In an effort to add some discipline to my easily distracted mind, I am creating this blog to practice writing and photography on a somewhat regular basis. The title comes from a story about my Irish Grandfather. When I was a baby anytime my mother would ask him if he wanted to hold me, he would say "Does he still shit in his pants?" It sounds like something I would say about a baby and it makes me laugh every time I think about it. BTW, YOU CAN CLICK ON ANY PICTURE TO SEE IT FULL SIZE.

February 18 The One That Got Away
If you play sports for any length of time, you know you win some you should have lost and lose some you should have won. The latter is what happened to my NorthStar hockey team last night. We needed to beat the Predators to finish in second place for the winter league. We lost 7-5. We played one of our worst games of the season. We just were a step behind all game. We couldn't connect on our passes, we just missed cutting off their passes and every time we tied the score, they got one right back. It was a tough game to lose, especially since several of our guys skate with the Predators on Monday nights. The picture shows one of the greatest traditions in all sports. No matter what transpires during the game, both teams line up and shake hands afterwards. Most of the post game congratulations centered on seeing the Predators again in the playoffs where this season's tiebreaker will be played.
