Title: Golden?
Post by: tominbc on November 23, 2006, 04:42:59 AM

Anyone interested in a trip to Golden this year?  I think a little later in the season than the last would be better. Maybe january or february? No hurry, just thought I'd see if I couldget some interest going.

I am hoping to do a trip over xmas break again, working on the days its possible for. I will make some phone calls on this tomorrow. But even if we do manage it we should head again later in the year.

Ya, I really need to get some work under my belt to pay for my expensive repair bill. I would prefer to go after christmas break, but i'll make it work regardless.... It's only money right!!

Hey I'd like to go after break too.  Perhaps start of February.  Yeah that would be awesome.  I would like that alot.

Except Bob, he obviously loves me more.

Save Golden for later, sometimes after the holidays.  We should just go crash at Tom's and ski Big White and Siverstar over the Holidays.  I'm thinking of flying out there on Boxing Day and flying back into Calgary on the 30th.  Plus... Tom's house = Free.

I'm gonna get the time off today hopefully.

You all need to get or bring your girlfriends that suck at skiing/snowboarding so that I can come too!

That was a bit redundant Jami.  By saying "girlfriends that suck at skiing/snowboarding" you are in essence repeating yourself.  This is obvious to any man who knows that all women suck at sports.  Therefore any girlfriend would be assumed to suck at skiing/snowboarding and stating this is needlessly descriptive and repetitive.

Your amendment now reads:  "You all need to get or bring your girlfriends so that I can come too!"

To pre-empt/prevent any questions or hazings:  Yes, Mike you may bring a prostitute as your date and no, no one may bring my sister (note that the two subjects in this sentece are not related, ie my sister is not a prostitute so nice try).  That should decently cover all eventualities.  

Have a nice day.

Wow that got off topic.

Pffft, whatever Andrew! Just bring your girlfriend, make her snowboard, and I will be satisfied.

Decently what?

Because I am not one of your girlfriends that means that I can come right? I am just one of you!!!


Sorry Jami but these guys are mean so I have to work the angles!

Sorry man, I will not be able to take holidays for awhile!

Title: Golden?
Post by: Bob on December 02, 2006, 11:17:58 PM

Yeah I am still working on my holiday situation. It looks kind of sketchy for a long haul trip.

Post by: tominbc on December 02, 2006, 11:56:11 PM

Why go over the holidays?  If we go later in the season when Kicking Horse is supposed to be better anyways, wouldn't we have a better time?  Doesn't matter when it happens as long as the skiing is good, right?

Ya, I am with Tom. I don't really care when we go, as long as it's later in the season. I am dirt poor right now.. And painting work is looking scarce.. Time to find me a job.. That means 2 weeks to a pay cheque and no boarding till later in the season..

I have to get on Randstad's good side before I try to take any time off.
