Things to Do in Yellowknife

With the Summer months quickly approaching, we must take advantage of the much anticipated radiance before the season evades us. So I make a list of ideas for people like me and you to do on summer weekends in the great City of Yellowknife. Until winter comes and fists us.

1) Play kill the tree with the hatchet
"A cathartic blend of leatherface mixed with Daniel Stern from Bushwacked. A delightful treat for the young and wild at heart."

2) Ride a bike
"Live vicariously the life of the Fonz; like only Henry Winkler knows how."

3) Go to 50th Street and hang out
"4 parts goldrange, 3 parts gibberish, 1.5 parts Leisure Cafe, 4 parts corn whisky.....and a dash of crazy lady rubbing her breasts = 1 hell of a good time'

4) Have a BBQ
"Nothing says I love you like a sausage in a bun, but nothing says thats alot of sausage like..... 2 suasages in a bun"

5) Take Photographs of people and/or the landscape
"Some people take pictures because a photo is worth a thousand words. But not if your deaf, dumb and blind."
*On a side note; why did they throw in term 'dumb' with the blind and deaf card. Wasn't their condition bad enough that it didn't warrant being called stupid on top of it. And what if they were really smart inside. Like they were good at chess...but nobody would see it.....however, nobody would be able to teach them chess....nobody would be able to teach them anything. So, in essence, I guess they would be dumb.
**On a further side note: Forget what i just said.

6) Go for a run
"Enjoy the sunshine with a run around old town, and cool down with a walk around Niven Lake trail......Im Hal Johnson...and this is Bodybreak"

7) Search for Bears
"I like Bears....you can find them at the li'bearie'...eating straw'bear'ies...listening to chuck 'bear'ie...really loud which is un'bear'able in a place where people are supposed to 'bear'ly make noise....its just em'bear'assin for the bear to bear all that rudeness"

8) Eat Bugs
"Eat Bugs"

9) Go boating
" Kayak is a type of boat. Kaya was the name of Willows wife. That kid in Willow floated down the river in a wicker basket kind of like a boat. Coincidence.......You tell me!!"

10) Stay inside and write lists on your computer while your roomate watches Deliverance in the next room and you can hear a crazy guy play the banjo, but can't really see it because your sitting around the corner typing.
"?"

11) Eat Cheese
"Got any cheese? - Jaleel White"

12) Play Tennis
"Tennis is good for the following reasons :
a) It keeps you strong
b) It keeps you smart
c) Its good for your body
d) Its good for your heart
e) You can hit stuff

13) Go camping
"Same reason as Number #1"

Outro-----------------------------
Sung in the style of an 80's rapper:
YK FUN RAP
"So if your bored and got nothing to do
Just be the playa' don't be no fool
Grab yo' ticket and take a ride
so read the list and you'll do just fine

Yk activities is the song
Grab your friends and hum along
Camp, chop, eat...what a delight?
Kill that bear..Thats out of Site!!!!"
