United 93: 8 out of 10. Wow. For 111 minutes you don't feel like you're watching a movie, but a documentary. The acting by unrecognizable actors is so natural you feel you're there on September 11 as United 93 prepares to take off. Even though we all know how this

With the New York Rangers eliminated, poor Pops becomes the first poolie to lose every single one of his ten players. This guarantees Pops will finish dead last. On the other end of the spectrum, Ryan is looking uncatchable. In fact, I've giving Ryan the coin right now. For the
My 5k race is next Saturday, but I'm running a mock 5k race as soon as Thursday. It's time I start thinking about a strong running playlist. I'll make the mix twenty songs long, and I'll pick the twenty tunes from this list of songs in my collection featuring the
In response to this entry about Alpha-Getti and Zoodles, Kara commented that she had a can of Zoodles with a palm tree on the label that resembled a penis. She was nice enough to scan it and share it. Without a doubt, that palm tree is both twig and berries.
Ottawa is in the final four. One more series win, and they're playing for the cup. Not only does this kill my chance of winning the pool, but it greatly upsets me personally as a life long Leafs fan. The Sabres should beat the Rangers and they'll give the Sens
Another slo-pitch season is upon us, but this time things are different on Raging Storm. This time, I'm managing the team. Raging Storm, you know the drill. I'm a Web 2.0 manager. Everything is communicated via email and all pertinent information is shared at http://www.torontomike.com/softball.
Barry Bonds hit his 744th career home run today, moving within 11 of Hank Aaron's record of 755. Just for fun, let's take a look at Barry Bonds circa 1986. Now, as an interesting comparative study, let's look at Barry Bonds circa 2001. Discuss amongst yourselves...
Heinz bought Libby's about a decade ago, which means Heinz owns both the Alpha-Getti brand of canned pasta and Zoodles. I used to work in a grocery store, and I used to do all the grocery shopping. At some point about five or six years ago, Taryn became the primary
This is Michelle's latest masterpiece. I'm incredibly biased and incredibly impressed. It's the best thing I've seen since this.
The Sabres stunned the Rangers, which is good, and allow me to explain why. Ottawa will likely beat the Devils and advance to the conference finals. We're rooting for ABO, and that means we need the best team in the conference to be the opposition. Buffalo is now my team
"Extended warranty? How could I lose?"
It's half time, and the Raptors are up 46-43 in New Jersey. Not only is T.J. Ford playing, but he's 6-7 for 13 points in nine minutes. That's awesome. James and I watched the first half together, but I just put him to bed, so I'm going to have
With mighty Microsoft badly losing the online search and services battle to Google, they're pursuing Yahoo!. Although I've pretty well migrated all my Yahoo! stuff to Google, I have fond memories of Yahoo! I shared in this entry. Yahoo! was Google before Google was Google, and we shouldn't forget that.

As we prepare for game #6 in the swamp, let's listen in on a moment from Tuesday night's big win. I'm giving this a chill factor of 8.1. Thanks to Kic for bringing this to my attention. Kic, I'll see you on the field. Don't forget those discs.
Now that Humble Howard has discovered Gtalk, we've had some deep, intellectual discussions via this progressive communications tool. Last night, we chatted. Here's the transcript. It's pretty raw, and quite revealing, so consider yourselves warned. 8:00 PM Toronto Mike: you got gill deacon cancelled! 8:16 PM Howard: eat
Vancouver never seemed to find their groove. I didn't see a lot of their games, but from what I saw they were lucky to make it this far. Everyone picked the Ducks to blow them out, and that's eventually what happened. It was an easy pool update. Except for a
Gordon Scott was 80. He was the "intelligent and nice" Tarzan in 1950s movies.

Speaking of Muppets, this is gold. Pure freakin' gold. I ♥ Pulp Fiction, The Muppets and YouTube.
This clip has been making the rounds this week. It's old-school Sesame Street with Cookie Monster eating a computer. It's funny and all, but this Cookie Monster is quite different from the Cookie Monster I grew up with. There are two significant differences: This Cookie Monster has sharp lookin' teethThis
I'm not going to write about the whole Shane Doan controversy that has erupted in our esteemed House of Commons. A parliamentary committee has summoned Hockey Canada officials to explain their choice of Shane Doan as captain of the national team at the World Hockey Championship. At issue is an
Ryan is rolling right along, getting points from the Senators and Red Wings. More important for him, those two teams won last night. The smart money is on Ryan finishing first. When Ryan wins, we all win. Dude needs the coin. For the rest of the story, visit http://www.
