Help with separating syslog messages.

Hello Guys...

I am bit new to shell scripting and was looking for help !!

I have got syslog data on a linux server recording log messages from a device.

I need to seperate the data from log to file so that I can push it excell and get a report from that.

Log is in the format below
"
Nov 16 04:02:05 syslogger syslog: klogd startup succeeded
Nov 16 04:02:05 syslogger syslog: syslogd shutdown succeeded
Nov 16 04:02:08 syslogger crond(pam_unix)[28955]: session closed for user root
Nov 16 04:19:49 10.0.3.1 287352 11/16/2008 01:41:12.150 SEV=4 IKE/119 RPT=6730 123.208.8.179 Group [sportsbet] User [munsieg] PHASE 1 COMPLETED
Nov 16 04:20:02 10.0.3.1 287364 11/16/2008 01:41:24.290 SEV=4 IKE/49 RPT=7502 12
3.208.8.179 Group [sportsbet] User [munsieg] Security negotiation complete for
User (munsieg) Responder, Inbound SPI = 0x05347b8f, Outbound SPI = 0x9bd2c940"

Is there a way to separate things in bold from the log and push it to a text or excell file ?

Thanks a lot for the help..!!
