Does anybody remember Tiny Tunes? I think the most memorable quote was from a baby Plucky duck, watching an elevator going up and down in a mall he commented “Elelator go up! Elelator go Down… Elelator go down the hole.”
The source of the days being shorter (and colder) is the combination of the earths distance and rotation on it’s axis in relation to the sun. So at a breezy 10 am the sun’s just skipping over the surface of the horizon. I plan on taking advantage of this next June when I go to […]
JVL says: what do you think? aaron says: is that a pier near where we had lunch? aaron says: it looks like the deathstar in the background aaron says: can you sharpen it a little?.. it’s harder to make out the death star in it. JVL says: it is sharpened; I don’t think there’s much […]
Someday soon Dan’s moving in his Pac-man tabletop machine which will look fairly odd in a room stacked high with Quilting books. I guess Mrs. Pac Man probably knit herself, maybe she made herself the pink bow atop her head. Dan won the Pac Man machine from a bar we used to frequent, we each […]
Being in Toronto I guess it’s hard not to get the CN tower in a lot of shots, I kind of wish I didn’t though. You don’t see the kids in Ottawa always shooting the parliament buildings. R.I.P. Mike Serba
I’ve been cleaning the house up over the weekend. There certainly is a lot of *shit* to clean up, but I think the hardest part for me was taking a carload to Salvation Army; it was a strong act of finality that I had to experience. That and getting crazy Drunk with William and Daniel […]
This is a case of a shot *almost* working the way I wanted it. Bunny’s the most non dangerous dog of all time, if you look at the other picture I posted of her, you’ll see she can’t even make it up a ramp.
I am completely uninspired by this photograph. I like the colours and I’m *read: LUCKY* that it’s sharp, but it’s boring, it’s the Rogers Centre, formally known as the Skydome. As Attila pointed out to me, “how the fuck do you make the Skydome interesting?” You don’t. You just post it because it’s the weekend.
I can see the guys walking by this coupon late at night saying “aww man, sixty bucks? I’ve got a toilet; this is like free money!” I guess they must have noticed the fine print once they busted it open.
This setting reminds me of so many episodes of the West Wing, with some jogging by the river, and I kind of want to jog too. Except I’ve always had a problem of running or jogging without a place to go or a reason to rush. I need a destination, a purpose, a point. I […]
Once upon a time I enjoyed baseball, and most other people did too. The Jay’s had won back to back world series, we had Pat Borders, Roberto Alomar, Baseball cards were all the rage; and then shit happened. Baseball strike, Players want more money. You know what? Baseball’s kind of boring, I didn’t need it […]
I’ve been enjoying Toronto’s AFP conference for the past few days and I’ll tell you, I find it fascinating. I still can’t believe that I’m doing this stuff, and I’m loving it.
That’s either a corn-cob nose, a perky “Kari” nipple, or the worst ass-zit ever. Shit like that can leave you paralized for weeks.
Late one night we took a trip to Albion, no one was really in the mood to go, but we did it anyway. Far be it for me to follow the crowd, I suggested to Jen that we should dance a little bit. The provocative tease that she is, she started to wiggle her butt […]
blow away…
I walked around Guelph for most of the day Saturday, and on my way back to meet up with Steph I took a moment to snap off a few of these before the sun came down. Like Attila’s, this is basically straight out of the camera.
I’ve been ripping my old cd’s to my PC. I know most people have already done this, and I had too; for the most part. But after watching Jarhead with Aaron I had a mad Nirvana flashback. What have I been doing, listening to my iPod WITHOUT freaking Nirvana! It was madness. Anyway, this has […]
Steph said that this was her second favourite picture of mine. I was happy that she had a favourite; two is suh-weet! So I post this for my fans, and my peeps. Thanks for putting up with me on the weekend! P.S. your family is wicked!
Cute Kitty! This one belongs to William.
The Humber River has always been a staple in my life in Weston. My Oma and Opa would take me for long walks back in the old kinder-skool days. Last weekend I took Dan out for a three hour walk up the Humber. He’s lucky, because if I pushed him in there would still have […]
Who needs abortions when you have *awesome* stairs like this. Boyfriends everywhere rejoice.
This is probably as light as you’ll see this part of the 401. A good reason for that is that this was taken on a Sunday afternoon. On a more serious note, who the fuck wants to go to Barrie?
Attila and Aaron kept me company on Saturday; it’s comforting to know you have friends there for you when you need them. I guess keep an eye out for images from this roam on both their sites.
Those who knew me in high school know that I was allergic to beer. As it turns out, I was born with a much more sophisticated palette than most other teenagers, and I just didn’t like the taste of crappy high school beer. Labatt Blue did not, and will not do. Here’s to having better […]
