What did you do in Toronto to get a street named after you? Thought you might get a kick out of that.

By the way I saw a shop named Shiv but I didn't have time to get the camera out. Sorry.

Were there self-storage units all along it?

I know that street quite well, the University of Toronto Football stadium is on that street. I stayed in the Quality Hotel on Bloor several times for the North American Model United Nations conference. I also believe Lee's Palace is on that street.

There's a street in the Phil-Colin neighborhood of Austin called GARWOOD. I am now kicking myself for not taking a pic of the street sign.

You know, Bob...after coining Redlands for the fine Bloor estate, I was never super-enamored with "Stargroves" as the name for my fine palace...I think I shall re-christen it GARWOOD.

The next time you and FEMGAR are in Dallas, let's make a side trip down to TEH A-TX and steal you that street sign. It is your birthright.

Not only that, but they've turned their guest bedroom into a recording su-su-studio.

LOL

And when I say LOL, what I really mean is "try to refrain from laughing out loud so that my coworkers won't hear me because they would ask what I am laughing at and I would have to say 'Phil Collins masturbation joke.'"

That's a more forgiving review than I'd give it.

Positives: great cab service downtown
Negatives: everything else

Yeah Torontopia is horrible, and politically they're a bunch of whiners but I've had fun when I've been there. If you can't find a good time in a city like that, you just don't want to.

I never said I didn't have a good time. The city on the whole just kinda...I don't know...blows.

And the beer is AWFUL too. There, I said it.
