Movies are my favourite past-time. I watch them like some guys do sporting events and I get equally worked up. I like a great idea that’s been written well, directed well, acted well and shot well. I have my own laundry list of actors and directors that I follow as well. The only aspect of [...]

This is one of those random thought type blogs. I have been thinking about this little game I played as kid, to while away the hours on long road trips. I remember looking up at the moon through the back window. I was obsessed with the idea that the moon was following me wherever I [...]

My roommate, Dawn, is learning to play my electric guitar. She’s sitting on my futon, going through a Beatles playbook and teaching herself chords.

Okay, I can admit it, I’m always amazed by sleight of hand tricks. I’m like a child really. Show me a trick and even if (on the off chance) I know how how it’s done, I’m still amazed. Sleight of hand tricks are a genuine talent. Unfortunately, my butterfinger hands have no aptitude for them. [...]

Okay, I can admit it. The blog about Team Gopher the other day made me a wee bit nostalgic. Scotland, I don’t know why I love ya so much, baby, but I do. In my heart, I’ve never left ya. You know I’ll always love ya.
Shit. I feel like Evita.
 Anywho. I was perusing this wonderful [...]

Hey! I want to apologise for my recent absence here. Life got the better of me this past week. You have not been forgotten, however. During the interim a number of fascinating things have come to light and I’m not talking about the dozens of socks I’ve ‘rediscovered’ at the bottom of my laundry hamper. [...]

Little did I know that I would one day feel compelled to write about this show…
‘I love being with Matt,’ she said. She sounded so earnest. My mouth dropped open slightly. It was hard to believe that someone would do this in front of a camera. Still, people have done worse. I’m just sensitive, I [...]

Aren’t pants just overrated? I mean, haven’t you ever been out in public and thought, ‘I’d be a helluva lot more comfortable if I could take off these damn pants’? No? Well, maybe you should. Watch what one improv group perpetrated on the wholesome people of New York City. And, in the words of Homer [...]
