Good morning bat-friends.
Today's the day that I sit at work and count down the hours and minutes until it's time to go and catch my ride to Ottawa.
Good times are ahead on a show string budget. And one of my shoe laces is broken.
Work will distract me. A good day is upon us. I can feel it.
If you're not on Twitter yet btw, get on it... lots going on.
I'm currently listening to a bunch of songs that I've been missing from the 90's. The last few years of the decade really were dominated by female artists. It's fantastic to go back and listen to.
Jake's bday is so close I can taste the cake. Send your best wishes with me.
Much love to a friend whose dad is in recovery mode from a heart attack. Our bigger wishes and prayers are with the family while he gets better.
I'll try and use someone's laptop to update while I'm away.
Have a great weekend, even if you have to work Monday when I'm still off :)
Peace and love and such.
Like wham.

Thursday Morning Musings - I Love Coffee Edition
Good morning kids.
I hope that you're all well.
Isn't it great to be almost done a short week at work? And you know what's even better? I have a short week coming up again!
The countdown is super short now until Ottawa for Jake's bday. I'm jazzed.
The countdown is even shorter for NFL football which kicks off tonight. That's exciting. Very exciting.
I'm also hoping that I made good picks, because winning some of the money in the office pool would be sweet.
Have I mentioned lately how much I love coffee? I should, I love it!
I also love beer, but not at the same time.
And bacon, but bacon goes with everything.
Thumbs down to the Blue Jays for sucking hardcore last night against the Rangers. Not a good game of baseball from the hometown 9.
Thumbs up to less than 1 month before NHL regular season puck drop. Excite!
I hafta get back to it friends, but have a great day.
Also, I'm taking New Orleans over the Vikings tonight.

Tuesday Morning Musings - Where Does The Time Go Edition
Hey y'all.
I hope that your week started well yesterday and that today has been a good day as well.
Happy birthday to Mommy Z today and Step-dad Z yesterday.
I know it's still early to judge the day as a whole. But after 2 cups of coffee and a small sense of relief/ accomplishment at the office I think today is lined up to be a winner.
Right now I'm rocking some internet Country radio courtesy of iTunes and I like it. Judge all you like. It won't change anything.
The countdown is now on until the next trip to Ottawa to see Jake and Romeo and the gang. And, I'm pleased to report that I have booked an extra day off for the weekend. So that's awesome.
If you're in the Ottawa area and want to hang out on the weekend of the 12th let me know here on or Twitter.
I need more Batman books. I know I've said that a lot. But I think it's time to sacrifice some other purchases so that I can make that happen.
Alright, there's a lot going on in the office and on my desktop right now, so I should get to it.
I hope that you all have a rocking day!
Until I speak to you again, be good to one another.
And as always, if you're only here this one day a week, see you next Tuesday.

Monday Morning Musings, Post Weekend Edition
Hola amigos.
I hope that you all had a great little weekend.
Fingers crossed that E-ve didn't get caught in a rainstorm.
There have been some wicked thunder and lightning storms throughout Ontario in the last few days. I wish there had been more in my neighbourhood. If you have any awesome pictures let me know. I'd love to see them.
High fives to my Twitter folks. I missed you guys. I'll be back more often. Even a couple times this morning!
This morning has been a good start to the week. No complaints sitting at the desk. I think that I should have some more coffee.
Getting hyped for Jake's bday and my next visit.
Also hyped that Romeo has found a new place. Good job buddy.
Time to get back to the grind. And to make another cup of coffee.
Have a good day friends.
You deserve it.

Thursday Morning Musings - Almost There Edition
Good morning kids.
We've made it all the way to Thursday already. We're almost to the weekend. Which is awesome because at the new job I actually get weekends off.
Welcome home to E-ve who was in Ottawa for a few days. It seems like things went well.
I have a jonesing to head to Ottawa this weekend to see Jake and Romeo again this weekend. But I think I'm going to hold out for Jake's birthday in a few weeks. It's coming in a month.
I can't wait for hockey to come back. I love baseball and all, but there's something about the Habs fans and the way we interact that makes hockey season even better than it used to be.
Speaking of baseball... thumbs down to the Blue Jays after last night's game. the Red Sox just ran them over... it was tough.
Here's hoping that they put together a better performance this afternoon.
High fives to all of you. You deserve them.
Time to get back to work.
Be well mes amis.

Thursday Morning Musings, Let The Madness Begin Edition
Hola amigos.
I hope that you are all ready for the Madness.
Super lovin’ to my E-ve. Even when she’s away she’s hilarious via text. And it sounds like St. Patrick’s Day was a success for her and the girls.
I have to make my cbc.ca hockey pool picks today since I won’t be at the computer over the next couple of days. I have no hunches at this point, but I have to be better than I have been this week. That’s for sure.
The sun is shining again, it’s awesome. They say not to get too used to it because clouds and rain will come sooner or later. But for now, I say enjoy it as best you can.
I mentioned the Madness because BYU and Florida just tipped off in the first game of the NCAA men’s basketball tournament. My picks are in and my fingers are crossed and I have a different winner picked than President Obama.
I can’t believe that the Raptors won last night. I turned the game off after the 3rd quarter and was so upset about their effort that I actually Tweeted that fact. And then Chris Bosh hit a jumper with 2.1 seconds left on the clock and the 5 game losing streak ended. Thank goodness.
I could really go for a big lottery win. I should buy a ticket.
Today is day 10 of 10. So if I can make it to 7pm I’ll have completed the mission. Go team.
Msn.ca has a Top 30 Rocker Babes list on their entertainment page today. I just popped it up, haven’t looked at it. Discuss amongst yourselves and argue as needed.
I’m tempted to order pizza and chicken wings tonight and watch basketball until I pass out and then as soon as I wake up again tomorrow. I think my body can handle that. But can my spirit?
Huge love and high fives to Jake as the curtain goes up tonight on Urinetown. If you’re in the Ottawa area this weekend or next try to check it out $12 for students, $15 for the rest of us. Google the name.
And a high five to Romeo for his How I Lost My Socks At Walmart blog. I linked it. I like it.
I think that’s all for now. There’s a lot to do today.
Have a great one!
Tally whoa!

Thursday Morning Musings, Mid Afternoon Edition
Good day to you folks.
Here’s hoping that Thursday is going well.
Big ups to E-ve after a long lunch shift. Half price wings are a blessing and a curse depending on which side of the notepad you’re on.
Wag of the finger to the table that didn’t offer to share their cheesecake. How can you not share cheesecake? You know that everyone loves cheesecake. It’s a documented fact, I think.
The week is drawing to a close, and Saturday can’t come soon enough. I’m hoping that plans to catch a movie and such and have some much needed E-ve and Wally time work out as much as we hope.
Maybe we’ll see Alice and my mind will be blown. That’s what it’s supposed to do right?
Thumbs down to the Raptors who were terrible in the 3rd quarter last night in Sacramento. I’m still shaking my head.
The sun is shining, but they say the rain is on the way. I packed my little rain coat just in case.
Infinite Crisis confuses me, and I forgot that before I picked it back up. But I can’t put it back down again.
Everybody loves Zombies. Figure that one out.
The Mayfair Theatre is showing Clerks and Clerks II on March 22. If you have a chance I say go check it out. Should be a really good night.
March Madness will start soon. But I’m finding it hard to get excited since my Tar Heels won’t be involved. I’m sure that I could get into it anyway. But I don’t know who I’ll be cheering for. Probably the Syracuse Orange I guess.
I did pretty good at Jeopardy last night and even better at Wheel of Fortune. But the girl who won on Wheel was amazing on the final puzzle. I didn’t even have time to think before she blurted out Long Haul and took home $30,000 on top of the $12,000ish that she’d already won. Quite impressive.
I think that’s all for this afternoon friends. Have a great evening and remember that tomorrow is Friday. Hopefully that makes some of you smile.

Saturday Morning Musings, Let The Games Begin Edition
Hey there kiddies.
Welcome to the weekend if you’re lucky enough to be spending it doing something enjoyable.
I don’t mean to sound bitter. If you’re not working, or if your work is something that you love and you’re doing it today, I’m happy for you. Just try not to brag lest I resent you.
Big lovin’ to E-ve who has a sleep in morning and then a long, long day ahead. Please and thank you, if you’re going for lunch or dinner or both at the restaurant make the effort to smile and be polite to all the servers… but tip E-ve the most. She’s pretty awesome.
I’m crushing on her and missing her and listening to a lot of country music that will do nothing to help those feelings. X’s and O’s.
Happy birthday wishes go to Ottawa and a pretty good guy. He’s asked that wishes to him for a happy birthday also include best wishes to some friends of his that are going through some tough times with their health, and so we send as many best wishes as we can muster.
Big ups to the Toronto Star for giving away free newspapers for the duration on the Vancouver Olympics. I picked up the 500 lb Saturday Star this morning on my way to work and will give it a read a little later on. Thanks guys.
With regards to the tragedy that took place at the Olympics yesterday I would like to send my thoughts out to the friends, family and teammates of Georgian luger Nodar Kumaritashvili. I would also like to send my thoughts to the people of Georgia who have prepared themselves to cheer for their athletes at these games. Lastly, I would like to give all of my support to the athletes of Team Georgia that have decided to stay in Vancouver and compete to honor the memory of their fallen teammate. This is the power of sport, the spirit, the love and the opportunity to help people come together in times of great struggle.
I was a great deal of last night’s Opening Ceremonies without sound as I was out on the town with some old friends. And while I can’t comment on anything sound related I can tell you that I thought the visuals were stunning. From the costumes to the video boards, it was all grand.
There have been a lot of jokes online about K.D. Lang and her look last night. I have nothing to say on the matter and plan on trying to find the video of her singing Hallelujah in the next few minutes.
And the last thing I’ll hit from Vancouver is the lighting of the caldron. As Canadians we are fiercely proud of our people and stars and their achievements. And we have many, many people that would have been more than qualified to light the caldron based on service, status, legend and lore. With that in mind there were many, many people that would have been great choices to both carry the Olympic flag and light the caldron. And I think that VANOC did a great job of bringing a fantastic group of people together. My personal highlights included Anne Murray, Betty Fox, Bobby Orr, Romeo Dallaire, Donald Sutherland, Rick Hansen, Steve Nash, Catriona Le May Doan and Wayne Gretzky. That is an amazing group of athletes and citizens and most impressively, Canadians. It was a proud moment to watch even without the sound.
Last night I managed to make myself some quick nachos for my dinner at home. It was late, and they may not have been the best choice, but they were tasty. I fried some onion, added refried beans and salsa and let it all simmer with a little Tabasco sauce and had sour cream on the side. Like I said, tasty.
I think that’s all I’ve got for now my friends. Pop in later on the Twitter feed to see if there’s anything new. Or find us on Facebook. Wally Zed or Wally Z’s Morning Musings.

Monday Morning Musings, New Orleans Is Still Rocking Edition
Howdy partners.
Welcome to the work week. If you were lucky enough to have the weekend off I hope that you enjoyed it. No hard feelings.
Big ups to E-ve for the text I got in the middle of the night. No reason, just a text that made me smile this morning. She really is the awesome.
I also smiled big yesterday when Heath told me that he saw Roy Halladay the other night after he left the bar (Heath not Doc). I love that dude so it was huge. Heath also met Cabbie at the airport last spring on his way to Ottawa. I think I need to hang out with Heath more often so that I can see all of these people.
Quick note: People are going to let you down from time to time. It’s not a reflection of you; it is a reflection of those people. It is how you choose to deal with it that reflects you as a person.
Huge win for the Toronto Raptors last night at home against the defending NBA champions the Los Angeles Lakers. The home town boys won 106-105 on 2 free throws made by Hedu Turkoglu with 1.2 seconds left in the game. I was nervous down the stretch and flipping TV channels back and forth with the NFL play-offs at the same time. What a night in sports.
Turns out that I could be an NFL expert as I did pick the Colts and Saints to meet in the Super Bowl. Even though both teams were down at points during the game, they both found a way to come back and make it to the big game.
The Saints continue to be a great story as the city of New Orleans rebuilds itself after Katrina. Having the pride that they do in a team that has been amazing is a great reminder of the human spirit and also how sports can be bigger than just a game on Sunday.
Rumour is that http://www.msn.ca/ has some behind the scenes something or other on the new Rihanna photo shoot.
I watched most of Chuck last night as the football game overlapped it a little bit due to the over time session. I won’t divulge and secrets or endings, but I was entertained. New characters are always fun, and story lines continue to evolve 5 episodes in to the season. It will be on again tonight for people that were too busy or distracted for the show last night.
The skies have cleared after lots of rain this morning. There are reports that it may rain some more, but the temperature is supposed to dip back below freezing so I’m not sure what will happen.
Talked to Mommy Z on the phone last night. Turns out that she loved Transformers 2 which surprised me a little bit. And she’s cool with the idea of E-ve and I coming to visit for Family Day in February.
I think that’s all for today friends. Have a great one.

Sunday Morning Musings, Trivial Pursuit And The Raptors Win Edition
Good day y’all.
It’s a grey and mild Sunday in Toronto, but I hope there’s some sunshine in your life wherever you are.
Big ups to E-ve as she prepares herself for Trivial Pursuit this evening. I have extreme faith in her ability to run the field with her knowledge of pretty much everything.
I’m not trying to stop anyone from playing Jeopardy, Wheel of Fortune, Trivial Pursuit or Scrabble with E-ve, but it’s a tough go if you try. I’ll stick to sports trivia and things of that ilk.
In other game news, it’s a Killer Bunnies evening in Ottawa. Good luck to everyone in the battle for the winning carrot.
Karaoke was fun last night. As I mentioned on Twitter, my 2nd song was too big for me in the end. I did too much singing along, and I blame the shot of rye for me not being able to do justice to Tim McGraw’s Live Like You Were Dyin’. The last big long note was just a little too much.
I also realized that Glee has had a huge impact because when Sweet Caroline and Don’t Stop Believin’ came on all I could think about was those damn kids doing a fantastic job with the music.
I also received my first birthday gift of the year, which was unexpected and pretty cool. A wooden baseball bat, much like the ones I had when I was a kid. It feels perfect in my hands and reminds me of days gone by.
The late night street car ride home was packed with people that must have had a great time last night because it was loud and busy.
I had a good quick visit with E-ve before I went home to change to go out last night too. We had some Tim Hortons and chit chat. I was out of it a bit from working which didn’t make me great company, but she makes me a happy dude. I’m lucky.
Sad faces as mes Canadiens lost 4-2 last night to Ottawa. It wasn’t a great effort by les boys. And it underscores the fact that Montreal scores fewer goals per game than any other team in the NHL.
Happy faces as the Toronto Raptors are minutes away from a big home win against the Dallas Mavericks. These are games that are big to win because they give us the opportunity to beat bad teams and climb the standings instead of just treading water.
Time to wrap it up for the day. It’s a short work day and we’ve got basketball, hockey and football to watch.
Have a great day.

Big ups to E-ve as she prepares herself for Trivial Pursuit this evening. I have extreme faith in her ability to run the field with her knowledge of pretty much everything.
I’m not trying to stop anyone from playing Jeopardy, Wheel of Fortune, Trivial Pursuit or Scrabble with E-ve, but it’s a tough go if you try. I’ll stick to sports trivia and things of that ilk.
In other game news, it’s a Killer Bunnies evening in Ottawa. Good luck to everyone in the battle for the winning carrot.
Karaoke was fun last night. As I mentioned on Twitter, my 2nd song was too big for me in the end. I did too much singing along, and I blame the shot of rye for me not being able to do justice to Tim McGraw’s Live Like You Were Dyin’. The last big long note was just a little too much.
I also realized that Glee has had a huge impact because when Sweet Caroline and Don’t Stop Believin’ came on all I could think about was those damn kids doing a fantastic job with the music.
I also received my first birthday gift of the year, which was unexpected and pretty cool. A wooden baseball bat, much like the ones I had when I was a kid. It feels perfect in my hands and reminds me of days gone by.
The late night street car ride home was packed with people that must have had a great time last night because it was loud and busy.
I had a good quick visit with E-ve before I went home to change to go out last night too. We had some Tim Hortons and chit chat. I was out of it a bit from working which didn’t make me great company, but she makes me a happy dude. I’m lucky.
Sad faces as mes Canadiens lost 4-2 last night to Ottawa. It wasn’t a great effort by les boys. And it underscores the fact that Montreal scores fewer goals per game than any other team in the NHL.
Happy faces as the Toronto Raptors are minutes away from a big home win against the Dallas Mavericks. These are games that are big to win because they give us the opportunity to beat bad teams and climb the standings instead of just treading water.
Time to wrap it up for the day. It’s a short work day and we’ve got basketball, hockey and football to watch.
Have a great day.
