Wayne Gretzky lives nearby. I'd offer to go see if he has one laying around and get his signature, but even though I know which house is his, there are a couple large gates, a few security guards and alarm systems between my house and his, not to mention that I don't have his phone number. But, maybe next time I'm there on the course, I'll slice a golf ball into his backyard and see how close I can get . . .

What's the chances of a kid on the street jackin' it from the trash can? I'd post a reward on all the telephone poles.

I can see it now... him, talking "trash" about how famous he is in the Porsche community and boasting about how Ice's decklid was TOTALLY dependent upon him for support.

I like the Gretzky idea. He must have a P-car, or needs to get one. Maybe we can get him in the loop, and he will donate an old stick, or, how about an old lacrosse stick, as a "new era" change?

It is so funny how women accuse us of being insensitive and out of touch, but constantly demonstrate that these traits are not gender specific.

This is easily the best thread I've read in ages

FTR, I've actually seen the stick in person. (Well, at least I think I have - didn't you have it at the show at the dealership on Dufferin last year?)

Yeah, right! Everyone claims to have known "someone" famous before they became "someone" and if you can't produce pics of both of you together, then I call bs! Heck, I helped raise that stick when he was just a sappling

You know what they say .. you not famous untill someone claims they sat next to you in the tree farm.

Actually Christien he never left the garage, He sat in his honoured place between the rake and broom inthe corner of the garage and never left his "post". I was actually going to get the rake and I noticed he was gone.. The dump was closed last night so I am off to there right now to drop off some scrap metal from my Audi exhaust so I will have a look around ... I wonder how he would look on the side of a milk carton ? " missing "

You need to make sure the rake and broom are holding up mentally...it's tough loosing someone after "hanging" with them for so long. I do know of a good broom psychologist, but that rake is such a tool that he probably is beyond help.

Well ya know those guys were kinda jelous given the huge role hockey Stick was playing, especially since getting the car I had hardly used rake or broom at all . . They were being totally ignored as I always reached for hockey stick. You have to wonder if they were saying "psst Mom " " look how tall we are and how short he is ... take him "

I'd paint them suckers green (matching their envy) to teach them a lesson and shame them into behaving. You need to regain control of your garage or the hockey stick is just the beginning...

Are you sure it was your wife's doing, and not the rake and the broom??? AKA the Boys of Summer!
