Happy Birthday!

Anyone else here planning on participating? Or, did you participate if you're after 9pm now? From the Earth Hour website: On March 29, 2008 at 8 p.m., join millions of people around the world in making a statement about climate change by turning off your lights for Earth Hour, an event created by th...

They've updated it:

Minghella's death was confirmed Tuesday by his agent, Judy Daish. According to reports, Mingella died of a hemorrhage after a routine operation on his neck.

Sad

Happy Birthday!

6" of fresh snow on the ground as of this morning, with another 10" or so in the next 2-3 days. *sigh* Will this winter ever end??

Thanks again, everyone! Blue treated me to a wonderful birthday yesterday. He took me out to a wonderful vegan restaurant (yes, this is a good thing for me :wink:) followed by a show at The Second City. I'd been wanting to go since moving to Toronto, but we somehow never found the time. It was a gre...

Thanks everyone!

This is brilliant:

Despite watching the Oscars with a somewhat obnoxious crowd, I really enjoyed the show this year. Jon Stewart was wonderful (Who else could make fun of the yawn-worthy "how we vote for the Oscars" video? How sweet was it that he had Markéta Irglová come back out to give her acceptance spee...

Sincere condolences, WSS. You and your family will be in my thoughts.

Shoveling makes my arms hurt. A lot.

Trade shows suck life out of me.

Beautiful, WSS!

We're still without much snow for now... *crosses fingers*

Testing out the new photo uploads with a photo of Blue and I with some friends at our New Year gathering. This photo is taken just after midnight as the snow started...

We had a costume party celebrating in the year of our choice - we were ringing in 1957.

Still have gifts to open from my mom tonight, but so far my favourites have been: http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/51TYXXY4DFL._SS500_.jpg And this book, which is proving to be much funnier than I'd originally thought: http://papercuts.tscpl.org/howtofix.jpg So far the best fix has been 'how to...

It appears to mean "drunken person"?

And "gato" means cat.

Here's what the front of our house looked like yesterday before we shoveled:

I bought "Leader of the Band" from iTunes a few weeks ago because it played on XM and I just knew that I needed to have it. I never knew many of his songs, but my parent's played his music periodically when I was little. Such a emotional songwriter.

RIP indeed.

Anyone else buried in the snow?

We probably got 25cm/10" of snow starting last night through this evening.

I kinda figured, but come on - it begged for comment

BlueChair wrote:Too bad he'll be best remembered as the guy who beat up Tina Turner.

Too bad? He was a wife beater. It's just fine by me that he be remembered that way.

Anyone else checked out Cute with Chris? So damn funny - this one isn't like most episodes, but had Blue & I hysterical last night:
