As much as I wish that I could say "Yes" to attending a once-in-a-lifetime local event Tom, at this point I doubt it. It's just not in my humble single income, family of four, budget. But I'm not complaining as the kids really benefit from Mom being home, at least for the next couple of years. After that though, who knows.

Right now it's all I can do to try to save a few rupies to one day add a VP100 and some QS's to my wonderful M22s.

When the tickets where initally offered, they were quite pricey - for most "good" events anyway. And since there's no anti-scalping law here in BC, the aftermarket prices are through the @#$@#$@ roof.

Isn't the coverage always better on TV anyway? That's what I keep telling myself. One day I'll believe it.
