Your morning news roundup for Tuesday November 13th, 2007, now with 100% less Jerrold:

Maybe this is the nice, balancing dollar news Tim was looking for the other day? After falling a record 3 cents (you heard me, three mondo cents), our dollar is worth a woeful $1.03 and change. Face it US of A, your dollar bites, hard.

McGuinty is claiming that our Prime Minister doesn't give a toot about Ontario's cities. Harper didn't have a response prepped, as he was busy finishing off his plate of stewed infant with a side of newborn kitten.

Anyone else dreaming of "making a mistake" with this facker?

4 guys were inducted into the Hockey Hall of Fame, located a few minutes away from some tasty gelato. Is it just me or are the names making it in not as legendary as they were in the past? Scott Stevens?!?

I may be a full-time skeptic, but even I can't explain paranormal phenomena like this.

Health officials expect super hero-esque powers to develop in the people of Port Hope, within a matter of months. I'll be happy so long as the writers for Heroes don't introduce yet another character that can have any power in the world or fly.

But wait, there's more!

There hasn't been a Dimanno Watch column at Torontoist in almost two weeks. Such lax journalisticisming warrants a score of two and a half Topping heads, on a scale of one to six.

But isn't it McGuinty's job to care about cities and he doesn't seem to care enough. Unless he gets to put a shovel in the ground.

Harper doesn't eat kitten. It gets stuck in his robot teeth.

McGuinty's one to talk.

Love the Topping scale.

So you don't think a Stevens, a guy who captained his team to 3 Stanley cups, won a Conn Smythe, played over 1600 games, 13 all star games, a career +393 and still managed to get over 900 points as a stay at home defensemen isn't legendary enough to be in the hall? There's a reason he was voted in on his first year of eligibility. Legend, plain and simple.

As part of the legendarily boring to watch mid 90's Devils, no, I don't really care for the man. Messier was also a questionable inclusion, as his last few years saw him waste away on the ice.

Topping is a wimp. Normally he'd be on this board bitching about it, but, again, he's a wimp.
