Song Of The Day: Ready To Go By Republica

The Boston Red Sox often play this song at Fenway Park before the game begins as the managers have the meeting at home plate each night.

Morgan Freeman & Wife Headed For Divorce

This has not been a good week for Mr. Freeman..........

Just four days after a scary vehicle-flipping, surgery-requiring crash comes news that the 71-year-old Oscar winner is engaged in a "divorce action" with his wife of 24 years, Myrna Colley-Lee.

Song Of The Day: Body In A Box By Dallas Green of City and Colour

The song lyrics speak to me.....they are about the day you die turning out to be the best day of your life. “We celebrate the lives of the dead like the man’s best party only happens when he dies.”

RIP: Bernie Mac

Bernie Mac’s publicist is saying today that the 50-year-old actor and comedian passed away early this morning after complications due to pneumonia.

This Cracked Me Up

"You can wear big earings!" So awesome.

Song Of The Day: Afternoons & Coffeespoons By Crash Test Dummies

Great lyrics grom this Manitobia group.

Someday I'll have... a disappearing hairline
Someday I'll wear... pyjamas in the daytime

Afternoons will be measured out
Measured out, measured with
Coffeespoons
and T.S. Eliot...

Think Before You Jump

My friend Sue sent along this gem and I thought it was so fitting as the masses are jumping on the on the bandwagon to save the world.

Song Of The Day: Time to Pretend By MGMT

I have been loving this song and heard it during the film "21" the other night. The movie was awesome and the tune superb. This is not the original video but I like.

Interesting Poster

My Thoughts On BB10

Holy bunch of Hotheads......April is mad at Libra, Keesha and Libra both have a hate on for April, Libra screams at Jessie, Keesha screams at Jessie, Jerry at one point yells at Libra to shut up and Renny then begins raging on Jerry, Michelle at one point begins yelling at absolutely no one (maybe she felt left out.)

During this time, Dan is lying on the couch reading the Bible and Memphis is in the living room laughing at everyone while he delivered the best line of the night ("This is why you put all these women over 30 in the house America. Because they’ll go crazy”), Ollie seems to have lost his voice as he stands silent in the corner and Keesha asks, “Isn’t anyone going to sing Happy Birthday to me?” prompting, the saddest Happy Birthday song ever sung. After they sing, everyone falls into a stunned silence, and then Libra shouts, “Anyone want cake?”

At this point I’m thinking my Big Brother Pal Susan must be in her glory watching all these hamsters self destruct.

Keesha reminds me of a black widow spider the way she sucks up to the men.......one at a time.

Is it me or is Aprils hairline receding each episode?

Nice work on Dans part as Americas Player. He was able to get Jessie to hug him for a full 17 seconds. I was cracking up.

The venom continues to pour out of the mouths of the houseguests after the Veto Competition.

Michelle is angry that she wins the red leotard and proceeds to call Libra a “whore-slut-skank.” I thought it was a beautiful Hallmark moment as Jessie tried to make her feel better about wearing it... “Your ass looks awesome, I promise.”

The irony of this complete episode is that the reason the fight started in the first place was because April was pissed off that Libra and Jerry would suck in the Veto competition.
Yet the last two people standing in the Veto competition were....... Jerry and Libra.

Song Of The Day: All For You By Sister Hazel

I much prefer the live version here.

Jungle Cat World


































Last week Uncle Jimmy phoned and invited the family to join his clan as they ventured off to Jungle Cat World. I have never been before and it is only a hop, skip and a jump away from where we reside. The day was quite the adventure that you can read about here,
here,
and here.

Dog Face

This is extemely weird but clever.


Flood

A few weeks ago during one of our torrential rainfalls the creek that lays at the top of our our subdivision flooded and the spill off ran down our street. It reminded me of the days when I lived in Maracaibo and after their high volume rainfalls you would often see kids floating down the streets on rafts and such.

Toronto





























































Over the weekend Garth and I took the girls into the city for an overnight. We stayed at the Sheraton Centre on Queen Street West and had a great view of Nathans Phillip Square, City Hall and other places of interest. We shopped, and shopped, swam, and dined to out hearts content. Garth was very excited to see that Pottery Barn Kids is selling Star Wars Linen and he pointed out that they even come in Queen. This might be a good birthday idea.
