Of all the sites on the internet, this is one.
I don’t know why I feel the need to write about this. I just read yesterday that Joseph Brooks, the one who wrote “You Light Up My Life”, committed suicide. You’d think that would be reason enough to write about it. Who stopped lighting up his life? Where was all the hope to carry on? …

Wow. I’m not sure what to say. Macho Man Randy Savage is gone. He died today in a car accident when he suffered what his family is saying is a heart attack behind the wheel. He was 58. Wrestlers die all the time for all kinds of reasons and it’s always sad, but this one …
I stayed up until after 2 AM to listen to the Jays last night. I shouldn’t have. I should have gone to sleep earlier. It still would have been late, but it would have been some extra rest and I wouldn’t have had to se…that. When I thought about turning in for the night, it …
Red Green regular Wayne Robson dies He was 64. He had a million different film, television and theatre credits that I was pretty much completely unaware of.

Enough chomp chomp chomping for now. Let’s just ramble. I haven’t rambled in a little bit. I had a weird thing happen to me yesterday. I went to the drug store to pick something up, and a girl that usually helps me out said “So, you’re here for something for your eye?” My eye? No. …
Well, I’m still up. I took a wee unintentional nap. Now I’m just loading books on my Stream so I’ll have things to listen to during my travels home. But I wanted to make a quick note of something I found out today. I was sending notes out to friends wishing them a merry Christmas. …
I just found out that Mark Dailey has died. He was only 57. He had been suffering from cancer for some time, but it was hoped that he would pull through. A lot of people may not know the name, but I’m sure they know the voice. If you’ve ever heard the phrase “This is …
There are a lot of things that people willremember Pat Burns for,but to me he’ll always be the guy who took the Toronto Maple Leafs, who were pretty much a laughing stock for a good part of the 80’s and very early 90’s, and brought them back to respectability. The most successful and fun to …
