basketball outfit was?

94th Surfman Award: Leonard "Mr Spock" Nimoy

On Saturday, August 29th, Leonard Nimoy signed my type 2 phaser at the FanExpo in Toronto. This phaser is an exact replica of the one that was used in all 3 seasons of the original Star Trek. I waited three and a half hours in line, for my signature, but it was well worth it. I remember watching the original series that started it all when I was just a lad. I didn't quite understand it than but I knew that Mr Spock was a cool and interesting and I would become a life long fan as I watched all the seasons in re-runs as I grew up. Mr. Nimoy still exudes a "cool" factor and I was so thrilled to have my phaser signed, that I had it placed in a shadow box and I hope to pass it along to the next generation of my family. Thank you Spock, and may you truly LIVE LONG AND PROSPER!
