Just finished my first day in Saskatoon and I have to say it isn’t at all what I expected. It seems like a really cool, albeit small place. It’s like Calgary, without the ego and all the wannabe snowboarders. Here are some early observations:
+ It’s cold. Real cold.
+ People are friendly, but chatty, i.e. “Yes [...]
Don’t know why, but I decided to look for TV ads from New Zealand today. Lucky you.
This Bud’s for Hindu
Anheuser-Busch inks a deal to sell Budweiser in India. And they thought British colonial rule was bad…
Fuck the war on terror…
Residents of Oxford, Ohio have far greater woes. Apparently outdoor drinking games are fucking up shit in the community so much that council has been debating a ban at great length. [...]
Was sad to read that the Sam the Record Man on Barrington St. in Halifax quietly closed for good on Tuesday. A big supporter of the local indie scene, this is where I bought my first Sloan, Eric’s Trip and Thrush Hermit cassettes. The store also employed a lot of local band members while they [...]
So this is obviously a gimme for Natalie Portman, but lets do this just for kicks:
+ Natalie cut her hair to star in a hit movie. Britney cut her hair because she was tweaked.
+ Natalie went on to star in other hit movies. Britney went on to re-enter rehab, then bail, then… aw, who the [...]
According to People.com, Britney Spears has checked herself back into rehab — presumably to exercise whatever demons made her go bitchcakes this weekend.
And I say not a minute too soon. She was seriously starting to cramp my style.
Get well soon, freak!
Got back from Calgary late last week. I would have posted something sooner, but I’ve been recovering from the huge 2-hour time difference and 4-day bender.
Had a nice trip, but it’s nice to be home in the ghetto. The lack of crack, and sirens on Cow Town’s clean city streets was a refreshing change at [...]
British researchers have discovered how fugs get laid by breaking down the beer-goggles effect. Turns out it’s not just a made up excuse for frat boys who get caught in bed with their homely cousins.
Obviously, the amount of alcohol consumed plays a large role. However, according to the Manchester scientifics, a person’s eyesight when sober, [...]
You’d think with all the millions she’s making Nelly Furtado would be able to hire a stylist, or at least get a trim at SuperCuts. Instead, she’s quickly becoming one of Canada’s most fashionably challenged.
Seriously. Is she at the Grammys? Or a job interview at Value Village? I hope she takes off the blindfold next [...]
So last night’s Grammys were a disappointment. John Mayer winning an award for Best-Anything of the Year is a sign that music is in serious trouble. Dude is like Dave Matthews-light with prettier hair.
Anyway. In the absence of any real highlights from last night to share, I dug up one of my all-time favourite Grammy [...]
