BEEF

Thinking about BEEF on a BUN? It must be Magrath Days again! I usually don’t make plans to come through town on that weekend. I guess the last time I went through – it was our 10 year for the ’91 Grads, which means it won’t be long before I am at Dave’s 20 year status. Yikes – so that means that I will have to make an effort to come this year and make fun of Dave riding the 20 year reunion float! I am heading back from visiting my grandparents in Saskatchewan earlier that week, and since I have some time off, I think I may just head down and eat hot dogs, and hang out a bit more in Magrath? watch the parade with a flask in my cargo shorts, throw some water balloons at the parade, chew on some candy??

Here is the question: What is going on? I know Dave’s got the reunion gig, but what are the details of that? Friday night? Saturday night? Where is the party, dudes? Where is Waldo?

And a note on being pleasantly reminiscent: There are only a few people, most of them on this blog, who still refer to me as amos. I love the nickname, and I like that just a few core people in my life still call me that. It was a nick name given to me by Kent Saxton, If I remember correctly, from his south american influenced mission. I consider it to be one of two of my sacred nicknames – and that makes me smile! Does anyone want to join me in the memory of cruising around in a car with Kent and playing the Ramones “I wanna be sedated”?
