No, it isn’t. It’s just loud.

There is a very interesting article in The Economist about the effect of digital technology on the motion picture industry, at the distribution/exhibition end, rather than the more commonly discussed production end. It is well worth a read, but I suspect you will agree that the author has obviously tried too hard in his opening […]

What he said!

A couple of posts ago, I wrote about the Ticats’ lack of discipline and need, first and foremost, to avoid penalties. Steve Milton agrees:

With all the other problems plaguing the rebuilding team, the Cats cannot afford the folly of leading the CFL in penalty yardage.

In just two games, their sins have cost them […]

About the Chaise Planes

This article is about a guy who emulated possibly the greatest aviation pioneer of them all, Lawnchair Larry.

Buried in the article is a little gem that suggests I have some research to do the next time spouse abandons me (and the wireless notebook) in front of a football game on the TV:

Couch, […]

Hammer Couture

In the concrete aisle behind Box H at Ivor Wynne last evening, spouse drew to my attention a young lass wearing a black t-shirt that insisted, in very large lettering, “I HAVE A Ph. D.*” The asterisk naturally led one’s eye to the insignia emblazoned below in a somewhat smaller font, which indicated, “Pretty Huge […]

Free Agent Frenzy

So, that magical midsummer day is over. Okay, maybe not “magical”, but it was Canada Day, so that made it feel kind of special.

July 1st has come and gone and all the pretenders have tried to become contenders by throwing money at a (for the most part, in my opinion) badly over-hyped crop […]

Norwood is Lining one Up…

Game 5 of the Sabres/Rangers series was last night. That game, to me, was an out-and-out thriller that almost got ruined by the number of penalties called. The Sabres seemed a little like sprinters trying to run with bowling shoes on; they just didn’t seem to be able to get going properly in the right […]

So I Guess That Would Be a “No”, Then?

I ended up at this page via one of my daily web stops, The Morning News. The page contains a list of the “10 Greatest Albums of 1981” according to TMN founder Andrew Womack. Since I have oddly enough had a recurring premonition that someone is going to demand to know my opinion on this […]

VT: Another view.

Christopher Hitchens has written an excellent article about the national outpouring of grief in the wake of the Virginia Tech shootings. Maybe even mix and stability I used to any coffee table counter or leather for added color just cut the handles After the circumference of color just cut the end of color to serve […]

I Evolve.

I just had a week off of work, right? So like an idiot, I decide on Sunday – the last day of my vacation – that it’s time for me to take the plunge and get a Playstation 3. It was a little sad packing away my PS2 in a box – that little console […]
