Wikipedia says 1946-64, so he skates in.

Actually, is 52 even proper Boomer?  Or is it really early Gen X?

  Late-bloomer boomer.

Seriously, where's your new cut of Barry Lyndon?

Barry Lyndon needs no further editing.

Book of negroes.

CBC's attemp at Root-like saga.  So far, we have evil blacks carrying poor blacks to the sea to be sold to American merchants, then to rapist american farmers, than to slightly Jews, and I expect the slave will eventually find its way in a loving Canadian community, away from the Evil Americans rebelling against the Crown (it starts in 1761-63 IIRC).

Finished the Spartacus, blu-ray.

Highly recommended.  Better sound & image quality.  A few edits here&there, a few special effects enhancements here&there, and voilà, a superior product.   Too much male nudity for my tastes, but I think they added a couple of the girls too, some I did not remember seeing nude.

Anyway, if it was only for the eye candy it'd be worth it, but it's superb series, as most of you know.

John Brown raided two farms in Missouri and got the liberated slaves to Canada through the Underground Railroad in 1858, and they were probably goddamned glad he did, despite the hockey and weirdo football.

Yeah. if you can't carry a ball 10 yards in three attempts, you really should try another sport.

Heh, if it follows the book, you may be in for a surprise.

Well, typically if you haven't gotten 10 yards in three attempts, you punt. Do Canadians punt on third down? Cause then you really need to get the yardage in two tries.

Canada sucks

The Lego Movie was robbed at the Oscars nominations.

It got a nomination for its crappy song though.

What makes no sense to me is how they nominated Foxcatcher for Actor, Supporting Actor, Director, Script, but *not* best film.

They need some catchy stuff to lighten up that long and dull ceremony.
