For those of you that haven't noticed, the Spring schedule is starting to fill up thanks to the work of Mike DeSalle. As you can already see, don't expect any namby-pamby kind of D3 schedule. We have some tough opposition lined up, not to mention remaining in the D2 bracket for NERFU, so get off the couch.
Those of you who are fans of Motley Crue (did I spell that right?) will probably know that Vince Neil got himself a make-over, including plastic surgery. And hey, guess what? He looks exactly the same. Check it out here.
Sadly, the catalog of good looking women who have screwed themselves up with plastic surgery is depressingly long. Take Tara Reid, for instance. Once upon a time I woulda walked on hot coals for a night out with Tara. But now what? Alright, true, I still wouldn't climb over Tara to get to any of you ugly bastards, but what did she have to go and do that to her tits for? I hear that these days she likes a drop of the sauce (hence the display), so maybe instead of getting a tatoo when she's drunk like the rest of us, she made a visit to the breast butcher.

Got pictures?
Well, whaddya know? If I haven't gone and figured out how to post pictues with my blogs. All we need know are some pictures of naked chics and we can start charging to come to the site!
So, if you have any pictures of naked women (and not people holding babies), or failing that, of anything to do with the rugby club, go ahead and e-mail me, and I'll see if they're fit for human consumption.
On to club news for early-January, for those of you who don't have a full time job, you can run hills with J-Wil in Pason Park @ 4:30pm on Tuesday. If you want to contact him ahead of time, 751-8029.
Thursday night @ 7pm, there is a club meeting, downstairs at Gritty's. Come prepared for a few drinks and to contribute your ideas about the well-being of the club.
We are potentially in the need of some accomodation for the coming season, so if you have a spare bed, top bunk or recently departed cell-mate, please bring this to Freddy's attention.
Last on the list, Rugger's is offering a 25% break on kit. Just enter the code NY2005 when you check out and then you're down with the discount.
That will be all. As you were.

Aye, Aye Captain
The New Year is almost upon us, and if you hadn't already heard, your training schedule, or lack thereof, is due to J-Wil. In order for the club leadership to accurately assess our strengths and weaknesses for the coming year, they need to know who's up for the coming challenges, and what youre doing to prepare for them.
So, good or bad, Jason would like to know what your doing, fitness-wise. If you're idea of a good workout is popping bon-bons on the couch, or beating off like a red-ass monkey watching the banana channel, then so be it. We don't judge. Just let Jason know if you're in or if you're out.
So, with this being New Year's Eve, or Hogmanay, as they say in Scotland, what better than some verse from the famed Scottish poet, Robert Burns:
And there's a hand, my trusty fere!
And gie's a hand o' thine!
And we'll tak' a right gude-willie waught,
For auld lang syne.
WTF is that all about? Crazy Scottish git.
For those of you staying in tonight, here's a litte something for you to pass the time. Think of it as your own personal banana channel.

New Arrivals
By now you are all probably aware of the arrival of Leo's latest arrival, Thomas Caoullette, and if you were really unlucky you received a picture of a half-naked Leo clutching the poor, defensless babe like some freakish, Anne Geddes nightmare gone wrong. The club is offering group therapy sessions for those still traumatised by this disturbing image.
The Canon's have also welcomed a new addition, who's name as it turns out is Elsie Canon. The first seven times Matt told me her name over the phone today I swear he was saying, "Elfie". While I thought that sounded pretty seasonal, I didn't think it was going to serve the kid too well for the rest of the year. As I said, it turns out it's actually Elsie, which isn't a name I've heard in a while. Not since they ended rationing, leastwise. On the good side though, James has promised not to send us any half naked pictures of himself, unless you ask him nicely. He will however send you some pictures of half-naked women from his collection.
Happy-bloody-Christmas!

Election Fever
As has been the case in recent years, this year’s AGM was attended by only the die-hard politicos and those dumb enough to come outside in weather only fit for staying in to watch the Charlie Brown Christmas Special.
In his last official duties as Club President, Jim Gooch conducted the meeting with all the purpose of a man desperate to quit the job. As many of you already know, the club has been demoted to Division III, and regardless of the wisdom or justice of this, it is a done deal, and not worthy of too much further debate. The consensus of those present was to come together as a club and do our utmost to prove the folly of this decision to NERFU. We will have our first opportunity in the Spring, when the club has elected to compete with the D II sides at the NERFU tourney in Newport. No doubt an appropriate Spring schedule will precede that to ensure that we are up to the task.
Covering Old Business, it was reported that recruitment efforts are continuing on many fronts, excepting the natural holiday hiatus. We are reaching out to many of the local colleges, and Dom Tracey is once again stepping in to the breach to organize the Maine State Collegiate Tournament (see earlier post).
Financially the club did not have the best year, due in large part to some overruns on social events, some unpaid kit bills that finally caught up with us, and the never-ending issue of unpaid. How so many of you malfeasants show up each week and play with a clear conscience is beyond me. Pay your dues goddamit!
As a result the club coffers are a little thin and it is beholden on all of us to ensure that next year brings in some extra cash. 100 commemorative balls have been purchased that celebrate the 35th anniversary of the club, and they would be a splendid addition to your mantle/den/kit bag/jail cell. They are available for purchase for $50 from someone, and I think it is Diesel, but don’t quote me on that.
New Business was minimal, and confined to the subjects of women’s rugby and an over-35 side. Given that several of us have received enquiries about a women’s side, and some of them even from real women, it was agreed that we would try to make a more coordinated effort to put these women in touch with each other and keep them involved with the club to some degree. Perhaps we could organize all-girl sleepovers with mandatory tickle-fights? ……OK, that just set back recruitment for the women’s side by about 20 years. Girls, please understand that I kid, because I love……love too much, usually.
Anyway, where was I? Oh yeah, the over-35 side. While many of you may have thought we were already running an over-35 side (called the A side), this would actually be different, in that it would involve only a 3-4 game schedule that would be more appropriate for players of such a vintage. Of course, these would be played before the A game, for those still looking to get three games in on a Saturday.
Elections were held, with a few notable changes. As mentioned, Jim Gooch stepped down as President to concentrate on his carpentry, but fortunately he had already been grooming a successor in Fred Haymen, who was swept to power in a landslide victory. Also departing was our long-suffering Treasurer, Matt Winch, who has stepped down to concentrate on erasing the memories of his bachelor party and the subsequent re-enactments by Jason Willey. Leo Caullette has stepped up to take the job, and we wish him every success in collecting dues. As many of you know, one of Leo’s most endearing qualities is his soothing voice, and $100 per season seems like a small price to pay for some peace and quiet.
The final roster of officials to be decided on the night were:
Club President – Fred Haymen
Captain – Jason Willey
Secretary – yours truly
Treasurer – Leo Caullette
Fixture Secretary – Mike Desalle
Any other outstanding positions will be decided in secret, without your knowledge, and without your input……What? You don’t like that? Well if it’s OK for Dick Cheney to do it, then you can bloody-well suck it up.
If there is anyone left who I have failed to alienate with this update, then well, you suck too. Happy Christmas/Hannukah/Qwanza/Birthday, Ricky Henderson/Anniversary of your coronation, Emperor Hirohito/launching of the Huygens probe from the Cassini orbiter/ Christmas ceasfire.
