Fourteen Random Photos 1

I don’t have a whole lot to say today, I just feel like taking a break from talking. I took it easy this weekend and had some good sleeps. I’ve posted some recent photos I’ve taken with my camera. A few are from the concert and the rest are pictures of Toronto that I took ...

Twenty Random thoughts 5

1. Last week I bought a car. The only thing I miss about the Jeep is the courtesy wave that other Jeepers give out when they drive by. (Talk to me in the summer and I might have a different opinion).2. Don’t buy expensive-looking speakers from the back of a van. They aren’t worth a ...

Survival Guide for taking a dump at work 2

Memorize these definitions and pooping at work will become a pure pleasure. (Thanks to Frieda for sending this one) ESCAPEE: A fart that slips out while taking a leak at the urinal or forcing poop in a stall. This is usually accompanied by a sudden wave of panic/embarrassment. This is similar to the hot flash ...

Dogs sense sarcasm 1

My dog Mojo took a huge spill tonight. I called her to come to me and she ran full speed ahead toward me on the pavement. Her paw got caught in a sewer drainage and she flipped in the air, landed on her side, and rolled into the curb on the driveway. She got up ...

George Carlin on New Orleans 1

I came across what I think is a ridiculous and insensitive fictional email floating around that claims to be George Carlin speaking about New Orleans. This one really got under my skin. It’s completely ignorant and disrespectful to the hundreds of people who died in New Orleans in the aftermath of hurricane Katrina. Here are ...

One in a million 1

Last night we saw Panic and the Rebel Emergency open for 54-40 at Lee’s Palace. When cousin Tony (He’s not really my cousin, we just call him that) was getting dressed to go out last night, I doubt he had any idea that somebody else at the club would be wearing the exact same shirt ...

Taxi Cab Frustration 1

One of my biggest pet peeves is Taxi Cab drivers who don’t turn their taxi lights off when they have a customer in the car. I’ve always had the understanding that the whole point of a taxi cab having a light on top of their car is to indicate to potential customers whether they are ...

Peeing on ice cubes 3

Sometimes when bars need to dispose of ice cubes, they dump them in the urinals. Nothing is more satisfying than going to a urinal and peeing on a pile of ice cubes. The ice cubes melt really fast, and it’s a good challenge to see how many cubes you can melt in one session.

Panic and the Rebel Emergency in Toronto 1

Panic and the Rebel Emergency are back in town, and they have a few shows coming up in Toronto this month. Come out and see them; I always promise it to be an entertaining show and none of my friends who have seen them have been disappointed yet. Panic and the Rebel Emergency were recently ...

Jim Ralph the whiner

I sent an email to Jeff Marek the Director of Sports Programming on AM640 Toronto Radio. I was sick and tired of Jim Ralph’s complaining during Toronto Maple Leaf games. Hi Jeff, Something has bothered me for a couple years now about Jim Ralph. I had never felt it necessary to mention to anyone, but ...
