The Hour

If you are not catching The Hour with George Stroumboulopoulos on CBC or grabbing the latest podcasts from iTunes why not?
Anyone who is a fan of Muchmusic for the last 10 years can tell you what a very talented and educated creature this man is. Not too mention funny as hell! During this writer's strike the creative team of The Hour has created some mini-dramas called "2" which can be downloaded for free on iTunes, adding once again some humour to the weird world of broadcasting.

Hatchet Old School American Horror


How can you go wrong with a cast that includes Robert England and Tony Todd?
Simply, you can't!
This movie is gory and typical in older horror style. A group of people (not teenagers!) are on a haunted tour of a swamp. The tour goes terribly wrong from the start as an older couple get bit by a gator. As soon as the blood hits the ground something even worse starts to prey on them.
There is a small twist at the end that makes this in my view the next series of horror.
The version I rented actually had a red rental box.

Classic Diva



I was hanging out in SL with a buddy today, and we decided to go old school with our characters.

There we are as the Munsters and here I am as the Bride of Frankenstein.

How's that Writer's Block they asked

Bad once again. Seems like I will have two days where I am just flowing with creativity, and then another month of nothing. Decided few days ago to go out and get something to inspire me. So I bought a groovy velvet-like material covered notebook, a fountain pen, and a new dictionary/thesaurus set. Whoo-who! That's living on the wild side now isn't it?
Hasn't helped much.
Brick Walls couldn't get any harder then the ones in my mind right now.

Can I have my Internet without the smut?

Fine I am a Prude. But really, everything I turn to lately is all about sex. Wither it's about not getting it, how to get it, how to improve it when you do get it or just to be shocking. Some of us don't want sex shoved in our faces 24/7. Even websites that say they are PG Rated are still over run with X Rated items.
My worst complaint is in SL. I am a person who does not participate in the S/M lifestyle, it's not something I want. But yet everytime I bump into those who do, they expect me to "play by their rules" Just ain't gonna happen. Just like I don't expect you to play by mine. But that brings up another topic Respect.
The line we are drawing is one that is zagging because no one seems to want to bend to be respectful of anyone else as of late.
So No I do not go into places I know to be overly sexual in nature. But at the same time please do not tell me to call you "Mistress Blah" if we are in a business meeting about something that has nothing to do with your personal life. You will just end up getting pissed off when I say "no".

The Good, the Bad, and the I want to Strangle

Here is me at the SL Newspaper Meeting and me at another Social Gathering in a Winter Wonderland.








Okay so this is my week in Second Life.....
-Decided to rent some more land to create a Garden
-Was dragged all over SL to events and groups
-Went to a few parties with my editors
-Had to ban crazy neighbours from my land cause of noise
-Got invited to a few fashion shows
-Got dragged into an interview that never happened.

I also joined the Second Life Profiles. So now I am on yet another myspace/facebook style place this one just for SL. It's been a busy week, managed to get my two articles a week done for the sl newspaper, and a start on this week's batch. The Garden was a project I was wanting to do for awhile just didnt have the chance before, the theme is Blood and Roses. Little bit of Jane Austen little bit of Dracula.

Also Joined a very elite new club. Yes it is sad but true, I have more of a life in Second Life then I do in real life.

Imapct Review of the Week

Review for Nov. 29 2007

Wasn't sure I was going to do one this week but here we go.....


Scott Hall made it 4weeks in a row in ICP! gear. (two different shirts as one segment was taped for last week's show)

Robert Roode is finally getting the push he deserves. I have stated it before that I am not a fan of Booker T, but that is just the talent needed to pit against Roode. Robert Roode is a strong talent that can make anyone look good wither heel or face he knows what he is doing at all times in that ring. Booker T is a "superstar" in the business (eventhough he was only used in the other company as midcard for the last year) so this adds some extra weight to the push of Roode right now. And can't help but notice they pulled back alot on the #1Fan storyline while he was in his match with Booker T. I think that was a good idea to be honest. We all know it was Booker T's "match" ;giving a push to the #1Fan story would just not been right at this time.

What is going on with the beer drinking? I am lost on that one. Why of all things would you promote drinking in such a way? Yes, I get that they want to set up a reason for them to have a few matches, but really drinking? Here is my view on that (and I will say this slow for the drinkers who might not catch me) you are pitting a Canadian vs American in a beer drinking contest of watered down American beer. Of course the Canadian will win. Yes well all knew the bottle to the head was coming, but didn't think that they would film all the blood so hungerly. My Loonie is on Eric Young for this feud .

And the MotorCityMachineGuns! have upped Team3D once again, this time with Twinkies. Yes you heard right, they stuffed and smeared twinkies all over Bubby-Ra and Devon. I hope the X-Division comes out on top for this one.

Christian Cage vs Kurt Angle is all good but still too much in the mindgames. I am a big fan of Cage and would like to see him back ontop. This storyline is still in the mix and needs to uptempo.
