Isaac Hanson becomes a proud pop!!


I missed some Hanson news again, it seems that on April 3rd, 2007 Isaac's wife Nicole give birth to their first child a son named Clarke Everett Hanson. The Hanson clan just keeps expending between Ike and Taylor there are 4 kids now, 3 boys and a girl.

Wonder if they will some day start their own band like their parents?. So now that the oldest Hanson brother has a child it'll be Zac's turn next, that is unless Taylor beats him to it lol.

Check out the official Hanson site for more details on the birth.

Happy Easter!!

Hingis pulls out of Family Circle Cup

Looks like I spoke too soon when I said this tournament would have a great line up because now it will be the opposite.

The best players have pulled out due to injuries. That includes Maria Sharapova, Justine Henin, Svetlana Kuznetsova and Martina Hingis.

Who suffered a hip injury this past week while training too hard to keep her compatitive edge. It's really too bad, I was really looking forward to seeing her play in this one.

Especially since she was going to be the number one seed due to so many players pulling out. I hope the hip injury is nothing serious and I wish her a speedy recovery.

Hopefully she'll be able to play the tournament in Warsaw and get her revenge on Agnieszka Radzanska.

Get well Martina:)

At long last! (it's the long weekend)

Finally it is the weekend!. There was a moment when I thought this week would never end even though it was a short one lol. It's probably because very few people came in or called to buy and inquire about a trip.

So through no fault of your own you become a clock-watcher and every second feels like an eternity.

But now I have 4 days off and I am beyond ecstatic, that's 4 days where I can veg on the couch and just do absolutely nothing. Plus I get to sleep in another major bonus! :D.

I wasn't going to mention anything about the crappy weather we're currently experiencing, but I'm really not surprised so what the hell. I will say this it was completely frigid today.

Definitely not pleasant for venturing out anywhere. And it is going to continue to snow all weekend long.

I wish I could say that this is the longest record breaking winter but that would be a lie lol. We've had even longer lasting winters in the past, oh the joys of living in Canada lol.

A blast from the past



Another Martina ad this one is not cringe-worthy, thank goodness lol. I wish I knew what year this was from, judging by her hair I would say circa 2000.

My favourite part of the ad is the woman at the end "I would like to call him Martina but he's a boy" lol. Well she could always take off the "a". I have to say Adidas does good ads.

And another one just for fun. What can I say I like things that are cheesy.

Just checking in

Haven't been writing much in the last few days so thought I would check in. Not much has been going on with me life wise just working. Some days are good, some days are bad and some just plain awful lol. I think I look forward to weekends more then ever these days.

I'm certainly looking forward to this coming weekend, it being a long weekend of course. Finally 4 days to relax, catch up with friends and indulge my geek self by spending quality time on the computer lol.

I'm sure that sounds boring to anyone else to me it's time well spent. Before we get to that (the weekend) I have to make it through another 4 days of phone calls and traveller inquiries (yupee). Anyway I'm gonna stop being a whiner now and move on to something else.

The Family Circle Cup starts next week April 7 I'm looking forward to that, another tennis tournament with a great line-up of players.

Lets hope Martina has a nice fresh successful start, she certainly needs it after all the downers in the last 4 tournaments. I'm sure the 2 week break she had helped her get some rest, perspective and a lot of training no doubt. So I'm sure she'll be ready to kick some butt. I wish her lots of luck.

Lets see what else?, oh yes today is April fools thankfully it was nice and uneventful for me with no one trying to pull some lame joke on me. I think I'm too old for those lol.

But hey kudos to anyone who did get into the spirit, hope your significant other or loved one isn't too pissed or worse tries to get revenge. Lets just say I've been there and it's not as funny when the tables are turned.

That will be all, wishing all my readers an enjoyable (if not bearable week) ;).
