The last time I added new videos to Videos was Mother's Day, so it was only fair I add new videos today. Three new videos of James are now being shared in Videos. One controversial clip shows him shooting up while another shows James making some interesting breakfast requests and
I find myself awaking in a cold sweat for fear the Conservatives may actually win our federal election. Recent Liberal scandals and mismanagement have many looking at the Conservative Party as a way to send a message and teach the Liberal Party a lesson. I fully understand this unwillingness to

I voted tonight. The election is actually June 28th, but tonight was an advance voting night. I'm not sure what my slo-pitch schedule will look like on June 28th and I wanted to fulfill my civic duty. Sitting behind that cardboard barrier with by ballot in hand I knew what
I threatened to change the Pictures page now that I have a digital camera and I've just delivered as promised. The Pictures page now has a caption beside each image. I've also added a picture taken last night and another taken moments ago. What are you waiting for? Get to

The alternative charts are anything but alternative these days. When is the top 50 selling alternative albums in Canada compiled from a national sample of retail store and mass merchants' reports collected, compiled, and provided by Nielsen SoundScan not really the top 50 selling alternative albums in Canada compiled from

I took a few shots with my new Olympus Stylus 410 I'm now sharing in Pictures. As soon as I have a little spare time I'm redesigning the Pictures page since I'll be sharing a great deal more now. You'll probably find I share less video and more pictures. And
I have a few random sports thoughts to share this morning. The Dominator is heading out of Detroit and will be looking for a new home next season. It's looking like he might end up a Senator. This doesn't scare me in the least. As awesome a goalie as Dominik
The Tragically Hip are playing a club show June 29th at The Mod Club in Toronto. As a Hip Club member, I have the password and link to purchase tickets tomorrow morning at 10:00 EST. Since The Hip asked me nicely not to share this information with you non
Daily visitors should be aware that three entries from last night magically disappeared this morning before reappearing tonight. If you just read down to the last entry you read previously, you may miss all the excitement. The disappearing/reappearing entries were this one about our false alarm last night, this
Stephen Harper is publicly saying his Conservative Party will win a majority government on June 28. I'd call that wishful thinking. Everything I've read regarding polls and predictions tell me it's neck and neck. Folks, we have a nail biter on our hands. Harper's Conservative Party and Paul Martin's Liberal
It seems like just yesterday all of Canada was in a huff about Triumph the Comic Insult Dog's appearance on Late Night with Conan O'Brien. Triumph did what he does and roasted French-Canadians in his typical blunt and vulgar fashion. I attended the taping of this infamous episode, and was
The CFL season has kicked off and the Toronto Argonauts are already 1-0 after beating the visiting Saskatchewan Roughriders 21-10. I'm not the world's biggest CFL fan but I'm glad the league exists and I wish our Argos well each season. I'll even watch an Argos game on television if
I share an MP3 from my collection every Wednesday. You have one week to grab this weeks MP3. Please right-click your mouse and select "Save target as..." so you can download it to your PC before playing. Metric - Combat Baby There's a method to my madness this week. I
Anyone is welcome to submit a Guest Blog Entry to torontomike.com. I received the following submission earlier today. Ok Mike I would expect better from you, Your Simpsons expose has the wrong picture for the Simpsons season 3 and the price your quote, "Nobody has that (price), Not even
I was looking forward to a relaxing night at home. We had Italian sausages ready for the BBQ and it was my first open night in a while. Nothing was going to ruin this night of peace, right? Wrong. Very pregnant Taryn started feeling a tightening in her stomach that
It's tragic what is happening to The Ramones. Within the past few years Joey Ramone died of lymphatic cancer and Dee Dee Ramone died from a drug overdose. Now Johnny Ramone is losing his battle with cancer. In the 1970s, The Ramones were punk pioneers, paving the way for bands
There has never been an official Pearl Jam acoustic release. Every Pearl Jam fan has a bootleg of their awesome MTV Unplugged performance from 12 years ago, but for whatever reason it was never released as an album. Eddie and the boys unplugged produced a simply awesome sound. Pearl Jam
The 104th U.S. Open tees off tomorrow from Shinnecock Hills Golf Club in Southhampton, New York. I've entered a pool at work in which I own a group of three golfers. If my group of three all make the cut and shoot the lowest combined score, I win. Much
Gmail's 1GB of space is pretty awesome and sure beats the snot out of Hotmail's 2MB and Yahoo!'s 4MB. Today, Yahoo! struck back. They're boosting their free account size from 4MB to 100MB effective today. The hope is 100MB will be enough to stop Yahoo! users from making the
Season Four of The Simpsons very well may be the best season of all. How can you argue against the season that brought us "A Streetcar Named Marge", "Homer The Heretic", "Homer's Triple Bypass" and "Last Exit to Springfield". Not to mention "Marge vs. The Monorail", "Lisa The Beauty Queen"
My days of scanning pictures developed from 35mm film are over. I'm going digital. I feel like I've finally emerged from the dark ages. I've wanted a digital camera for a number of years now, but the quality of camera I wanted was never in the budget. Now, thanks to
Back in September, I reminisced about listening to Tom Cheek and Jerry Howarth call Blue Jays games. In October, I revisted the subject when remembering Joe's homer. Nobody does it better than Tom Cheek. In fact, nobody has done it as often either. Until his father's death on June 3rd,
