The latest single from Sum 41 is "Pieces" and it's currently receiving plenty of airplay on your local new rock station. The next time you hear it, think about The Cranberries' "Zombie". The music is eerily similar. Did you know The Cranberries released a greatest hits album a couple of
Lamont Bentley was 31. He starred as Hakeem Campbell on the UPN sitcom "Moesha".
US conservative groups are funny. They're always good for a chuckle on a cold Thursday morning. Their latest target is SpongeBob Squarepants who they claim is corrupting our youth.

James won't be able to read this today, but I'm going to write it anyway. Son, you're three years old today. Sweet Baby James has come and gone and now you're a full-fledged little boy. I love it when you make silly faces and tell me jokes to make me

Periodically CFNY Edge 102 will start to play a tune that they completely ignored when first released. This happened recently when they began playing Eminem's "My Name Is" in the fall. When this happens it's usually a song that would have been regarded as off-genre at the time of release,
The Grey Cup is sacred to Canadians but The Stanley Cup is Canada. In 1919, with the Montreal Canadiens and Seattle Metropolitans tied up in the Stanley Cup final, several players contracted Spanish influenza. When one of those afflicted died, a decision was made to cancel the series. From 1893
I hate reading stories like this. According to the Toronto Star, the CFL is discussing the concept of selling the naming rights to the Grey Cup. Our sacred Grey Cup, apparently, is for sale. I'll be outraged if it becomes the Molson Grey Cup, Tim Hortons Grey Cup or RBC

There is a shortage of sugar-free bubble gum in Toronto. There's plenty of sugar-free gum, but none that was designed to blow a good bubble. I'm looking for the pink stuff, bubble gum as opposed to chewing gum. In the past few weeks I've visited several stores that would carry

In every sport there is a home field advantage, but nowhere is it greater than in the NBA. In the NBA, it's not unusual for a team to dominate at home and stink on the road. Take my Toronto Raptors, for instance. Yesterday the Raptors trailed the New Orleans Hornets
The Maple Leafs are on a mini two game slide after losing their second in as many nights. Jean-Sebastien Aubin proved he's human in a 6-2 butt kicking at the hands of the Admirals last night following a 4-1 loss to the Chicago Wolves on Saturday night. Harold Druken and

"I have no idea to this day what those two Italian ladies were singing about. Truth is, I don't want to know. Some things are best left unsaid. I'd like to think they were singing about something so beautiful, it can't be expressed in words, and makes your heart ache
Down With Love: 3.5 out of 10. This movie tries to be clever by mocking romantic comedies from the 60s. It touches upon every 1960s cliche with the subtlety of a sledgehammer to the head and tops this off with one of the worst endings in the history of
