Google and I have kissed and made up following our little tiff the other day. Now that we're buddies again, I'm back singing their praises. The tutorial below from Google shows how you can increase productivity by adopting Google Apps for your business or organization. The package they're selling isn't
I really don't know these country artists that were featured on AI last night. I had to ask Taryn who the heck Martina McBride was and why she deserved to follow in the footsteps of the great Kenny Rogers. Other than the Bonnie Raitt tune, I was out of my

Joe and Pops had huge nights thanks to four points from Jagr and Nylander in the Rangers 7-0 win. The Thrashers season could end tonight which will cause Alexi some pain. For the current standings, visit http://www.torontomike.com/2007hockeypool.html.
Check out this footage from the Red Sox and Angels game. You'll see a poor bastard getting hit by a slice of pizza thrown at him by an angry fan. It's graphic, so consider yourself warned. I could write a killer entry about the time I had a slice of
We just ran for five minutes followed by one minute of walking. We did this for about 3km. This week six synopsis is about gear and tunes. Gear: You can tell the semi-pro runners by their gear. They have those running pants and the proper attire, but it looks worn.
Let the armchair psychoanalysis begin. The Virginia Tech shooter has a name and factoids about Cho Seung-Hui are starting to filter in. We're learning he was quiet and disturbed. Evidence of his disturbed nature comes from accusations he set fire to his dorm, stalked women on campus and wrote alarming

Those who drafted members of the dynamic Tampa Bay Lightning trio did well for themselves last night. Alvin's got the lead but Ryan's nipping at his heels. I'm tied in third with Joe who was my best friend in Junior Kindergarten. This time, it's war. For the current standings, visit
Michelle likes me to read her the same Bear in the Big Blue House book every night before she goes to sleep. It's a book about going sleep and I've added an interactive element to the story. I ask her a question after reading each page. Did you have a
In 2007, the ideal form of communication with university students is email. People of that generation are always connected, even when out and about they're receiving email on their cell phone, Blackberry or other PDA. If you need to share time sensitive email with a large group of students, send
The deadliest school attack in U.S. history took place this morning at Virginia Tech. At the time of this writing 22 are dead, but it sounds like that number will rise. We don't yet know the name of the shooter, but I'm going to jump to the conclusion it's
The Toronto Raptors are the only franchise I care about that I've followed since game one. I don't remember the first few Blue Jays seasons and the Leafs and Argos have been around since well before I was born. The Raptors, however, played their first game in 1995 and I've
Gaetan Duchesne was 44. He played 1028 NHL games for the Washington Capitals, Quebec Nordiques, Minnesota North Stars, San Jose Sharks and Florida Panthers.
Those damn Sens won last night. C'mon Pens, kick it up a notch. I'm hoping this series goes seven and the Senators choke in typical Ottawa fashion. In the pool, I've been surpassed by Alvin and Ryan, the only two poolies who drafted ahead of me. Coincidence? Of course it
In the mid-80s, I loved WWF wrestling. Rowdy Roddy Piper was my favourite and I watched weekly. I even went to a couple of live events, including Hulkamania at Exhibition Stadium. As a fan, I loved The Wrestling Album, which I owned on cassette. That cassette tape bit the dust
I've known my younger brother Steve for all of his life, but until very recently, I didn't know his name. I'm not alone, our own mother didn't know his name either. In fact, Steve didn't know his own name. It turns out Steve's middle name is not what we thought
Thanks to Bob and Doug McKenzie, we Canadians have always been associated with the expression "eh?". Truth be told, I never say "eh" unless I'm intentionally saying it to fulfil the expectations of the stereotype. We're supposed to say it, so I'll say it for effect. I never say it
Nobody is running away with the pool this year, at least not yet. I'm tied in first with Alvin but we're only a couple of points ahead of Ry. My New Jersey players have been stellar thus far, but they have to advance for me to have shot. A Canucks
I've added 348 new CDs to my MP3 collection. That's no typo. You can understand why I'm not about to list the new additions. That's 1623 complete albums, 24605 individual songs and 66 days worth of uninterrupted tunes. Check it out.
Don Ho was 76. He entertained tourists for decades wearing raspberry-tinted sunglasses and singing the catchy signature tune "Tiny Bubbles."
For the second straight year, I'm watching the first round of the Stanley Cup playoffs without an emotional interest. My team isn't there, so it's relaxed viewing. I usually root for teams with players I drafted in the pool. This afternoon I caught the last two periods of the Ottawa
