"Twerking?" Why in my day we called it "Winding".

BTW, did anyone else wonder if Skyler really knew what was on that CD? I wonder if he didn't record two different "confessions." It's hard to imagine her going along with such an incredibly evil plan. I guess Walt's justification could have been it was like the USA and USSR pointing nukes...

Well, the Steelers are going to drop some and these teams get the AFC East and the NFC North. No reason that an average team can't get 5 wins from there.

And of course, since there's no money involved, I can afford to be bold.

Exactly! A friend of mine is doing this in Toronto for the 2015 Pan Am Games. He wants to rent it out to some rich Argentine freeloader. Hang on - who the hell gives a crap about the Pan Am Games? I say this as a Torontonian in all seriousness. Anyone who expects a run on seats or accommodation mus...

Nation Feel Fucking Awful For Woman Who Sits Between Steven Smith and Skip Bayless.

At press time, Bayless and Smith were screaming about whether Tim Tebow would fit into the Patriots offense along with Tom Brady while the woman was silently cutting herself.

On the one hand - Syria represents a strategic nightmare. ALL of the major players in the region are condensed in that little hell hole. On the other hand - the suffering seems to be reaching biblical proportions. On the other hand - any time the USA gets involved in the area, they piss off a lot of...

While it may seem as if I am picking nits, last night's episode kind of left me cold until the point when Jessie looked at his cigarette pack. THEN it really took off. The scene in the restaurant as well as Walt's confession... kind of contrived. Understand, I am only comparing the episode to other ...

Sometimes, an "issue" arises that causes me to lose respect for anyone who takes an emotional stance on either side.

This is one of those issues.

So Sydney Leathers did a porn tape (NSFW, even though it's from Gawker) with Xander Corvus who could have been exposed to HIV because he did a scene with Cameron Bay -- the chick who just tested positive and shut down the industry the other week or whatever. So yea. 'MURICA. And she'll blame Anthon...

he wants to live as a woman ? How did I miss that? Just got to say that the fact the Army released this picture that Manning sent to his therapist is reprehensible - at least based upon how organizations in a civil society are supposed to behave. So ultimately, the fact that the Army did this is no...

I finally watched it. Man. It might take a day or so to process. It's funny how my feelings about characters tends to run with how they are acting around Walt. With Skyler sticking by him in this episode, I like her again. I hated her when she was (justifiably) hating Walt and fucking her boss. And...

NJ says "you're welcome". Or "avec plaisir" or "bienvenue" or something like that. Love the file photo with that article. I haven't ever been required to show up at the Newark Federal courthouse and didn't recognize the statue, so with just the headline and a thumbnail...

Mayor Rob Ford visited the Canadian National Exhibition (like a crappy state fair held the last two weeks of August here in Toronto). Apparently he won a prize at one of the carny games. Also apparent is his lack of media advisors. http://storage.canoe.ca/v1/dynamic_resize/id/33629597/?size=500x500&...

Not sure if this counts, but as i am neither Christian, Muslim or Gay, I have to wonder why I constantly get ads touting dating services and themed cruises that are aimed for members of these three groups.

Methinks Facebook's targeted marketing algorithims need a bit of work.

Don't know how old you are, but it's always a good time to quit. I smoked a pack a day from 16 until two months before my son was born (16 years later). Hard as hell - you have my sympathy and my empathy. Three things helped me make it - 1) My wife - she would have killed me had I kept on. No joke, ...

Yes, that makes sense. Would lead to Walt's purification through the shedding of their blood.

As good as his crime fiction is, I have to tout his western stories as being classics of the genre.

Sad when a great writer dies, but his books will be red for a long, long time to come.

A great episode - the scene where Skyler saw what could happen (the baby being taken away from here) - will be seared in my mind for years to come. The final scene left me jumping off the couch: What will Jesse say to hank? What will hank offer Jesse? And if Jesse turns on Hank, what then? Oh man...

Sorry I touched a nerve with the Michael Keaton comment, but it's one that I will not retract. Personal taste of course, but Mr. Mom? , Multiplicity ? surprised that his star turn in Herbie Fully Loaded wasn't trotted out. We'll agree to disagree, but (in my mind) he is to comedy what Billy Joel is ...

Spurs stroll to victory. Not a thriller, but nice to see the new players looking decent. My highlight of the weekend was watching Arsenal collapse at home. Villa seems good, but that was a brutal performance - even before the sending off. And a thought about Crystal Palace - if they have to run a 40...

Hope I don't offend anyone... The USA was once the bastion of freedom. The model for many other countries to aspire to. In the last decade, it has become a nation that condones the use of torture and that spies on its own citizens - even when they have not broken any laws. And a country that feels i...

Larry David's Clear History sucks. Imagine a 90 minute long Curb Your Enthusiasm but instead of Larry david being surrounded by unpleasant Los angeles types, he is with nice, quirky rural characters who respond to his smart ass comments with smiles. It's a light comedy, so the fact that the plot is ...

As the military takeover wasn't technically a "coup," does that make the ongoing atrocities in Egypt simply "the birth pangs of a new democracy?"

Spot on Scottie. I too gave him the benefit of the doubt for a long time. Partially because our previous city government was so in bed with the city's labour unions (and no, I am not anti-union) that our garbage men were allowed to bring the city to its knees a couple of summers ago. Taxes kept risi...

Figured it's a good thread line for a discussion of some bad people. For example, Toronto's "Man Of The People" Rob Ford who keeps proving his critics right. Last weekend, he impressed the citizens of the city by showing up to a street festival pretty much after it was finished. But when h...

So, I'm listening to The Gunslinger , by Stephen King, the first book in his Dark Tower series. I listened to this one many years ago, but was never interested enough to go further into the series.

I know, I know - Fisher did the right thing for his players, but I also think that he may have been better served to just ignore what was said by Cleveland's homer announcer during a pre-season game.
