March 13th, 2005 at age three years and a week shy of two months. That's when James got his first actual haircut by a professional. Here's a picture I secured of this monumental event. The plan was for the two of us to make it until May but neither of
I posted my torontomike.com Interview with Custom last month but I conducted a second interview with him for Smells Like Sour. Here it is in case you missed it over there. Q: What do you think of "illegal" music downloads and the lawsuits by the RIAA against music fans
Periodically I like to check in on 17-year-old phenom Sidney Crosby and see how he's doing in the Quebec Major Junior Hockey League. On Friday night, Crosby put on a clinic scoring three goals and adding four assists. Crosby's seven-point night lifted his league-leading point-total to 152. Last night, Crosby
The Leafs own the Edmonton Road Runners. St. John's has won all eight games against the Road Runners this season, seven of them by just one goal. One of the games was decided in overtime and three others in a shootout, including this one. Mikael Tellqvist and the Leafs have

A couple of months ago I wrote about my search for sugar free bubble gum. A couple of days ago, I visited our local Wal*Mart to pick up a few items. As always when I visit a Wal*Mart, I paid a visit to the gum rack hoping the
Les Triplettes de Belleville: 7.5 out of 10. Finally, a good movie. "Les Triplettes de Belleville" was a pleasure to watch and a pleasure to listen to. What's amazing is the fact there's virtually no dialogue and this only adds to the tone. James would concur. It's quirky, funny

What's in a name? That which we call a rose by any other name would smell as sweet. If Bill Shakespeare were blogging today, he'd be asking what's in a domain name. Who can blame him? Securing the proper domain name for your site is half the battle. Today we
Scooby Doo 2: Monsters Unleashed: 2.5 out of 10. I wanted to give this craptacular film a 1.5 but James seemed to like the idea of a talking dog. Unfortunately, this movie was just too dumb to retain his attention for 93 minutes. Last night I watched "Starsky

The San Diego Chargers have released quarterback Doug Flutie. This may mark the end of the 42 year old's career. I only own one football jersey, and that's a #7 Buffalo Bills Doug Flutie. There were so many reasons to root for the diminutive quarterback. There's the hail mary pass
Starsky & Hutch: 4.5 out of 10. Ben Stiller and Owen Wilson show up in some funny flicks. Not this time though. "Starsky & Hutch" was a comedy that's completely void of any comedic instances. It's as if the writers forgot the jokes completely. What a waste of a

Have you seen the cover of Sports Illustrated this week? It features Frank Catalanotto, Vernon Wells and Reed Johnson of your Toronto Blue Jays. Great, that's just what we needed. The Sports Illustrated cover jinx is legendary. As if having the Red Sox and Yankees in our division wasn't enough.
