Big Bunny's Girl of the Year: The Runner-Ups
These 4 were contenders to be the Girl of the Year, but they didn't make it to the top of the list.
They're listed in random order.
Priya Rai
Priya's got a lot going for her, but not enough to be girl of the year.
Lucy Liu
Oh Lucy you're so juicy, but not juicy enough to be the girl of the year.
Leyrn Franco
You know the competition for the girl of the year honor is really tough if she can't win.
Sarah Shahi
Sarah's got a lot going for her, but not enough to be the girl of the year.

The Year in Review: Best Spots to Eat At
This is the first of the year-in-review theme.
These are what I'd consider to be my top 5.
5. The Foxley Bistro. I like this place a lot. The food is good. The atmosphere is good. What's not so good, is the wait to get a table if you come between 7:00 and 9:00. The menu is reasonably priced and tapas style. Dinner for two here can easily be $80 with a few beers.
Rating: 2 Bunnies
4. Tati If you asked be at the beginning of the year whether Tati would've made my top 5, I'd probably say no. But the place has grown on me as well as showing some improvements on some things that bugged me on my early visits to the place. Bistro food for the most part, with some other things mixed in at a decent price point. Nice place for dinner for 2 or a group. A younger crowd for the most part with good music and a couple of nice still life photographs (i like the one of the putty knifes especially). The wines are surprisingly good for the price points they offer them at. Not too shabby.
Rating: 1 Bunny
3. Teroni. I really like this place -- the courhouse one. The food is simple and good. The place is nice looking in a non-Toronto sort of way. I don't think you could go wrong here.
Rating: 1 Bunny
2. Delux. A new French Bistro on Ossington. I've been there quite a few times. So I know enough about it to review it, just haven't found the time to collect my thoughts. This a low key spot where minimalist is the operative word -- from the layout of the place to the menu and the wine list. The menu is simple and well curated, but solid. They are big on the characturie, and they might do most of it on sight (i'll have to ask about the sausage next time i go). Even the deserts are good. And you get all of this at a reasonable price. Hopefully, the economic downturn doesn't hurt this place.

1. Boba Well this is the second time a number #1 pick on my year in review has gone out of business. It's a shame. Of all the Yorkville high end places I've been too this is easily the best. They took things like the food and the service seriously. But I guess the owners decided to move or try something different. Oh well ...

Big Bunny's Girl of the Month: Gina Lynn
This month keep's the latin flavour and features Gina Lynn, although it's not readily apparent from the pictures -- she's not a real blonde. Gina has puerto rican and italian parents, started working as a stripper in her senior year at a catholic high school (according to wikepedia) and then progressed to working as a model and finally as a porn star, appearing in such classics such as "Drowning in Bitch Juice 3", "Oil Overload" -- a favourite of mine, "Big Tits at Work" and "Breast Seller 2" among many others (appearing in more than 100 fils). But Gina isn't an actress she also works behind the camera as a director -- talented and hot -- directing such features as Ultimate Feast 2 and 3, Black Attack 2 and some releases in the the Filthy Ho's and Fresh Breed series.
I'm sorry that this one is light on the pictures, but there is lack of jpeg's out there.

Real Estate Signs: A New Media Outlet
The street side garbage/recycling receptacles is a major outlet for real estate agents to advertise. But lately I've been noticing that some agents have been going upmarket. I guess its too degrading to have your image and slogan just below a garbage receptacle and get garbage and stuff seeping down on your brand.
The bus shelter sign is the new garbage can sign.
Check this one out.
"A new standard of excellence", as opposed to the old standard of excellence? Why not "Excellence in excellence!"?
This guy even has a little ad campaign going.
He's got a strategy that he's selling you. He has 74 options to choice from to help you.
First, he tells you his method 12.
Then he's got his method 31.
What I don't get is if he actually buys ads for all his methods? Probably not, because then he would just be giving away his secret to other real estate agents who would track down his signs or read this blog.
But I'm going to keep an eye for more ads from him to see if he reveals his secrets.

Real Estate Divas?
This caught my eye. I remember there being 2 divas before, but the flip side of the sign didn't have the other diva.
Here's the original sign
There should be 2 of them one that looks like Peg Bundy and another one.
I wonder what happened to the other diva? Maybe the lifestyle for a real estate diva is too fast paced -- drinks at a cougar bar, drinks at divorcee night at some hotel bar bear the airport, late dinners at Red Lobster or the Keg -- and she burned out. Or maybe they got into a fight. Peg might have stolen the other ones boyfriend or something.
hmmmmmm.........
I'm not sure we'll ever know for sure.
