  1. As an aside, I highly recommend "Pacific Rim" if you're in Burlington looking for Thai. It's just off the square, one block East of Church St. (which makes it not entirely convenient if you're staying out by Higher Ground). My girlfriend lived in Burlington for 5 years and swears by it. After having it once I could see why.
  2. Funny that there's no NYC date. Sure, he gets pretty close, but I would think on a tour of this magnitude he would go back to where it all started.
  3. Cheers, Bouche. Hope you have a great day and a better year.
  4. I thought that was some of his weaker work, actually. Yhe fat/virgin/masturbation jokes got old quickly, and he seemed to have all of the creativity of the grade four class bully. I was expecting something as funny as when he was in the lineup for Star Wars tickets (which seems to have been taken off YouTube), but not so much. As an aside, I had always hoped that he would do something on Phish lot. That has some serious potential for Triumph.
  5. Westboro Beach is a nice one, and with the close proximity to Richmond Rd. you can tie in some quality eating or unique shopping while you're there.
  6. Hope it's a great one, Phorbsie, and that our paths cross one of these days. Here's to a great year ahead for you.
  7. Happy Belated, Lungzo! (Luke/Kung/Zero...I'm so clever). Here's hoping it was a good one for you.
  8. Happy Birthday, Cap'n! Hope it's a great one.
  9. Funny, he was the first show at Scotiabank Place, too. Of course, it was called The Palladium then.
  10. If you have a problem, if no one else can help and if you can find them, maybe you can hire...
  11. That was the first one that came to my mind, although the more I think about it I'm glad it ended when it did. I feel that by the third season they were starting to reach a little too much (ie with the whole Rita/MRF plotline) and I don't know how much longer the characters could have seemed as fresh and funny as they were. I'm bummed that there is such a finite number of episodes to watch on DVD, although there's so much to each episode that the show lends itself nicely to repeat viewing. Having said that, I'm hoping we get that AD movie sooner rather than later.
  12. 349. Songs mentioning baked goods 1. The Muffin Man - Frank Zappa 2. Cookie Monster - C is for Cookie 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. 10. 11. 12. (And yes, that is on an official release of Sesame Street music).
  13. While I may not agree with the sentiment, I can't believe not one person in this whole thread has quoted this: I think it's laughable that this band, whom Don Henley described a few years ago as more like CEOs than rock stars, still considers itself relevant. Added to that is the fact that they purport to espouse lefty politics, yet made their most recent album available exclusively at Wal-Mart and I have a very hard time respecting them. It's tough to deny their influence and legacy, but with the current spectacle they tour with they have become little more than the world's greatest Eagles' cover band.
  14. Right on! (And you've gotta love those good Nepean boys!)
  15. It will look amazing for the sequences done in IMAX. This is what IMAX.com says: http://www.imax.com/ImaxWeb/filmDetail.do?type=comingSoon&movieID=code__.__448 THE DARK KNIGHT: THE IMAX EXPERIENCE' date=' from Warner Bros. Pictures, will feature six sequences filmed with IMAX® cameras. This marks the first time ever that a major feature film has been even partially shot using IMAX cameras, marking a revolutionary integration of the two film formats. [/quote'] I could tell watching it which scenes were shot in IMAX (or at least which scenes would look coolest in IMAX) and I think it would be well worth the trip to one of the big(ger) screens for it.
  16. I came out of the theater last night and said to my friends "Wow, that was everything a summer movie should be." I haven't seen all of the Batman movies, but this one was incredibly entertaining and has to be among the best. Really well done all-around, and the way the Joker makes a pencil disappear will stick with you.
  17. Grateful Dead, 5/4/77, Palladium, New York City. I'm sure there are better versions of "Brown Eyed Women" out there, but I don't know that I've ever heard one. What a rippin' five-minute rock and roll song. Link
  18. Hallowe'en one year at university, one of my friend's sisters came for a visit. She was dressed as pregnant trailer trash and was working on a healthy buzz when another girl approached her and asked her very seriously if she really thought she should be drinking in her condition. It was a bona fide Abbott and Costello moment for a little while, as the girl in the costume had no idea what the other one was talking about. Pretty funny stuff.
  19. DtB...not to be confused with DTB, DBT or tDB. Got that?
  20. Yeah, they always post the maximum sentence in articles like these, but rock star or not nobody ever gets anything close to the maximum sentence for a charge like this on a first offence. I don't know the laws of New York State very well, but I'd be surprised if he does any time at all.
  21. My Dad was there. CFRA was giving away tickets at the Ex one morning and my Dad didn't get a chance to listen in. He saw the DJ (I believe it was Ken Grant), whom he knew, on the street later that day and said that he was disappointed he didn't get the chance to win the tickets. The DJs response? "Oh my God, I totally forgot to give them away. Do you want them?" And my old man and his brother got to witness history.
  22. So is he charged with one count of being in a jurisdiction where cops have too much time on their hands?
