Spine.cx Archive 2006

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.

I should write the Coast with this

Spine.cx Archive 2006

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...

Spine Radio on CKDU redux

Spine.cx Archive 2006

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 ...

Transformers fan film - The Rude Awakening of Optimus Prime

Spine.cx Archive 2006

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...

Spine Radio on CKDU

Spine.cx Archive 2006

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...

Apple releases iTunes 7.0

Spine.cx Archive 2006

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

Spine.cx Archive 2006

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...

Camping is fun

Spine.cx Archive 2006

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...

Free CDs (for the price of postage)

Spine.cx Archive 2006

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...

ANOTHER new radio station?

Spine.cx Archive 2006

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...

Camping in Boston

Spine.cx Archive 2006

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...
