Herbivores beat Carnivores
Here's a couple of shots from the Chicago Bulls vs Toronto Raptors NBA game I went to, actually, one of these is a very short YouTube clip showing the Air Canada Centre. The ACC is host to the NBA, the NHL (ice hockey) and is the venue I was at last month for The Who concert.
It's a pretty big place, seats around 20K ppl I think, a little bigger than the Tennis Centre back home. Sadly for the Raptors their best player has been out for over 6 games with an injury so they were beaten in the last quarter pretty easily. Finally Jo's Xmas present from me arrived. I'd been trolling eBay for about 10 weeks to try to buy Jo a Canon digital SLR, the EOS 30D, and hadn't seen one go for the type of money I was hoping to pay. Then, just before Xmas a dealer demo model came up and I started bidding. The auction ended at 21:00 Xmas Eve and I don't know if that worked in my favour but I got the camera for about 65% of the normal retail and didn't really have to fight too hard to get it, loving that. So now Jo is in the digital photography age, maybe she should sell her film cameras on eBay :-).
