Is it too early for green beer?:
The King of Schmooze with the infamous 'Pyeman' during St. Patrick's day 2004 @ the Office Bar & Grill.

So in case you're wondering what this has to do with the month of February, please allow me the privilege of tying everything together for you.

It looks as thought the New England St. Pat-riots are about to win their 3rd Super Bowl in 4 years. This is not a bad little streak to have going. I can remember watching the first Super Bowl they won back in 2001 because I was in Sydney, NSW, Australia, Earth at the time. In reality I was watching the game the day after it was played. Go figure that one out!

The green is in honour of the noble warriors from the Philadelphia Eagles who are going to give it their all but ultimately fail in the face of a superior coaching staff led by Bill Belichek.

The photo of KOS with 'Pyeman' is in honour of the fact that my good friend and mentor is actually going down to Jacksonville to attend Super Bowl XXXIX. So if anyone wants any ticket stubs or programs from the game, or Tom Brady's jockstrap let me know so that we can place your order with Glen, er Pyeman. He actually 'dabble's in sports memorabilia so I'm sure if we asked nicely he might be able to accommodate requests. When I say dabble, think DABBLE. He also maintains a small interest in a Etobicoke institution, The Office Bar & Grill @ Bloor & Eagle Rd. (just east of Islington), 416.239.9484, where they serve some of the best (if not THE BEST) chicken wings in Toronto. If you're stuck for a place to watch the game this Sunday, and you are out in the westend, The Office is a great place. Think 'Cheers' and 'Rustic'.

For the rest of you, including myself, who are going to be in the vicinity of downtown (I'll be at the Raptors game till about 4 pm) we're going to be taking in the Super Bowl at 'Victory' which is at the corner of Duncan and Adelaide. Unlike some establishments in that area that have closed: Vinnie's Social Hall, Duncan St. Grill - Victory is still open.

I had the pleasure of watching the St. Pat-riots demolish the Steelers at this bar and it was quite enjoyable. The best part were the pair of 52" HDTV screens they have behind the bar. The picture was amazing!

Anyway, that's my bit about Super Bowl XXXIX. I'm not going to go on the record and predict a 72-3 victory for the St. Pat-riots like my good friend Tyler, but I'm going to say that the Patriots are going to win. Big.

What's the difference between an Irish wedding and an Irish funeral?
At an Irish funeral there is one less drunk.
