Sick of getting her flowers?
Mother’s Day is this coming weekend and I have no idea what to get my mother. Gift Card? Too impersonal. Card? Not enough. Cash? Who gives their Mom cash? So here’s an idea… get her pizza… from Pizza 73.
Give mom a treat with a delicious Mother’s Day Delight Pizza on her special day. Any 2 toppings… IN THE SHAPE OF A HEART!!! Awwww.
This is good, cause maybe she’ll share. Good thinking Pizza 73.

Every fight with your significant other in bed? Well apparently your not alone. A new survey finds the average couple fight in the bedroom 167 times a year. Now thats the average… so some couples are doing it a lot more. GET A DIVORCE!!! Thats a lot of fighting.
Here’s a list of whats couples are fighting about the most:

1. Hogging the cover
2. Snoring
3. Being too hot
4. Not being ‘in the mood’
5. Allowing the children to sleep in the bed
6. Venturing on to the wrong side of the bed
7. Being too cold
8. Being touched by your partners cold feet
9. The time at which you go to bed
10. Leaving a light on to read

Sleep is calming time… stop fighting

What do you think of people… who give their pets… human names? Me you ask? I hate it… one of my Pet Peeves. And this from a guy who’s fiancee named her dog Zoe.
One of the beauty’s of having pets… is naming it WHATEVER you want. Cupboard? Sure Buckethead? Yep. Can’t do that with kids. Our dog plays with a dog across the street named Owen. Why? Then my son’s friend comes over and realize THE DOG across the street has the same name is him.
Here’s a list out today of the 10 Coolest Pet Names:

Fatty Mcbutterpants
Sir Goose Slobberalot
Beetle Juice Monster Pants
Chairman Meow
Honey’s Lil Midnight Moonshine
Lord Godrick Von Mousenberg
Emperor Chewy Teddybear
Cookie Fudge Rainbow
Baron Von Doodle
Alyssa Butter Scooch

Yes…. that what I’m talking about. Now I’m going home to play with Zoe… my DOG.

Ever have trouble getting out of bed? Ever hit the Snooze button one too many times? Well a guy in New Jersey hopes so.
A 25-year-old man has created a clock that can only be stopped by getting out of bed. There is no snooze button to turn off and go back to sleep.
If you unplug it, a battery takes over and there’s no resetting the alarm. Hammer? Its hammer-proof.
The only way to make it stop is to go into another room and punch the day’s date into a telephone-style keypad.
The inventor says he started working on the gadget because it was hard for him to get up and get to work on time after college.
Discipline. Thats all you need. When your alarm goes off… get up!!
Want one? The man has formed a company and already has more than 400 orders for the clocks, which sell for 350-dollars. Or, show some discipline. Up to you

A Facebook survey out today… asked members what their favorite fast-food restaurants. Some of the usuals made the list (McDonalds #2, Subway #3, Burger King #10) but there were also some surprises. Including Domino’s Pizza, Dunkin’ Donuts, Pizza Hut, and the #1 Fast-Food joint… Starbucks. Starbucks? Is Starbucks fast-food? Depends I guess on how we’re defining the word. You get food fast there… so maybe.
So the next time your kids ask to go for fast-food…. take ‘em to Starbucks, see how they react to that.

I don’t like blogging. So I’m not gonna do it.
“So you’re gonna quit your job Rosie?”
No I’m just not gonna blog.
“Won’t you get fired?”
I don’t care. I just don’t wanna blog anymore.

Office Space… sorta

Sunday night I had hockey… I literally got no sleep that night. Next night… hockey. Got 3 hours that night. Next night, woke up at 1 a.m. and never went back to sleep. Is this all normal? NO!! 6 hours sleep over 3 nights, thats not good for you is it?
I had a friend tell me he got “no sleep” the other night cause he woke up at 5, and never went back to sleep. So the 7 hours of sleep before that didn’t count?
So until I get some sleep… I’m not blogging anymore
Out

The first rule of parenting… ALWAYS protect your children. Don’t EVER do anything to put a target on their back.
So when the Alberta Government released their baby names of 2011, there are some… questionable ones.
Why would ANYONE name their child Moo? Or Tank? Or Smiley? Did you give birth to one of the 7 Dwarfs?
Some of the other names that caught my eye:
Princess, Queen, King, Amen, Marvelous, Pistol, Remington, Stryker, Tank, Trooper, J-Cub, Moo, Stylez, Solo, Stiff, and Tuba.
Numbers show that 50,592 babies were born in Alberta in 2011, and I get everyone can’t be Ethan and Emma… but Tuba? Really?

Just when you thought there already was a TV channel for everyone, someone thought there needed to be one for your dog.
A new cable channel debuting in the U-S is aimed directly at Man’s Best Friend and not a dog’s owner. So its not like “The Dog Whisperer” or “Pick a Puppy”. (2 shows my daughter loves by the way. Oh no… this channel is actually for dogs.
Dog T-V offers three types of canine programming — soothing music and video for relaxing, stimulating activity — and a third phase designed to get your pooch accustomed to things like riding in a car.
My dog hates TV. I try and get her to watch it when a dog is on… you know… just to torment her. Nope. She couldn’t care less. She’s NOT going to watch this. unbelievable.

Does anyone believe in groundhog day? That when the rodent comes out of his hole… he/she can actually predict when winter is gonna end? I know its just a fun bit… but there are people that take it seriously.
This morning, no shadows for Willie and Sam.
Canada’s furry forecasters are calling for an early spring as
Ontario’s Wiarton Willie and Nova Scotia’s Shubenacadie Sam failed to see their shadows.
However Pennsylvania’s Punxsutawney Phil is calling for six more weeks of winter.
Environment Canada warned this fall to expect colder-than-normal temperatures in the north and west.
But the past few months have brought balmy weather peppered with a few cold snaps in most of the country.
So if you’ve been waiting for the Groundhogs predictions… here ya go. Oh yeah…. and get a life!!!

A bit of a surprise, as figure skater Patrick Chan has been named Canada’s Male Athlete of the Year. He becomes just the third figure skater to ever win the Lionel Conacher Award, joining Elvis Stojko and Kurt Browning.
At first I thought “Patrick Chan?” But he did have a good 2011, with an undefeated season, including winning his first world title. The 20-year-old was the overwhelming winner in the agency’s balloting of sports editors and broadcasters from across the country.
Second in the balloting was tennis player Milos Raonic, followed by U-F-C star Georges St-Pierre, Cincinnati Reds first baseman Joey Votto and skier Erik Guay.
