Street Hockey....

I wasn't very good, so they used to give me a hard time....so they called me Brettski (ie Gretsky)..I guess because I was very...ummm enthusiastic...this is all before I started to ski

I am a much better (ICE) hockey player now....much better...(OK, maybe a little slower)

EDIT: Which was a LONG time ago...it has since been reduced to just "ski"

I'm a fan of Clint Eastwood movies. Whiteface is in the High Peaks of the ADKs.

High Planes Drifter - took out Planes and put in Peaks.

Pretty obvious, or at least I thought so until someone thought I was a snowboarder living in the MRV. And, no, I don't prefer skiing at Mt Ellen (aka Sugarbush North). If you ever see me on skis it will only be because I had stayed at a Holiday Inn Express. I am, however, a good FOS (friend of skiing).
