Gettin' ready for Stampede.

So as you know, I'm not the hugest fan of Stampede. I've trash talked it in the past pretty good. I hated the drunken rowdiness of it. The way the city becomes one big hick town and the way cowboy hats are the new black.

This year however, I kinda have to fall in love with the 10 days of drunken craziness. I mean, I work for the Stampede. I have to be positive about it.

Today at our Staff Rally, we all got in the mood for the 2008 Calgary Stampede. So much in fact, at lunch we purchased cowboy hats and ga-ga'd over the dinner-plate size belt buckles. I even listened to Country 105 on the way home.
