That Was Quite a Show, Very Entertaining...

The TTC sprung a good surprise on the city and went on strike at midnight today. The Mayor is about to order them all back to work instead of paralyzing the city. Although there was no 48 hour notice given, the head of TTC said that workers were getting threats the last time they served notice of strike. If they were scared of threats back then, just wait until the public gets to see them now!! TTC drivers will have to have security guards on all trains and busses just to ensure their safety! Eeeeediots.
Went to go see Harold and Kumar 2 tonight. I think I split my spleen open laughing so hard!! If you are weak of stomach, or easily offended, don't go! They pretty much took shots at every visible minority stereotype, but still brought new humor to the table with it! Go see it, download it, buy it at Pacific Mall, whatever you have to do, it is absolutely Hilarious!! Two thumbs up! And Paula Garces....ROWR!!!!
The NBA Playoffs continue to entertain: The Sixers proved that they are in the playoffs to play, taking the lead over the Pistons 2-1. Eva Longoria must Not be working Tony Parker, because he just worked over the Suns with a career high 41 points and added twelve dimes. The Mavs finally showed up in their series, avoiding the series sweep by the Hornets.
Anyone in the market for a once-cool gadget store?? Sharper Image is up for sale. Yes, THAT Sharper Image!!
As if retail wasn't already bad enough, next Wednesday could see Bloomingdale's Flagship store workers go on strike! Can you imagine?
Uggs managed an 18% Profit Plus in Q1, but Columbia Sportswear fell 24% in Q1. Go figure that I've seen more Ugg boots on the street than Columbia jackets this winter. Now if only we could rid the market of those pesky Canada Goose jackets!!
Good news to my folks up North, the TTC Subway is expanding north to Vaughn over the next 7 years. Yah right, more like 14 years!!
Thinking about Lasik eye surgery?? Still about 1% of surgeries have bad side effects, and actually get worse! Personally, I'll wait until the long-term testing is finished before anyone pokes that laser in my eye, thanks!
The Globe and Mail just caught wind of Takashi Murakami. I've BEEN trying to told you all, but I guess someone is listening!!
Mixed news Duke fans, Hansborough is staying for his senior year, but Ty Lawson and Wayne Ellington are going to dip their toes in the NBA Draft waters. By not hiring agents, they can still come back to UNC, but good riddance to bad rubbish!

OMA: Still not quite sure on how to get kicks flown in from Japan yet, but these AF1 Crocodiles are killing me!! Nike SB "Moat" Dunk Mids, niiiiiiiice. Nike also brings the Japanese City Dunk Pack, I'll take the Tokyo Dunk!!
SOTD: Take a Bow - Rihanna
