It was the name of a golf tournament a group friends started years ago. We don't play the tournament anymore but the memories are still great....

Xm The only time I have problems with XM is while driving in downtown Toronto. Maybe it's the tall buildings that block the signal. Also, it seems I lose my signal while driving under bridges in Canada, more often. In my home area I don't have the same problem. In the open areas....no problem.

I was in Montreal 1/14 - 1/17, had a great time. Weather was not too bad. In fact, it was cold from the midwest to the northeast. I was lucky to visit before it got really cold.
