EuroSport World and Telelatino or TLN
TLN U SUCK In addition to a Saturday afternoon game, TLN (Telelatino, Cogeco Cable 33) used to broadcast 3 Serie A soccer games every Sunday at 9 and 11 a.m. and 2:45 p.m. I was spoilt by TLN and really looked forward to Serie A action. In addition TLN used to show EUROPA League … Continue reading

Yesterday I opened the second bottle of the RJ Spagnols’ Italian Super Tuscan which I bottled in March. It is still young but shows great future – a definite keeper.

The following “Try me” knives where pointed-out (pardon the pun) to me at a Real Canadian Superstore. They’re amazing really. What do you do, take ’em out of the package and knife someone to see if they’re worth the purchase. Dumb name for a knife if you ask me.
