Subway – Geometry over Grade

In what can only be called a nut-sackingly good idea, Subway “Restaurants” has decided to start arranging the “cheese” slices on their sandwiches in proper tessellated format. That means (for those of who you cannot right-click-dictionary that shit... More >

Rogers, Continued.

The fallout from this whole Rogers fiasco continues. First they added insult to injury by replying to my complaints via a Twitter account, rather than, you know, the phone number of my current Rogers iPhone. Which they would have if they had read the copy of the post I sen... More >

Top 5: Reasons I hate driving in Montreal

First I would like to qualify my post by saying that, in general, I love the city of Montreal. There is no other city like it, where hundreds of different cultures can coalesce into something as brilliant and unique, full of life, music and art (and counterculture too!). I almost ... More >

The Moderate Muslim View?

There are plenty of things that the Judeo-Christian Bible expressly forbids, but no one but the most extreme followers actually observe them. A few examples would be Poly/Cotton Blends (Leviticus 19:19), eating shellfish (Leviticus 11:10), and a woman grabbing an attacker’s testicles... More >

Holy Shit! We’re back!

Jesus fucking Christ! (Feels good to swear sometimes, doesn’t it?) Okay so the site still doesn’t fully function, but I’ve decided to make this site work for me. But first I’m going to lay down a few rules. They are for anyone looking to start a fight based on some ... More >

Best Shots of 2009

I’ve had my DSLR for just over a year now, and while I don’t fully understand how to use its myriad settings, I like to think I at least have a good eye for shots…occasionally. This year I drove through the maritime provinces, visited my ancestral home, and went to Newfou... More >

French Wipeout?

Television without cable isn’t so bad. I live downtown and I get CTV in HD over the air (but not through the ocean), Global and CBC most times, and sometimes I can get City-TV and Omni 1/2. I also get several French channels. Now I like to think of myself as a bilingual couc... More >

I can't quit you, baby.

…but I can’t finish you, either.

A website is a little bit like a child. You conceive it (though using methods hopefully unlike the ones employed by humans) and grow it inside your computer, and – when it’s ready – you unleash... More >
