On the hockey game? Good times eh? That's what I'm talkin about! In Your Face, IN Your Fuckin' Face! man.

140 at a resort? No way. I do not live in a resort town. I live in a small fishing village. Last time I went to one of the big resorts near Cancun the meals there were around $90 a plate for dinner. Beers at the swim up bar in the pool (good place for a swim up bar) were $10 a can, reg. 12oz can. I (we) ate either in our room/condo w/kitchen or went out to a more reasonable restaurant in Play de Carmen. When I checked out the lady thought there was something wrong with my bill, only had tax on it. She called a manager and they talked it over. I asked if there was a problem. The manager stated "the restaurants and bars haven't added your bill and we're trying to find it." He looked shocked when I told him I hadn't eaten or drank anything from the resort. I asked him if he'd pay $10 for one beer and he looked around a bit and shook his head no. I paid my $32 tax for the week and drove home.

As for hockey.. yep in my face, in my fucking face! Like I'm even rooting for one team or the other. Honestly I only invited them for a few games after they found out I get Shaw Direct and begged. But was done with that after stuff like in my face and being knocked off my on couch by a guy screaming "that's icing the puck! WTF!" I honestly don't know what icing the puck is, isn't always on ice?
