Saturday Morning Musings, E-ve > Batman Edition

Good day to you all.


I hope that this finds you all well.

Welcome to the weekend, and a huge weekend it is.

For those of us puckheads and Olympic enthusiasts tomorrow will mark the biggest game we’ve ever watched. Be ready for Canada vs. USA friends. It could get crazy.

Big lovin’ to E-ve who ended up working a double shift yesterday at the restaurant. Good people do good things. You read it here. She is the awesome. And like I said on Twitter yesterday, I love her way more than I love Batman.

I forgot my chapstick today. Which sucks because my lips are drier than they have been all winter long. It figures that my system would fail me on the day I need it most. Sigh.

The snow is in the air here in Toronto again today. And some people are sick of it already. Makes me wonder what would have happened if we had a real winter earlier on.

I finished my Batman comic yesterday that E-ve got me for my bday. It was pretty good. And if Kevin Smith says that Widening Gyre is a better Batman story I think I will have to read it at some point to find out.

Finishing Batman also means that it’s time to start reading World War Z. Everyone loves a good piece of Zombie literature, and I’m hoping that this book is no different.

For some reason there isn’t a lot coming to mind today as I sit at the keyboard. Weird I know.

We’re rocking the iTunes radio on the computer right now while we wait for the latest episode of Survivor to download. My co-worker is a big fan, and who am I to deny him?

My thoughts and prayers go out to everyone in Chile. Yesterday’s earthquake was large and caused a lot of destruction. I hope for the best for those of you with friends and family there.

In other nature news, there’s a huge iceberg floating toward Australia. They say that it’s half the size of Prince Edward Island, that’s a big chunk of ice kids. And they also say that it’s not global warming related. Wild eh?

I think that’s all for now.

Have a great Saturday.

Thursday Morning Musings, Day Off Date Day Edition

Howdy y'all.



I hope that you were all able to witness the drubbing that Team Canada put on Team Russia last night. I fist pumped more during that 60 minutes of hockey than the entire cast of Jersey Shore did on MTV this season.



Here's my lovin' to E-ve. I'm excited for todays hang out and date day. Looks like some shopping mixed with food and perhaps some nap time. 3 things that I do enjoy. Plus, she's the awesome!



I put the question out on my Twitter and I'll put it here as well. Should I look to update my Green Arrow trades or pick up some Batman stuffs or go over to Marvel and see what Kevin Smith did with Spider-Man way back when? Let me know what you think.



They say more snow is gonna fall in Toronto today as well. I suppose I should do my best not to fall over and get soaked while I'm out. So far I've been lucky this winter, but you've always got to be careful kids.



I'd be remiss not to mention the Canada vs USA gold medal game today in women's hockey. Especially since I already told a dude on Twitter that there was indeed hockey tonight when he was complaining there wasn't.



Big ups to Seamus and Melissa on CTV's Olympic Morning. They have great chemistry and have been fun to watch.



I'm jealous of E-ve's Olympic mittens.



I've been trying to come up with non sports Long Form Muse ideas over the last few days. But it's been tough. I'm pretty dialed in right now. Maybe next week we'll be back with more.



Side note: Still a big fan of Taylor Swift.



Remember to keep smiling and laughing my friends. It's the key to a good day.



I think that's all for today. Or at least for now. Check the Twitter update to see what other trouble I can get into.



Have a great day kids.

Wednesday Morning Musings, 24 Hour Countdown And Thoughts Of An Android Edtion

Good day folks.

I hope that everyone is having a good start to their Wednesday.

We are now less than 24 hours away from E-ve’s birthday.

She’s got a great day planned tomorrow with family time and friend time all jam packed into 1 Thursday. It’s going to be a good one. I can feel it.

Sad faces were found all over Canada last night as our World Junior team was defeated by the American squad in overtime. It was the first time that the Canadian team lost the Gold Medal game since 2004 when the Americans won their first gold.

I’m thinking that I may be ready to ditch my Blackberry and go to an Android. Thoughts?

Yesterday I watched a lot of Youtube here at work and I was all over the country music. Sugarland really does blow me away. The songs, musicianship and the singing are all tremendous. I fully expect them to be at the top of the country music game for a long time to come.

Apparently my old buddy, and former coach of the Montreal Canadiens, Pat Burns has been telling stories about the Tiger Woods saga. Burns says that his buddies in the police department told him that Tiger lost 2 teeth and had a cut on his cheek from the swing of a golf club.

Side note: My fantasy hockey team has been brutal this week.

Congrats to Jake for finishing a stretch of 8 straight days at work.

Hoping that the Raptors can get another big win tonight. It would be 7 of 8 if they do. I’d be happy with that.

I lurve my E-ve.

Tons of things to do today and not enough time to do them.

Gotta jet for now.

Have a great day mes amis.

Tuesday Morning Musings, 48 Hour Countdown and Batman VS J.C. Edition

Hola amigos.

Here’s hoping that you’re feeling well.

Happy to report that after a fantastic dinner of homemade baked beans and bread supplied by E-ve last night I slept pretty well and feel like I may be beating this cold thing.

Also, thumbs up to E-ve’s cooking. She doesn’t seem to give herself much credit for a lot of it, but she always does a pretty awesome job. I like it a lot.

And, we are now less than 48 hours away from E-ve’s birthday. It is fast approaching and I am quickly trying to finalize a plan in my head that will translate well to reality.

Team Canada goes for gold tonight against Team USA at the WJC in Saskatchewan. There will be a whole lot of people cheering on the under 19 year olds on the prairies.

It’s snowing again in Toronto. I think we’ve got a little bit of a pattern developing. I’m not sure how I’ll feel about it long term.

Here is my favourite Tweet sequence of the day from @ThatKevinSmith. The question was posed to him by @BMSTK and the answer is straight from the man himself.

“Batman VS Terminator VS Darth Vader VS Jesus VS a pack of Velociraptors. Who wins?” Batman takes out Arnie & Anakin with EMP blasts via Batmobile, & shatters grills of 2 raptors while root-canaling a third with boot-stomp. Since they’re beasts, his moral code doesn’t prevent him from snapping necks- leaving just the Christ. Batman pulls his uppercut to J.C.’s jaw. K.O. Jesus forgives Bats.

We are almost at the 300 post mark here at the Morning Muse… and that’s kinda cool to me.

Snuggie?

I am still having a hard time dealing with the fact that the University of North Carolina Tar Heels lost a basketball game to the College of Charleston Cougars. This is a loss where the Heels shot only 38 percent from the floor and were only 1 for 6 from 3-point range… unacceptable. Arg.

I think that’s about it for now folks. If anything pops into my head I’ll fire it up on the Twitter feed.

And, as per tradition, if you’re only here this one day of the week, we’ll see you next Tuesday.
