I'm about to check out a video detailing the anomalous rules and regulations governing the sale of alcohol in Ontario. Perhaps afterwards I'll be able to answer the questions that inevitably arise when newcomers to the province discover the Beer Store.

The sweet life.

These folks seem to have things pretty much figured out...



I've noticed a trend, on this blog, to just embed videos. In order to shake things up a little bit, along side the video link in this post I'll also include a link to a fantastic looking recipe for tomorrow's dinner...

Check it out! I looks delicious!

That's why I make sure I never have any!

Ring-ding-ding-ding-dingeringeding!

Not a fan at all of any double entendres, but I've got to admit, it's catchy!

Makes you wanna cut and paste...

It's a weird one, but I'll be darned if I don't just love it.

Feel Inside (and stuff like that)

It was made for Red Nose Day and it's been online for over a year but I only discovered it the other week. Be warned, it's a bit of an ear worm...

Canada Day Film Recommendation

I just watched One Week staring Joshua Jackson and enjoyed it thoroughly. I thought it was a quirky and intelligent film and unashamedly Canadian. I would recommend it to anyone looking for something to watch surrounding our nation's 146th birthday.

The soundtrack is also pretty awesome. CBC Radio 3 had this to say about it...

"Michael McGowan, writer and director of the new Canadian film One Week, says that with this film, he wanted to "create a narrative that was also a love-letter to the county." Well, if his movie is a love letter, then the soundtrack is the mixtape he made for his girlfriend, Canada."
