A Lot About Nothing

Tonight marks day two of a 3-day comedy extravaganza in Toronto. The well-known, Montreal-based Just For Laughs Festival is making it’s mark for the first time ever in this city, while celebrating it’s 25th anniversary.

So prepare yourself for some comedic talent, artists, theatre and variety troupes from around the world, descending in and around Toronto’s Yonge-Dundas Square. One of the highlights of the event for me is Canadian comedian Russell Peters performing a free show at the Square tonight at 7pm (let’s hope the rain holds off).

The festival ends this Saturday, so make sure you reach at least one performance! Check out the official website for a schedule of events.

One of my former tech-savvy co-workers dropped by the office today, and what did he have with him? An iPhone! Okay, so I only handled it for a couple of minutes, but it swayed me to seriously think purchasing one when they finally come to Canada… especially for business needs. It’s a little heavier than I thought it would be, but the interface is breathtaking (I just love that slide lock function!).

Perhaps I’ll wait a few months after the mob calms down when it’s released north of the border, though.
