    • Most Googled 2008

      Hello Boomers! With a new year ahead of us, I figured it was a good idea to look back at the zeitgeist of 2008. And what better way to do that than to look at Google's most searched terms of the year? Everybody Googles, and in 2008 they Googled the obvious political subjects like Barack Obama, Sarah Palin and Joe the Plumber. Familiar names to Boomers, but people also Googled people like Miley Cyrus, Danity Kane, and the Jonas Brothers. Frankly, I have no idea who these people are. Do you? Wha...

    • At the Movies 1

      Welcome Boomers! I know it's an old observation, but I'm still shocked at the price of popcorn at the movies today. But the prices aren't the only thing that's changed. Movie theatres used to be ornate palaces, now they're big boxes in minimalls, full of people yapping on their cellphones and eating disgusting nacho cheese. Anyway, I think I've had it, have you? Stay tuned this week for Part 2, where I take a look at one of the big holiday movies of the year.

    • Hot Deals

      Boomers, there's a recession going on, and while many may be suffering, there are some great deals to be had out there. For example, a Dodge dealership in Florida offered a special buy one get one free deal. Not for shoes or sweaters, but for pickup trucks. It blows my mind. Anyway, I wish other big purchases went 2 for 1. But you know, as my mother (and maybe yours) always said... nothing is ever really free.

    • Bird Day - Sean Avery

      Boomers, it's Bird Day again! Today we flip the bird to Sean Avery for making crude comments about his ex girlfriends, and further flip the bird to the whole NHL for suspending him while there is so much worse going on in the world of hockey. What do you think Boomers? Is there anyone you'd like us to flip the bird to next? Let us know!

    • Bird Day Bush

      Boomers, once again it's Bird Day! And this time I'm flipping the bird to you. Well, not all of you but some of you. Those of you who voted for George W. Bush in 2000 and/or 2004. You put this guy in charge, and I'm glad he's finally out of the way after 8 long years. Try not to do it again.

    • Voice Dialing

      Boomers, I'm sure a lot of you have BlackBerries, and I'm sure that like me, you love the voice dialing feature. Well, I used to love it anyway. Recently it's been giving me a bit of trouble. Take a look and let me know if this ever happens to you.

    • Bob Dylan

      Boomers, I went to see Bob Dylan a little while ago in Kingston Ontario. It was strange to see him in such a small venue, but he still played his best. At least, I think he did; his lyrics were mumbled and I got a bit of a contact high from the tokers in the audience. You know, I missed Dylan's success in the 60s, but now I'm discovering him all for myself. But why would he play Kingston? Well, I've got some ideas. Let me know what you think.

    • Laughing Pundits

      Hello Boomers. As you may know, I'm obsessed with television pundits. I can't get enough of their screaming fights. Grown adults acting like children over politics, I eat it up. My favourite thing is when one of them is making their point, the opposing pundit is often laughing derisively. I love it. I've put together a little video to demonstrate. Enjoy.
