The Trailer - Week Four - May 29-31

June 2, 2009 @ 08:10

This weekend at the trailer wasn't really a weekend at the trailer. It was more a weekend with some good old buddies on a golf course near the trailer.

If you listen to the audio clips that I post on CanadianThinker.com you know that I do a "hit" with Neil Morrison in Vancouver every Friday afternoon.

Neil does the mid-days at CFOX in Vancouver but most of your probably remember him as Brother Bill who used to do afternoons on the Edge during the latter Humble and Fred years.

Neil is getting up there. He's pushing 40 but he's about to get himself married. He met a wonderful woman in Vancouver named Gabrielle and they're getting "hitched up" on June 26th out on the left coast.

I'm thrilled for Neil because I never thought he'd get married. Hell, I never thought he'd get laid, so this comes as a pleasant surprise to all of us who love him. And that's a lot of people.

Because of his ties to the east (Neil grew up in Brampton) he came back for a stag weekend with a lot of his personal, radio and record company buddies.

On Saturday afternoon we golfed at a despicable little cow pasture in Norwood called Oakland Greens Golf and Country Club and then we went back to Scott Carmichael's impressive cottage on Stoney Lake which isn't far from the tin palace.

Scott has created quite a place on the lake. It includes a wonderful main cottage, and a so-called "barn" that acts as a practice studio for bands. It's freakin' awesome.

Scott's cottage was the location of a Molson Canadian Private Party a few years a back. I saw the fire pit where the Chilie Peppers entertained a few dozen people.

It was a great day with some great friends and we finished it off with some great food and booze.

Here's a picture I love. Me with some of my favourite people. At some time or another we all worked at CFNY together. From left to right.

Neil - getting married to a gal from the coast- I can smell a new Canucks fan!

Everytime I listen to you and Neil I think I realize what we really miss on Toronto radio besides Humble and Fred, Neil was damn good on the air and Im sure hes lighting the radio waveson fire out in Vancouver.

i miss Brother Bill on cfny as well. i chatted with him once or twice ..maybe when he was doing the live to air thing at that bar across from the wheat sheaf at bathurst and king..was it called studio 69 or something? he seemed like a good, genuine guy so i'm happy for the dude.

i just turned 40 myself and just got engaged - that's the way to do it Brother. by virtue of life experience alone our marriages might have a fighting chance.

If you guys didn't dissuade him after a bachelor weekend then it's love and best wishes.

I must say that overall I am very taken with this site. It is apparent that you know you subject matter and you are passionate about it. I wish I had got your ability to write. I have bookmarked your site and look forward to more updates.

This is good! How did you learn the subject when you were first getting into it?

Creating a Mosque at Ground Zero has got to be the retarded idea within the history of the human race, I truly do think that it is maliciously conceived, at very best, to insight conflict. I'm no conspiracy theorist still this is either shameful or evil, likely both of these. valarie
