Where Will I Be: Riotville, B. C.

Tomorrow morning, at the ungodly hour of 7:30, I will be flyin’ on a jet plane, heading to Vancouver British Columbia.  The main reason for the trip is to make fun of Canucks fans, because, as a fan of the Stanley Cup Champion Boston Bruins, that will not get old any time soon.  The secondary reason is to attend my eighth consecutive Grey Cup.

Now, obviously, the maxim will have to hold:  Quid occurat ad Grey Vas subsidit ad Grey Vas.  Nevertheless, I will try to do a bit of live-blogging from the week’s activities because if I have to live through countless repetitions of ‘Green is the colour, football is the game…’, then you should also suffer through it.  Obviously, I will have to figure out how to balance my beer while one-thumb-typing on the berry, but I will give it a go.  Names will also have to be changed to protect the innocent, but given that Mr. and Mrs. Roderick and the Brantford contingent are all boycotting this year, it kind of severely narrows down the number of innocents…

I will also post a few quick impressions of some of the finer dining establishments I hope to visit.  At this point, I am considering Rain City Grill, Tojo’s, Rangori’s, Salt and a high-end Richmond dim sum place whose name escapes me.  That may well change, and I will keep you posted.
