The spacecraft was a long way from home.
I thought it would be a good idea, just after Saturn, to have them take one last glance homeward. From Saturn, the Earth would appear too small for Voyager to make out any detail. Our planet would be just a point [...]
So we went to Thrill the World Vancouver 2009 at Yaletown’s Roundhouse this evening:
And scariest of all…
After witnessing dozens of people wiping handkerchiefs, staggeringly cheesy dimestore trinkets and, I do believe, their panties on The Stone of Unction in the Church of the Holy Sepulcher in Jerusalem, I can’t help but totally love the latest from the Hebrew Badgirl:

Rugby star — and TTNO fan-fave — Ben Cohen strips for Attitude mag and says this about his physique:
I don’t think I’ve got a good body. And that’s not cause I want you to say I have. I don’t look in the mirror and go: ‘Fucking hell Benny, good body.’ I look at it and [...]
Brilliant work from Funny or Die:
Protect Insurance Companies PSA from Will Ferrell

You have no. Idea.

Thanx to MikeP…
Short week, lots of work done, busted my Craigslist cherry (sold a TV and a Betamax — oh, yeah!) and my Kijiji cherry (sold my old bike), hung out with the inimitable J.D.:
With J.D. (7 September 2009)
…bought an awesome new citybike, heard the seven trumpets:
The Seven Trumpets
…discovered that in Space, no one can [...]
So we’re off to Israel in a month and planning’s in full swing, so I decided to share some videos we’ve been watching while researching. We’ll (of course) be using Sheepy’s invaluable posts on Israel and Israeli culture to inform our itinerary, and the abundant assistance we’re receiving from friends of the faith who’ve made [...]
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 [...]
It’s no secret I’m a huge fan of The Dandy Warhols but it may not be widely known that The Beatles’ “Blackbird” is one of my very favourite songs. As it turns out, in the title track to The Dandys’ Welcome to the Monkey House, they sing
Wire is coming back again
Elastica got sued by them
When [...]
Match the adjective with the noun:

Don’t get me wrong, I love me some over-the-top Alan Ball zaniness, but the scene above, between Bill and The Queen, was one serious thespian trainwreck.
Not again, right?

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!

Oh, 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):

A note about the images… flickr’s being hardass about the images hosted on their servers, which is their right, so in an effort to ease their concerns, I’m moving the ones they consider contentious to another server. That’ll mean there’ll be quite a few broken images until the move is complete. My apologies for the inconvenience.
