PMO had better get a lawyer
Their talking points on this organization – which I know well, and which I know to be both moderate and law-abiding – are way, way, way over-the-top. Jason is going…
Raptors come out for Olivia Chow for mayor!
Well, not really. And she’s not a candidate, as far as I am aware, so I guess that should be kept in mind, too. Anyway, I’m a Raptors fan, and…
Toronto needs a mayor: cause and effect
Rob Ford has allegedly lost some weight. I take alleged note of this.
The Toronto Star on Olivia Chow

SFH: I Am A Confused Teenager
I post this not because (a) it is a Hot Nasties tune, made famous by the Palma Violets (b) or because the Hot Nasties are reuniting in Calgary this year…
Fidlar 1, Pixies 0
We went to that cramped, drafty old barn Massey Hall last night. We were mainly there for Fidlar, but also to see if the Pixies had decided to have a…
Our first duty as a society should be to our children
Olivia Chow said that, and she’s right, of course. And, by the by, this photo is amazing. Can you picture Rob Ford doing something like this? I sure can’t. More…
My future zombie apocalypse home
I’ve posted about my future zombie-era digs previously, but I did not have as many pictures to show you about how truly zombie-proof it is. Here you go. There is,…

I’d like to see Steve Paikin explain this crap to my daughter
She wouldn’t buy it, either, but it sure would be interesting. Oh, and why am I not a Paikin fan, you ask? Well, a few years back he invited a…

One of the greatest bands on Earth at the present time
Fidlar. They’re opening for the Pixies (sigh) at Massey Hall (barf) tonight. The Pixies make me sigh because they’re been phoning it in since reuniting after saying they’d never, ever…
I am male, hear me roar. Or, not.
Interesting survey over on J-Source about gender, age and whatnot of Canadian newspaper columnists. I was one of the ones who responded to their survey, here. Their data sheet is…
