More than with his other two Super Bowl teams, Belichick truly liked this team, from start to finish. On his first championship team, he had the Drew Bledsoe headaches to tiptoe through; he really didn't like Bledsoe much as a quarterback from the time he took the job, and the transfer of power to Tom Brady in 2001 was awkward

The Canadian dollar is making huge ground on the American dollar....

Did alcatraz at night, I'd recommend it, much scarier.
Definitely hit all the small restaurants.
Haight/Ashbury is cool.

I went over Christmas, it was cool. Went to the northstar.
Get around by transit.
Go to Castro, Mission, Chinatown, Union Square. Cool Neighbourhoods.
I stayed at the York on Sutter street...cheap and I thought it was fairy nice. I don't spend alot of time in the hotel, so I don't look for a 4-5 star hotel. Free continental breakfast to boot!

okay, I'll do some homwork, get some cost information and I'll be in touch. We see if we can work something out if it's cost effective.

cool....are you driving or flying?
If you need any info about Calgary, let me know. It's a great place and I can give you lots of tips on places to go, nightlife, mountains, touristy things, etc.
How long are you staying?
My uncle is a customs person so I'm checking with him, and I'm crunching some numbers on costs, etc, for shipping, etc.
What I'm looking at bringing over are 4 alloy rims with tires and an OEM spoiler.
So, they will take up alot of space.
But, if it all works out, maybe I can help defray some of your travel costs or some other mutually beneficial arrangement.
If you don't mind me asking, is it alot cheaper in Canada for laser eye surgery? I guess the strong Canadian dollar isn't working to your favor right now. But I think I've seen eye surger advertised at $495 an eye.

$2.5M for tiger mauling at game park

HAMILTON - Two people who were mauled by tigers at a wild game park nine years ago won more than $2.5 million in an Ontario court on Thursday.
David Belac and his former girlfriend Jennifer-Ann Cowles convinced Madam Justice Jean MacFarland that they had not ignored posted warnings to keep their car windows closed as they drove through the African Lion Safari park near Hamilton on April 19, 1996.
In a ruling issued on Thursday in Hamilton, the judge said the park should be held "strictly liable for damages resulting from such display" of wild predators like Bengal tigers.
She awarded Belac $1.7 million and Cowles $813,000.
The couple argued that their windows were closed prior to the attack. They were opened, they said, when a tiger bumped the car, startling Belac and causing him to accidentally hit the switches for the automatic windows.
One 113-kilogram tiger reached in a window and mauled both Belac and Cowles. Two others tried to climb in while the couple struggled with the first.
Belac, an accomplished accordion player, was bitten on both arms, his right arm suffering muscle, tendon and nerve damage.
Cowles was an exotic dancer at the time, and argued the injuries she suffered and the scars they left ended her career as a "feature" dancer and curtailed her ability to make money as a stripper.

Document Everything. Pictures, receipts, written records of conversations. Get witnesses, etc. Sounds like you won't get paid.
You will have to go to small claims court and obtain a judgement against him. And you will get a judgement, but it will be a hollow victory. (no need for lawyer, do it yourself).
Then the fun begins, collecting on your judgement. You can either garnish his bank account with the judgement or use something similiar to a civil enforcement act to have a baliff seize his property. Does he have a vehicle or anything like that?
Have fun. He holds alot of the cards. If he wants to not pay, he'll not pay and let it drag or make you jump through all kinds of hoops and make a deal to pay 25% or 50% of the costs. Because it will be difficult for you to get 100%. But it can be done.
PS. IF he really loves his dog, you can threaten him by saying that if he doesn't pay you will call the Animal Control society and his dog will be put down. That's the approach I would take. And even if he can't pay it all at once, I would try to at least get the first $100 or so and see if he's gonna play ball, or he's just yanking your chain.

Credit ratings can have nothing to do about how you manage your money or deadlines. Alot of people get into bad credit, because of circumstances outside of their control. Death in family, loss of job, sick child, etc. Failed business.
-
How does your credit rating correlate with hiring a good employee? I don't get it? Do I care how my employees manage money and spend it, as long as they do a a good job from 8-5 while they are at work?

awesome post davey boy. It seems like Pats pick players to play. We pick players to develop.
Bellichek had a quote about every player must find his role. No player is coming along for a free flight and a free meal to a game. Find your role.
