Going Out With a Whimper
I’ll admit it, I used to love Zellers in the GTA. They were updated and clean and had great deals on everyday stuff like cleaning products. A couple of them even had restaurants that served cheap weekend breakfasts with a smile. …
In the Bad Books
Or perhaps I should say, purchasing from the bad books section? …
A Night at the Theatre
I love movies, I really do, but a live theatre (pronounced thea-tuh) crowd as a whole is just a step up. It must be because the tickets cost so much more. …
Once a Comic Genius….
…always one. Mike Myers always has been hilarious. As we await the Oscars, this video pokes fun at Hollywood, honours it and makes you laugh out loud all at the same time. Whether you take Sunday’s upcoming spectacle seriously or think it’s all a load of over-hyped hooey, this is for you. Enjoy!

A Partial Review

And How Was Your Weekend?
I don’t think I need to explain much further except to say that it was me and me alone and a very slippery Springbank Drive at 8 am Saturday. I’m just grateful that no one else was involved and that the only casualty was my Xtrail. And I don’t blame the road. I was obviously going too fast for the conditions, even at less than 40 km/hr.

Whitney Houston RIP
