How many times can I post a photo of Guiness? As many as I can drink!

Sometimes I sit at my computer desk (now a proper desk, not inset in a bookshelf), and consider what to write, other times, I just steal what Attila wrote and write that. My iPod died a few weeks ago, and it’s a pretty sad commute without one – but Apple did just announce their new-fangled […]

I potentially could ride my bicycle to work in the summer, just as much as I could potentially die from the invariably horrific bloodbath that would ensue; my carcass tossed from car to car, truck to truck, and bus to transport – Biking down major roadways in Toronto is a sure way to die. I […]

So I’ve got this Ms. pac-man table-top machine upstairs that belongs to my room-mate Dan. Some way, some how, while Attila and Jen were sleeping in the spare room, the glass on the machine cracked [read: they were banging on top of it]. The glass measures 55.6cm wide and 68cm long; it’s actually a octagon, […]

Lovely weekend to be sure, now if you all thought I’d post on Labour Day and showed up by clicking your bookmarks, remember to actually subscribe to blogs from now on. Note to those on medication; don’t forget it over long weekends – your brain will have baby-seizures.

I’ll be in Ottawa this long weekend, looking forward to spending time with the little lady. Enjoy the EX and the cottage and I’ll still have a better weekend than you.

Man, I’d be such a pervert if I lived in an apartment, especially those swank downtown ones that offer full views of luscious babes undressing in their perfectly back-lit condo’s – luckily I live neither in, nor around such spaces.

I never went to church as a kid (or as an adult I should add). Not to say I’ve never been in one, funerals, weddings, cubs & scouts, but really, they only appeal to me aesthetically.Being firmly Agnostic a church doesn’t represent the same things it does to many others. To some I’m sure it’s […]

“I could suck on a peach for hours.”I won’t really understand how Nick Cage saying that line is hot but apparently it is, so now when I see, eat, or say “peach” I think that quote.

So yeah, nothing great about this photo, except that I got my Hoya Polarizer last week and this weekend was my first chance to give it a try on some clouds. It really does knock out the light though, so I’ve been getting used to upping my exposure settings.

Feels more like “take off” Brad inspired me to try some sort of mash-up with a sky, to which I learned I really need to figure out what I’m doing first, and that I do a better job taking better photos than I do at processing them in Photoshop.

I recognize that many (possibly most) people don’t store their cars in their garages anymore; but I’m also going to assume that there come a point where you’re not even practically using it for storage – it’s basically become your back-yard dump.Mine is a perfect example (not pictured); I only put the stuff in there […]

I wonder if you can staple a post to death, like, staple it so much that you’ve effectively replaced the wood with steel reinforcement by mode of staple.

Raissa got her doggy’s junk chopped off this week. So I hope you’re both doing well.

Xtina told me this photo was boring, but I still liked the perspective it offered; the sky, and most importantly the house, one I’ve been trying to figure out how to shoot for a while now – so fuck it, it’s done. NEXT HOUSE!

I’m think I’m on to something with this… You can see an X-treme” version of this image here.

Something a grand little fundraising group is doing to support ALS research at Sunnybrook.

“Round here they call me Bee Pun, if you with the big gunsThick tongue, known to make a chick…“

Months ago, Aaron, Xtina and I visited the Ron Mueck exhibition at the National Art Gallery. It was very interesting, but we were disappointed that we were not able to actually take any photos of the exhibit – especially when you notice the abundance of imagery on the net.

I either:• A. don’t know how to focus my camera, AND don’t know how to properly spell shades of purple or• B. don’t care. Photo processed entirely in Photoshop CS3 Camera Raw, with some sharpening

You ever get the feeling like some people have it out for you, granted, I don’t think I’m that important, but sometimes it just feels like people don’t want you around.

Here’s a Hydrangea my mom gave me a few years ago, she all but told me that it would never bloom. Then it had one flower-head last year, and she said it was a fluke and that it wasn’t going to happen all the time so I should get used to it.Then came this year, […]
