I caught an early morning flight last week. I was tired when I got on the plan but pushed through. I was watching out the window as the sun came up. There were perfect connected pillow clouds 1000 ft below.

So I was on a plane to Boston today and I picked up a copy of MACLEANS magazine, a commemorative classic on the life of Ted Kennedy. I read a few great articles, but the one that I really wanted to share with you was how certain famous (Prime Minister, Sidney Crosby, Linda Evangelista) [...]

“The Nail that Sticks Up will be hammered down.”
-Japanese Proverb
Exhilarating, frightening, jaw dropping are words I would use to describe the movie I saw this afternoon.

Yesterday morning I got up early to watch the Wimbledon final between Roger Federer and Andy Roddick. I was hoping Roddick would be able to stick in there for a while and make a match of it. He has never beat Federer in a Grand Slam event. What he did do is [...]
