The Nissan Cube is possibly the ugliest car I have ever seen. It's like a small closet on wheels.

For some reason yesterday I started to think about the ''big'' Marvel heroes that don't have aliterative names. Then told myself : ''I am such a geek''. That's pretty random ;-)

I'm moving into the basement of my in-laws while I work on restoring my new (read: OLD) house. My father-in-law considers himself a movie fan, but he likes the theatrical cut of Blade Runner, Family Guy, and he and his buddies quote Mel Brooks movies. How long before I begin to display murderous intentions?

I often wonder why Carlito made so many STUPID moves in Carlito's Way.....

and also, on an entirely unrelated note; why people cry and moan for the Summer weather to arrive only to complain by August that they can't wait for the Autumn.

It's really getting redunkulous - they're announcing 30 celsius this afternoon in Montreal - 38 with the humidex! A few years ago we had like two years in a row with no snow at Christmas- I was joking that I'd be able to tell my kids : ''When I was young we had snow'', but then we had a really nice winter last year.

Our summer had been completely terrible (averaging 10-12 Celsius and fog and rain) until about 10 days ago, when it just "switched". Now we're high 20's and sun, which is awesome - but i'm a high 30's man myself.

I've always been uncomfortable using a certain word usually addressed towards the female anatomy that starts with the word "P" and ends with "Y"... Lately, that has changed a little because saying Vagina during a hot and intense moment of passion is just kinda' weird.

A cold brew on a hot summer day after an afternoon of yard work, a walk in the park, and moving a goddamn fridge. That's an ice cold brew that's well earned.

I think the sun scorched the crap out of the back of my neck today...
