Watched a little of Toronto's city council meeting today. Jesus H Christ what a scary sight - both the politicians and the so called civil service.

God help Toronto.

On the other hand I'm watching Obama's news conference and he looks good - whether he can actually accomplish anything or not he still looks good.

Too bad GM hadn't smelled the coffee 20 years ago. Now the arrogance and incompetence of both management and workers in putting out utter crap for years has caught up with them. Doesn't matter that they now make cars as well as anyone, it's too late baby.

Why the hell would anyone go to Mexico anyway?

Anyone watching Celebrity Apprentice probably threw up watching the Rivers family - talk about losers and old Joan has so much plastic work done she could never be recycled.

Very interesting evening Friday with a group of 78 record collectors at a pre-convention party. Several from the states. Just like a guitar pull each one would play a record and then the next guy would play one - some really interesting older stuff.

Great day Saturday - why not when you can use a chain saw and a reciprocating saw in the same day.

Secret to life - comfortable chair, warm sun, i-pod, beer, and a good cigar.

At the Blue Jays last night - good game - this is an exciting team to watch this year.

B.J. Ryan may have to go - he's hurting more than helping right now. Needs some work somewhere to get his location back. Rios is still an aggravation and the 4 hitter still only has 6 rbis - if they improve and pitching holds could be good year.

Thanks Fallsview for a couple of nice days.

On the way, an accident turned the hour drive into 21/2 hrs, and I began to wonder why two lanes were closed for several hours with 6 OPP sitting in their cruisers and 1 maybe actually investigating.

Rosie DiManno did a job of turning the UN into mincemeat today and rightly so.

Watching Idol last night, I can't understand how anyone lived through Disco, including me.

Happy day - received CIBC mutual statements. I used to think these investment managers were terrific professionals but I now know they are a bunch of high school kids wearing ties and a couple of shaved apes.

Funny how CIBC still paid bonuses.

Having someone manage your money is likely the same feeling you would get in prison when you bend down to pick up the soap in the shower.

What a wonderful surprise when my youngest came for my birthday/retirement. Completely fooled us.

What a hilarious show Cheech and Chong put on at Rama - what a hoot seeing all the old and new stoners in the audience.
