Wow, we’ve had some pretty crazy storms of late here … here’s a quick video we shot this evening … sorry for the language! Check out the picture below the video …

We headed to Montreal to see our nephew Giancarlo play in a Hockey Tournament this weekend.
It was possibly the most exciting hockey game we’ve seen in a while (we are in Toronto after all). Giancarlo was the coolest guy in the building (certainly more than can be said of an over-excitable Aunt Nelly). Giancarlo was awesome, leading the team with a shutout in the gold medal game to win the tournament.
Go Chazy!

With awesome photo’s like this one from Thomas Hawk (you can find more of his great photography here) we’re thinking that a trip to San Francisco would be great.
Has anyone been? Do you have any tips, any places that we have to see? Leave a comment or send us an email.
Not sure it makes me want to buy chocolate – but this made me laugh.
Interesting counterpoint to the Global Warming debate and Al Gore’s Inconvenient Truth. Suggests that facts are being manipulated, that challenging Global Warming facts has become unacceptable, and that the West is using the Environmental agenda to restrict growth in developing nations. Interesting.
You probably don’t know – and not by accident – that Converse is a wholly owned subsidiary of Nike. Yes, the Nike of sweatshop infamy (unfairly, since Nike now has some of the best business practices in the industry, but lasting perceptions have power). For consumers who care about such things, it looks like this:
No wonder that the Nike Store doesn’t mention Converse and Converse marketing doesn’t mention Nike. If people knew that Converse was a division of Nike it wouldn’t be as cool.
This is from a great blog The Long Tail from the author of the book of the same title. I love these did you know that Mazda is actually Ford, or KFC and Taco Bell are owned by the same company.
Have to say this example was a surpise.
My brother Wil, is marrying his sweetheart Em today.
Congratulations Wil and Em. We wish you all the best, have a fantastic day, enjoy every minute of it – because it really flies by!
I have previously been fairly averse to napping, catching 40 winks or having a doze during the day. Nelly, on the other hand has always been a big fan… perhaps it’s something to do with her mediterranean background… but she can turn a nap into a whole evenings entertainment.
It seems, that I am now beginning to see the light. With what feels like less than 10 hours sleep in the last 7 days napping has taken on a new found attraction. Having a sleep with all the family is a downright productive use of my time.
Jeez… we are tired!
