Nice work Santa!
Wow! It amazes me every year that The Jolly fellow gets to everyone in one night. I was watching the "Tracking Santa" Norad website, following Santa's route on Christmas Eve...very impressive. So where is Santa now? Relaxin' down south of course!

Avatar: simply amazing.
By far...the best movie I've ever experienced. AVATAR 3D was absolutely incredible. Jaw-dropping.
James Cameron's latest epic launched over the weekend and made $232 million worldwide -- $73 million in North America and $159 million overseas. It would appear the film is well on its way to paying off the estimated $400 million spent to make and market the film.... While the best non-holiday December opening is still owned by I Am Legend, film industry experts think Avatar could have beat that record had it not been for the winter storms on the East Coast, and I think it crush all records. Why? Because, like me...of those millions of people who went to see it, I'm sure more than half will be going back to experience it again. I can't say anything more but to do yourself a favour and...
GO SEE IT.

Who will be 2009 Person of the Year? Office Kitty Karaoke anyone?
Consider yourself lucky if your employer is throwing you a Christmas party this year. About half (49 percent) of businesses say they’re planning an employee holiday party this year, with 10 percent saying this year will be the first year they won’t have a party after years of having an event. So enjoy the experience of "Love Shack" karaoke with your boss while you still can.
Time Magazine will announce its Person of the Year tomorrow morning. On the short list is Apple CEO Steve Jobs; Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke; the Chinese Worker ("They are an increasingly influential group in one of the world's most powerful economies"); Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi; Stanley McChrystal, the commander of U.S. Forces in Afghanistanl; Jamaican sprinter Usain Bolt; and Barack Obama. I'm betting I know who it WON'T be...(rhymes with Smiger Smoods).

On the Set of "Fitz"
I finally got the call!
I had a chance to work on the set of "Meet Fitz", the series starting Jason Priestly, yesterday in Kentville! We were at the Cornwallis Inn, and if you were in Kentville yesterday, I'm sure you saw all the big trucks lined up. We shot a few different scenes for a an episode of the series. I can't give anything of the plot away, but it seems like it is going to be a funny series...for adults:)
It was great to see a lot of familiar faces and local actors in background roles. I got there right after the show yesterday morning, and was there right through until 8:30 last night. I was in a couple of scenes, and between takes there was a lot of sitting around. So if you get called to act as a background actor...expect to be there a minimum 12 hours!
It was a lot of fun though, and a great experience. Unfortunately cameras weren't allowed on set, so I couldn't take any pictures.
The crew was great and treated us very well, hopefully I'll be back!

The "Best Of/Worst OF" lists are starting to Roll in!
WORST INVENTIONS OF 2009...according to Time magazine
• Time Magazine has named NASA’s Ares Rocket as the Best Invention of 2009, saying it “dazzled even the skeptics.” But they also came up with the worst inventions of the year.
• The Smile Police: Employees at Keihin Electric Express Railway in Japan have their smiles scanned by software to maximize cheeriness
• The Jane Austen Monster Mashup Novel: It started with Pride and Prejudice and Zombies. Please let it end soon.
• Snuggies for Dogs: It's bad enough that humans wear "the blanket with sleeves." Do we have to put them on dogs as well?
• The Gas-Mask Bra: You have to admire the good intentions of the inventor who made a bra that converts handily into a pair of gas masks
• Computer Critics: A new standardized test in the U.K. will use software, not humans, to grade student essays. Shakespeare wept.
