I’m an Apple guy. I have two Macs and three iPods, my business is Mac-based. With that said, I don’t understand how a company with the resources that Microsoft has can produce such a second rate product. Even their website looks cheap when compared to the iPod site.

Last night there was an earthquake in California that measured 5.6 on the Richter Scale.

I saw this image on CNN yesterday and was blown away by the vastness of the area that the fires are engulfing. But it made me wonder: “Are there really that many celebrities?”
Because just about every news broadcast about the people affected by the fires has actually been a story about celebrities affected by the [...]

Today was the final game of the inaugural season for Toronto FC. We had the good fortune to attend a number of the games and we are totally hooked! The atmosphere at BMO Field is electric. We’ve signed up on the waiting list for season tickets. My fingers are crossed that a pair of tickets [...]
It started yesterday. On the Spadina streetcar I saw a girl sporting skipping ropes as hair accessories. Two lengths brightly coloured plastic were wrapped neatly around the two small buns on this girls head.
It continued today. Not one, but two girls breezed passed me with 4-inch turquoise combs wedged underneath their [...]
