  1. Are you kidding? I hate the Three Asshole Amigos more than life itself: Harper, Flaherty and that fathead fucker Baird.
  2. It tells you who the favourite is and to vote accordingly as long as your vote is against the Conservative Party candidate.
  3. That's not necessarily true Mike. The site lists key areas as well as encourages people to strategic-vote, i.e., don't waste your Green (leftist) vote in tight ridings with Conservatives.
  4. Here's a recycled joke but I laughed hard when I heard it. That movie should be called Forgetting Jason Segel's Penis. I haven't heard that one.
  5. Whether for good or bad reasons, Canadians have had hands in many outcomes of playoffs so far. How about Russell Martin for the Dodgers. I hate that team almost as much as the Red Sox, but he's a keeper. I hope all our good young Major Leaguers play for Canada in the upcoming World Baseball Classic.
  6. I haven't watched too many new films since the fall TV season started, but I rather liked Forgetting Sarah Marshall. It's a pretty funny, bawdy romantic comedy (a genre I like - more with classic movies though). Anyway, I think Sarah Marshall is a better film than other Judd Apatow-related comedies like Knocked Up and Superbad (maybe not funnier than the latter, but better all-round). The best of the bunch is still The 40-Year Old Virgin, by a healthy margin.
  7. When I was in Boston a few years ago, the only unsavoury area I found was around Fenway Park. I was in the "Combat Zone", but it wasn't too bad; they've cleaned that area up and it's close to their Chinatown is located, which is the 3rd largest in North America. Boston is a great town and it's becoming more walkable since The Dig.
  8. Carl Lewis' version remains the greatest rendition of any anthem ever sung worldwide. Couldn't happen to a nicer guy.
  9. For the major networks, you can just go to their websites and look for whatever show you want. Most stream episodes not too long after their original air date.

    Thanksgiving dinner

    It's a good thing I'm not going to my cousin's place or a family friend's house for Thanksgiving where I had to endure some of what was on my list; one time I had Cornish hens with raisin stuffing. Yuck. My mom's a good cook, so dinner will be great, though I can't vouch for my uncle not laying into a political rant during dessert.

    Thanksgiving dinner

    I hope my Thanksgiving dinner doesn't include the following: - raisins and/or nuts in the stuffing/dressing - mashed potatoes too creamy or not whipped enough (unlikely since I kick ass at making mashed potatoes) - not enough gravy - not enough wine - no pie for dessert (pumpkin pie rules) - overcooked turkey - being forced to eat turnip - political talk at the dinner table with my Conservative (re: Reform) uncle
  13. CBS looked bad for sure. Good on them. A streetfighter? He fought kids and drunks to earn his reputation and then he steps into the ring with a light-heavyweight of little note. Fraud maybe a harsh term. How about phoney? Slice ain't no Greg Haugen (who won a few "Toughest Man" competitions in Alaska before switching to boxing). http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Greg_Haugen
  14. ... check out the footage from last night's "fight" on CBS (the article says it all too). Oh yeah, youtube is no place to build your resume. http://sports.espn.go.com/extra/mma/news/story?id=3626929

    Thanksgiving dinner

    Getting up at 1:00pm and after 4 hours of sleep (night-shift) and then hopping in a car and driving to Kingston for Thanksgiving. I'll mash the potatoes, make a fuss out of not eating turnip, have some wine, eat some turkey and then I'll hop in my car and head back to Toronto. I love the holidays, but shift-work not so much.
  16. You can stream both the English (if not now, soon) and the French debates on the CBC's website.
  17. Not surprisingly, Palin hasn't answered any question with specific examples. Her "woodsy" style may fool the foolish, but any American fencesitter with half a brain knows she's full of shit.
  18. I really like May. I agree with almost everything she stands for, but I won't vote Green.
  19. She's deflected almost every question.
  20. FYI, if you have digital cable, there's at least one CBC affiliate replaying the Canadian debate at midnight. CP24 will also replay the Canadian debate at midnight. I'm watching both the US and Canadian debates.
  21. At least in the Toronto area, The Office isn't on tonight. If it is where you are, I'm betting it's a repeat.

    Since you no longer go to Starbucks, consider yourself "saved".

    Egg Salad

    The only time I really like French's is on things like smoked meat sandwiches. Aloha' date=' Brad[/quote'] Exactly, and on hotdogs and hamburgers. Ever had Hunts or No-name mustard on any of the above? Flavoured mayo, I tell you whut.

    Egg Salad

    As store-bought mustards go that aren't sissy off-shoots like dijon etc..., I'll take French's every time.

    Egg Salad

    Second the mustard recommendation. Make it good mustard though like original French's and any of their specialty mustards that are a little spicy. Screw the no-name crap.
