In reply to belknits. Ya, I just discovered that video, and the two others in the series, yesterday. Very entertaining. And yes, Alec has way more commitment to the game than my team did.

So true, Nate.
Reading your post made me think of this ad I just watched where the guys says, “Wow… your commitment level is so high!”

You rock, Nate!! I know you’ll make it to space someday, and I won’t be joining you, but I’d love to for you to snap a picture for me while you’re up there!
Love,
Bel

Thanks Big Sister!

And thanks Pam! I can’t believe you found my blog! I was going to send you a message to let you know about my little shout out to you.

Well I’m glad you found it, and I’m also glad you gave me the links to your class blogs, because I was going to ask you for them. Let Nickrat know that I liked his essay on Shawshank Redemption, which is one of my favourite movies ever. But I think he’s viewing it too negatively. Andy doesn’t resign himself to fate, he just chooses to see only the good in an unchangeable situation. He hasn’t given in – he’s actually more hardened against prison than anyone else there, because he’s the only one who still has hope in a completely hopeless place.

“I could see why some of the boys took him for snobby. He had a quiet way about him, a walk and a talk that just wasn’t normal around here. He strolled, like a man in a park without a care or a worry in the world, like he had on an invisible coat that would shield him from this place. Yeah, I think it would be fair to say… I liked Andy from the start.”

AHHHH – I loves you Budd! You made my day! I, too, thought your visit made my weekend so special and you took me back to great times! I am so proud of the amazing man you’ve grown into – although you were always amazing! Even as a geeky Grade 9 boy in a ketchup shirt and matching ball cap! Thanks for taking the trek. Next time – date in the mountains!

Here are the blog from my Grade 11 AP (20) and Grade 12 classes!

I agree totally, Nate. It was a superb and very unusual meal. I so enjoyed having the 2 of you there. The only thing that would have made it better would have been to have Belinda, JP, Emily and the kids there. Oh well – maybe another time.
