While it's true as I mentioned in the past I am very seriously STILL looking for an apartment/roommate in Mississauga that's one of the reasons I haven't been blogging much.The other reason I haven't been blogging a lot is due to my all-time favourite coffee shop nearby closing. That was the one and only place I could read newspapers and magazines as well as observe people and the surroundings

Sorry haven't been blogging lately. Seriously looking for an apartment and/or roommate. Anyways, the picture above is from a story in a recent Mississauga News This Week article.This couple won a major lottery prize twice. Once years ago and once not so long ago. Don't know about you but makes me wonder if God has his favourite people he'd prefer to win often and others who it seems God doesn't

Have you ever had a person approach you with a business-sized card? On the card it claims the person is a deaf-mute and is asking for money to give them. There was one time I gave $2. About 2 hours later I saw this "deaf" and "mute" person talking and it was obvious he could hear 100 per cent.I bring this up now because as I was checking my emails at this internet cafe another man(I won't say

Been searching for you wouldn't believe how long if I told you. Came across a South African newspaper called Mail & Guardian. You don't even have to be part of their newspaper staff and can blog for them. Okay not for them actually but they allow anyone to blog. They've since changed the blog part of their site which is now at Amagama.com for bloggers(they should've left it as it was because now

As already mentionede yesterday due to the other page taking too long to load I'm slowly moving the videos from that page to various posts on here. And because I really don't have anything to write, I want to but have nothing to say(does this mean all my rmabling so far is "nothing"?

I have a separate page with some of my favourite MySpace, YouTube, Google and other videos. But because I have lots there that page takes way too long to load. That page will be deleted eventually so what I'm going to do is at times move those videos to this blog and other blog posts here.

This is not part of any storyline. Sherri Martel who was with the then-called WWF(World Wresting Federation)now known as WWE(World Wrestling Entertainment)died at the age of 49. Way too young. She died of as-yet-to-be-determined causes says Jim Ross in his blog.I never met the woman but do recall her from watching wrestling as a kid(because my mom always watched wrestling so I've been hooked ever

This upcoming Sunday is Father's Day and with that in mind here is a YouTube video. A woman who has complaints about the types of greeting cards for Father's Day.Okay and I do have one complaint though not about Father's Day cards. My sister's birthday is on Valentine's Day. I know she's not the only person having a birthday that day so why doesn't Hallmark have a card saying Happy Birthday and

How many times have you heard of a major lottery winner winning $10 million or more and saying "I'm not quitting my present job." Well, there's one smart man, William Brush of Burlington, Ontario.He won $20 million in the Lotto 6/49 and is quitting his job. He and a bunch of others bought tickets together. His quitting is exactly how it should be done.Many of us, myself included, buy lottery

So Dan Rather says CBS News ratings are low due to Katie Couric being told to "dumb down the news" and "to tart it up." Uually I'm at work at 6:30pm so don't know about that but this week I set my VCR to tape one newscast 2-days ago.I thought she did a good job. But after Walter Cronkite left(I watched daily because my parents watched)I never watched CBS News when Dan Rather was there either.

This week in the Greater Toronto Area(GTA)there was a raid after a very lengthy investigation. Police caught 60 suspects and that means one less gang. And understandably while it would be frightening to see that wouldn't it be more frightening for children to live in such areas and see gangs and how the gangs operate?I mention that because on Fred Patterson's site he brings up many valid

Yesterday I was having computer problems(so what else is new?)so couldn't put this video here then. Today the computer problem's solved so about what I was saying at the time, of WWE's Vince McMahon thought to be dead. I don't think this should be part of the storyline.

Haven't been here in a week. On the computer that is. Still looking for a roommate and apartment in Mississauga. But never mind about that.

In the latest issue of The Mississauga News This Week in an article entitled "Festive summer promised for City Centre" Mayor Hazel McCallion was quoted as saying "Instead of going to downtown, it used to mean going to Toronto, now they can say they're going to downtown, to my Mississauga."I hate to break this news to you Madame Mayor but Mississauga has no downtown.

Harper says he's very busy but will meet with Bono at a later date.Many are saying that Canada should honour its promise to help Africa.

In today's Toronto Sun about a recent visit to Ontario by California Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger it says "The Governator, Arnold Schwarzenegger, made a strong impression on Canadians during his recent visit to the Great White North, producing poll numbers any politician would die for."Strong impression? Not for me. Don't get me wrong he didn't leave me with a negative impression or a positive

A 69-year-old man from Newmarket, Ontario climbed Mount Everest. While it's an incredible feat for someone of any age but especially that age, I missed the first part of the program but did hear Paul Mott(of The Motts, Paul & Carol)Show of CFRB say something to the effect of Mount Everest being no big deal and let's get on with something else. Agreed! But then I never cared for Mount Everest.

I'm b-a-a-c-c-k! It's been a few weeks of fun...NOT. For some reason I couldn't access this and couldn't post anything so I experimented with blogging on MySpace as well as too many other places to name so as mentioned earlier on I'll be rambling about whatever's on my mind at the moment.

Wanted to write about this sooner but never had the opportuunity and since it's still in the news may as well make a comment. So Paris Hilton had a petition on her official MySpace page asking she not go to jail. Too damn bad Paris.

Don't know about you but had my hopes up when I heard on the news this morning that MySpace now has a Canadian site. I thought "perfect." Maybe now I can get a MySpace account and network with newspapers and anyone with the connections to get me into a paper. However, I found out if you already have a MySpace account(the U.S. one)you're able to sign into the Canadian page of MySpace and I didn't
