Thursday Cheers and Jeers

It's been kind of a slow week, but let's see what we can come up with:

Cheers
  • Cross the Line football camp. Brian Murray and his crew (including Riders Wes Cates, Belton Johnson, Dan Clark and Marcus Adams), put on a fine camp. The J-man wishes the RMF season would start today. So do I!
  • Enterprise Rent a Car. Consistently the best price when I'm booking a rental car for our annual Ontario holiday. Yes, I've already booked for a July holiday. Yes, I'm that much of a nerd.
  • Hill Avenue Drugs. I came in with a veritable shopping list yesterday (thank you, bronchitis), and was out of there less than 10 minutes later. That's service!

Jeers

  • Krazy Kiley's. I'm becoming a little less impressed with each passing day.
  • Tennis Saskatchewan. We're on the verge of the outdoor tennis season, and the provincial governing body hasn't had a functioning website in more than a week. Impressive!
  • Seasonal allergies. Just because.

Do you have someone (or an organization) you want to praise/rag on? Don't be shy. Let 'er rip!

I'm with you on the allergies!

Cheers:

Dairy Queen at Normanview -- it's nice to be told 'Welcome back', even in drive-through.

Jeers:

Tailgaters. The speed limit is 50 km/hr. I'm not going to break the law just because you're late for work.

People who throw gum, banana peels, cigarette butts, etc. out their car windows. The road is not a garbage can.

Aaaand.... I'd better stop now, because I'm getting cranky again.

By the way -- an extra Cheer:

Thanks, Pete, for doing this every week. I'm sorry if I take too much advantage of it, but it's a great place to rant and rave a bit. Although I try to keep the rants down to a single paragraph... which isn't always easy. :)

Thanks again!

Ranting is good for the soul, and the sanity!

But, haven't you heard the posted speed limit is only a suggestion?

An expensive suggestion... as I've found in the past. :)
