Because the logic of Cox Bloc is truly impeccable.

Fun Fact: I was a Habs fan all my young life until I moved to Toronto and eventually (somewhere around 1989) became a Leafs fan.

the book is apparently aimed at fans who thought the Macleans article from last year was great, but just wished it had been 200 pages longer and written by two NBA beat reporters. It features a front cover with a Leaf fan wearing a bag over his head and a very clever “$19.67″ price starburst, which we should all appreciate now since it will be covered by an “80% off” sticker by November.

This from Down Goes Brown who has a hilarious posting up eviscerating the upcoming book from Dave Feschuck which is supposedly directed towards Leaf Fans but we all know who the real market is: The anti-leaf nation.

Bonus: Down Goes Brown’s fake Brian Burke twitter account is loved by the media and it should be.

A local North Carolina Wal-Mart sells 10,000-15,000 per shift if BoE employee counts are close to accurate, and a customer (white male) at the closest one purchased 5,600 rounds just two weeks ago. Ammo sales are through the roof everywhere in the United States, not just along the southern border.

Impregnable? Probably too young to remember the Harris era when there were actual Conservative ministers from Toronto serving in the provincial cabinet. John Tory’s recent resignation and this gentleman’s personal ad on Cragslist are the two biggest reasons to believe the tide might be starting to turn.

BTW Craigslist dude. If Asian culture is so superior why do they so readily become entrepreneurs if given the chance? Hardly ready converts to the Liberal/NDP/Green tribe if you ask me.

He Score, He Shoot! has some wise words on the loss of Brian Burke as a potential candidate for the vacant GM job with the Toronto Maple Leafs:

Leaf fans will no doubt be disappointed by the news, mainly because they’ve been seduced into thinking that Burke was the best candidate. The Toronto media, subscribing to the belief that the next GM must be a “star,” merely plucked the name of the guy whose team last won the Stanley Cup, checked if he was from Ontario (or Rhode Island), and voila! There’s your new GM. Burke has certainly run his mouth enough to make himself a “star” among the 30 fat men who sit in NHL press boxes on a nightly basis, but is he the best man for the job?

I think the performance of the Dallas Stars makes the case for Doug Armstrong as Leafs GM a lot stronger. Especially since the Stars decided that building a good team wasn’t a worthy accomplishment and dumped him for Brett Hull earlier this season. I would also like David Poile of Nashville who has only built a contender from nothing. Saw it destroyed last year and pretty much rebuilt it from nothing. Plus he is apparently quite close to Cliff Fletcher and would apparently like the opportunity to work with him again. Cliff as President and Poile as GM wouldn’t be a bad idea.

Dominatrix Outfit Update:

Yesterday I had a post with the word “dominatrix” in it and it tripled my site traffic. That might say a lot about my readers. So I am putting an update into this and future posts until you get bored of it and go back to finding dominatrix info elsewhere.

Just to recap:

Rightgirl is posting saucy pictures of herself if you contribute 100.00 to a worthy cause.

I asked what it would cost for her to dust off her dominatrix outfit and model it.

Her response: I don’t know - she hasn’t actually responded.

Stay tuned for more exciting dominatrix outfit updates throughout the day, the week and the next millennium.

Girl On The Right has a unique fund raising activity currently on her blog.

For every $100.00 contributed to this worthy cause she will post a “saucy” shot on her website.

The current meme I have been tagged with is called “Six Unimportant Things”. Apparently you have to tell six unimportant things about yourself. Or something. It must be a popular meme because I have been tagged twice

I find this difficult because I am so gosh darn important that every little thing about me is magic.

However after some head scratching here’s what I came up with.

1. I do not drink caffeine or alcohol. I consider them as purely medicinal products and only use them as such - which is rare. Although my wife has been encouraging me to drink red wine. Apparently it is good for my “prostitute gland” or something.

2. I cannot eat Kraft Dinner. Even though I love pasta my stomach refuses all entry of “KD” If I was stranded on a remote island with no food but a lifetime supply of KD I would in all likelihood starve.

3. My arms are unusually long for my height which makes for all sorts of fun when being measured for a suit. It also makes me seem a lot more flexible than I really am.

4. I only like to sit in rocking chairs.

5.I have never seen a single James Bond movie in its entirety. I have seen bits of them but never a whole one. The same goes for every single reality show.

So now who to tag?

Kathy of course because I’ll bet she is full of quirks.
The Recruiting Animal - because anyone who is more animal than man has to have some interesting but unimportant things about him.
Rocket Jones because he needs something to blog about lately.
Mondo Sismondo because she is blogging again sorta and people should read her.

And as always on these things I pick one “alpha” blogger who is practically 100% guaranteed to ignore the meme so I pick Tim Blair

Today is a brand new holiday in Ontario declared by the Liberal government to enable people to spend more time with their families.

However since my birthday was only a couple of days earlier and also fell on this same (long) weekend I declare it to be Meatriarchy Day.

Celebrate it by consuming your weight in animal flesh.

“I’ve done the hot and heavy with men. It doesn’t interest me anymore. I’m looking for something more, something that’s deeper.”

This from a “bi-sexual virgin” who will be featured on an up and coming CBC documentary which will follow her and another young woman as they explore the seamy (or is that steamy?) world of forbidden girl on girl action. Although how this passes for taboo or forbidden in this day and age is beyond me.

And come to think of it if your dissatisfaction with former male lovers (which technically renders you a non-virgin BTW) leaves you looking for something “deeper” wouldn’t the solution be to find a more well endowed man?
