...Almost there!
WOW!!! Where has the time gone??! I can't believe Christmas is just 5 days away! It's been really busy here at the station getting ready for the big day...hockey games...remotes and special guests on the show. Mr. Scrooge...Alfie the Elf...and yes even the Captain of the Magic 94.9 S.R.T.(Snow Removal Team)...Jerry Neville.
With the mysterious destruction of my camera...( I blame Pumpkin Man's brute force)...I have been given a few pics to post from the last couple of weeks. I hope Santa finds me an extra special SLR digital camera with GPS navigation and built-in hand warmers...time will tell :)
Thanks to the team from 14 Wing for taking the Misfits on last weekend on the base. It was a blast, we raised money for Greenwood Minor Hockey, Christmas Daddies and after only suffering a one-goal loss, a few bruises (way to take it for the team Milne)...and a bad bean burrito before the game...I'd say it was a great success for the Misfits.
A special thanks to my Secret santa too...nice work on the Leafs touque.
The Magic 94.9 staff party is this weekend...I've already borrowed a helmet.

The mall, a Tree-Lighting and an army of Robots...
It was another busy week in the Valley!
There were many tree-lightings happening throughout the valley, and I had a chance to take in the Town of Kentville's festivities! Here you see Santa himself posing with some fellow Misfits and their offspring...I asked Santa if my new Britney Spears CD was in his bag, he said it was waiting for me at the mall...what does that mean?
...here you see some random people trying to break into the Magic 94.9 cruiser...oh, wait a minute...no...for a second I thought that was the Evil Dr. Cortland in the back, but I don't think so...well maybe...I heard he WAS a ladies man.
Friday night I returned to the County Fair Mall, with $10,000 more reasons to shop there with a live remote. Another lucky winner won the weekly draw for a fantastic sparkling gift from Charm.
Then Saturday was in one word...AWESOME. It was the 2008 Acadia Robotics Competitions! Elementary and High School students from as far away as No-idea-where-it-is-ville, Nova Scotia invaded War Memorial Gymnasium for Some First Lego League robotic wickedness. I mean you won respect, a Lego trophy, prizes from the University and Michelin...not to mention a lovely meal card that was fully stocked with pizza credits. I tried to trade a kid a slightly used pen for one, but he was too smart for me...of course he was...he programs robots and I still can't even program my VCR to tape Oprah. The day was a long one, but at the end of it all, everyone felt rewarded and it was a great success and joy to be a part of it!
...well until next time...I feel the need to go play with my Lego.
