Friday, January 18th, 2008Canada: The Shopping Culture Wars
Hello folks, and Happy New Year!!
I know it’s been a long time since you last got to fall asleep over the drivel I write. Let me make up an excuse;
I am currently residing in the states with my wife as we await the arrival of our first child. I have been terribly busy and my life is […]
The Greatest Christmas Songs You May Never Have Heard
If I were an old Yiddish speaking man from Brooklyn, I’d be saying, “Oy, I know from Christmas songs.” (Or, then again, maybe I wouldn’t.) But in any case, I do know my Christmas songs. I have amassed what I believe to be one of the world’s greatest Christmas song collections. I’m calling my collection […]
Monday, November 12th, 2007A Modest Proposal In Light of Our Poisoned Bay

Nature Fights Back
Nature likes to kick ass.
And I love it when nature does so, it’s funny to me. This sadistic streak is present when I watch those silly police chase video shows, or those most amazing video shows. There’s nothing more satisfying then to see an “extreme” skier break some bones when they go down a ridiculous pass.
Or […]
