17/05/2005: Scotch
An article in which your author talks a little about
climbing into volcanos, meets a world famous Canadian
author and gets to do a little swimming on a Pacific Island
before realizing that his favourite knife is gone
forever--wholly on account of his lunkheaded stupidity
when it comes to airport security.
17/07/2005: Apprentice to a Pirate
...is about, basically, the reasons I feel file
sharing is not a bad thing and a callfor a more
collective kind of evil theiving piracy. I wrote
this off the cuff after I'd been up22 hours so
it's a little shorter then usual...but this is no
doubt a good thing to those who complain
about how I go on.
01/05/2005: The Hot Dog Biz
An article in which your author describes the problems
he has had with the transvestite hookers about his
neighbourhood, with the complications one might have
trying to operate a hot dog cart on the streets of the city
and also the reasons that a certain Colombian girl he
knows should become a Nobel Prize winner.
29/04/2005: The Last Magic Show
An article that asks the age old question: why is M.
Night Shamalayanalansa such a total asswipe? Also,
there is some discussion about whether or not it it worth
it to watch a DVD's special features.
07/02/2005: The Republic of Adam
Here the author adds a Platonic spin to the idea of setting
up a new apartment, although the subtext is that his last
place was a pigsty and he needed the state to help him
keep it clean. The article also talks about Andrea's
differing theories on cleaning up and lastly there is some
discussion of the proper way to throw a party and who
ought to be welcome at one.
26/01/2005: The Leafs
An article that starts out being about why it is not worth
it to be a Leafs fan, but then moves into the idea that the
Leafs keep ticket prices high for the purposes of
population control. In the end the article turns into a rant
about the reasons that biological determinism has nothing
to do with the way the two sexes shop and suggests that
we are too married to tired paradigms about reality.
20/01/2005: Babylon too Rough
An article that is about the world dominance of Chinese
food and the lessons that the USA could learn in Iraq
while they drive their tanks over the paving stones of
ancient Babylon and some of the problems with having
kidney stones in New York City.
10/04/2005: Jesus Loves Baby Seals
An article that begins as a kind of neat comparason
between the plight of the harp seal and that of the
modern Christian, but which quickly degenates into
useless raving about how bad the Church is and also uses
the rant as a cheap excuse to show graphic photos of
clubbed seals. Not worth reading.
