Joel Plaskett song in a Zellers commercial
I'm watching the second part of a two part House M.D., and what should come on but a Zellers commercial. They've had some catchy music in their ads before, such as the Bedouin Soundclash, and the Be Good Tanyas. Keeping in my current form of making statement...
CBC offers way more podcasts
CBC is now offering podcast versions of what I'm willing to bet are your favourite shows. Have you ever wanted to listen to Definately not the Opera, but haven't been able to, because it's on right in the middle of Saturday afternoon? Now you can download th...
The Zunior.com Podcast
I have paired up with Dave Ullrich of Zunior.com to do a music podcast featuring stuff that you can buy at Zunior.com. This is only the first one, so don't be too harsh :) Hopefully, it will only get better. Please check it out and tell me what you think. ...
Canadian musicians speak out against copyright laws & DRM
It's about time somebody stood up and said something, and I'm proud that it is Canadian artists doing it. DRM makes it harder to listen to music. If I can't listen to a CD in my car, I can't bring it on a road trip, I can't push it onto my friends, and if th...

Metro Transit's clientele is top notch
Today on my way home, a fine gentleman sat next to me on the bus. He was so respectable that despite the fact that he was too drunk to do it successfully, he tried very hard to hide the fact that he was drinking a bottle of listerine. Every once in a while t...
What bars shall we visit?
So, nobody has expressed great outrage at the date of May 27th, so I'll take that to mean that it's a good one. The theme is still open for discussion, but a sure front runner is "Seal Clubbing". The only other suggestions were my original one, "Pub Crawl Id...
Bluetooth is good for something
So, my brother and I are sitting in the Economy Shoe Shop, and for whatever reason, we want to get on the internet. He has a Treo 650p, and he does it easily through the Telus' CDMA network. I have a Jasjar, and I could also do it easily, if I subscribed to...
How do you know when to stop wiping?

2006 Element
I am over at Portland street Honda and I decided to try posting to my blog with my handheld. I managed to take and upload some photos to Flickr. Then I got to the blog posting and I found that there are no square brackets or greater/less than symbols on this...
Pub crawl at the end of May?
Spring time means it's about time for another Spine.cx pub crawl. The tentative date is going to be May 27th. Keep that date free. The theme we're going with so far is "Pub Crawl Idol"...you can imagine the t-shirts. As always, if you have any suggestion...
The .NET Framework can't count past 256
Anyone who did arts in university can stop reading now. For the most part, I really like developing .NET applications. I think Microsoft has done a fairly good job at making a framework that's pretty nice to use. But there are some things that just piss m...
My new iPod
I've had my black 30 gig iPod now for a few weeks, so I figure it's about time I write something on her about it. First, let me say that the iPod is an amazing MP3 player. Its capacity and form factor are unrivaled by any other player out there. It simply h...
OMG!!! This baby seal is so cute
And I'm willing to bet that it's just as delicious. Originally posted on Monday, 2006-04-03 at 23:43:59.
Red carpet at the Junos
Through some good fortune, I was able to attend the red carpet ceremony at the Juno awards. I borrowed Ray's camera, which he was nice enough to lend me, and got some fairly decent shots of the musicians as they walked down the red carpet Argyle Street. If...
Eastlink wireless trial
For a while now, I've been noticing wireless hotspots around downtown called "Eastlink WiFi Trial #16" or something like that. I've tried connecting to them, but to no avail. Well, just today, I got an email from eastlink: Dear EastLink Customer, EastLi...
WTF is up with iTunes?
So, I picked up an iPod last week (which I'm still planning to blog about later, a little more in-depth) with my tax return money, and I decided to give iTunes a go as my primary music player. I know I always seem to have these fucked up problems, but this on...

Me on Electric Circus
I didn't want this video to get lost, so I stuck it up on YouTube.com. It's from back in 1999 when I was on electric circus: Originally posted on Saturday, 2006-03-18 at 22:00:13.
Anti-war protest hits downtown Halifax
Apparently some people were planning a big anti-war protest for Saturday around noon. I was just coming out of the farmer's market as it was getting started, so naturally, I whipped out my trusty camera and started taking pictures and a video. Sorry about th...
