For the longest time, I’ve been wondering if Canada was ever going to get Spotify. It felt like it was this huge deal everywhere else, but for one reason or another (dealing with regulatory and industry types I suspect), not here. That is, until today. Spotify is pleased to announce that it is officially live …

Three New Rancid Songs
These are the first 3 tracks from their new album, “Honor Is All We Know”, which because I’m so far out of the loop on the world of pretty much every fucking thing these days, I had know idea was coming out until right now. On first listen, I like these songs. They all pretty …
Climbing For A Cause
Before I turn things over to Gill and let her tell you about the event she took part in yesterday, I must say that the term differently abled needs to be taken out behind the barn and done away with. It’s not quite as high up there on the shit I hate list as handicapable, …
Cactus Jack’s WWF Debut
Scott’s Blog of Doom is a fine place to spend hours watching old wrestling matches. I was doing some of that yesterday since I wasn’t awake enough to do much else and I ran across this from 1997. I distinctly remembered 1997 me loving this, so I gave it a look for the first time …
99 Red Balloons, As Played On Actual Red Balloons
It’s tempting to call shenanigans on this because how the hell do you do all of that with 4 red balloons and some multitrack recording, but I’m not going to do that. 99 Red Balloons – played with red balloons. FAQ: 1. How many balloons did you use? Four. 2. How long did it take? …

Your Policies Are Garbage. Why Don’t You Join Them
There are plenty of aspects of foreign culture that can feel free to merrily stay right where they are. But this thing where an angry mob comes together to dump one of its country’s shitty politicians into a dumpster? Canada ought to think about importing that one. The victim, such as he is, is Vitaly …

You’re Supposed To Take Him To The Hospital, Not Put Him In It
Dear Philip Ubdegrove: It doesn’t matter who takes the baby to the hospital. The important thing is that he gets there. Mom is surely just as qualified to deal with issues of bleeding junk as you are. You don’t have to own one to know it needs a mechanic, as they say. And by they …

I Can’t Stop Laughing At This New Paul And Storm Song
Paul and Storm have a new album out. I have it, but haven’t had time to sit down and listen to it yet. But if Right Here with You is the sort of thing I’m in for, I’m going to have fun when I do. Three times. Still funny.
So You’re Saying I’m Not Supposed To Do The Ice Bucket Challenge And Then Donate Myself To The County Jail? Uh-oh
You had to know this would be happening sooner or later. Cops Arrest Wanted Ex-Con After He Posts “Ice Bucket Challenge” Video To Facebook A convicted felon being sought for violating parole was arrested after he posted an “Ice Bucket Challenge” video to Facebook, where it was spotted by a tipster who alerted Nebraska cops …
Kids React To The NES
A while ago, kids reacted to a Game Boy. So it only makes sense that now they’re reacting to the old Nintendo Entertainment System. The parts where they start cursing at it when the game won’t start or when it looks like they’re about to die reminded me a bit of the way my friends …
