Holiday season is fast approaching and RIM made a brilliant move by lowering the prices of the playbook to a extremely low price and blowing them out before the rush started. They took an awful lot of business away from Apple. Remember you aren't paying for the hardware you are paying for the apps.

As of right now it looks as though the Leafs have the team to make it to the playoffs. Single tear!!!

I realize that somebody that doesn't play fantasy football that they must feel nauseated when people talk about fake teams for hours on end.

Top 3 albums of the year 2011

3. Stephen Malkmus and the Jicks - Mirror Traffic
2. Girls - Father, Son, Holy Ghost
1. The Sheepdogs - Learn and Burn

Holiday Party is this coming Sunday. It's amazing how many prizes we are going to have with the same amount of money that we have always had. Electronics are just so much cheaper.

I give TSN props for keeping on with the CFL coverage. I am not sure I know one person that cares about the CFL on this side of the country.

Crazy, Stupid Love - 8.7/10
Captain America - 7.5/10

So the NBA is finally coming back. One pretty wicked rule change. You get a do over on one contract. The NBA has so many brutal contracts that you never really see a trade that doesn't involve a bad contract.

Had to give up Roger Waters tickets. I have two weekends planned all of next summer and it landed on one of them.

Two teams that will regret their goalie contracts or might already be regretting them. Vancouver Canucks and Philadelphia Flyers. 9 years for Bryzgalov, come on now...

I don't really care how comfortable speedos are. They still look ridiculous, you don't see me wearing a moo moo out because it's comfortable.

Are there any tough words for men's pajamas?? Night gown??

People are going to explode on the roads today. Freezing rain and forgetting how to drive in the winter.

Dale Hunter is coaching in the NHL. And he is coaching the Washington Capitals. Dale Hunter was a dirty, but tough as nails player. He is coaching Alexander Semin and Niklas Backstrom now. These two dudes would sit out of the lineup with the hiccups.

Went to a rockstar party this past weekend. Dress as your favorite rock star and singing a couple of songs at karaoke by them. Sara and I went as the White Stripes, went fairly well. The A+ effort of the night goes to Peter who dressed as Gene Simmons with the face makeup and the platform boots that made him about nine feet tall. Awesome!!

Stop making Garfield movies. They are terrible every single time.

Craig Ferguson is by far the best late night dude. He just says and does whatever he wants. None of it really makes sense. Best of all he has a robot skeleton named Geoff.

Meat head is still the best name for the brawn with no brains.

Aaron Rodgers is having the season I have ever seen from any player in NFL history.

Black Sabbath is returning to the industry. They are releasing an album and going on tour in the New Year. Ozzy Osbourne is 107 and still touring.

In lesser news Van Halen is also returning. Get your spandex and wrestling boots with tassels on and crank up some panama.

There are some great movembers out there. Good job gentlemen.

My hatred grows for the Leafs. Is it the arrogance of Brian Burke or is it the just being a jerk of Ron Wilson. Or maybe is the absurdness of the over value of all Leaf players that the fans have. Oh by the way Leaf fans, you could have had Mike Richards for Nikolai Kulemin and Luke Schenn. Just a little salt in the wounds.

I don't know how I feel about Tim Tebow. He makes a mockery of the QB position, but he keeps on winning. My guess is that once defenses figure him out that he is in trouble. He misses throws that a Listowel Lords QB could make.

Harry Potter the Deathly Hollows part 2 - 9.1/10

Kim Kardashian divorced Kris Humphries and the public is in outrage over it. Unfortunately we are the idiots that put her in the spot light even though she has done nothing to deserve it.

Hey basketball isn't back yet. And still no one cares.

Blackberry Playbook went down to $199.99 this week. Smart move by RIM. Hit the public with a low price point right before Christmas to steal the business from Apple.

Time for Tim's - don't like the slogan.

Too many fantasy TV shows at once. The only one that I seem to be enjoying is Grimm.

There is something awesome about going into the vintages section in the LCBO and picking out a wine.

Electric Six is coming back to the Starlight lounge in Waterloo. They are a great band to see live.

Video games are becoming so story based now. It's weird to be playing a game and feel like you are watching a movie. What happened to just hopping over turtles and squishing mushroom dudes??

If you are buying a laptop for somebody for xmas, please don't buy them anything less then something that has an I3 processor built into it. Just because it says dual core doesn't mean it's fast. The AMD E350 processor is slower then my Pentium 4 that is 9 years old.

Top 3 rookie NFL players

3 - Julio Jones
2 - Cam Newton
1 - AJ Green

If I was to build a NFL team from the ground up and was told that I could have any young QB that I wanted I would take Christian Ponder from the Vikings. He reminds me of Aaron Rodgers in his first couple of years.

Thieves need to have tougher consequences for stealing. We have been guys just running into our store grabbing games and running out. No plan just grabbing and running.

Lady Gaga go away. You are about as hip as the dudes from the wassup commercials.

The dudes that wore those green suits to Canucks games should have made something they could have had something to drink through as their style.

Basketball might be the sport that has the hardest time coming back after a lockout/strike. The players don't seem to understand that their has been a recession for the past five years and they can't make exactly the same money as five years ago.

Clearance Halloween candy is dangerous.

Sara ran the New York Marathon last weekend. 5 hours and 55 minutes. I believe this accomplishment to be one of the toughest to achieve. I was achieving trying new beers at a local pub while watching the Bills/Jets game.

Movies that you haven't seen but you should.

3 - Garden State
2 - High Fidelity
1 - Coraline

Have you watched the Green Bay Packers play this year? If you want to watch execution at it's finest have a look.

I will be running a half marathon to support the cure of colitis this spring or summer. More details to follow.

How did the mullet come about???

How much does it cost to get the anti-aging drug that Eddie Murphy and Hulk Hogan use??

Looking into getting goalie equipment to begin playing again. Haven't played net in about 12 years. I was terrible when I played, I could only improve with age, correct??

London Drugs is an electronics store.

Battle: Los Angeles 4.8/10

What do people with moustaches that wear them full time think about Movember?? I feel the moustache people of the world are getting a raw deal and we should be raising money for their right to raise children in a pro moustache world with sunsets that set over their moustaches. I have had too much wine...
