killer tissues

good to know that the tissues won't kill you. it's called proofreading, not just spell check. i suppose that's too much an extra expense for a store brand.

metallica kicking ass

interesting stage set-up for the metallica show

metallica assaulting the crowd

big hanging coffins

final encore: seek and destroy with mad balls

when other bands get off the stage immediately, metallica sticks around for 15 mins giving stuff out

bunny integration

and so begins the unhappy union of nonpaired rabbits. 2 weeks to friendship start now. you see, rabbits are territorial and since we're introducing non-paired rabbits, it takes time and pateince for them to get to know each other.

hooray for affairs

life is short, have an affair. well, when you put it that way... and an affair guarantee, shit, that's compelling.

diorama-rama

got tired of seeing my paperweight all boring so i made a domo, king kong, sci-fi fusion diorama.

rewards for being a nerd

WOOT! package from @wired has arrived for my part in the stormie vs. red shirt debate. thanks @hopkinsonreport

greed = slavery

glad to see anarchy making a comeback

wake up

exciting celebrity speaker at the #cne

sandy beave

sand in the beaver is usually not this happy.

hold them papers

the wind doesn't blow often in my office, but when it does i've got a great paperweight. it's actually an award i won for being digital media planner of the year.

fan expo art

didn't want to validate any people in half-assed costumes so i didn't take any pics of them. instead, here's some art i found.

small stain on my shirt

i try not to do things half assed, in this case stains on my shirt.

conehead rabbit

more of a disk than a cone. it does go nicely with her eyes though. #unhappyrabbit

nice parking job

is it standard practice to park on the curb in michigan? surely you must have known and i watched you made no effort to correct.

champy lives... on a uhaul truck

just seen on a uhaul - champy! this is likely meaningless to most, but super cool to me. google him and vermont

revamping the blog

yes, it's been some time since i made a post. the daily grind of taking a photo was cumbersome. and without good material all the time, i didn't feel i was giving enough to it (i lead a fairly staid life and don't get out much). but i've been watching the traffic stay constant, despite the absence of new material. so i've decided to revive this, just differently.

so here's what i'm going to do. i've been upping my twitter usage as of late and finally have a phone capable of taking decent pictures. i've been doing a fair bit over on twitpic and that's where i'm going to take this blog. i just need to figure out how to tie the two together and it will be a happy union and fresh content. by all means, follow me on twitter for the photos and my acerbic tweets.

a big change in the format though. a picture a day isn't feasible anymore. not enough interesting stuff where i feel i'm truly giving a unique experience and not calling it in some (many) days. instead, i'm going to be periodically posting pics here, hopefully between 3-5 times a week, material pending. some weeks it may be less. i don't want to set a bad expectation (as i already have with the name).

glad to be back.

bart's treehouse

that's quite the nice treehouse. maybe just needs a little update. bart simpson is passe. maybe time to make it dora the explorer or something a little more current.

the natural

look, the mythical baseball that was hit right out of it's shell from the movie 'the natural' with robert redford. 

leprechauns

my wandering eye caught this little slice of interesting in a tree line from the road. and this is the note that you can see jammed in the post above. there is an unknown story here that is beyond my imagination.

mcrealty

now there's a resturant makeover if i ever did see one. seems odd that they would convert an old mcdonald's into a realty office. wonder if they got the smell out?

subway clothes stash

so, here's the scene. 3 young men ran past me down the steps in the subway station. once on the platform, they proceeded to strip of their outer clothes and shove them under the bench here. don't want to be identified by your clothes much? now, what crime did we commit?

why the long face?

packed house

what a packed house - something like over 43,000 strong. this was a great game to be part of. like the days of jays past where the dome was full and the atmosphere was exciting. great to be part of and great to have them win in this kind of situation.

ezekial 4:9

bold naming choice after a bible verse. of course being the dilligent blogger i am, here is said verse:

Take thou also unto thee wheat, and barley, and beans, and lentiles, and millet, and fitches, and put them in one vessel, and make thee bread thereof, according to the number of the days that thou shalt lie upon thy side, three hundred and ninety days shalt thou eat thereof.

blueprint bin

so this is the place where terrorists get all those blueprints.

munching on doug gilmour

so this is what doug gilmour is doing these days? lending his name to trashy snacks? so these are to save the kids (through the charity the proceeds go to) but in doing so make people fat. are we okay with that trade-off?

hot dog vendor

this is not a good idea. who thought it would be? those who run a hockey arena of all people. just the place where you want it to be........ the least. i can't imagine the cleanliness of this machine.

swine flu hysteria

these hand sanitizer dispensers now adorn our lobby to pacate the masses into thinking they're safe from the swine flu. a nice gesture, to be sure, but a hollow one.

menopausal sleepwear

what the hell qualifies as menopausal sleepwear? really, i want to know legitimately. how on earth have they tailored sleepwear for the twilight of womanhood? 

pointlessly exaggerated walkway
