I don't have the impression that Stein is a creationist; just that he sees unanswered questions in science and says "God!". The problem for me is that while it's perfectly legitimate to believe that ...

Nicole28 - because interviews with taxi drivers are a great way to get taxi driver's opinions, but a lousy way to gather empirical evidence demonstrating that cabbies are mistreated by police....

I think a case could possibly be made that the execution here is better than the series where TTC cops and riders stare uncomfortably at each other, but they're still extremely weak on concept. I hav...

For the record, I wasn't really driven into a white-hot fury by this ad, I just used a serious tone because it was more fun to write that way. Slow news day just about covers it. That said, it's a lo...

Holy cow I don't know how I did that... I am proudly familiar with the Motorhead oeuvre. Now fixed - thanks ...

Just in case anyone is super interested in SYTYCDC, as we afficianados call it, there's also a photo gallery of limber hopefuls in the Sun....

@rek; Absolutely, and no one ever compliments me on the coat of thick dark hair all over my lithe body....

"But (s)he's not dead, yet." No, she just wishes she were....

But I heard it on 680 news...anyway, the Leafs site says they won the CUP in 32,42,44,47,48,49,51,62,63,64,67 - 11 times. Is this one of those sports fan subtleties like they were champs in some othe...

@ n0wak - I stand embarrassed and exposed as the bandwagon-jumping fake soccer fan that I am. I have made the change accordingly....

As advertising, it's a lousy strategy because to the reader just casually skimming NOW (which, let's face it, is the only way NOW can be read) it looks like another iPod ad....

I don't really know - the training thing is an assumption based on the fact that the intersection doesn't really warrant two crossing guards. However, the older guy was out there alone this morning so...

Yeah, me too. I hope I'm that cheerful in my retirement years....

Man, Spacejack, you are preaching to the choir. Since I don't see this story going away anytime soon, I'd like to actively solicit reader contributions for amusing commentary on fuel costs. You may,...

These are like 2 blocks from my house on a street that I walk down every single day and I never noticed them. In fact I think I may have tied my dog to one of them. I really have to start paying att...
