This case for the Motorola RAZR makes it look like it was made by Michelin. I suppose it might also save it from a fall down the stairs: Originally posted on Saturday, 2006-10-07 at 15:28:39.

A Nova Scotia judge has issued a ruling stating that the provincial government went beyond its powers by preventing grocery stores from opening 7 days a week. The article goes on to say that the Premier would "clear the way for wide-open Sunday shopping". ...

So, the Rolling Stones were here. They set up on the Commons nearest the corner of Cogswell and North Park streets. North Park street was blocked off and the traffic light pattern was changed. I am not going to complain about sitting on Rainnie drive at a c...

After receiving confirmation from the powers that be, I am more sure than ever that Spine Radio will hit the actual airwaves tonight at 0100h. I realize it's a bit late to post this in the hopes that anyone is going to listen live, but if you're curious what ...

This has got to be one of the funniest fan-made videos I've seen in a long time. Of course, I probably find it funnier than most because I watched every damn episode of the Transformers like I would break out in hives if I didn't. Rodimus, give me back th...

For anybody who listening for it like I was, Spine Radio was NOT broadcast last night (Tuesday @ 01:00) on CKDU, 88.1 FM in Halifax, nor was it the previous week as I had thought. I sent an email to the program director at the station and she's looking into w...

Earlier tonight, Apple released iTunes 7.0, mainly a vehicle to allow the sale of movies through the iTunes store, and an update to the video iPods to allow them to play downloadable games. I'm happy because the updates fixed a few of the biggest problems tha...

Firefox 2.0 Beta 2 came out a couple of days ago, and despite my bad experience with Beta 1 (that I suppose, in retrospect, I should have blogged about), I decided to throw caution to the wind and give Beta 2 a try. In 1 1/2 days of use, I have been pleasantl...

I need a hobby. Well, a hobby other than one that involves me sitting in front of a computer. Anything that doesn't involve me being sedentary. I've established for myself that I hate softball, so that's out. What else is there? Recently, while on my tr...

My step-brother, David Picco is going to be touring Atlantic Canada in the next few weeks. (He's from Newfoundland, but is currently living in Toronto.) He's playing on Saturday, August 26th at Ginger's Tavern on Barrington Street, and then again on Wednesda...

Blogger Dave Cheong has come up with a list of 18 ways to stay focused and more productive at work. I'll bet one of them is not posting on your blog...unless your blog is your work...I wonder what that's like? Originally posted on Tuesday, 2006-08-15 at 10:0...

I mentioned this a couple of weeks ago in a Spine Radio episode, but Brobdingnagian Records is giving away albums for the measly cost of packing material and postage. I can't think of a much better deal. When they're gone, they're gone, so stock up! Origi...

Driving around today, I noticed a van beside me in traffic with 88.9 something something on the side. Unfortunately, this is another fucking classic rock station. Yes, exactly. That is exactly what Halifax needs. We have a huge shortage of classic rock s...

Spam of the week: From: Adam Phelps <AdamPhelps@0451.com> Date: Mon, 12 Jul 2004 17:49:18 -0060 Subject: Q22 Silence. Stuck out my head. Nobody. And I went on my way, whistling a tune. Jonathan sighed. The price of being misunderstood, he thought. ...

Plans are starting to come together for our road trip to Boston. We've been researching campsites so we can travel on-the-cheap, and I think we've settled on Wompatuck State Park. It's about 30 minutes south of Boston, so we should be able to drive to the ne...

I've implemented a new feature that will let you guys not only decide whether to post a blog entry to the home page or not, but decide from 4 distinct levels of privacy for them. While coding the feature, I was thinking that it would be cool if everybody coul...

For those of you who have always wanted to try real absinthe, but haven't wanted to import it from France, now's your chance. Vin Art Wines will be offering tastes of the green fairy this Saturday from 1 to 5 pm. Not only can you pick up a bottle of this s...

There are two fairly major concerts happening on the Dartmouth waterfront this summer. The first being Wilco on July 12th, and the second being NOFX on August 14th. Some of you might know that I have a hard time paying the fucking crazy prices that so-call...

Check my Flickr photos for some pics of the pub crawl. If you have photos of your own, post the URLs in the comments. I think a good time was had by all, even if Beth didn't win any awards :) Originally posted on Sunday, 2006-05-28 at 23:21:19.
