Don’t forget to visit my new blogs

by

Just a reminder to everyone. Remember that I’ve created a few new blogs and I’d love for you to come visit them occasionally.

If you are a fan of the hit TV show House you’ll love my new 451press.com blog Watching House. I’m busy filling it up with recaps of recent shows, stories about Hugh Laurie and even some old video of him on his hit British Television series, and other news stories such as Golden Globe nominations. Come visit. Tell me what you want to see there and I’ll try to make it a regular part of the new blog.

The other new blog is called Celebrity Scoop. I’m still feeling my way on that one but I’ve been writing about recent star sightings, breaking news, and occasionally about hot fashion trends. Check it out and give me some suggestions as to what you’d like to see there too.





I was interviewed by BlogTO

by

I completely forgot to mention that my interview was posted over at Blog TO. It’s a blog about all things Toronto and it’s fairly popular. They have a section called Blogerati and they regularly do interviews with fellow Toronto bloggers in that area.

I was pleased to have been contacted by them for an interview. I managed to plug a few of the bloggers that I like to visit in my interview as well. Check out the interview to see if I mentioned you.

Oh and in case I do happen to get some visitors from BlogTo. First of welcome to my humble little blog, and second – would you like to join the Toronto Bloggers Blogroll? Or if you live too far outside of Toronto .. like maybe Nova Scotia or British Columbia perhaps then you might be interested in Joining the I am Canadian Blogroll? They’re free to join for all Toronto or Canadian bloggers (even Canadians living in other Countries right now too).

Chicago Cubs spring training

by

Remember I was talking about how my family – siblings and their spouses – get together every year for some family related activity or holiday? I mentioned it in a post a couple of months back. Well my brother and his wife are baseball fanatics and they suggested that we go to the US and catch some of the major leagues spring training camps while we are there. Everyone has agreed. So that’s what we’re going to do.

We’re thinking about getting some Spring Training tickets to the Chicago Cubs spring training. They train in what is known as the “Cactus Leagues” Most of their games at the beginning of March are in Mesa or Phoenix Arizona which is fantastic because I’ve always wanted to go to Arizona. In Mesa the games are going to be held in Hohokam Park and the best seats for those games are right behind Home plate in section 100 row L. I think those will be the seats we try to get.

Wish us luck! I guess we’ll know in a few weeks if we are definitely going and we’ll try to get the best seats if possible.

Crack me up Friday

by

Tomorrow you should to go over to LifeCruiser and participate in her Crack me up Friday event. She’d love to have you come visit. Bring some funny jokes, hilarious stories and comments with you, or point her other visitors towards funny pictures and sites.

Have you been to a blog party before? I have and they’re lots of fun. Visit and see what it’s all about. I’m sure you’ll like it, and if you’ve never been over to visit LifeCruiser before you’ll find a great blog and blogger that I’ll bet you’ll want to visit again and again.

Oh and she’s up for a Weblog award for best diarist. Did you do me a favor the other day and go and vote for Mrs. Lifecruiser? If you didn’t you still can. Once today and once tomorrow- then the awards are over for another year.

Information site for DVD recorders and players

by

I’ve just learned of a site that’s just been launched that I wish was around last year when we purchased our DVD recorder. The site is called DVD Recorders and Players Guide and it’s full of information on DVD players, DVD recorders, DVD combo record and player systems, DVD home cinema systems, DVD TV combo systems, DVD Video combos, HDMI Compatible DVD Players, Portable DVD Players, and Types of Blu-Ray Disc Players.

If you’ve been thinking of purchasing a DVD recorder or player and wanted to learn more about a specific model or do a comparison between brands and models this would be a great site to visit. As I said I wish we’d been able to visit this site last year when we were picking out a DVD recorder for our system. We ended up getting an LG DVD recorder and I’m not happy with how we ended up having to hook it up to our complex HD TV and home theater. The quality of play back is not great because of how we ended up hooking it up.

There’s also a whole section on the new blue ray Disc players where you could find information about this new type of DVD format and products such as the Samsung Blu-Ray Disc Player. I think that anyone who is thinking of purchasing one of these items for Christmas, or perhaps someone who’s just received on as a gift over the holidays would do well to read this site and learn more about the model of their choice.
