On August 17th my friends and I watched Somebeachsomewhere make history at Confederation Cup XXXII, at Flamboro Downs, just outside of Hamilton Ontario. Of course we had to park a half mile away from the Grandstand as we were late arriving (at about 12:30 pm) on Sunday August 17th, 2008 - but we soon got inside the air conditioned venue with plenty of time to place our bets on the Confederation Cup XXXII Final! More on that later. My date went to fin [View Full Entry]

On Weds June 25th, 2008 there was live thoroughbred racing at the Woodbine Racetrack in Toronto Ontario. Because of an ongoing labor dispute between the casino security workers and the Ontario Lotteries and Gaming Commission, which has established a picket line at the gate, the evening was very poorly attended. My group sat together quietly making bets and perusing the menu in the final minutes before the first race. At 6:30 pm we had hurried upstairs to the popular Champions patio desperate to get what we assumed would be the last available outdoor seating... only to discover the well appo [View Full Entry]

Although I generally dislike foreign films, a good story makes subtitles disappear. Mongol is every bit as good as, and perhaps better than most Hollywood historical epics. Yesterday I watched Mongol in a sneak peek screening that I won free passes for at the Varsity Theater in the back of the Manulife building at Bay and Bloor in downtown Toronto. This is probably the only place in Toronto where this movie is playing right now; its in 'select theaters' onl [View Full Entry]

Morgan Spurlock is no Michael Moore, but his latest documentary Where in the World is Osama Bin Laden? is a very digestible, if not 100% respectable, piece of foreign journalism that does a pretty good job of educating viewers on the realities of the Middle East, and how Islamic fundamentalism thrives in poverty, and most importantly how religious fundamentalism breeds radicalism. Most Americans are sick of hearing that the Middle East is a mess and it's all their f [View Full Entry]

While enjoying myself in a cafe at Bay and Charles yesterday, I encountered an old friend who works in the movie industry and he invited me to watch [url=http://lifecaptureinc.com/wc/ct.php?i=005_TheStoneAngel_B&u=http://www.alliancefilms.com/en/89/details/display/11360/]The Stone Angel which is the feature film adaptation of Margaret Laurence's book by the same name, and will be in Limited Release on May 9th, 2008 and wide release on May 24th.

The Shop-for-Profit on eBay Game naturally engages veteran shop-a-holics and bargain hunters, and on some level it intrigues every member of capitalist society. This practice wasn't possible five years ago - only the internet and modern technology make it doable today. There are two popular strategies: Buy low. Sell high. The object is to pick a winner, and buy something in a local market that will sell for more money on eBay. The fun and challenging competition is a healthy mixture of knowledge, physical exercise, and L [View Full Entry]
