I'm drinking too much tea and procrastinating writing an essay. It's like being an undergrad all over again, except that I have to be up at 7 am to go to work. Also, unlike undergrad, the essay isn't due tomorrow, so that's different. I now get these things done two days in advance yo. Let's call it progress ( Read more... )

All right, so as discussed previously my Canadian election coverage was subpar. It was unfortunate, but so it goes. Fortunately life offers up chances at redemption, and here we are with the USA's long-awaited presentation of Futility '08. YES WE CAN ( Read more... )

Well, it looks like another Conservative minority government up here in good old Canadialand. Harper has stated he intends to treat it like a majority, and for the next year or so he'll likely have his way. No one is going to leap right back into another election.

Impatient for the TTC, I ran. Dufferin, Ossington, Grace(Christie), Bathurst, Spadina, they flew by. Dundas, College, somehow I'm at Bloor. Look at me go, endorphins battling alcohol on the issue of sobriety. What's left is a sort of clear perception surrounded by fog. As soon as the heart slows and the lungs return to your regularly scheduled ( Read more... )

I spent my Sunday watching the end of Metal Gear Solid 4(MGS4). Emphasis on watching, because in terms of actual game play I got in perhaps an hour and a half and spent the other four or so hours idling in front of cinematics. I don't often play console games, but with my roommate owning all three major systems and generally acquiring any major ( Read more... )

Lucas was none too pleased with my (possibly drunk) knee-jerk post in response to some story or other involving some crazy Islamic censorship, so I will at some point in the near future fill this space with a wonderfully boring treatise on my perspective regarding religion, free speech, political correctness, and tolerance. But right now I'm le ( Read more... )

My department went to an all you can eat Japanese place for lunch on Friday. I ate a lot of food. A lot lot. Now I can't stop eating. I have entered a permanent state of hunger. I will devour worlds. YOUR world maybe. Watch out, because damn am I hungry.

He's a loserI don't understand my growing love for Static-X. Such things are supposed to happen in teenage years, not mid-twenties. Oh well. Arrested development perhaps ( Read more... )
