During a breif break in my crazily busy day today, I went out to see (free,
thanks to Lynne!) Bowling for Columbine, Michael Moore’s newest film. I’ve
always been a fan of his, and I enjoyed his TV series TV Nation immensely.

Go see it if you’re in a pensive, thinking mood. Some of what he does and
says [...]

I saw the Ring on opening night, and it was a pretty scary movie. I think you
should go see it, if you’re into really weird and twisted things. I kept
getting pulled out of the film by funny little plot holes and technical
things that kindof bothered me, but for the most part it was [...]

So, there’s this website I was made aware of on Vicki’s weblog (which I don’t
have a link to on my site, but it’s not entirely public, it seems) called Rate My Kitten that shows you pictures
of cats in a style similar to ‘AmIhotornot’. I took a quick look through
their Top 10, and thought I could [...]

So, I -really really- am interested in preserving the environment, and I -am-
a Greenpeacer, and I (sometimes) recycle and I reduce and re-use, and all
that good stuff. But more and more often I see things that I question in
environmentalist media, and I’m beginning to suspect it of being more like
propaganda in most cases than actual [...]

My good friend Mark Demeny sent me this picture about a year and a half ago,
then forgot, and re-sent it to me. Which is cool, because I’d lost it. I
think it’s pretty great and I’m glad to get a second chance to post it. This
is Bert, the first Nasa Bovinaut, in an image [...]

I apologise for taking so long to update my site, I was just really eager to
get an image prepped for the site and kept leaving it at work. So, without
further adieu, tada, the coolest image of Jay ever taken, screwed up by a bad
disposable camera, and then corrected as much as possible in Photoshop:

That’s right, [...]

So, the nosebleed and horrible breathing problems were probably more related
to my ear infection that was developing, unbeknownst to me, when I’d written
that last post.

However, good news. I’m off to Moose Jaw soon to visit my aunt and uncle and
godchildren, and I’m eager to leave the office and eat turkey. Mmmmmmm.

Someone’s got a nosebleed at 2am, and it’s me.

I went to this horrible bar with the gang from work on Friday, and the place
was -so- smokey that I lost my voice in the hour I was there, I couldn’t
breathe any longer, and even two days later, I’m still coughing up grossness
and getting infrequent nosebleeds. (a [...]

So, I pointed out earlier to my friend Jen that most of the songs I go
looking for on Kazaa are attributed to the wrong artist.

Case in point: the William Tell Overture, which was composed by Rossini, is
incorrectly credited to, in no particular order, Beethoven, Mozart, Bach,
Puccini, REM (?), Pierre (???), Spike Jones, Mike Oldfield, and [...]
