Phil Loses His Mind: To Serve and Protect
http://philipsullivan.blogspot.com/2011/06/to-serve-and-protect.html
Friday, June 24, 2011. To Serve and Protect. I don't really have the energy to write much today, but I felt compelled to share/vent the disappointment I am feeling this morning. Depression, really. Aren't I a nice guy? In Toronto, the fall-out continues with regards to the absolutely insane G20 fiasco. No, not the fact the great Canadian Government (The "Harper Government" you say? From behind those fences, I doubt it. So what was the point of having it here, exactly? What is REALLY upsetting about this ...

Phil Loses His Mind: Tradition! (of the egg nog variety)
http://philipsullivan.blogspot.com/2009/10/tradition-of-egg-nog-variety.html
Thursday, October 15, 2009. Of the egg nog variety). I have an annual tradition. Every year, I buy the first carton of egg nog that I see. I like egg nog. Some people think it's revolting, but those people are ugly. Egg nog with rum? I look forward to that every Christmas. Of course, I usually have way too much and need a year to recover. So guess what I saw when I dropped by the grocery store the other day? So I picked up a carton, went home, and enjoyed my first egg nog of the season. Get off the phone!

Phil Loses His Mind: Awesome journalism
http://philipsullivan.blogspot.com/2010/07/awesome-journalism.html
Thursday, July 15, 2010. I read those "commuter" papers on my way to work. They're convenient and free. But, man, do they suck. 24 is by far the greatest offender, but Metro is filled with errors, omissions and nonsense every single day. I fear for the minds of those who take this stuff at face value. This may or may not be related, since I saw the same story reported in The Star. But I thought I'd share this interesting tidbit of info that I came across and made me shake my head. Issue #2: Metro, who pu...

Phil Loses His Mind: Au revoir, Le Marche
http://philipsullivan.blogspot.com/2010/01/au-revoir-le-marche.html
Tuesday, January 26, 2010. Au revoir, Le Marche. On my lunchtime stroll I noticed that Le Marche. At the corner of Yonge and Wellington, had closed. It caught me - and a number of would-be lunchtime patrons - by surprise. There was a sign in the lobby thanking customers for their patronage. Guess it's gone for good. Now I'm not exactly shedding a tear for the place. I hated eating there. It was an overpriced buffet that actually charged an automatic 15% gratuity. (WTF? What will replace the Marche? Ranti...

Phil Loses His Mind: CRAZY GUN-TOTING COP!!! ...Not so crazy?
http://philipsullivan.blogspot.com/2010/08/crazy-gun-toting-cop-not-so-crazy.html
Tuesday, August 03, 2010. So I'm perusing the site, which is usually pretty interesting, and come across this post. That seems to relate the story of a crazy, gun-waving cop caught on video pointing his firearm at a motorcyclist who was speeding. The story goes on to tell of the crazy lengths the DA is going to to back the officer. The DA part of the story is one thing, and yes it sounds a bit out of touch with reality ("wiretapping"? ONE HUNDRED AND TWENTY SEVEN MILES PER HOUR. The guy starts checking h...

Phil Loses His Mind: Punishment should fit the crime, not the damage - Liambas vs Fanelli
http://philipsullivan.blogspot.com/2009/11/punishment-should-fit-crime-not-damage.html
Wednesday, November 04, 2009. Punishment should fit the crime, not the damage - Liambas vs Fanelli. Earlier this week, an OHL hockey player was injured after a crushing bodycheck from an opponent. I hadn't seen the hit. Until just now, but I'd heard about it from others. I don't know the players involved, but from what I can tell through a brief search, the hitter - Michael Liambas - is a bit of a douchebag on the ice as this ridiculously dirty hit. On John Tavares demonstrates. As any experienced hockey...

Phil Loses His Mind: Michael Bryant - Darcy Sheppard Incident Follow-up
http://philipsullivan.blogspot.com/2010/05/michael-bryant-darcy-sheppard-incident.html
Thursday, May 27, 2010. Michael Bryant - Darcy Sheppard Incident Follow-up. I was out of town on Tuesday, so I missed this bit of news. Seems the charges against former Attorney General Michael Bryant were dropped when the prosecution decided it had no reasonable chance of conviction. See, back in September of aught-nine, I posted this. But here are some highlights:. He cut in front of Bryant's car at a light, passing on the driver's side. Bryant did not, as the video suggested to many, deliberately lurc...

Phil Loses His Mind: Boingboing's Science
http://philipsullivan.blogspot.com/2012/09/boingboings-science.html
Wednesday, September 26, 2012. Anyone who knows me or knows this blog is aware that I frequent the Boingboing website. I love it and hate it at the same time. It offers some very cool info/links (I just shared the article on Google Maps' new ocean feature. Not half an hour ago on Facebook) but it also has an obvious bias towards technology and general hipster and/or liberal subjects. Today I came across this article. Ok, cool. I'll buy that. Makes sense. The debunker seems to know his stuff a...About cyc...

Phil Loses His Mind: My Soft Moc Experience
http://philipsullivan.blogspot.com/2013/12/my-soft-moc-experience.html
Friday, December 13, 2013. My Soft Moc Experience. After a not-so-satisfactory experience with the store at Yonge and Eglinton, I'm really hoping that the head office comes through and restores my faith in customer service. Story to follow. For now, just some pics. This is such a good story. I cant wait to see what you have in store for this years post! I actually looked at this yesterday and almost wrote an update. But then I ate a cookie. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Phil Loses His Mind.
