and apparently they are bringing back Dion Phaneuf's girlfriend. If only Jack Bauer could teach him defense and my 2009 wishes would come true.

 

 

 

Its 2 cents per mile just to transfer your miles !

 

That's alot: 25,000 points to fly cross country or to the US.

 

That's a $500 transfer fee for a flight plus applicable taxes. (and you don't have any points left)

 

Why would you transfer your aeroplan points? Its like donating them to air canada. I know its Christmas but this doesn't make any sense.

 

 

Actual hockey talk during a live NHL game:

 

Person next to blog  "I hope they Wild score the next goal because the Flames are playing them too rough and its not fair."

 

Person next to blog  "The Wild are so small, they don't play wild, they play lame"

 

Person next to blog   "Do the Wild players make less money because they don't seem as good"

 

 

Costco sells a steriod crab known as the Alaskan King Crab. They are pretty awesome.

 

 

There was a campaign this holiday to have "lobster christmas" instead of turkey.

 

 

Maybe its the king crab next year, they are real easy to remove with a pair of scissors.

 

Just tried out this

 

 

 

its pretty fun and super easy to use. Instead of picking up a Civic , pick up one of these Honda's.

 

Meet me at my blog sharp at 11:59 pm.

 

Just finished a boxing day shopping with the family. Hit futureshop at 5am with Mrs. Claus to get a macbook which also turned into a new cellphone, and bunch of other things. Then hit downtown with the parents. Shopping with parents is well interesting. My mom bolted to Holts to see if her jacket she bought a couple of weeks ago was on sale, it wasn't so she was happy she could finally remove the tag. She then proceeded to chitchat with salesladies, most people wander around the shops feeling material of clothing and then quickly checking out the price tag. My mom likes to talk on boxing day. "Have you meet my older fatter son?"

 

My dad and I went to the men's section where my dad tried on a sports coat. The first coat was a Paul Smith and then he asks me if it was any good. I didn't want my dad to wear cooler sports coats than me so I say'd it was just okay so he got the one next to it instead. Whats funny, is during the boxing day "madness" is people are just crowded like at a bar filled with just guys but no one is actually buying anything just looking at pricetags and making comments.

 

The deals at other retail chains were pretty pathetic:

 

Dear stores,

 

Don't hid the "good merchandise" or pretend it is sold out when it is just in the back. Just say that isn't on boxing day rather than just lie.

 

"Sorry, we only have a women's size 12 in that particular model" (I heard this twice at two different stores)

 

So what did your blog end up on boxing day? Just some primerib and some gigantic costco shrimp.

 

always roast it at a lower temp rather than the searing at high heat method then letting it cook at a low temperature later ...

 

I'm about to open presents in alittle while ... I'm just hoping I got Scarlett Johansson's tissue for Christmas.

 

Set it and forget it. I'm just about to take the prime rib out of the oven.

 

Mrs. Claus : "Should we think about getting this?" as she steps out of the dressing room

 

Santa: "Let us think it over later"

 

Some stranger in background "That looks beautiful on you"

 

Santa "Damit lady, you just cost me some money"

 

 

Sirloin roasts for $5 bucks. You can either made a nice roast beef for the holidays or just go home and slice them into nice sirloin steaks. I made 4-6 nice sized steaks out of one roast. That's a dollar a steak and its not rump, its sirloin. I know I know but you never eat sirloin. Well, its the holidays and if you eat rib eye steak everyday, you might turn into Mike Tyson.

 

Did you know GM cars are very popular in China, specifically Buicks? They are like Lexuses over here ironically.

 

 

 

The current bid is at $2,150 US for this.

 

 

Somewhere a mad scientist is giddy and going to try to replicate our dear Scarlett Johansson and sell it for much more than $2,150 and no one will be thinking its a waste of money.

 

 

My blog is running out of air miles so don't be a scrooge and donate some to me for Christmas so we can start planning our 2009 itineraries.

Why does no one ever put on a seatbelt in a cab, yet always put one on in any other car as a passenger?
