Pace on Earth

Grade Nine

Last Saturday some of the fellas from work and I rented a camp on the Miramichi. There is a sign on the side of the road as you come into Blackville with the sage advice of "Giv'er, your on the River!". Taking this advice we planned to test the effects of a dozen beer on one's washer tossing ability.

We went on the same trip last year and thanks to someone making the mistake of letting me be the voice of reason we did a few hundred dollars damage to another camp on the Miramichi by taking the outdoor game inside. We found out the hard way the difference between hardwood and softwood floors.

Determined not to make the same mistake twice we decided to get our fill of the outdoor game. We did just that and had crowned a champion by 6 0'clock (if it were me there would be much more written about this part of the day; and possibly a picture) after which time we retired to the comforts of the camp (check it here) and got to cooking dinner. Those not involved in the cooking sat down to enjoy the satellite tv (roughing it this is not!) and that's when we found an old gem of a flick.

I would be hard-pressed to name a movie that I have seen more then Revenge of the Nerds. I would also be hard-pressed to name a movie that has spawned more inside jokes or catch phrases - "What's the dirtiest thing ever said on television?". I would say that, with the possible exception of Top Secret, no film has made me laugh more. A true classic.

Cut and paste the link below Coach Harris for his speech. Gold!
