I ended up in a conversation about phallic landscapes with a friend of mine tonight, and ended up scanning in a picture from my trip to Arches National Park in Utah.
A little supicious maybe? Yeah.
Hey, I don’t make the landscapes, I just take them.

Every so often I go check out Adcritic to get caught up on all the pop culture I’m missing by not having a TV. It’s amusing listening to people describing commercials on the bus, or the subway, as though they look forward to the spots in between their TV shows more than the shows themselves.
Anyhow, [...]

I built a Chinese website not to long ago, with all those little squiggly Mandarin characters, and I had to go completely on faith that I was placing the text in a way that was sensible. I can’t read or write a word of mandarin, so really I have no idea if I was even [...]

On my Rubik’s Cube, of course!

This evening on the bus home to Toronto we got two movies. (Finally! The last
6 or 7 bus rides I’ve been on have been moviless) First up was Charlie’s
Angels, and then Message in a Bottle.

Wait, no, it wasn’t Charlie’s Angels, it was “Heavily Edited Excerpts from

Right from the start I knew [...]

Every so often I check in on this british company called “Advanced Rendering Technology” or (conveniently) ART for short. They make special chips for doing all your rendering mathematics very very quickly. Before, you could buy clusters of processors for some huge amount of money… and I’d always decided that if I were a silly [...]

I needed to take a -really- good look at an egg today, for a project I’m working on. I’m trying to get a really good eggy-looking texture onto a character I’m developing. So I grab an egg out of the fridge, and figure that it’s probably a bad idea to have an egg just sitting [...]

So, yesterday, before the big gas main debacle, I had planned to have a bunch
of people over, and one of them was someone kinda new, and I wasn’t sure
about their bidet-use policy.

See, I have a bidet in my place, but I’m far from knowing how to use it. I’ve
tried twisting some of the knobs now [...]

So I think I’ve solved the mystery of the persistent puffy-eyes and colds
since I got down here… about 4 feet from my computer desk was a leak in the
gas main for the house.

It’s a good thing I’m not a smoker.

Anyhow, through the night and into this morning we had gas dudes in my house
crawling about [...]

I went out to a store on Queen Street called “Pages” the other day, looking
to take my first tentative step into the wonderful world of Zines. Thinking I
may have something to share with the world, and having done a bit of reading
online about the phenomenon of underground magazines, I clutched some money
in hand and took [...]
