Partying with raincoaster

April 14, 2009 – 7:56 am

Yes, ladies and gentlemen, this is raincoaster herself, in the flesh (or at least in the disguise my alien leaders gave me when I undertook this mission – but enough of that!). This was last week’s Yaletown Tweetup at Capone’s with Hummingbird604, GreggScott, GusF (in the video), GusF’s partner who shall remain nameless till he [...]

William Shatner sings to whales.
Don’t ask me. I just blog this stuff.

So, is that what you call a podcast?

Fearless City Mobile at the Heart of the City and mobile online!

November 14, 2008 – 2:30 pm

cross-posted from FearlessCity, just so you know what I’ve been doing with all my copious spare time recently. And a damn good thing, too, because with all the extra exposure that site is up and down like a toilet seat.

As most of our readers know, Fearless City Mobile was all over the Heart of [...]

Brian Atene: the backstory

August 9, 2008 – 2:50 am

This is his best yet, although it is entirely lacking in that trademark zany WTF-ness we’ve come to know and love (?). If you’ve ever wondered what was the point of Brian Atene, grab a bottle of Coppola Rosso and watch this. And not just because he namechecked me!
Ah, he took it down AGAIN: embedding [...]

mo’ momo: so you feel like shit

June 7, 2008 – 6:17 am

See, this is why you shouldn’t mess with Canadians. Because not only did we popularize the concept of brutality in team sports (there’s no “I” in “ICU!” Oh, wait…Canadians say “I” will put “U” in intensive care, “C?”) but our motivational speakers don’t natter on about lathering your positive vibes over the pectorals of the [...]

Tech Support Rant

January 16, 2008 – 4:35 am

Foamy the Squirrel says it so much better than I could…behold the story of my life for the last 48 hours. The MP3 player’s program will load on the Pentium III/Windows 98 machine but will not run. The PIII will download, but not run, drivers for memory sticks and other USB devices, although it HAS [...]

Merry Cthristmas!

December 8, 2007 – 4:09 pm

Carol of the Old Ones
lyrics over the jump

It’s that time of year again; the time when families gather together (no, not the reading of the will!) and share what it means to celebrate Cthristmas.

It’s Beginning to Look a Lot Like Fishmen
lyrics over the jump

We at the ol’ [...]

It’s time for another episode of everyone’s favorite call-in show, and ohhhhh, by Shub-Niggurath, this is a good one! It’s not every day that you get to hear from Xenu himself! Wonder what Tom Cruise thinks of this?
