So, the buzz around the interweb is that Ford is handing out Ford Focus’s to test drive. I’m wondering why they haven’t asked me?? I don’t get it? I’m good looking, I’m young, I’m a bit of a gear ‘n gadget guy, I have a big commute in the morning, I’m good looking….ummm… It must [...]

Another Icon of our time is down for the count. The socially charged loudmouth that I’ve grown to love is dead at 71. I can’t really think of another comedian that made me laugh the way he did, and at the same time made me think and ponder what was going on around this terrible [...]
Finally! It’s been quite a while since I’ve been inspired to listen to a full album by one of today’s cookie cutter artists (think alexis on fire, et al), but I’ve recently acquired the latest Raconteurs album ‘Consolers of the Lonely’ and I must say – “Job well done boys!”. It’s the first album in [...]
So, I’m listening to the Dean Blundell show this morning and they gave the public a quick overview of the suffering that is the Oil conglomerates. Here you go: BP and Shell – $17 billion combined (7.6B & 9.08B) Esso – $7.5 billion Petro-Canada – $1.08 billion ConocoPhillips – $4.14 billion Now, I’m no analyst…not [...]
Episode 6: Return of the Jedi done! Start time: 9:14pm End time: 11:31pm Thoughts: We’ve done it! We really have! Conrad, Robin, Zoe and I (special mention to Tim, Mike and Michelle)! We’ve done the 6 in one fell swoop! Pats on the back all around!! I think this is definately my favorite. Green chicks, [...]
Episode 5: Empire Strikes Back done! Start time: 7:11pm End time: 9:14pm Thoughts: at 8:30pm it appears that Zoe is examining the inside of her eyelids. Robin followed suit not too much longer. I’m not sure if they actually saw the end of Empire, but they are still troopers nonetheless. We’re almost done now, 1 [...]
Episode 4: A New Hope done! Start time: 5:00pm End time: 7:01pm Thoughts: Can’t get any more bang on 2 hours than that! Noticed that Luke has started using the Whiny side of the Force. The story flowed pretty decent from the new to the old flicks. And finally, Han Solo! The best character in [...]
Episode 3: Revenge of the Sith done! Start time: 2:05pm End time: 4:19pm Thoughts: I think this was my favorite of the first 3. Although, not a fan of the child spoiler. Still, my favorite. Mike and Michelle showed up at around 3:20pm and joined the Marathon for a bit. But I’m sad to say, [...]
Episode 2: Attack of the Clones done! Start time: 11:30am End time: 1:47pm Thoughts: Why do the Clones even have armour? It only takes one shot to kill them anyways. I’m thinking that the Federation could have saved mega-moula on armour and made much meaner weapons…or more Clones. Oh, and Yoda is bad-ass. One casualty [...]
Episode 1: Phantom Menace done! Start time: 9:04am End time: 11:21am Thoughts: Shouldn’t Sam Jackson be saying ‘Motha Fucka’ after every line?
