If The World Could Vote...

This Tuesday Americans go to the polls and it seems that everyone has an opinion on who should be the next President (especially in this upcoming election). It would be nice if everyone who was educated (and opinionated) could cast their vote since this decision will effect the rest of the world in different ways.

A 22 year old from Iceland decided to give the rest of the world a voice, he created a website that allows you to cast your vote for entertainment purposes only, and this site has reached 571,641 people in 206 Countries.

So, go vote, it'll only take two seconds, you don't have to get in your car in the cold fall weather, you don't have to register nor show ID, just click away and see the results of how the rest of the world would like this election to go.

Music Newz: Led Zep Vocalist Search

Here's the link to the article I talked about on Music Newzzzzzz. Just click on the title of this post!

Remarkably... I'm posting this before I even read the story! Weird.

Do the Glowing Mountain Dew

On Wednesday’s (October 22) Myth Stoppers we are going to attempt to recreate the glowing Mountain Dew. This looks fun, and what a wicked glow. Now it may glow, or it may blow up, or it may do nothing at all. I have the Mountain Dew, baking soda and peroxide (now I just have to remember to bring it all in) and we will test this out on Myth Stoppers Wednesday morning around 7:40. If you have never heard how to make Mountain Dew glow – watch the video below and tune in at 7:40 to see if it is real or some fancy footwork (and by footwork I mean artwork). I will post our video here once we complete the big experiment.

Sauer Play

Hey, everyone.

I was so riled up after yesterday's 4-1 win for the Habs over the Coyotes that I had to get something off my chest.

Over 20 years ago when Wayne Gretzky was starting to lead an Oilers dynasty, one of the reasons he got so many scoring opportunities is because opposing players would be reluctant to touch him. He got slammed into the boards too aggressively, Glen Sather would send out his fourth liners to make the perpetrator pay.

Fast-forward to last night where, down 2-0, Phoenix d-man Kurt Sauer smashes speedster Andrei Kostitsyn into the boards and gives him (likely) a concussion. An instant after it happened, the crowd knew that Sauer would have to pay the price courtesy of new Canadiens acquisition Georges Laraque. What ended up happening had me seething at The Great One, or as some may call him today, The Punk Coach.

Of course, the next time Sauer gets sent out onto the ice Charbonneau (who, I might add, completely bottled up Gretzky in the '93 cup final) sends out Laraque, and Gretzky should have seen, known and respected what was coming given how many times a player like Laraque would seek Vengeance on his behalf. So what happens when Laraque and Sauer get close? Every other player on ice for the Coyotes grabs Georges and holds him back. You don't have mass organization like that without some input from the coach. Then, with Laraque in the box for a roughing penalty as a result, Sauer gets sent back out - and decides he'll take his lumps against the much smaller Tom Kostopoulos and takes care of him in short order. Yeah, that shows a lot of courage, Kurt. Finally, Todd Fedoruk actually makes a leadership choice to face up to what's coming, and gets pummelled by Laraque. Fedoruk should never have been in that position.

I cannot believe the player most famous for being protected by a fourth line wouldn't allow Montreal to do the same to the offending player responsible, and pretty much threw his assistant captain under the Number 17 Express Bus. 99 needs to be more respectful of the rougher side of hockey, especially considering how it bailed his ass out so many times.

Shame on you, Wayne.

Manty Hose


I am not making this up – a company is trying to market pantyhose for men, saying that theyare practical in some ways “they prevent chafing, for example, when horse riding or cycling, but it's also a good alternative to bulky underwear if you need some warmth”.

Lock tried some on and seemed to like them he found them soft and silky - Chris on the other hand wasn't such a fan of Lock wearing them, I warned him of when they start to ride and slide, so he took them off.

If you would like to buy a pair, or if you are just curious, you have to at least be curious, check them out at e-mancipate.net.


They ask the question, that I also ask to you “Is pink pantyhose too femmy for men?” Femmy? What do you think?

Yearbook memories

From the Mail Bag this morning, Lea formerly of BCI had said her boyfriend was surprised to see she still had her yearbooks from high school and asked if she were alone on this. She is not, we (Bob’s Breakfast) all still have our yearbooks from high school. Do you?

We also thought it would be fun to post some pictures from our high school year books:
