Downtown littered with copper penises
I know I'm not the only one to notice the rather-penis-shaped copper-colored "community bulletin boards" that have been...well, erected around the downtown area. (Man, there's just WAY too many metaphors there.) They're supposed to stop the wanton posting ...
FNP 5: Shirts are in!
Picked up the shirts yesterday. They're pretty cool. If you want 'em, come and get 'em. I'll have them in the office today, but I can leave your shirt with Moose if you so desire. Originally posted on Wednesday, 2002-04-24 at 07:12:48.
I appear to be rubbing off on others. Not sure that's a good thing :)
Brent has purchased for himself a new 55'' widescreen television and a progressive scan DVD player. Although I'm less than thrilled at his choice of Samsung components, I applaud this new foray into the wonderful world of high priced electronics. Since his...
Crazy Ants Wiping Out Christmas Island Crabs
SYDNEY (Reuters) - "Crazy Ants" are devouring the famous migrating land crabs of Australia's Christmas Island and may have killed off up to half the crab population in the past few years, a conservation official said on Wednesday. http://reuters.com/news_...
The manual for my bedside lamp
I wanted a new bedside lamp. I went out to Home Depot and bought a new bedside lamp. I wasn't able to completely understand the instruction manual, but luckily there exists a medium where idiots can ask questions. It is called the Internet. I scanned it ...
My Furniture is here! (Theatre renovation Pt. II)
You may remember, a LONG while back, I posted about how I was getting my theatre room renovated. I waited for the furniture I wanted to go on sale, and shortly thereafter, in the first week of January 2002, it did. I purchased said furniture, and so began ...
My god, giant ants in California
California has been taken over — 'conquered', if you will — by a master race of giant ants. It's difficult to tell from this vantage point whether they will consume the captive earth men or merely enslave them. One thing is for certain, there is no stopping th...
Vanilla Coke, How Long Will This Last?
This article on cnn.com states that Coke is reportedly working on secret plans for a vanilla version within the next few months. I dont know about you, but im thinking vanilla floats will be in order if this is happens. P.S. What ever happened to Crys...
Roger Ebert on music piracy
I gain more respect for Roger Ebert every day. Here is an intelligently written commentary on the state of internet music sharing and how it relates to the music industry. He talks about Universal's new CD copy-protection scheme that will render CDs unplayab...
AdCritic.com is coming back!
Seen on FARK, but definately newsworthy enough to be seen here as well. The popluar site that hosted all kinds of advertisements, like the classic "Vikings?!" ad, and the "Dodge Aries" spoof is coming back! AdCritic had originally shut down a few months ag...
Klingon Google
This is the most retarded thing I've seen all week. I know Google is trying to be all multi-language and stuff (I tend to get redirected to Google.ca most of the time), but this is ridiculous. A version of Google for Klingons. Originally posted on Wednesda...

Spam sucks! (and so does trafficmagnet.net)
First off, please DO NOT go to trafficmagnet.net. I don't want to give those bastards any traffic. They are the scum of the earth and should be destroyed. The reason? They have webcrawlers that go and harvest email addresses from web pages for the sole p...
Feature: Spoo.ca
Spoo.ca is another Halifax website, run by Simon Leither. As it turns out, spine.cx and spoo.ca both decided to use PHPNuke around the same time, in August 2001. Simon was even nice enough to post an article about the Pub Crawl. It's a pretty cool site all ...
It's St. Patrick's Day!
Get out your shamrocks and your leprechans, and wear something green. This Sunday is the day when everyone is Irish. It's time to drink green beer and insult the British. Then we drink more green beer, maybe some good Irish whiskey, and stumble all the way ...
Live action remakes of anime movies & shows
Recently, I've seen more than one account of rumours that anime television show Dragonball Z and ultra-violent anime movie Ninja Scroll are going to be remade as live action movies. What's the deal here? Where are they going to find an actor with Goku's ha...
Canadian Gov't to raise taxes on recordable media
I'm sure many people have seen this on Slashdot, but I think this needs as much exposure as it can get. Here is a PDF describing the atrocity. Basically we're looking at $1.23 for all CD-RWs, $2.27 for all DVD-Rs, and a completely ridiculous $21/Gig tax on...

Jayden Cole Pick was born March 9th, 2002 at 1147h at the maternity wing of the IWK hospital. He weighed in at 7 lbs 3 oz, which I think puts him slightly below Featherweight :) Congratulations Jeff & Crystal. EDIT: Pictures of baby Jayden are just a li...
