On all of the Blue Jays radio broadcasts they’ve been plugging this Vtech Bullpen Hotline contest where you can win a VTECH Dect 6.0 Model DS6321-2 dual-handset cordless phone every time the team playing against the Jays goes to their bullpen.

I had something happen to me last night that made me realize just how far we’ve come in the technology department. I was going to meet up with my French group for a movie. After the banks were closed, I suddenly realized goddamn it, the theatre doesn’t do debit! So, I thought “No worries, I’ll …

Boy oh boy do I have a monstrosity for you! Remember how we said our Canada Day audio would never be heard by the world? Well, that still holds, so we decided to try again. And we created something even longer and crazier than that one! We didn’t mean to, honest. We just sat down …
Oh boy. Here comes Spike, the next generation! A company called Anybots has designed QB, a robot that you control remotely, that can sub in for you at the office! Seriously.
