The ancipation in the media couldn't be cut with a Chainsaw.

Well if there's one group that's excited about another election it's the Media. The joy of covering everything from debates to whistle stop tours is a joy that resounds across all the channels. Though I'll have to admit that it will be kinda nice to hear something political other than the coronation of Obama.

Of course on the bad side we'll have to sit through endless ads about what they'll claim they never really promised if actually elected. While I'm not a big fan of the US style attack ads it is kinda funny to see an ad that just says "My opponent is a terrible person who kills puppies" and never mentions anything about what the guy paying for the ad is doing or plans to do.

Of course the Greens and NDP can promise anything they like in their commercials because the chance of them forming a majority government is about the same as of John McCain being a cover model for a swimsuit issue. An energy efficient society by 2012 sure it's not like we'll ever have to weasel our way out of doing it.

As for the Liberals well it's pretty much a toss up. If they had a more dynamic leader (read anyone other than Stephan Dion) They'd probably have a good shot. But since they don't Harper would have to do something reallllllly crazy to not get back in with at least a minority government.

NHL Playoffs

Well It's that time of year again when hockey fans all over North America (ok who's kidding who, All over Canada) grab a two-four and a bag of something greasy and settle down in front of the TV to cheer for their favorite team, or it's substitue if their favorite didn't make it. This year as my Favorite team the Canucks and my back up team the Oilers didn't make it, I'm going hedge my bets and support 1 team from the East and 1 Team from the West. So Go Flames and Go Senators May you meet in the Final and really tick off Gary Bettman.

Giants win Superbowl.... Though I was really just watching for the commercials.

Best commercial: FedEx I really couldn't stop laughing at the Giant pigeons doing delivery. It had all the elements that make a commercial good. It's at least kinda about the product. It was inventive and it showed what would happen if you tried a competitor even if that one doesn't quite exist. Also seeing the disastrous consequences was really really funny.
