Windom Earle at Stage Nine

Spine.cx Archive 2006

I'm killing myself waiting for this show. Go check out Windom Earle tonight at Stage Nine or you'll regret it. I mean it. They rocked the house at the Sappy Records Music Festival, and they'll rock the house again, I'm sure of it. Originally posted on ...

MySpace is a scourge (to tabbed browsing)

Spine.cx Archive 2006

The worst thing about MySpace isn't the ugliness of the site. It isn't the fact that it's horribly slow. For anybody who uses tabbed browsing regularly, it's got to be the music player that starts playing as soon as the page loads. I can appreciate the us...

New condom technology

Spine.cx Archive 2006

Who would have thought that they could improve on the condom? I mean, everybody knows they suck, but they do the job, right? I must admit, I haven't thought about it much myself, but you wouldn't think there was much room to advance in prophylactic technol...

Spine.cx Archive 2006

Random thought

Spine.cx Archive 2006

Body parts are like remote controls: They cost almost nothing to produce, but they're very expensive to replace. Originally posted on Thursday, 2006-11-23 at 16:13:36.

I am selling some vintage computers on Ebay right now. If you're in the market for some museum pieces or just looking for a better doorstop, go on and take a look at my auctions. If you're in Halifax, I'll deliver them to you for free. Just think, YOU cou...

Axl Rose sings "Liquor and Whores" with Bubbles

Spine.cx Archive 2006

Somebody managed to get away with video-taping the Trailer Park Boys on stage with Guns'n'Roses. Axl actually sings a couple of verses of "Liquor and Whores" with Bubbles. Cool shit. Originally posted on Thursday, 2006-11-23 at 00:33:56.

Sounds re-instated after IE 7 upgrade

Spine.cx Archive 2006

I recently upgraded to IE 7 thanks to Windows Update. I thought everyone could benefit from something that I noticed after I started using it for a while. The machine I upgraded was the one I use to record the Spine Radio and Zunior.com Podcasts on. If yo...

CCTV Cameras + Google Video = Halifax's next income source

Spine.cx Archive 2006

I've been thinking about the new video camera that Halifax has focused on the corner of Grafton and Blowers, "Pizza Corner" for us locals. Cameras are great for capturing all the stupid shit we do -- especially when we're drunk. And where do most drunken vid...

My photos on LeftHip.com

Spine.cx Archive 2006

The rumours are true -- I'm all kinds of new media. Not only do I have a mean radio voice, but I take a wicked photo as well. A couple of my photos from the Halifax Pop Explosion were used for a feature on the Pop Explosion by Left Hip Magazine. Origin...

Headphones

Spine.cx Archive 2006

About once a year, I go on a hunt for a pair of headphones. Last year, I picked up a Sennheiser HD570 set. I found them to be a great pair for home listening, but they're not exactly what I'd call 'portable'. I also bought some inexpensive cans for the Spin...

My own personal feed, burned

Spine.cx Archive 2006

Just now, I went and hooked myself up with a feedburner feed for my personal blog here on Spine.cx. What's really cool is that I found out that I can have all the links that I post with del.icio.us, and all the photos I post on Flickr spliced into the feed wi...

Motorola SLVR L7 Review

Spine.cx Archive 2006

Last week, I bought a Motorola SLVR L7 from a guy on eBay. It's basically like the RAZR, but it's the candy bar style of phone instead of a flip phone. So far, I'm liking it. It's not that I didn't like my iMate Jasjar, but there are some obvious advantages...

Sunday Shopping

Spine.cx Archive 2006

As I'm sure everybody here expected, I made it my mission to go out shopping on Sunday. I headed for Bayers Lake and shopped at both Futureshop and the Superstore. Futureshop was completely unprepared for how busy their store was going to be. Only one che...

Spine.cx mentioned in the Halifax Herald

Spine.cx Archive 2006

In case you hadn't caught it, Spine.cx was mentioned in the Halifax Herald a couple of days ago. I'm wouldn't be surprised if you didn't catch it; it was quite inconspicuous. It was only after it was pointed out to me by Brent that I saw it myself. Anyway...
