Herbert’s capacious massive schlong

You know, if you were to scan the covers of women’s magazines, you’d think the only things we care about are our weight, celebrities, celebrities’ weight and decorating. And if you were to scan my inbox, you’d think the only thing men care about is the size of their penis.

Say you were in the market […]

In the zone

Okay this is one of those rare things that’s too personal to blog about but too special not to blog about. So I’m going to skip all the personal details and just tell you the bottom line: Me and my Dad are going to run the 10k together on National Capital Race Weekend at the […]

New Swap Box on the Block

If you haven’t been reading the comments in the Fall and Rise of the Swap Box post, you’ve missed some big news. With Gilles’ help in the googling department, the Swap Box artist was identified (his name is Elmaks), and he turned out to also be our beloved Mirror Art artist. He even visited and […]

Brain Drain

I had my annual checkup yesterday.

I had one thing that I wanted to ask my doctor about, and that was my failing memory. I used to have an excellent memory. I didn’t have to write anything down. I had hundreds of phone numbers stored in my brain. I still remember irrelevant details from back […]

Thank you to Andrea over at No More Decorators for the meme tag, and I apologize for the long delay in getting to it.

Seven Random Facts About Me.

1. My elbows are defective so I can’t completely straighten my arms. And I have an odd bony bump on the top of each foot. My […]

The fall and rise of the Swap Box

The other day, when the Somerset House (aka The Ritz Hotel, back in the day) suffered an internal collapse, I immediately checked to make sure the Swap Box – mounted on an outside wall – was intact. It was.

On Monday, however, the Swap Box was lying on the sidewalk. Somebody had wrenched it from the […]

Catch-up

No time to blog tonight, just time to touch on a whole whack of things that are coming up on the blogging agenda.

I’ve been up to my elbows in damage control because Coyote and Em managed to piss off the mommy bloggers in the baby buggy post. Aggie, Julia and J didn’t help matters much, […]

Things that made me go wow

I’ve gathered a little collection of oddities from around the web for you this week.

1) This first one is an optical illusion right-brain-left-brain test. Is the lovely lady spinning clockwise or counter-clockwise?

If you see her spinning clockwise, then your creative right brain is dominant. If you see her spinning counter-clockwise, then your logical left brain […]

Swap Box survives building collapse

As you’ve probably already heard, the building upon which the Swap Box is mounted suffered a partial collapse yesterday!

Fortunately it was an interior collapse, and the Swap Box is okay. It’s cordoned off so nobody can get at it anymore, but it’s still there and it’s still okay.

The last thing I put in […]

Stefan Thompson, tonight at the Wurm Gallery

WHEN: Tonight (Friday October 19, 2007) at 7:30
WHERE: Wurm Gallery (Invisible Cinema), 319 Lisgar at Bank
WHO/WHAT: Stefan Thompson
WHY: The universe suggested I help publicize this.

I took a card out of the Swap Box today because I loved the pencil-drawn picture on it. In its place I left some coloured paper clips and a binder clip. […]
