As a Canadian, it is in my genome, the very blood in my veins, to go ga ga over donuts. Or doughnuts, as we often spell. This pretty much means that I go to Tim Hortons (aka. the late—bless his soul—hockey king of donuts) more often than is financially responsible, and eat more donuts than [...]

Book Cover – Japanese Foodie Matador
Inspired by the blog Awful Library Books, I thought I would post about an awful book cover that I found at the library where I work. Part of my job is to “rove,” which is another way of saying “walk around the floor and see if anyone needs any help.” Usually when I do this, [...]

hitRECord with RegularJOE
RegularJOE, a.k.a Joseph Gordon-Levitt, a.k.a Tommy from 3rd Rock From the Sun has what will probably become one of my favourite websites, www.hitrecord.org. Remember a little while back when I was talking about that cool Johnny Cash video that I saw on AUX TV that turned out to be this huge collaborative effort created over [...]

Brawl-Fest 2011: Pens vs. Isles
I know this is a little dated, but I hadn’t had a chance to watch this video until today. On February 11th, the Pittsburgh Penguins and the New York Islanders played one another in New York, a game that fans speculated would be a fight-happy one due to events that occurred in a previous game, [...]

Card-making Craftiness
Much to my dismay, I’ve never really been an artsy person. Well, let me be a little bit more specific with that statement. I adore art, all kinds, really. But I’ve never really had any artistic talent, so to speak. I always sucked in art class, I never could draw, and I have a limited [...]

Collaborative Cash
I came on here today to simply post a video that I saw on AUX (yes, yes, AUX again. There will be many AUX inspired posts) that I thought was cool to share. Then, I went onto YouTube to grab the video to embed, and I realized that there is much more to this video [...]

Deke-Master Armstrong
The Toronto Maple Leafs won against the Florida Panthers last night by a shootout. The winning goal was scored by Colby Armstrong, who deked, then re-deked, then deked out his own deke, all while barely moving. Gotta give props. http://video.mapleleafs.nhl.com/videocenter/console?catid=802&id=95607 Sorry, can’t embed the video since it’s not from YouTube or Google Vids (I’m just [...]
