Best thing about dressing as Tony Stark for a scifi convention. You get to be a jerk like Tony Stark and not get in trouble for it
Reason number 14 why I hate basketball. You take one player away from a team and they end up being the worst team in the league. Cleveland Cavaliers are the example. You take the two best players away from the Penguins in hockey and they can still compete for the cup.
Top 3 weathered actresses or actors
3 - Michael Keaton
2 - Angelina Jolie
1 - Cameron Diaz
All the tablets are coming or already out. I think that the Motorola XOOM is probably the best value. I will wait and see on the RIM Playbook though.
I miss golfing!!!!
How fast is Charlie Sheen going to be old news? I believe faster then Chuck Norris jokes.
Something I thought I would never hear in my life. "Daryl can you stop playing country music."
I know that I probably whine every year about how long the winter is. But, it feels like I haven't been outside for about a year without freezing.
People have lost the art of spelling. People are always so impressed when I can spell their name properly at work. I have seen the following for my name. Darryl, Darel, Darrell, Darly, and Dyral.
Swiss Chalet delivery is the finest delivery in town. They have the easiest website to navigate, and the quickest delivery service.
Sucker Punch 3.2/10
Iron Man 2 5.2/10
The Other Guys 7.8/10
Tame Impala is still on the top of my charts. There hasn't been too much that's come out to take it's place.
People put way too much pressure on themselves to have the perfect wedding. Everything has to be just right or the day is ruined. The location, the cake, her dress, or the first dance. Sara and I just celebrated our 3rd wedding anniversary. We got married in Costa Rica, we just picked a random spot on the beach. We had our dinner at a decent restaurant in Manuel Antonio. Our first dance was played out of a ghetto blaster, and the DJ was a shuffle button on a stereo. In my opinion it was such a perfect day because of the people we had there and the fact that I was with the person that I wanted to be with. I am not saying that everyone should do it this way, but you shouldn't feel that you have to have the perfect wedding. Don't be a cookie cutter, make it a memorable one in your own way.

Best time in sports is coming up soon. Start of the baseball season and the hockey playoffs.
I was never a big basketball fan, but it's sad that there is not a good team in the NBA that I can even cheer for. Maybe the Oklahoma City Thunder, maybe!!!
Does it ever hurt your brain that there is so much social networking that you can't keep up.
Junip tickets are booked. Very excited!!!
El Salvador was beautiful, Sara and I climbed a volcano, we also checked out some of the Mayan Ruins as well. The food was ok, but that is kind of standard in most South and Central American countries.
We are going to New Mexico for Sara's 30th. Never seen the old west before, looking forward to it.
Eat, Pray, Love - 7.2/10
Sucker Punch comes out this weekend. It's done by Zack Snyder (300.) It looks like a bunch of cool thoughts he had just thrown into one movie. Can he pull it off? I say yes.
Going to a fund raiser for Epilepsy this Saturday. Partying for a good cause is always fantastic.
Owning a cape is something I strive towards, I am not sure I can pull it off.
Snow storm??????
Bear in Heaven were featured in an episode of Skins. It always feels good to have a band you've known about for some time be featured in a hit show.
I understand that since we are a bilingual country we were taught to speak French. Being older now I realize that it would have been much more useful learning Spanish.
Facebook is just internet barf.
Netflix needs to up their price a month a bit, and get more new releases. They have the right idea, but advertising "I love you Beth Cooper" as a new release is just wrong.
Prosciutto Pizza is the best pizza I have had recently. They are an Italian couple that owns the pizzeria. They went to Italy and shut down the pizzeria while they were there. They didn't trust anyone else to make the pizza. Dedication!!
I find it amazing how the Japanese are dealing with the Tsunami. No riots, no insanity, and no violence. They are an amazing society.
Sushi is something I like now.

Back from Columbia, off to El Salvador in a week. Difference between the two vacations. One was extremely difficult and rewarding. The other, well I should finish a couple of books.
X-rays were negative on my arm. Thought I might have broke it in Columbia.
Is it completely ludicrous how much detail TSN goes into on trade deadline day?
Sunday was a write off. Felt like I was going to die most of the day.
Invictus - 8.3/10
Unstoppable 9/10
Let me in 7.4/10
Spring training has started for baseball. I can't wait to get that first whiff of street meat and the first call of play ball.
I find Canadian TV is turning more and more into American TV. Always trying to terrify you that awful things are everywhere. If you don't get this shot you will die on your all inclusive vacation in the Caribbean.
Traveling to the Lost City in Columbia was intense. You have to climb 1256 stairs to reach the top. The city has the most beautiful scenery, and interesting history behind it. The travel to the Lost City took a total of six days, and has the same difficulty rating as climbing Mt. Kilimanjaro. I am impressed that I managed to finish it without any serious injury, but I don't think I would ever do anything that treacherous ever again.
The Walking Dead is definitely worth checking out if are looking for a show to capture your interest. I find it nice not having the gore aspect of the zombies, but mainly the human side of things instead.
Bob Marley never really loses it's flavor. Meanwhile ACDC loses it's flavor faster then Big League Chew.
Could have went skating outside today. I forgot how crappy freezing rain was.
I still don't understand rugby. I find it comical watching the scrum.
Juan Valdez look a likes were everywhere in Columbia. There was one dude that had the best mustache that I have ever seen. He sat down on the bench across the road, and there were two ladies that were drawn into the magical mustache powers. I had to keep Sara seated.
Donkey's are Columbia's national animal. This might be false, but they are everywhere.

The Green Bay Packers are Superbowl Champs. I haven't had a moral team victory like this since the last time they won it in '97. It feels pretty good.
The show "V" is good, but it makes the human race look extremely stupid. I believe there would be more people asking questions on why the aliens are helping us so much?
White Lies single "Bigger Than Us" is currently my favorite song.
It's raining nearly everyday that we will be in Colombia.
Tooth was removed yesterday, actually not in too much pain today.
So parents are attempting to get the show "skins" off of the air. I find it funny that parents really think they have any control over what their kids watch. The internet has prevented any control whatsoever.
April Wine is playing at the local Paddyfest this year. Hmmmm, attending an April Wine concert will put me in that group of people that attends concerts at Lulu's, and thinks Red Lobster is a gourmet night out.
Went to Niagara Falls on Friday night. There was a fantastic promotion through travelzoo which is still currently on. Fallsview room, dinner for two at the Remington Steakhouse, breakfast for two at Applebees, and multiple VIP wine tasting. All for $99.99.
http://www.oakeshotel.com/gourmet-getaway/
As a male gender we always try to put a sexual spin on everything. Even great female athletes, good at tennis, golf, or even race car driving you must be in a maxim magazine to be noticed.
This winter has been awful. Even living in a townhouse complex I have had to shovel to the point where I am whining about it.
Tylenol 3 makes you so dimwitted.
Vampire phase has slowed down a bit it seems. Next bandwagon genre; I have my money on witchcraft.
Potato chips are still my biggest downfall.
I find it funny that they have snack packs that are 100 calories for almost everything now. Just eat a few less doritos and two less cookies and you wouldn't have to pay for the small pack.
My goatee has become gigantic. If I shave off my goatee and just keep the mustache, buy a white suit, and wear white loafers with no socks they would believe I was the next Tony Montana.

So today it looks nice enough outside. Until you go outside.
Packers are in the Superbowl, who would have thunk it in the middle of the year when they lost so many people to injury?
Root canal tomorrow. Never had one and am not looking forward to it.
Is it a rule that Alec Baldwin has to win the SAG award for his role in 30 Rock every year?
Spring training is in about a month, the thought of baseball is the thought of spring which makes me happy.
The Kids are all right - 8.2/10
R.E.D. - 7.3/10
Egypt has shut down the internet. How does a country go about doing this?
Sara has decided that she wants to go to Iceland for her 30th birthday. If anything it will definitely be memorable.
Do dentists really have to make you feel so guilty everytime you go see them?
Oh your $400.00 laptop doesn 't run very quickly. This is the same as saying, oh I can't believe your '82 Camaro doesn't get very good gas mileage.
What's worse family picture slide shows or vacation slide shows?
The Bauer Kitchen gets another mention. Dinner and service there has been fantastic each and everytime we have been there.
Going to see Plants and Animals in March at the Starlight for those that are interested.
Caribou is not playing at the starlight in March. The Orange Monkey Vinyl shop hasn't updated their website in over 2 years and it's old news.
Coffee mugs are always a great gift.
I have stopped going to Tim Horton's almost completely. I can honestly say that I do not miss it whatsoever.
Sports casters aren't very creative anymore with their nicknames. A-Rod, K-Rod, Cargo. They should do more then just take letters from each name and add them together. Like Tiger Woods "Slut."
I always want to say that Radiohead is overrated, but I just can't do it, they are an amazing act.
"Episodes" is a new show on HBO that stars Matt Leblanc as himself. But he is portraying himself after finishing the Friends show and he is arrogant and full of himself. It's kind of show within a show. It's funny, and you should check it out if you enjoy the Office type humor.
Ben Roethlisberger looks like American Dad with a beard.
Someone already beat me to the punch that Steven Tyler looks like a woman now. He might even be better looking then Cher.
The old saying is still true. Hockey will not work in warm climates unless it's a city with a huge population. Like for instance Los Angeles.
Johnnie Vegas is a name of a golfer. Shouldn't this be the name of a poker player?

Packers play in the NFC Championship tomorrow. If this was last year I would be flipping out for not being in the country for the Superbowl. But I am in the country for Superbowl, is it fate??
The Social Network - 9.5/10
Vernon Wells was dealt yesterday, What were the Angels thinking?
How come everybody looks so serious on poker commercials?
Bermuda was nice, the temperature was only about 15 degrees, but it was nice to get some sunshine.
Sara finished her half marathon, she worked extremely hard and it paid off.
I believe people need to get more vitamin d. So many people are grumpy lately.
"V" has really turned it up a notch this season. It actually gives me something to look forward to watch each week.
Ordered the trial edition of Netflix. Love the format of it, but everything is outdated. Is it still worth $8.00 a month, maybe?
Butt implants, what? Why?
Ricky Gervais is who I strive to be. He can say whatever he wants at the Golden Globes, and everyone just says oh it's just Ricky Gervais.
An old man told me yesterday that he got into a fight at a bar. The dude punched him and broke his false teeth. He then told me after he got his false teeth broken that he pounded the dude until he required to be taken to the hospital. This dude was minimum 60 and maximum 70. Why would you tell this story to anyone, especially a salesman at Future Shop?
Mango curry should be more recognized.
Jesse Eisenberg is what Michael Cera should have become.
Grapes are $7.99 a lb in Bermuda.
Our flight to LA has been canceled due to lack of interest. I call BS, I believe it was because the deal was too good and wasn't worth it for them.
When you have technology issues, google the issues that you are having. Guaranteed you aren't the first one to have this problem, and I guarantee if you call someone at an electronics store they will give you a runaround answer.
One of the salesman at FS left the company yesterday and bought everybody in the store a going away present. Very classy and very unexpected.
What is the age when you can still get a way with wearing a mo-hawk?
Packers 21 - Bears 10
Jets 17 - Steelers 10
I believe it should be illegal to have an alarm clock going off in any show or commercial. That noise makes me quiver.

Packers have made it to the 2nd round of the playoffs and the Flyers lead the Eastern Conference in points. It's good to be me right now.
MC'd a wedding on the weekend. It was successful, the wedding was beautiful and the reception went perfect. Thanks to everyone that was there and enjoyed the day.
Bob's Burgers - 8.1/10 - New animated show that's on in between American Dad and the Simpsons.
Leaving for Bermuda in a few days for Sara to run her half marathon. Looking forward to some warm sunshine and a few margarita's.
Making homemade pizza is so bloody easy. Why hasn't anyone shown me this before?
Christmas season was a semi-success. I lived through another season, but the body takes a beating in the hectic pace.
New Years Eve was a great time other then the fact that I left both Sara's dress and my suit at the house. We had to go for an emergency shopping session at a local mall. We made out fine. But it was a little stressful.
Finally opened a bottle of wine that I received from the family for my birthday, delicious. I was a little selfish opening it when Sara could only have 1 glass because of her training.
I am really behind in my movie watching lately.
Top 3 movies that I need to watch before Oscar Season.
3. True Grit
2. The Fighter
1. Social Network
Interpol is coming to Toronto in the middle of February. I am away in Columbia, but if you haven't seen them before, they are a very good live band.
I will be around for the superbowl though for the first time in two years.
Natalie Portman and Mila Kunis have a scene in Black Swan that is causing a stir. I will leave it at that.
It's got to be tough to be the band Korn, you still have to keep rocking about being an outsider in high school even though you are in your 40's now.
Time Travel will never exist.
It is so difficult to eat fast food. Anything you buy seems to have some type of disadvantage to it. Subway, cold cuts cause stomach cancer. Burger joints, the obvious deep fried garbage element. Maybe I should just pick some grass off of the sidewalk and just have that.
Soup is the most underrated of all meals. When we went to Italy last year, the soup and the prosciutto were the best foods of the trip.
The city pulse dude passed away recently. I was very sad. When I was younger and staying up too late, it was always his voice that you heard when you knew you were up to late.
Sorry to say, but Starbucks is pompous.
Happy New Year Everyone.
