Wake me up.... when September ennnnddddsssss.... I want to know what you're thinking. Tell me what's on your mind.  I'm off to see the mechanic, which isn't nearly as fun as seeing the dentist, but I'll be in and out throughout the day.

It's September 21, and this weather I've come back to leaves much to be desired. Where's that warm sun I left? I'm sure you have a lot on your mind.  So if you do, dump it here.  And if you don't, lurk away!

I'm posting this Open Mike from Amsterdam, looking forward to visiting Dublin this weekend.  If you have any travel tips for Dublin, I'd love to read about them in the comments. You can also let me know what's happening back home in Toronto.  A glance at my Twitter feed tells

I'm off to Paris, Amsterdam and Dublin.  I'll likely post a few times from across the pond, but this is where I'll need you all to tell me what I missed. In addition to sharing anything that's on your mind, track what's making news in Toronto, which celebrities have passed

I graduated from University in '98.  That's 14 years ago, but still I feel dread during Labour Day long weekend.  I'm wired to prepare myself for back to school, despite the fact I haven't had to go back to school in well over a decade. What's on your mind?  This

I'm back from camping at Pinery Provincial Park.  The weather was amazing and a great time was had by all.  I think it's my longest period of no Internet access since the mid-90s. I'm just catching up on the news and learnt Phyllis Diller died.  Only the good die young.

I worked at the CNE for three summers as a teen, so opening day always brings back a tonne of memories. Share your Ex memories, or not... you can write about anything you want here.  Rants are particularly welcome. If you have a question, I'll drop by throughout the day

Or do we call is Simcoe Day?  I'm pretty sure it's not a Civic holiday as much as it's Simcoe Day around these parts.  Either way, most of us get Monday off, and that's a good thing. Write here about anything you want, and if you have a question, I'll

My nephew's birthday party is tomorrow and my daughter's is Sunday.  They're both turning 8.  By the age of 8, John Updike wrote his first story, which began: "The tribe of Bum-Bums looked very solemn as they sat around their cosy cave fire." Oh... and the Olympics begin this afternoon.

I took the kids to see The Amazing Spider-Man last night.  It was great, and we all loved it.  Sometimes, reboots work. Surely you know the deal by now.  Write about anything you want, and if you have a question, I'll drop by throughout the day to answer you.

It's the dog days of summer, so it's time for you to do the heavy lifting around here.  Be interesting, be funny, be content! And if you have a question, I'll drop by throughout the day to answer you.

I'm planning to start a podcast.  30 minutes a week or so... using the Humble and Fred studio in beautiful downtown Etobicoke.  This is a great place to tell me what you think of the idea, if you'd listen, or warn me to walk away and never look back. And

I love a long weekend, especially the Canada Day long weekend. Nothing says Canada Day like uncensored on-line communication.  I stand by my record: 41316 comments and only two deletions. You know the drill, discuss anything you want in this space.  And if you have a question, I'll drop by

Would it bother you if I told you this heat wave didn't really bother me? It seems a number of you hate it, but I haven't really noticed anything different except that I sweat more when I bike / walk / play ball.  I just drink more water to make sure I

Sunday is Father's Day.  I can't wait to see what crap the kids made me this year! You know the drill, discuss anything you want in this space.  And if you have a question, I'll drop by throughout the day to answer you. And Bob Loblaw... be nice!

Sports fans will be happy with this weekend.  Here's hoping the Celtics beat the Heat and Ireland wins Euro 2012. Feel free to discuss the Euro, NBA, NHL or skip right over to the Toronto council's decision to ban plastic bags from stores in 2013.  I happen to like the

It's been a bizarre week of news.  Talk about it, or anything you want.  The frivolous is more than welcome. In fact, the frivolous is what we need.  Bring on the frivolous! If you have a question, I'll drop by throughout the day to answer.

We're hitting 30° today, people.  30°... and that's Celsius, my American friends. But if I hear one of you complain about the heat I'm gonna lose it on you in the comments.  Consider yourselves warned. You know the drill, discuss anything you want in this space.  And if you have

Are we still calling Monday Victoria Day?  Can we please rename it Terry Fox Day? By any name, a long weekend full of 20-something highs sure smells sweet.  Bring it on. You know the drill, discuss anything you want in this space.  And if you have a question, I'll drop

I haven't seen The Avengers yet, but I'll bet you have.  I hear it's pretty good, but it can't possibly be as good as this Open Mike. It was a quieter week in the city.  Our mayor didn't mug a single reporter, the 2nd round of the NHL playoffs is

May the Fourth be with you.  On this fine Star Wars Day, let's have some good, clean fun with an Open Mike. Discuss anything you want.  And if you have a question, I'll drop by throughout the day to answer questions.

It's 4/20, and whether you partake or not, this is a good place to blow your smoke. What's on your mind?

It's April, the NHL playoffs are underway, the cherry blossoms in High Park are blooming and North Korea is trying to launch a long-range missile. What's on your mind?

As March roars to a close and April beckons, let's talk about.... anything, so long as it's not hockey related.  Hockey comments can go here. You may, however, discuss the Blue Jays... or the budget... or the weather.  Go nuts.

Labhair faoi rud ar bith agat le do thoil. Mbaineann an spás a thabhairt duit. What's on your mind this warm St. Patrick's Day weekend?
