Everybody who's anybody is going to be at the Attic this Saturday night to see Chixdiggit! for their Halifax Pop Explosion appearance. This band is probably my favourite live act. Their energy on stage is legendary and their music is short enough to hold e...

I know we live in Nova Scotia, where the weather can change in an instant. So why isn't it changing now? How much fucking water can possibly be up there? Surely we've seen it all by now. It's been raining all fucking weekend...and not just drizzling, I mea...

I ventured out into my neighbourhood today. Many things have changed since I've been gone. I took some pictures using my jizz-jar. Click inside and we can walk through them. 1. It looks like the ol' Copper Penny is getting a new facade. I don't think...

One of the cool things about going to the PDC was the crazy deal that was announce during the keynote speech on the first day by Jim Allchin. An i-mate Jasjar, normally retailing for about US$1200 for the low, low price of US$160. And if you were one of the ...

I am posting this from a new PDA/cellphone/wi-fi device...I'm still getting used to the keyboard, or thumbboard as it seems to be. Anyway, a session on MMC 3.0 is about to start so I'll check you guys later. Frosst and I will put up some audio as well. ...

Fucking woke up at 0345h this morning to get my 0430h ride to the airport to catch my 0610h flight to JFK and then onto LAX. Cool incidents were that I went through security at JFK right behind the Wayans Brothers. That was pretty neat. I'm glad to see that...

Due to a few requests, I have set up a mailing list so that people can be notified via email when a new Spine.cx Podcast comes out. I'm not sure why they just don't subscribe via RSS, but to each their own. If you would prefer this method of announcement f...

Is it just me or have there been a lot of plane crashes in the media lately? Toronto's Air France crash, Greece's Cypriot airliner crash, Venezuela's charter jet crash, and now one in Switzerland. Everyone always says that flying is statistically safer tha...

Steve & I went to test drive a Dodge Charger and ate at Dave Doolittle's. Post in the comments here if you want to go on a Alexander Keith's brewery tour or a Harbour Hopper ride tomorrow (Saturday). Listen to this one in headphones if you can ;) Original...

I didn't really get a chance to do some of the great suggestions I got, because I didn't go downtown today. I did, however, get to go out to the Redwood Grill for supper. In the SteveCast, you'll find my review, as well as some talk about the suggested activ...

I take a suggestion from Ryan Belbin and hit the batting cages at Atlantic Playland. Afterwards, I drive around a bit and hit the Vines Pasta Grill for supper. All in all, not a completely boring day. Keep the text messages coming! Email me if you must. ...

I'm on vacation and bored out of my mind. Send my phone a text message with what the hell I should do today. I'll try and record it for the next SteveCast. Edit: Today's music was brought to you today by Punk-O-Rama 10. Originally posted on Wednesday, 2...
