St. Patrick's Day 2006

Spine.cx Archive 2006

What a blast I had on St. Patrick's Day. It started off with breakfast at the Old Triangle. I got there at 07h55, and the place was already packed. Brent joined me soon after that, and we sat down for a bite. Being as crowded as it was, it took a while...

Holy flamin' hoop, Batman! Reuters is reporting on a study that concluded Hot peppers kill prostate cancer cells. In the war of capsaicin (the chemical that makes peppers hot) vs. prostate cancer cells, the hot stuff won 80% of the time. That's huge. How...

Superfriendz @ the Grawood

Spine.cx Archive 2006

For anyone who didn't attend the Superfriendz show at the Grawood this past Saturday night, you missed a good show. I took some pictures. I also picked up their original cassette release "Sticktoitiveness", which they re-released on CD, and their 2003 releas...

Danko Jones - Sleep is the Enemy

Spine.cx Archive 2006

I picked up an actual CD for the first time in a long while this week. Every time I heard that Danko Jones has put out a new album, I just have to pick it up. The last one was non-stop rock fest of epic proportions, and their new one, Sleep is the Enemy is m...

Google Calendar is coming

Spine.cx Archive 2006

You had to think this was coming. Google is developing a web calendering application that will be closely integrated with Gmail. I'm psyched. There really hasn't been a great solution for a calendar that is available on the internet. The closest so far has...

Maternity Leave (Fucking CTV)

Spine.cx Archive 2006

Fucking CTV. Why would you change the time of the best show that you have on your fucking station? Why would you force me to find out about this change in time by accident? If it weren't for getting my television shows from the internet, I would be that muc...

Public hearings on buildings extended

Spine.cx Archive 2006

They are extended the public hearings on the two buildings proposed for the old tex-park site. There will be another hearing on next Tuesday, March 7th. Anyone else feel like going down and voicing an opinion? I just heard some of the opposition to these ...

Time to do my taxes

Spine.cx Archive 2006

I calculated my taxes and all that jazz, and by my calculations (actually, the calculations of UFile.ca), I'm getting approximately $343 back from our new Conservative government. I am seriously thinking about picking up a piece of technology from Apple in th...

The Long Con

Spine.cx Archive 2006

This episode was good in terms of character development, but really did nothing to advance the mythos of the island. If you listened to the official Lost podcast, you'd know that they said this episode was basically about making Sawyer look like a badass agai...

Great blonde joke

I haven't heard a good blonde joke in a long time, but this one is hilarious. Let me know what you think. I laughed out loud. Originally posted on Saturday, 2006-02-04 at 13:16:49.

Motorist attacks bike courier

Spine.cx Archive 2006

Bernie sent me this remarkable account of pedestrian journalism from Toronto. A photoblogger caught some shots of a motorist attacking a bicycle courier going down. Apparently they were so good, the Toronto Star stole them and used them as their own. Shame ...

Stephen Harper is weird

Spine.cx Archive 2006

I'm watching the news last night, and inevitably, there is a story about Stephen Harper, and how he's the prime minister designate and about to take office and everything. That's all well and good. The weird part comes when they show a shot of him dropping h...

Fire and Ice

Spine.cx Archive 2006

Overall, I think this was a fairly boring episode, but I think we can glean some fairly significant revelations from it, the least of which being Charlie's background. I think this episode, even though it seemed to center around Charlie, was really alluding t...

I have the biggest ego on the internet

Spine.cx Archive 2006

According to EgoSurf.org, I outrank just about everybody else with whatever criteria they use to determine ego. I think it has to do with how many search results for Steve Dinn come back with spine.cx links. Originally posted on Tuesday, 2006-01-24 at 14:48:...

Election Babble

Spine.cx Archive 2006

I took the test on PoliticalCompass.org and I found myself to be quite left-leaning. But the more I listen to and read about what the NDP have to say this time around, the more I find myself wanting to vote Liberal again. I would definately rather have a p...

Two-Tiered Milk

Spine.cx Archive 2006

I was in the grocery store today to pick up some milk, and I found that when I got to the cooler there was something different...something I did not expect. There was a new type of milk, and I wasn't in the loop. I don't like it when this sort of shit goes d...

Spine.cx Archive 2006

Matt, Jay, and I checked out the grand opening of Sensations last night. The protesters were there in spades sporting some nice signs. There were supporters there too, which was nice to see. We waited outside in line for about 20 minutes. I'm sure they mad...

Monitor envy

Spine.cx Archive 2006

I just got a new monitor, and I'm very happy with it. However, as happy as I am, I am still easily made jealous when I see pictures like this.. This dude can go to hell :) I can't imagine how much all that cost...especially since it's all Apple brand stuff,...
