Muammar Gaddafi
With regards to The Libyan Leader; Muammar Gaddafi. Bill Maher put it very simply last night on his HBO show: Real Time with Bill Maher
“…No you don’t look like a handsome elder statesman. You look like a joke.”
I couldn’t agree more!
For example, look at this picture. Now I understand the medals of honor… but what is that picture doing there…...
Fixed Gear Bikes: Stupid.
This is only true if 2 Conditions are met:
You live in Halifax, &
You only bought one because they are trendy.
I walk by NASCAD Campus everyday on my way to work and see trendy art kids who don’t even know how to ride a normal bicycle struggle hurendously on a fixed gear bicycle. This is a bike that has no freewheel, one speed, and the only way to stop is to backpedal. Furthermore,...

Hockey Pools: Pointless?
I have recently joined two (yes, 2) hockey pools for the 2009-2010 NHL Hockey season. Will being involved in this 2 pools increase the amount I follow the game? Will they increase the amount that I enjoy watching hockey? Do I simply watch less hockey only because the Leafs are hopeless and they will never win a Stanley Cup?
Look, I am a realist. I never played the damn sport past the age of 13. I...
Blog Hiatus :(
I am back.
Yes, almost a week and a half later. I’ll spare you the explanation.
“West of the range, folks always high”
– Shad
In this quote (from his a capella freestyle) from Thursday night, Shad states that west of the Canadian Rockies… FOLKS ALWAYS HIGH.

Patrick Swayze.
Of all your movies, I enjoyed Point Break the most. A great film, here is the essence of the plot;
“An FBI agent goes undercover to catch a gang of bank robbers who may be surfers.”
I love how the lions share of the suspicion surrounds the fact of whether or not they are surfers!! An absolute masterpiece. Patrick Swayze, you made many people crazy… with...
Good Clean (Cheap) Fun.
**Paul and Adam are talking on the phone**
Paul: "...ya, that's cool that you got that fungus looked into."
Adam: "Thanks for the support, I was a little worried there!"
Paul: "So, you wanna go see Shad at the Paragon this Thursday?"
Adam: "I dunno man.. I'm pretty short on cash"
Paul: "Let me check online quickly... it can't be more than 20 bucks. You can spare $20 right?"
Adam: "Meeeeehhhhhhh..IIIIIIIIII dunnoooooooooooooooo...."
Paul: "The show is $9.50"
Adam: "Liar."
Paul: "Actually it's $8.00"
Adam: "What? where are you getting these numbers from?"
Paul: "See you on Thursday!"
Adam: "Ok!"

Rather silly indeed!
Owen - New Leaves - New Leaves
“Owen will be a polite, enjoyable experience that I imagine will be a very nice...”
– Adam Barrett
Speak the truth Adam…. speak the truth!
The world needs more Owen.
Owen.
Playing the Halifax Pop Explosion this fall. Sadly, I will miss him due to the fact that I will be seeing Girl Talk who will be playing at exactly the same time.
Shame on me. However, Adam Barrett lends a relevant and rather appropriate explanation of how the solution (that being, forgoing Owen and going to Girl Talk) is justifiable. On top of that, I have already seen Owen before.. so it...

How much Bacon can a man eat?
brownj:
My place smells like bacon mixed with ketchup roughly about 4 out of 7 days a week. Somehow my roommate consumes this daily meal on a regular basis, and continues to breath. How much longer can this go on for? How much bacon can a man eat?
I have witnessed this half man, half beast consume endless amounts of breakfast food. Primarily bacon. What I found most shocking was when I was in...

Long Weekends Make Me Tired.
It’s nothing to complain about. But it seems like the weekends consist of very little rest for me… the longer the weekend, the less rest.
I Have A Moustache Right Now.
It’s a good feeling.

Brown & Brown:
Great title, one dude is Brown and the other is a Brown.
My #1 Brown Bud might be moving to Halifax… and soon!
Sameer Alladina, shown below, is a genuine, great guy, who also happens to be a hilarious dude to hang out with. His presence in Halifax would be greatly welcomed by many.
Hope to see you soon Sam…

Why Do Infomercials Suck?
You know we all hate infomercials, yet love them in a satirical kind of way. I tried to think of specifically why I hate them tonight and came short of a legit answer.
My knee-jerk reaction was that they are selling us crap we don’t need. Ok sure, maybe I don’t need it but someone must. The other knee-jerk reaction (I believe it was my left knee) was that they are getting rich off of...
