Of all the sites on the internet, this is one.
I got some pretty sad news yesterday. I never have met this man, but I know he’s been involved in the GDB family for years. I have written about the puppy truck before, when it had its accident and when they built a new one. Basically the puppy truck drives around dropping off puppies to …

Edit: Here’s his obituary. Search for his name…that’s the easiest way to find it. I have to say this because I can’t stop spluttering about it. I looked at my email, and saw one sent to a list I’m on and it was simply entitled “Robert Pearson.” I was going to gloss over it, but …
One of my favourite songs as a teenager. Still love it. That Scott Weiland died young is no surprise. If I had a celebrity death pool, he’d have been on my list for sure. But expecting something to happen doesn’t make that thing suck any less when it does. He was such a talented guy …
I just read that Billy Joe Royal, who sang the song Down in the Boondocks, died last month. He was 73. He died in his sleep, seemingly catching everyone by surprise since he still appeared to be in good health and was still touring, having performed as recently as two weeks before his death. I …
Wow, I’m full of downers tonight. I think we all have people in our lives that we never imagine not being there. They just…are part of your life, life wouldn’t be the same without them. There are people like your grandparents and parents. You know, logically, that eventually we all are going to die, but …
This is long, long, long long overdue, but better late than never. Back in August, I heard that Jim Kitchen, the one who wrote all those Kitchensinc games, had died. I couldn’t believe it, but it was true. You can even listen to it if you don’t believe me. Jim Kitchen wrote some pretty amazing …
Well, this is some unexpected and crappy news. ‘FAT’ FRANK IADEVIA, JERSEY ALL PRO WRESTLING PROMOTER, PASSES AWAY From what I’ve been reading, this took a lot of folks by surprise. If he was sick, it doesn’t seem like many people knew. I always enjoyed JAPW whenever I’d watch it. Some of the shows felt …
WWE Rowdy Roddy Piper tribute. Somehow it’s been nearly 2 weeks already, but I’m still having trouble believing that Rowdy Roddy Piper is really gone. Man, what a shitty couple of months this has been for wrestling and my childhood. When I first started watching, I had 2 favourite wrestlers. One of them was Hulk …
Remember last year when I wrote about Hitchbot? For a while, Hitchbot did really well, going all the way across Canada, Germany and the Netherlands, and I was impressed. Maybe we humans aren’t such assholes. … Then it went to the states, and…someone ended its journey rather violently. Someone ripped off its arms and removed …
I just read about the death of one of those largely unfamiliar people who should probably be a household name. His name is Roger Mayer and without him, TV, movies, the internet and I’d even suggest our understanding of history to an extent would be a lot different than it is and not in a …
