Foo Fighters – Back and Forth and Beyond
January 31st, 2012 by Joshua MurraySo for Christmas I got the DVD of the Foo Fighters Back and Forth documentary. And this afternoon I sat down and watched it for the first time. It was awesome. I don’t watch a lot of docs, but this one was a pretty sure thing for me as I love the band and the […]
I’m Craving and It’s Complicated #BreakItOff
January 29th, 2012 by Joshua MurrayThis whole quitting smoking thing is complicated. There are so many stop smoking aids these days that I don’t really know what to do. I’ve heard a ton of great things about Allen Carr’s book but I haven’t had my hands on it yet. I picked up a pack of Thrive nicotine gum yesterday at […]
2012 And A Better Me
January 28th, 2012 by Joshua MurrayI’ve been thinking a bunch over the last few days. You see, I worked hard at making 2011 a year of Silver Linings and Awesome. And now we have a new year and it’s time to start working at a new goal. I’m thinking… be a better me. It’s vague (which I like) and it’s […]

I really, really love the stories and emotion and passion that gets conveyed through the lyrics and melodies. I also really dig a great country duet.

Countdown To 30 – Favourite Books!
January 23rd, 2012 by Joshua MurrayIt seems kind of silly that I’m using the countdown to my 30th birthday as a reason to give you a bunch of lists. But when I started this blog the spirit of it was to review things. So here’s another list/review from me to you.Some of my fav books – take a look. William […]
Toronto The Beautiful – Streetcar Art!
January 22nd, 2012 by Joshua MurrayI don’t know why – but I love the streetcars in Toronto. We all know that the TTC is far from a perfect service. Prices are climbing, equipment is old, service times can be inconsistent and inconvenient. However, I love the beauty of the streetcar. Maybe I’m the only one. Maybe I romanticize something that […]

NFL Conference Championships – The Picks Are In!
January 20th, 2012 by Joshua MurrayOkay kids, here’s the deal – I’ve been awful with my NFL playoff picks. Absolutely terrible. 3-5… that’s not good. So, in an effort to turn things around I’ve asked my expert assistant to help me with the picks. Without knowing anything about the teams, records, history or where the games are played I asked […]
I Love Parkdale!
January 18th, 2012 by Joshua MurrayIn my 2012 Un-Resolutions I mentioned that I wanted to show more love for Parkdale. I meant it. When I moved to Toronto from Ottawa in 2008 I stayed with my boy Mike near Yonge and Eglinton for a month – but then I grabbed my first apartment in the city and moved to Parkdale […]

Moneyball – Welcoming the Geeks to the Game
January 15th, 2012 by Joshua MurrayWe watched Moneyball last night at home. It was my first watch since a pre-release screening in the theatre… and it totally held up on the 2nd watch.For non-baseball fans I’m sure that it’s a great watch and display of Brad Pitt in a dramatic role with some great little comedic bits and fantastic fatherly […]
Somebody That I Used To Know…
January 14th, 2012 by Joshua MurrayI’ve been thinking a lot lately about lost relationships. Not lost because anything bad happened. Just lost because of life and time and distance. I grew up with some pretty amazing people. I had some great friends that were with me when things were bad at home and with girls and in school. I had […]
