Barbie, I want you back! Ken

Don't you just love romance. Ken wants Barbie back, I guess that whole alternative lifestyle rumour was just a rumour. Should Barbie even take that Ken back? You can vote on it at Ken and Barbie's Love-O-Meter website.

Can they possibly get back together in time for Valentines Day on February 14? Get your Ken or Barbie something that represents your love or you could be fighting hard to win them back, just like poor Ken here.

Red Bull Graveyard

The Red Bull wanders throughout the City, promoting Red Bull type things, and when it reaches the end of it's life it goes to the Red Bull graveyard - where it lays down and waits for the can to empty. Do not be sad for the hyper Red Bull Energy Drink, it had long and fast paced life, full of extremely late nights and too many parties. May they burp in peace.

TRON Legacy 3D - graffiti

On the side of a comic book store on Queen Street West I find the wall now covered with an advertisement for TRON Legacy 3D by Artchild from TorontoGraffiti.com.

I found a YouTube Video from the Key of Awesome guys, which was awesome.

Then I also found some more graffiti and posters in a few Queen Street West alleyways.

Name him Milkman

"We can't exactly name the kid "Milkman"". I found another sign up on the streets of Toronto, similar to the Dick's Parents sign, and I finally read the small print. FabFindbaby was set up to name a baby from Facebook submissions. The winning name is Melania followed by Aria and finally in third place; Willow. Sounds like Disney  was sending in a few names.

The people behind FabFindbaby run FabFind - it some kind of deal a day thing, but on the website you have to sign up to find more information, so I bailed.
And I found a few other signs.

Cavus Manus

It's hard to live in a cave when it is a glass room full of light, there are no bears and they get food delivered by beautiful women at the Real Sports Store. Still there was a little beer fridge, a big screen television and a comfy couch so it definitely has the basics of a man cave. Watch Nick with the Cave Cam here.
The best part of the sign was "Please do not tap on the window".

The Big Kiss

Virgin Mobile brought the Big Kiss to Toronto today as couples were invited to kiss under a giant mistletoe hanging in Yonge-Dundas Square. Virgin is going to donate money for each kiss to WWF-Canada. "Join us on December 2nd at 6:00 PM by participating in a massive, simultaneous kiss under Dundas Square's new adornment. The countdown will be led by Degrassi's Charlotte Arnold (Holly) and Raymond Ablack (Sav)!
Kiss a friend, a lover, a teddy bear, your cell phone, whatever ;) And remember the ancient Chinese proverb: "Kissing is like drinking salt water - having some only increases your thirst for more."
Virgin Mobile will give out Blackberry smartphones to 5 lucky kissing couples under the giant mistletoe. While big nutcrackers and reindeer helped fill the square with holiday cheer.
I saw that Cynthia Mulligan from CityTV was on hand reporting in the square and she looks thin but still beautiful. I had taken her photo almost one year ago and noted her fight against breast cancer which still continues.

See more photos after the jump.


Some wise men, a snowman and a penguin greet the crowd and offer free hot chocolate.
Reindeer down, reindeer down!
The reindeer before the hunt.

It's Friday

"Trick yourself into thinking it's Friday." No, it's really not working. But I felt happier when they gave me the cute little cupcakes.
Virgin America was outside several locations around Toronto, including Yonge and Dundas just beside the Eaton Centre, with yummy red velvet cupcakes. Casie Stewart says "Keep your eyes peeled for the team cause they’ve got 2,500 cupcakes AND 20% discount coupons. Plus, to upgrade your Monday a little more, listen to Z103.5 and call-in-to-win 100% off tickets! Amazing, I know. Maybe, just maybe we can trick you into thinking it’s Friday!"
