What is Satan's last name? Gary Bettman...if there was ever someone who should be fired it is Buttman...he put the NHL through two lockouts, has ruined the game with crappy rules, let Quebec City and Winnipeg leave, he cannot get it through his head that hockey in places like Phoenix is not working, he wants hockey to work in the Southern States and it just doesn't...Atlanta has lost a team for the second time...wake up get rid of this guy...
Why can't donuts be square? Because someone wanted to make them round when they were invented? Yes there are square donuts...isn't a Dutchie round? Apple Fritter?

The largest audience for an event held at the Forum was reportedly close to 8,600 people, at the first live World Wrestling Federation show in Halifax, on July 18, 1987, which featured a main event match between then-WWF champion Hulk Hogan and Randy "Macho Man" Savage.... Old Man Robb was there.
What concert at the Halifax Metro Centre sold out in nine minutes? In December 2007, an Ozzy Osbourne concert sold out in nine minutes, setting a box office ticket record for the Metro Centre....demand was so high that they had to add a second concert...oh ya that sold out
Only three Acadia Axeman have ever skated in the NHL, which one lasted the longest?

What do many people in Japan eat at Christmas time? People in Japan head in the zillions to KFC to pick up their Christmas Chicken Dinner...many Japanese make their reservations for their Christmas Dinner months ahead of time. There are line-ups down the street to pick up the Christmas order. It's popularity can be traced back to forty years ago when foreigners would eat at KFC because they could not find a whole turkey or chicken anywhere, KFC Japan noticed and started offering Christmas Dinner's in 1974. As a result of KFC's advertising, many Japanese believe that North Americans celebrate Christmas with a chicken dinner instead of the traditional ham or turkey.
Who was Canada's longest reigning prime minister? William Lyon Mackenzie King ruled from 1921 to 1948 with some gaps in the middle due to long naps, although he was almost entirely awake during World War II. He stayed in office longer than any other Canadian leader due to the fact that he was so noncommittal on absolutely everything that people couldn't figure out why not to vote for him. King also had an obsession with is dead Mother, going so far as to including a shrine to her in his Ottawa estate, and frequently attempted to contact her from the "other side". Most historians describe this as queasy creepy, but given the level of batfuck-insanity evident in generally everything King did, they pass it off as "not really anything people didn't already assume was going on". The Canadian people of the time considered it a loveable quirk from a man who was seen as "entertainingly bizarre".

Who won the Jewett Trophy this year? The Axemen silly! Although i must agree with something that i read recently that* I think it is ridiculous that AUS is the ONLY conference where the host team does not actually host the game every year. Essentially this game was played on neutral ground and had little crowd support. 3500 at Raymond Field in Wolfville is a lot different than 3500 at the new 16,000 seat stadium located at the University of Moncton...
What is Old Man Robb's favourite calendar? My 2012-13 Maxim Calendar!
Should Halifax get a Hard Rock Cafe? I think it needs to right outside the Halifax Metro Centre...imagine going to or coming from a concert and being able to relax, drink or eat amongst all of that rock memorabilia? I mean even South Korea had a Hard Rock Cafe and they don't really have much of a case of the rock n rolls...
What is Old Man Robb doing this May? My TESOL Practicum at Acadia U...can't wait!
