Send Sal Fasano to the MLB All-Star Game Sal Fasano is a 35 year-old catcher on the Toronto Blue Jays.
He has a lifetime batting average of .222.
He also happens to have the world's coolest Fu Manchu mustache.

The goal is to get Sal onto the 2007 AL All-Star team. Sal's not actually listed on the All-Star ballot (ridiculous!), but they allow write-in candidates. Visit the site for a link to the All-Star ballot and to find out how you can help (also stop by the blog for some fun) :{

Dogs are cute. Dogs in costumes are cuter. CostumeDogs.com has pictures of dogs. The dogs are wearing costumes. The pictures make you smile. A favorite (of mine, at least) is what I believe to be the web's largest collection of Dogs in Star Wars Costumes. There's also shark, super hero and sushi dogs for your Halloween pleasure.

Navigational links that go back/forward one day on the "1, 2, 3, 4, 5 years ago." pages would be fun!

And maybe add a 6 years ago link to the sidebar?

Please help me find a flight from Vancouver to Tokyo that's cheaper than Toronto to Tokyo... I will be in Vancouver in early January for work and was all excited becuase I could save money by flying to Japan from Vancouver. It turns out that it's $300 cheaper for me to fly back to Toronto and then turn around and board a flight for Tokyo.
