  1. Well, I'm sure one will be able to guess that my first language is... (drumroll)... french. However, I don't have any issue writing in english; actually I will actually think about what to say in english without even thinking about french. Maybe it's due to the fact that english is really highly present in Montreal, or that my parent got me used to watching movies and tv shows in english starting at a young age. In all cases, I sure don't complain about it.
  2. I know I'm a little late in my answer but still, I will chime in. First I will say that, both at 26, I will still consider Djokovic and Murray as in their young prime. At 27, Nadal, even if his injuries will most likely still follow him until he retires, can be quite effective. I do however understand your point. Raonic has now change his coach and hopefully will achieve his potential. Getting into a final of a Master 1000 tournament last week in mtl is a good start, even if he didn't make it as easy as it could have been. Granted he got his ass whooped in final against Nadal but still it's a good start. He will need to learn how to finish his games to go to the next step. In Canada, I would say that Vasek Pospisil could become better than Raonic in not that long. He has a serve that is almost as powerful, but he's more intelligent and is quicker on his feet. I do agree with you, Benoit Paire and Janowicz are to be looked at.. I will finally say that we shouldn't ignore Del Potro, who's still young enough.
  3. You know, I never really thought he was that cute, compared to other tennis players. However, after having been a couple of feet away from him on court, I will have to agree that he is actually good looking. In term of play, I still have some doubt that he has what it takes to be number one over a long period of time.
  4. For me, I don't really do sports, yes I will go swimming and go for bike ride to relax, but other than that, I don't do sport. However, I will watch hockey, tennis and football.
  5. Summer Paradise - Simple Plan
  6. I have never run an anti-virus software on any of my mac and never had any issues. As for security program, the built it security of the OS is more than enough... Surprised on how much profit is made?! well it's the same thing for virtually any electronic devices, you will have huge markup... As Thorn Wilde said, the cost of R&D is quite imposing.
  7. I still say Chicago,,, with the looks of it, it will most likely go in 7 games
  8. Happy B-Day Myr! hope you take the day to enjoy yourself a little!
  9. Since the playoffs are almost here, I will take the time to answer this one... Personally, I don't think that pittsburg will win the cup.. A team with so many big names usually do not get to win it all... As for who will win it, well if it can't be the habs, I'll go with Chicago or Detroit. Mind you those are my personal favourite, I'm not taking any bets...
  10. Epilogue - What’s Next “Nathan?” Stephen answered his cell before looking at his caller ID. Unfortunately for him, the voice that came from the other end wasn’t the one he had expected. “Sorry, it’s just me!” Meghan jokingly said. “Expecting a call?” “Well, not really expecting, maybe more hoping for it.” It had already been a little more than two hours since they had part ways, which meant that the swim class he was giving should already have ended for a while now. Since he had
  11. ummm, a Libra scales but in blue (need to represent all of the libras around ) otherwise, I second AJ's suggestion, from what I remember, you don't have to to self-conscious otherwise, I like the calvin one that you have now
  12. yup, poor Stephen! for the gay population almost all positive... in general, it's polarized.
  13. Chapter 5 - Night Of Snuggling And More "There you are, I was looking for you," Stephen said. "If you want, I can set up the couch for you to sleep on." It was important for him to at least offer the option of sleeping arrangement, other than in the same bed. “Ya, you really think I’d rather sleep on the couch when I have the choice of the bed. Besides, it’s without a doubt big enough for the two of us,” Nathan said. Stephen was obviously happy of his new friend’s decision. As much a
  14. We will agree on that, no offence to my winnipeg friends, they shouldn't be 3rd.
  15. The better team points wise? When I looked this morning, I still see mtl 2nd in the eastern in front of the Big Bad Bruins I will admit on this one that it was a great 2 goals night for Bouillon. Just a shame that one of them was in his own net.... But I guess he had a good teacher in his GM... Bergevin. In all cases, I can't wait for next season and have Detroit in the east. Mtl vs Detroit games are always good.
  16. Never underestimate a team with a Quebecois in it just saying
  17. It was close enough to a strip poker game... I did get to imply a few things on the back story of some of them. thx!
  18. thanks vinnyvin! highly appreciated!
  19. Chapter 4 - At Stephen’s Place The five minute ride from the megaplex to Stephen’s place was uneventful. Nathan, who was riding shotgun, was simply playing and texting on his cell, while the two potential lovebirds in the back were simply talking about the movies they wanted to go see next. Arriving at his place, Stephen commented, “Well it was actually a good movie, don’t you think,” as he was hanging the coats in the closet. “It was good, but I still say that Brosnan will remain th
  20. In Quebec we do have a couple of very good sports journalists. In terms of specific commentator, it seems it's more ex-atletes commenting on their old sport.
  21. I'll take that as a nice compliment Thx!
  22. Thx Ieshwar! it's appreciated! And for sure, they might not be long time friend, but there's a good connection between Matt and Stephen.
  23. In all cases, you always have that great feeling when your favourite wins over one of their rivalries opponent *cough* 4-3 Habs against bruins *cough*
  24. Congratulation to all the winners! some really good reading in all those stories!
  25. Hello Bill! thanks for your comments. I was already aware that improvements were still possible. From the time it was first posted, I already made some typo corrections and a full new edit of the first chapter was already in the works. It is now posted
