What do you mean, Alex Shelley lost?

Lest Robert Roode kept his belt.  Isn't he like the only Canadian to hold that title?

And now, I must harass Canada post because there are some major issues with the mail and our building. To the bat-phone where I will sit on hold for the next hour which will eat up my phone minutes.

Post 949 Sat Feb 11th

Day before a ppv.
I'll be getting this ppv.  I don't normally have the chance to order them.

The X-Division match between Austin Aries and Alex Shelley... enough said.

Why am I mentioning it now and not tomorrow?  Well Spudguns, I'm off to mother's and hate fighting her for her computer. 
So, I am right this moment saying to all that is going to be part of the TNA ppv tomorrow night,  stay safe.

Friday morning Feb 10th

It's today's offering in my movie challenge.  Day 70.
I have not been able to shut up about it.  The theory is one that has been brought up more then once in my social circle back in the day when we were still in high school and college. Something that has drifted in and out of my own brain over the years. 

The box from hell

I need to draw a puzzle box.  From Hellraiser.  Okay, need is a bit much it's not life or death or anything.


Yes Spudguns, it's another tidbit for the movie challenge.  Who would have thought that the casseroles I did because of the Elvira movie would be my most popular post over there on the movie challenge blog? 
I would have thought the Coming-Attractions, or the posts about the movies that are playing right now in the cinema would be the most popular, but no.  Seems at the moment, I am wrong.
But you know what this does mean Eh?   That food is what 75% of the blogging world want to read about.

Have a bit of an idea I wanted to do to work in the Addams Family, but not sure I'm going to be able to pull it off. 

Um that's not..

Computer issues

I suppose it's time for a new thing-a-ma-gigger for the wireless.  It keeps crapping out and kicking me off my own network and onto the neighbour's.  The dude at Tbaytel who is suppose to be all keeper of the support help knowledge, told me on their end everything was listed as fine. And that it must be the transmitter
Um, hello, you did not take my name or account number how on earth can you know if it's all fine???


I just think he didn't want to have to deal with any real time consuming issue... but okay things got unplugged and replugged and seems to be okay now.   And yes, this happened just a few weeks ago too. Right after the new neighbours moved in and installed their internet.  Christ man, everytime someone installs their cable or phone or internet it seems to knock mine to the mat.

And the real kicker is, when you call about internet issues, the voice recording tells you to go to the Tbaytel website for information about any construction or service disruptions in your area.  

More winter Early spring

Seems the groundhogs yesterday were all a mixed bag.  Some of the fuzzy beasts saw their shadow some did not.  Well, what the hell do you expect, given they were all over the planet.  Different places at different times will have shadows and other will not. 
I ask why do we gauge the seasons by a rodent?

Anyways, yesterday was Imbolic.  A real holiday. 


The movie challenge is taking up more time then I was thinking it would. Am 9 weeks into the challenge and finally finding my footing with it. 
Now if I could only find my footing with my feet.  This past year has been one leg/foot injury after another for me.  I somehow managed to get a few strained muscles in my right ankle.  So you know, winter couldn't end soon enough for me.

I stopped off at the record store yesterday... we've already covered why I still call it a record store... to find out about the DVD release for The Rum Diary, and the one guy when he spotted me hobbling towards the desk just pointed to the poster for Twilight 4 then poof he was off to the back room before I got half my sentence out. 
My fault I suppose, I asked "When is the release for..."
But I left, came back a few minutes later when someone else was working and actually got my answer.  See smart right? Right.

So Twilight is getting that much traffic the employees at HMV don't even want to deal with people.  This is the part where I make a quizzical face and nod.

TB rant

I have no idea who the hell is running this city, but why the freal are you doing the dren you are?

For years whomever it is who flicks the switch when it comes to where Thunder Bay gets the American stations, they seem to think it's a game of musical chairs or something. 
We've had the American channels over the years off and on from Detroit.  Then we had them from Minneapolis.  Then we had them from Detroit, then Minneapolis etc etc.
Few months ago, you gave us the Detroit stations, saying it had to do with cost and the whole quality of reception.  Alright it we got used to it.  I secretly loved it, but then again I'm Team Detroit.  
Now, you decide that's not good enough and decide to out of the blue go back to having the tv stations from somewhere else. 
Would whoever it is running the city of Thunder Bay pick a plan and stick with it!  Cause right now all you're doing is sticking your finger up your arse.
