Happy news year's eve!
It is officially the last day of 2007. I've had an interesting year. A lot of fun and new challenges. I am feeling pretty optimistic about the future in 2008 and I hope you are too.

Predictions '08
I got Mocha to give me some of his predictions for the upcoming year on-air this morning.
Here's what he had to say for the different categories.
Music - Britney will turn things around, come out with another new great album and make a load of cash. Kanye continues to go nuttier.
TV - Writers' strike ends by the end of January but shows are effected by it long term - perhaps even running new episodes over the summer.
Entertainment - Pam Anderson and Rick Soloman are divorced within six months
Sports - There will be increased steroid allegations this time in Football. The Rangers will win the Memorial Cup. The Leafs win the Stanley Cup (I think he was joking)
Science and Technology - Flying cars are invented. No major cures for anything discovered.
Adele's fear of the Exorcist - It will worsen as Mocha continues to pull pranks on her.
Jessica Alba - nothing (he refused to talk about her)
Mocha's love life - He and Megan Fox hook up in '08!
You read it here first folks. Let me know what predictions you have for the new year. I'll post them on here and we'll see if you were right in a year.

DEXTER
My cousin Jason has got me hooked on the Showcase television show Dexter. Ok, so if you're not familiar with the show - it's about a guy (named Dexter Morgan) who is a blood-splatter expert with Miami Police forensics. But (and it's a big BUT) - he's also a serial killer. BUT BUT! He's a serial killer who only hunts down other serial killers. Mamma mia! I know, it sounds pretty violent and if it were real it'd be bad news but it's a good show and funny. I just finished watching season one and I loved it!
If you get a chance to see it, watch a couple episodes - you may enjoy it. Let me know what you think. I'm sure there are many other huge Dexter fans out there.

IN THE NEWS...
Here's are links to some of the day's top stories.
The GST drops to 5 per cent at midnight!
The Canadian Press names the fluctuating loonie the story of the year.
Another Canadian soldier was killed by a roadside bomb in Afghanistan.
A 21-year old American woman is charged in a deadly car crash on the 401 yesterday.
Pakistan's elections may be delayed a few weeks in the wake of Benazir Bhutto's assassination and the subsequent outrage.

RAPS
My Raptors meet an old friend-turned-foe in New Orleans tonight. Morris Peterson played seven years in Toronto. He was a fan favorite and good team player. But he doesn't fit with what the team is doing now so he wasn't brought back this year. In the off-season he signed with the Hornets and has enjoyed a pretty good season there so far. I hope the Raps can finish '07 on a high note, I still believe they will contend for the Eastern Conference crown.
-----------------------
IF YOU ARE GOING OUT TONIGHT PLEASE DON'T DRINK AND DRIVE - IT'S JUST NOT WORTH THE RISK.
HAVE A GREAT NEW YEAR!
