curling: ice cool, red hot

February 28, 2006 – 11:16 am

I know. I don’t believe it either.
It’s the year of curling. I mean, I know I live in Canada and all, and grew up getting clonked on the head by my mother’s brooms in the hall closet every time I reached for my jacket. We had a broom closet, but she didn’t keep her brooms [...]

Socialized Medicine Forever

February 28, 2006 – 8:16 am

The recent Speech from the Throne was interesting for many reasons, but the particular aspect which caught my attention was, as it so often is with politics, the part which made no logical sense and threatened the foundations of our country.
Ain’t that always the way?
Here in Canada, we’ve enjoyed one of the very best medical [...]

Censorware Censored

February 28, 2006 – 7:16 am

or at least confused to death.
BoingBoing, a techie/culture blog, has been put on a blacklist as featuring “nudity.” While it does, from time to time, link to some art including nudes, it’s not exactly your typical nudie site, mostly sticking to actually rather boring DRM reporting, book updates, “see what my friends are working on” [...]

save your pennies

February 27, 2006 – 1:32 pm

I looked it up: last year, Harry Whittington gave $6,500 to the Republican Party.
Obviously, this is not enough to prevent you from being shot by the Vice President. Looks like they’re taking the next campaign seriously, folks!

raincoaster 9.11

February 27, 2006 – 12:13 pm

Oh god, I hope I don’t burn in Hell for this. Actually, considering my resume, hard to imagine I have much to lose, eh? It makes more sense if you’ve read either Diary-X’s sad tale or John 11.1 and if you’ve read both you might even get a laugh out of it. Here goes…
Now a [...]

*moves away from the light*

February 27, 2006 – 10:58 am

and…she’s back!
 Thanks to my famewhoring and my low opinion of humanity (I count a bot hit as pretty much equal to a human hit, unless the human says something particularly intelligent and penetrating, such as, “I think you are brilliant!”) most of my late, great Diary-X blog has been archived on MSN, Yahoo, or elsewhere [...]
