Robert Plant
Posted: 4/15/2012 1:57:28 PM

Someone once told me that he could actually do live what he did on the records waaaaaaaaaaaaay back in the early days but his voice just gave out .


I always wondered if that 1975 car accident in Greece had done some long term damage to those pipes.

New Van Halen song
Posted: 4/15/2012 1:27:04 PM
I don't care for the song or the rest of the album. A really big disappointment overall.

Bad enough Michael Anthony was kicked out of the band & is not part of this reunion.

Michael Bryant and Darcy Sheppard
Posted: 5/26/2010 8:03:38 AM
The executive summary into the Bryant case at the link below.

I read a comment in another forum that, if reincarnation exists, that Sheppard would probably come back as a camel because of his habit of spitting & drooling.

Interesting read:

G20 Summit 2010 in Toronto & G8 Summit in Huntsville
Posted: 3/24/2010 2:53:37 PM
The G20 summit is coming to Toronto in late June (G8 will be in Huntsville). Some of the details have been released. It looks like a bigger security setup will be involved than what the Vancouver olympics had. It also overlaps the Gay Pride festivities & a homestand with the Toronto Blue Jays.

Anybody here live and/or work in the downtown core (maybe even the Huntsville area)? Any contingency plans for getting to/from work/home/school?
Maybe just take a vacation until its all over?

Ann Coulter
Posted: 3/24/2010 4:15:12 AM
Ann Coulter is in Canada on a speaking tour. She had a previous stop at the University of Western Ontario, last night at the University of Ottawa (cancelled) & a scheduled appearance at the University of Calgary on Thursday.

The speech at the university of Ottawa was cancelled apparently due to security concerns from protesters. A letter from an academic VP was delivered warning her ahead of time about laws against hate speech in Canada.

Do you think she has a right to speak her mind in Canada?

Wither the CD?
Posted: 3/5/2010 3:15:43 AM
I will continue to buy CD's as long as I possibly can. Personally, I just enjoy owning something concrete as opposed to paying for a download.

I'm the same.


For some years now, record companies have released new CDs that are sometimes packaged with limited edition extras (dvds, extra cd(s) of live music, extra tracks, or just featured artwork etc) in order to try keep interest in cds. Even as far as releasing limted "tour edition" cds with extras in various markets. In the long term, probably a lost cause.

Ontario is in Canada still right?
Posted: 2/13/2010 3:34:48 PM
I checked the online programme of the opening ceremonies. I think you're talking about the cultural section. I kinda see what you mean. There was a tribute to Atlantic Canada and the West. There was actually a tribute to the north, the "Hymns of the North."

I think singing is a form of artistic presentation or expression.
Nikki Yanofsky (from Montreal) did a daring version of O Canada and, IMO, pulled it off very well.

Posted: 2/13/2010 6:09:41 AM
I dunno.

I think there was some "representation" from Ontario/Quebec.

There was Garou (francophone singer from Quebec) who did a Ginette Reno song (another Quebecer).
The olympic flag carriers included Julie Payette (Quebec), Bobby Orr (Ontario), Barbara Ann Scott (Ontario), Romeo Dallaire (Quebec), & Jacques Villeneuve (Quebec, sort of).
Bryan Adams was at least born in Ontario (Kingston).
Of course, there was Wayne Gretzky who originally hailed from Brantford, Ontario.

I thought Gaeten Boucher would have been somehow part of the festivities. But he was a torch bearer in Quebec.

Now mind you, most of the aforementioned don't even live in Canada anymore but I don't it matters which part of Canada the members of the opening ceremony (or the athletes for that matter) are from when presenting Canada on the world stage.

just my 2 cents...

Spend 20 years in Toronto than travel to newfoundland or go out to the country somewhere, you will see


I agree. I've spent most of my time in Toronto.
I've actually travelled to places like Newfoundland (and other parts of Canada) and notice a difference in people's disposition. I had chalked it up to life in the big city. Everyone seems busy or in a hurry. Maybe they are.

The TTC & Adam Giambrone

I have and sometimes do us the TTC and I have never seen a passenger harrass a TTC employee so that's crap.


Its not.
I've witnessed drivers assaulted, threatened with death, spat upon, accosted, etc. Mind you, I've seen some bad behaviour from TTC drivers & collectors (and yes, I have been on the receiving end of such). But I've watched many more examples of bad behaviour from my fellow TTC traveller. Not just against the employees themselves but with TTC property (vandalism, graffiti, littering, trespassing) & especially with other TTC patrons.

The TTC & Adam Giambrone
Posted: 2/10/2010 3:47:36 PM
I haven't seen such a spate of negative publicity against the TTC. With a collector sleeping on the job, a debate over drivers & their bathroom breaks, a call by union head Bob Kinnear to stop harassment of his workers, and a TTC commissioner dropping out of the mayoral race due to his "youthful indiscretion."
Plus a mayor who is nowhere to be seen.

Is the recent publicity against the TTC deserved?

Are TTC employees being treated unfairly?

Does the fault lie with the union or mgmt or both?

Should Adam Giambrone resign as TTC commissioner?

Is the TTC really the "better way" anymore?

Album of the decade
Posted: 1/19/2010 10:57:55 AM
I think it is very relevant to debate when the decade begins or ends, especially when someone puts up an "Album of the decade" thread. After all the reality of the matter is the decade still has another 11 months to run and no matter how you spin the subject this is the REALITY.......


You're right. There will probably be oodles of music to be released in the next 11 months that will completely make today's top 10 list totally unrecognizable/irrelevant and call into question the already posted suggestions made about the previous 9 years. Why is thread here now!? Such a pointless endeavor!

Proroguing The Federal Parliament
Posted: 1/8/2010 1:21:36 PM
PM Harper has shut down parliament. Instead of coming back January 25th, the house won't sit until March 3rd.

Now, the opposition parties, university political scientists and newpaper editorial boards have spoken out against this move. There's also a facebook page set up.

It allows Harper to:

Delay Commons committee proceedings including the one that was looking into that Afghan detainee situation.

Allows to appoint new Senators and therfore increase his influence over Senate committees.

Have a "politics free" high profile during the winter olympics.

More positive spin on their throne speech & budget in the period leading up to March 3rd.

Does anyone believe this is bad for the country? Doesn't it matter to you if parliament is sitting or not?

Album of the decade
Posted: 1/7/2010 1:25:00 PM
Even if people are correct about the decade really ending December 31, 2010, I think enough time has passed by (2001-10) to make a reasonable top 10 list (for anything).
