Undecided about Flashforward

So one of the new shows I started watching this season has been FlashForward.
And even though we’re seven episodes into the series, I’m still undecided on whether I like it or not.
For those who have never seen it, it’s about what would happen if everyone in the world passed out at the exact same time, [...]

Don’t Hassel the Hoff review

Anytime I get a chance to get to a bookstore, I always end up coming home with a couple of books that I am anxious to read.
But I don’t like starting new books until I finish the one I am currently reading, so I hurry up and finish whatever it may be.
It just so happened [...]

Couples Retreat review

So last night, I went to see a movie for the first time since the summer blockbusters stopped hitting the screen.
Mostly we went because we only had nine kids come by for Halloween, despite the fact we were giving out normal-sized chocolate bars, instead of the really small ones, and three of those kids are the [...]

Sexiest woman alive?

So another magazine has come out with a sexiest woman in the world article.
This time it’s Esquire, and this time they chose Kate Beckinsale.
Things like this make me laugh.
Last year, Esquire said Halle Berry was the sexiest woman in the world. In 2007, they chose Charlize Theron.
So since those women are still around, and since [...]

What is evony?

I’m sure most of you have seen them.
A buxom blonde, inviting you to play Evony.
Anyone know what it is? The best I can figure is that it is a role-playing game online.
If that’s it, then I don’t think I would like it too much.
Online role-playing games are of no interest to me. Mostly because the [...]

All About Steve review

So my wife and I went to see All About Steve yesterday.
It wasn’t my original plan. The two of us went to see Gamer instead, but it was too bloody and gory for my wife, so we left a few minutes in and went to the next theatre.
I enjoyed All About Steve. For a chick [...]

Winning. Nothing Else book review

So I just finished reading Patrick’s Roy biography, Winning. Nothing Else.
And while I am a huge fan of Patrick Roy (even going as far as naming him as the second greatest Montreal Canadiens player of all time), I think this book is for even more hardcore fans than me.
The book is a biography, written [...]

Jessica Biel’s photos are naughty

Apparently, Jessica Biel is a dangerous woman.
Online at least.
McAfee Inc., which is a company that focuses on anti-virus software, has said people searching for Biel are more likely to come across viruses than any other celebrity.
According to their press release, “Fans searching for “Jessica Biel” or “Jessica Biel downloads,” “Jessica Biel wallpaper,” “Jessica Biel screen [...]

Britney Spears in Ottawa

So Britney Spears is in Ottawa tonight (Friday).
The show is sold out I believe.
For all the detractors of Britney, and there are a lot of them, I think they have to admit one thing:
She’s definitely the queen of pop.
I remember working at a daily newspaper about 10 years ago when she debuted, and the articles [...]

Top science fiction tearjerkers

So SFX, a science fiction magazine, has come out with a list of the top 26 tearjerkers in the history of science fiction (you can view the list here).
It was done through a poll that they published, asking readers to vote.
And readers got it wrong.
Some of the choices make sense. The Buffy the Vampire Slayer episode [...]
