Sunday Morning Musings, I'm A Gleek Edition

Good morning fellow web nerds.

I hope that everyone has made it to Sunday.

It’s a big day here in Toronto as Santa Claus is making his pre-Christmas visit in the annual Parade named for him. Remember that there will be road closures downtown if you had planned on driving anywhere in the city today.

It’s also a big day for football both north and south of the border today as the CFL puts 2 play-off games on the field and the NFL runs its regular full schedule. I’m predisposed to cheer for the B.C. Lions in the early game, only because it’s really hard for me to even think about cheering for the Hamilton Tiger Cats. They’ve come a long way and are in the play-offs for the first time in 5 years, but that doesn’t make it okay. Arrrrrrrrrrgooooooooooooos!

Because I’m a huge geek I’m sitting here rocking Glee songs on YouTube whilst I write today. I love the arrangements and the harmonies and the fun and really I just love music.

There are some good looking moustaches out there as we hit the half way point of Movember. I hope that every time you see one you are reminded that they are (for the most part) being grown for a good cause. Prostate cancer is a mean bastard and the only way to beat it is through education, early detection and treatment. The more we learn about it the better equipped we’ll be to take control of it for good.


Sports quick fire

-The Maple Leafs dropped their game to the Flames last night despite out shooting the Calgary squad handily.

-Les Canadiens lost in embarrassing fashion in Nashville as they were out shot by what seemed like 100 shots. Carey Price stopped a record tying 53 pucks and was still saddled with a 2-0 loss. Le boo.

-The Raptors tip-off against Canadian hero Steve Nash tonight in Phoenix in what should be a very high scoring game. At last check these were the highest scoring teams in the Eastern and Western conferences respectfully.

-It’s free agent season in baseball and I’m just as excited as I am during the regular season. Let’s see if A.A. can do anything in his first winter as the GM in Toronto.


I’m thinking about stringing the Christmas lights around the apt now that we’ve hit November 15th. That has always been a good date for decoration starting in my books.

Also, my ‘mo isn’t so intimidating with glasses and a shirt and tie. I think I need to change into a leather jacket and jeans later.

I think we’ll call it a day here folks. Time to get some work done.

Like wham!
