Boa Constrictor

While I may know a thing or two about suits, I know nothing about keeping a boa constrictor as a pet. Add another item to the list of things that I know I don’t know.

The Back-up Plan

I just watched a film called “the Back-up Plan”. About half-way through it I thought it would be hilarious if I were to live blog watching it. As funny as that would be, it wasn’t worth re-starting the film for. Instead, this post offers you a way to imagine what such a post would [...]

Mysterious Medication

I am feeling ill and I cannot sleep. I took some mysterious medication that I bought in Germany. I seem to recall that I took it for similar symptoms, but now I am not sure about whether or not it had any caffeine in it. This could be a problem.

“Do you have the Optimum?”, the young lady at Shopper’s Drug Mart asked.

Mozart’s Symphony No. 40, Visualized

Last night I had the pleasure of attending “A Piano Celebration” at the NAC. It was a great performance–the first in the Signature Series for the 2010-2011 orchestra season. I enjoyed it so much that I have become even more upset that I will miss the orchestra’s performance of Mozart’s “Triple Crown”–symphonies 39, 40, [...]

Black Devil – Moscow Ride

If you read autoblog you’ve already seen this, but I just had to repost it.

There is a video on YouTube of “Black Devil”‘s ride through Moscow. It is completely insane. You have to watch it. If you get bored (unlikely) skip ahead to the 4:00 mark.

What a way to shorten the commute [...]

Housekeeping Sunday

I just had a housekeeping Sunday. I was in desperate need of one.

I did laundry, cleaned my bathroom, vacuumed (upstairs only), and cleaned out the fridge. The fridge had a lot of food in it that was past its prime. I had amassed a huge amount of leftovers that, try as I might, [...]
