Though I think religion is total horseshit, I deeply respect the religious experience. By that I mean that we humans have a peculiar physiology and psychology which can lend itself to certain perceptions which we casually describe as “religious” and, because these perceptions and experiences have yet to be scientifically studied in any significant fashion, we’re [...] September 3rd, 2009 | Categories: Awesome, Bad Behaviour, Bliss, Celebrities, Heroes, IntoxiBlogging™, Religion is Bad |
 2 commentsNot again, right? Video: The Arcade Fire “No Cars Go” Next to “Roam”, this is probably my fave B-52′s song*. Don’t think the grocers’ apostrophe doesn’t drive me nuts — they fixed it last year, with the release of Funplex — but self-identification is to be respected. The literal representation of the instruments cracks me up and, Cindy, you ARE my goddess! Video: B-52′s “Legal [...] August 29th, 2009 | Categories: 3 Kinds of Gay, Awesome, Bad Behaviour, Bliss, Celebrities, IntoxiBlogging™, This Hear |
4 commentsOh, the abundant opportunities inherent in this post slug, to go off on flights of quadruple-entendre fancy, but, no, I’m talking about television and my neighbourhood, dear readers. About six blocks from where I sit right now is a structure appearing in the Galactica universe as both Delphi (in BSG) and Caprica City Hall (in Caprica):

3 commentsPros (3:10PM, Vancouver, 9 August 2009) There really wasn’t much discussion about it. Though Champ and I never really did The Pride Thing in Toronto — at least, not together, and not for the past few years — we didn’t need to really discuss whether (or not) we were going to take in Vancouver’s festivities . We just knew, y’know? I mean, [...] August 5th, 2009 | Categories: 3 Kinds of Gay, Actual Gay Conversations, Bad Behaviour, Bliss, Celebrities, Gymnauseam, Heroes, IntoxiBlogging™, News for Moms, Religion is Bad, Sarcasm, Stupidity, Toronto, Vancouver |
14 commentsSo, as you may have gathered, the flavour of this here blog has changed over the past several weeks, without question due to the marked improvement in the quality of my life since I moved to Vancouver. I do promise, at some point in the near future, the inevitable YYZ/YVR Comparison Post, but in the [...] August 3rd, 2009 | Categories: Awesome, Bad Behaviour, Bliss, IntoxiBlogging™, Toronto, Vancouver |
4 commentsCleve Jones is kind of a hero of mine. You might recall him from the movie Milk; he was the sassy street-hustler-turned-politico played by Emile Hirsch (the real Cleve had a microcameo, too). He’s spent a lifetime working at the forefront and behind the scenes for LGBT equality and HIV/AIDS issues, he conceived the NAMES [...] August 2nd, 2009 | Categories: Actual Gay Conversations, Awesome, Bad Behaviour, Bliss, Celebrities, Heroes, Vancouver |
4 commentsThis is what we were forced to look at while barbecuing last night. Musical accompaniment: Hybrid Remixed. Vancouver, 9:13PM, 25 July 2009
Vancouver Harbour from the Convention Centre So Timber was in town this week for work and to say it was great seeing him again would be a massive understatement. Also, he got to meet Champ (and Champ him), after hearing about each other for so many years, so it was pretty terrific [...] July 25th, 2009 | Categories: Awesome, Bad Behaviour, Bliss, Self-Pimping, Vancouver, What Time Is It? |
2 commentsCan you remember what you were doing forty years ago? I can remember what I was doing exactly forty years ago. (Full disclosure: I usually can’t remember what I did last week.) It was a day very, very much like this day in Vancouver — hot, sunny — except it was in Winnipeg, and therefore much [...] July 20th, 2009 | Categories: Awesome, Bliss, Heroes, Want, War on Science, What Time Is It? |

12 commentsAs nostalgically fun as it was to see a chubbier, balder and 25-years-older Thomas Dolby performing “The Flat Earth” in yesterday’s post, I must cop to a special adoration for his “Windpower” (also from The Golden Age of Wireless), with its Gary-Numan’s-synths-meet-Peter-Gabriel’s-gated-reverb-drums and New Romantic lyrical idealism. I wish this YouTube clip could convey the scienterrific [...] Twenty-five years after its release, Thomas Dolby’s The Flat Earth is still as haunting (and remarkable) as ever. I’ve been listening to all of his back-catalogue for a few days now and it’s as fresh as the first time I heard it, so long ago. From a live performance in Chicago, 2006: Video: Thomas Dolby [...] Yikes. July 6th, 2009 | Categories: Bad Behaviour, Bliss, Self-Pimping, What Time Is It?, WTF? |
