No, I won't be breaking bread with Sidney Poitier tonight, but Humble Howard, his wife Randee and his brood are trekking east to enjoy Taryn's world famous lasagna.
I've been to the Glassman's palatial Oakville estate several times, once with the whole family, and I once got to fly his plane, but they've never crashed at my crib. That's right, I called it my crib, and I almost called it my pad before I realized this was 2008 and my pad is now my crib... or so the kids tell me.
This actually works out perfectly because the Leafs game is a 3pm start and the Glassmans will be rolling in just as the game winds down. Coincidentally, tonight is also the night CBC RadioOne is airing Humble Howard's appearance on The Debaters. That starts at 6:30pm.
As my Hebrew friend wrote on his blog:
Saturday night I'm going over to the Boon Man's home for dinner. This is our first foray into the heart of the Mad Genius and it should be great. Mike has become a good pal of mine and he's got a sweet family as well. I just hope the Leafs don't have an off night and put MB into a funk. Wait a second that's all the Leafs have. He should be used to it by now.
Go Leafs Go!
