I saw an episode of the Canadian Popstars yesterday, and the first concert for group Sugar Jones
The group are… bland. Their music seems bland. They look bland. Even the concert venue was bland, and the recording looked cheap to me.
Why is it that everything made here in Canada has to look and feel like poor [...]

An addendum to the last post: I visited ABCgo.com, and learned the network is postponing Making the Band 2 until May 25th; I believe that’s after the current ratings sweep time.
Since the ratings for the show return have been quite low, it would make sense for ABC to try airing something that does gain ratings [...]

Time for some TV thoughts!
I noticed last night that Making the Band 2 wasn’t on ABC at all last night; both episodes were pre-empted for the American version of Who’s Line is it Anyways?
Could it already have been cancelled by its third week? Could it be that as I said, the boys of O-Town come [...]

My cats are a bit annoyed with me… for the past few days I’ve been cutting back on the amount of tin food I feed them daily. I’ve been giving them tin food for both of the day’s meals for a long time; that’s not only over-feeding, but that much soft stuff is bad for [...]

How do I really know that Spring is finally here? Because yesterday I closed most of my apartment heaters, and opened windows for cross-drafts. A few minutes ago, I closed the final one, in my washroom.
The nights tend to still be a little crisp, but we’ve been mostly having daily weather like late Spring. More [...]

Protesters Of Free Trade Meet in Canada
This news is already changed, as I understand now that protesters did initiate violence.
This upsets me on several levels: as a Canadian, I’m embarassed for my country.
As a native of Quebec too, I’m ashamed that my province has now made a fool of itself in the world’s eyes.

Hey! Ho! Let’s Go! Remembering Joey Ramone, Saviour of Rock and Roll. I just listened to an MP3 of “I Wanna be Sedated”. A great high energy song.
On a newsgroup I’m part of, someone made a good point: you don’t expect hard rockers to succumb to cancer…
(This article has some strong language; if you don’t [...]

I just read that Tim McVeigh’s execution has now been scheduled for May 16th. For those who don’t recognize the name, he was the man responsible for the Oklahoma bombing a few years ago.
Usually, I’m against the death penalty. Killing a killer won’t bring their victims back. I can’t really see any of the survivors [...]

I’ve been trying to post this since yesterday, but Blogger keeps crashing on me… so this is take 3:
I got a ‘get-well’ card from my former co-workers in the mail yesterday. Glad to know they’re still thinking of me.
(That is so crucial as far as stuff to post.)
