Hello Again


'Gargamel the sorcerer is the sworn enemy of the Smurfs. He is an evil wizard, though his powers appear very limited; he actually seems to be more of an alchemist as his main ability is to create magic potions. His main goal in life is to destroy the Smurfs. He is perpetually stooped, his robe is worn and patched, and his teeth are rotten.' Source: wikipedia.com


Much time has passed and somehow I feel like Gargamel...

Harmer & Hayden

I saw Sarah Harmer & Hayden tonight (As well as last night). What an awesome show, the crowd was much better tonight. Hayden also had a much better performance. Sarah rocked the house with two encores (Again something that didn't happen last night). Thx for the music, kids.
Anyway. I decided to blog this since I can't sleep. No Foolin'. None.

changed my way of thinking
bopping away, all that kept me down"

Soooo negative...

My last few ramblings have been quite negative. Hmm.. did I really have to put that entire quote on there from Matt Good? I guess I've been cursed with a touch of the winter blues the last few weeks, I believe it is the lack of sunlight mixed with poor air quality. Could also blame my recent diet. I've eaten absolute garbage since I started my new consulting Gig, along with creating more than my fair share of garbage: let's see, avg of 2 styrofoam Second Cup coffee cups a day, sandwich wrapper, bag for sandwich, usually a salad (+1 more styrofoam container) plastic lid, plastic utensils, etc... It really is disgusting... I shall try to be a bit more enviro-friendly from now on.

In keeping with my yearly average, I received a traffic ticket on Friday night. The humorous part is what it was for - going the wrong way on a one way street. Unfortunately, there were a few people waiting for me at my house and I was rushing home from downtown, it was snowing, dark. I turned onto what I thought was a shortcut, and instantly realized that I was on a one way. Several cars were coming towards me and I stopped and put my car in reverse. Then I saw some pretty lights on the first car in the line. Yes, a cop - that folks is what we call "A kick in the Gnards". Anyway, I'm going to take this one to court, as my insurance is already violating me in many different ways. I do not need to give them any more reason to increase their violating tendencies.

I saw Kevin Smith later that Friday night at Roy thomson hall. That cat is damn funny. He talked for almost 3 and a half hours and didn't lose my attention once. Unfortunately, as we (T.O. / Canada) did with Conan, the Ryerson crowd came off as less than intelligent. Even mr. smith started knocking the shitty quality of the questions being posed. I shouldn't complain as I didn't exactly contribute, but c'mon people...

I have been informed that I have been granted a ticket to see Sarah Harmer on the 26th(?) of april. My Sarah withdrawal will be diluted once again.... this will be the 5th time I've seen her.... Hmm.... Is this considered stalking yet? I am also considering getting tickets for the next night too.... there isn't much quality live music around these days... must take advantage while you still can....

Wish me luck with keeping my vehicle.

there are only two things now
this great black night
and the fireglow "

Nostalgicism... Is that a word?

I went for a drive tonight, visiting a few places where I grew up.

Life is very strange.

"You know today I was only asked one question. And that one question all day ya know what that was? "Do you want this supersized?"
You know, come to think of it, I'd like the whole fucking world supersized. Supersized guns. Supersize planes. Supersize satellites. Think about how many more channels you could get with supersize satellites. Supersize sales. How do you supersize a sale? How 'bout we supersize third world debt relief. Supersize love. Supersize honesty. Supersize government. Come to think of it... actually, nah... let's not supersize the government. I'd like a supersize death. Can I have a supersize of death. I'd like a supersize of death with a coke. You know what we need? Some backup singers... we'll have like a little jingle. Kinda like that! You know. Supersize this song. Really, that's the goal isn't it? We can supersize the record. We'll sell more records! It's a supersized record. That is, afterall, our ambition.

Ambition. Ambition's a tricky thing. It's like riding a unicycle over a dental floss tightrope over a wilderness of razorblades. Ambition can backfire. Ambition means more. Ambition means faster. Ambition means better. I wonder if you can super... can you supersize ambition? Does that make you ambitious if you supersize ambition? Around here our ambition hurts more than it helps. Around here our ambition throws a non-perishable item in a donation bin at Christmas then it pats itself on the fucking back because it thinks it's done something decent. Yeah, we're supersizing ambition, make no mistake about it. Ambition will televise the revolution, and it'll sell more commercial spots than the Superbowl, the Olympics, the World Series and the tragedy du jour combined. We're supersizing. We're supersizing the record. 'Cause we're ambitious."

Arrgghhh....

When you peel away our formalities and niceties, we're all just a bunch of pricks.

An infinite number of pricks competing for a finite set of resources.

I believe this may be some being's idea of a cruel joke.

Well Ha, Ha. Very funny. Go fuck yourself, being.

Hello Blog..

Wow. A lot has happened in the last 4 months. As you can probably tell, I've been lacking in the blogging dept.
Anyway, here are some new things with me:


  • I finally got a new car which is the best car EVER. A fully loaded Audi A4 to be exact.
  • I got a new job which I started today. It is awesome so far.
  • I just got back from a week in Cuba on Saturday. I am now brown.


Well enough blogging. I should really expand on the last 4 months, but life is calling.

Can't forget to quote though:

It's been a long time now....

Hello Blog.
My apologies, I have been away for a while.
I will try not to neglect you again in the future.
