I called Newfoundland on a boat and got a hold of Jack Bauer

Hey folks!

It's been a little while since I blogged last so here's the Ewey News!

I've been keeping myself busy during the summer with a loan of all of the seasons of 24 on DVD. Stephanie's sisters boyfriend Mike is home in Newfoundland and said I could borrow them. Seriously people, if you don't watch 24, you're missing quite possibly the best show on earth! Well, next to Baywatch.... The main character, Jack Bauer played by Kiefer Sutherland is the coolest character ever! This guy can kick the arse off of a steroid inflicted rhinoceros. Plus, his unstable temper and unpredictable personality keep fans amused to the highest. I'm pretty sure that every guy wants to be Jack Bauer... Or Chris Ewert. It's all the same really.

I've been keeping busy at the Grawood doing handy man stuff. Our black and gold room we have was in need of some repair and a new coat of paint, as it was last summer, so once again I was more than happy to get my hands on a drill and a can of paint and go to work. Since I live with two girls, I feel the need to flex my masculinity where I can to keep myself from getting to a point where I say that I enjoy trashy magazines, Oprah, and the odd chick flick.... And just to reiterate, I do not enjoy those things.

In about a week and a half, Stephanie and I are heading to her hometown of Grand falls Windsor, Newfoundland for a little vacay. I'm pretty excited to get out of the city for a bit and to have a chance to see and learn a bit more about where Stephanie comes from. I also get to meet her father for the first time. Everyone says he is a really nice man and we'll get along great, but he owns and operates a hunting and adventure business. This means he owns guns and is pretty savvy in the wilderness. This also means I will be sleeping with one eye open... ;/
Just kidding, I can't wait to meet him.

On a cool note, a buddy of mine hooked me up with a new phone. Well, not just a phone. It is a palm pilot, phone, camera, the whole internet dealy and an mp3 player. Although I really just want it for the use of a phone and to organize my life instead of writing things on little, easily misplaced pieces of paper. Say hello to my Treo 600 smart phone!

Last but not least, I am quickly gathering friends for the Harbour Cruise that we, The Scots, have organized. The boat cruise in the Hali harbour is August 17 and should prove to be a great night!
We managed to grab some traditional highland dancers, a Celtic band called Celtic Fair, and I managed to squeeze myself in there for a while so I can rock out on my new 12 string! If anyone wants to go, let me know as soon as possible because I need your money by August 4th at the latest. Or you can click here

There it is, the late breaking news. Enjoy!
