Canada Same Sex Bill Passes - Yeah! Canada..
What a fuckin' concept. The freedom to be married to the person you love. Who would of thought? I still can't believe in 2005, this is even an issue. Hopefully the same sex debate can now be put to bed. And as a country we can sleep soundly tonight. We know our elected leaders support the Canadian ideal of personal rights and freedoms.
PS, America, it's time to follow our lead. Show the world that America still means freedom.
A quote for you "The land of the free?, Whoever told you that is your enemy"

1)If Somebody can say it better then, rip them off and then link to their site.
I'm not sure what to say about this link other then, Uhh? I know SG is out there thinking "Pros' a huge dick, and he needs to stop posting about Jessica Simpson on his blog, he obviously has some sort of Jessica fantasy". Well. No, I don't think think so.
I'm not sure what to think of this video other then; "Fit For the Strip Club." I know one thing, I'd be having a talk with my fictional teenage daughter concerning Jessica's overtly sexualized imagery.
PopText: Jessica Simpson ft. Willie Nelson - These Boots Are Made For Walking (video stream): "A video so exploitative, Jess has obviously been working long and hard at Cheap Stripper Academy to learn that thrust and swing action (“Daddy, daddy! Look at what I learned today' disturbing mental imagery alert!). The pink bikini scenes alone need to be worshipped as the pinnacle of incongruous, pointless masturbation-fantasy sequencing!"

Stacey, I don't know where your black lipstick is. I swear I didn't borrow it.
Lots of cool Mp3's. Unfortunally, I'm the kid with the baseball cap, feeling a little out of place, taking a pee beside two dudes sharing black lipstick.
Kick & Go: Bela Lugosi's Dead....: "you may see some guys sharing a tube of black lipstick at the urinal".

Go figure, He's from Western!..
Damn the Western engineering types. I know it was you bastards that were hitting on my girlfriends in the late 90s.. But I never realized you guys were actually SMART!? Being a college kid, I was allays jealous of university brats, the living away from home, the party-party attitude. However, us college kids, our retort was always "we have the hands on skills to get the job done". I guess all that Beer Drinking and pot smoking actually did pay off. I'm embarrassed that I didn't think of this. However, I would like to geek it up. Perhaps a web-based control module? Control Via Mythtv?
Anyways, props to this dude. He gets my geek of the week award. In addition, he gets an extra star beside his name for the quote:
"I realize small air conditioners are quite cheap. But then you don't get to build anything!"
Amen to that, My geek brother.

Rock'n'Roll Saturday with the National
I've heard the song "Abel" a of times on KEXP and WOXY. I hear a strong hint of Frank Black. However listening to the rest of the KEXP Live performance, it seems like there is much more Ian Curtis then Frank Black.
I'm going to lump the National into the same Joy Division loving genre as Interpol. To my ears, that's not such a bad thing.

I (heart) Spirit of the West
Can you tell tonight, that I'm suppose to be packing and cleaning my place instead of geeking out? Can you tell that I'm avoiding do the dishes?? Oh, procrastination..
Some music and songs just stick with me throughout my life. Poltical is one of the songs that hits me in the right spot. Perhaps it's because of the songs universallyrics, or it's snappy Celtic pop melody's.. Whatever it is, whenever it comes up on my playlist, I crank it and dance around like a stupid college kid.
POLITICAL Lyrics - SPIRIT OF THE WEST: "I was tired of being put right down by myself for not being what you thought you had found pulled hard in two directions by a desire to learn and my old affections when I tried to share my world with you you could not seem to tolerate the people i had grown to love they shrank under your scrutiny, became the ones you'd hate why did everything, every little thing every little thing with you and me have to be so political? I was feeling a little underwhelming about hanging around with you and feeling over cautious every word, every little look, every little sign every little phrase put me deeper in your doghouse you'd let me out to run across your world I ran into a wall you told me I built you then you'd reel me in, ream me out, pick me up push me out again -and then repeat it - chorus - too busy tripping on my tongue to try and stand my ground I can still see myself crying in your lap asking you are you happy with the man you have found? I'm grateful for what you did for me I can see things now I never would have seen today I thought about what could have been but could never be for you and me because everything, every little thing every little thing with you and me had to be so political"

I (heart) the 90's
Read the article for yourself. After a quick scan of the tracklisting.. I see Jump by Kris Kross and Walk by Pantera on the same disc. Above the 90's trends of grunge, 'euro, boybands, gansta rap and NU Metal and numerous others, retrospectively I think you can look at the fragmenting of pop music as the biggest trend of the 90s. The kid who was listening to Kriss Kross probably swiped his brothers Pantera tape and his dads Johnny Cash, started up a rock band and is now making music being played on ipods everywhere.

Yes, I don't cut my own grass
Yes, I have no idea how to cut grass.
But it's mine, and it's a John Deere.
I wonder if I'll be more widely accepted in Abbotsford now?

The Canadian Legal System Can Work
Well, some days I worry about the legal system giving in to political pressure, however, I think in this case, if it did, it did for a good reason.
I don't want to hype or critique the case anymore then necessary, but as a society, do we really want to let any former killer of Homolkas nature, have a relationship with another criminal? Especially one that killed his girlfriend? The only logical reason I can think that a pair of murders should have any sort of relationship or friendship together, is perhaps a support group for when they are re-introduced to society to support the challenges that they face.
That being said, as with most right-wing Canadians, and growing up in Burlington, I'd personally like to see Holmoka spend the rest of her life in a jail cell, a very small jail cell, one that doesn't see the light of day. So perhaps she'll violate her release conditions and end up back there.

CBC RADIO 3 LAUNCHES PODCAST
Well, they are a little late to jump on the bandwagon (Podcasting is no longer a bandwagon, it's more like a bus fleet), However I have been waiting for this for awhile. Unfortunally it's not the entire CBC radio 3 broadcast, however, it is a step in the right direction.
Sometime soon, I'll post on how you can use streamripper, and the cron daemon or task scheduler (For Windows) to create your own podcasts of cbcradio3 (Or something like it).
In addition, I'll post my experiences on getting Mythstream up and running for use with Podcasts.
