Attendance 19  Report by The Beak

Anvil Gets clearance from Sue to go to Toronto!

Basketball Jones provided the on and off ice laughs for the night.  He started by walking into the Women's locker room before our game, then he did the Thor Tango at the blue line when he tried to keep a puck in the zone.  He had all of Thor's Moves, except for the flop finish and stick toss.  At the start of the third period, there had only been one meaningful goal in the last 7 periods of play.  There were a couple of disputed-disallowed goals early in the game, but we didn't have Hacksaw there to settle the disputes with his imaginary phone.  We had to work with imaginary whistles instead.  Thor poked a puck into the net after The Anvil lost the handle on it, but the Reds disallowed it, because the imaginary whistle blew the play dead.  Geno appeared to break the scoring drought when a Brink's pass hit him in the skates and caromed past Eddie.  The Reds again disallowed the goal, claiming that he made a kicking motion.  The Brain stoned Magoo with 2 beautiful point

blank glove saves.  The Reds claimed the puck had broken the imaginary goal line plane before it was snatched by the Brain.  Magoo didn't have a prayer of keeping that goal, since the Whites lost 2 disputed goals.  Beak finally ended the Meaningful drought when He deflected a pass from Brinks past the Anvil.  The Tick, Tack, Toe play started when Basket Ball Jones (Tim Smith) fired a pass to Brinks, who steered it to Beak.  Thor was having a bad night until the closing minutes.  Not only did he have a goal disallowed, but he rang up the iron twice.  Then it happened, he finally got one past Eddie and then had another shot find it's way into the net.  The Reds started quickly with a goal by the Flea on his first shift.  The Whites answered with 3 goals by BBTW and one by Butt Head Morgan.  The Reds made it close on a Mini Wheezer goal that was set up by the long lost Harvey, who showed up in a long Limo.  Bill Conti and Rich Storm picked up the remaining 2 goals for the Reds.  Making it a 7-4 final.  Fruitcake Fred was a no show with out an excuse.  Tommy Z and Tweedy were playing in an outdoor Men's league tournament.  Beak Jr. and Rob Granato were in Nashville with their sons, who advanced to the Championship game and missed their flight home. 
Other News: Tweedy silenced the Anvil at Rich Storm's Fantastic Festiveas Festival with a prank phone call.  The Anvil was ready to bring $500 to bail his son Nick out of jail for burning up a chemical toilet.  A good time was had by all, except for anyone that was offended by locker room and sailor language.  Bill Conti spent most of his work day studying Duffer History on the Internet last week.  He might have been fired, but his boss is the Duffer that invited him out to play.  The Anvil's Wife, Sue, told Eddie that He is going to Toronto!  That should be final.  Jen also gave The Brain the clearance to go too, but she lacks the clout that Sue has.  We will have to wait and see on that one.  We are still waiting on the Nailer and Papa Joe to get permission. 

Thanks To Mike Presecki for providing us with a great party, Beak told him to write it off the cost as a Toronto Recruitment event.  He replied, "You don't even know what a write off is."

I forgot to bring my camera home, (No I wasn't drunk, I was the designated driver) so I though I would have to get out of my PJs on Sunday Morning and go to Rich Storm's house.  Fortunately he is a bigger Cyber Geek than me, He downloaded the pictures to his computer, then uploaded 10 of them to me, so that I could share them with you.  What a country!  You can click on the images below to see a bigger image.
