I haven't done any freelance writing (the kind that pays anyhow!) for quite awhile but through an old high school friend who works in magazine publishing, recently ended up with an assignment to write a profile of a world champion female kick boxer who happens to work in my hometown. I did the interview at […]

Saturday Snap – "Snapping An NHL Record"
I was going to do my usual weekly picture of Pace being cute but this NHL highlight is worthy of a video version of the Saturday Snap, I think. Tonight, the Bruins scored an NHL record THREE short-handed goals during one powerplay. Having just read a CalgaryPuck thread about NHL records that will never be […]
Five Pop Topics Round-Up
A few quick hits on my most popular topics… HockeyI really hate the Canucks and think it would be a travesty if one of the Sedin sisters won the Hart Trophy. I mean, a guy with a career average of 65 points a season gets a bunch of assists and is now one of the […]

The best suggestion I heard was that they were going to use current video editing techniques or another recently unveiled technology such as a hologram to have Terry Fox “run” into the stadium, symbolically […]
Friday Fun Link – Winter Olympics Begin (February 12, 2010)
Not sure if you heard but apparently the Wet & Rainy Olympics are in Canada this year and the opening ceremonies are tonight. The Olympics are once again a lightning rod of controversy and having them on our own doorstep has perhaps brought this home in a way that doesn't happen when they're in Italy […]

From demanding his “hockey shirt” (jersey) the moment he woke up to playing ball hockey in the living room non-stop throughout the day, I think we've […]
