I love HBO

When I was a little kid we had a cable descrambler at home (stealing cable back then was okay like smoking and listening to Kenny Loggins) and we would get HBO which as any Canadian knows is amazing seeing as we still don’t have it to this day…Anyways, I loved HBO back then for shows [...]

Chad Vader

The end of Yacht Rock on Channel101.com was met with a flood of emotion but I think I’ve rebounded after finding Vader…Chad Vader. The less ambitious younger brother of Darth makes his money as the shift manager at a local groceria despite the fact that he crashed his bicycle into a raveen and then rolled [...]

Flight001 will give you a hankering for more air travel…

I was watching ‘Catch Me if You Can’ again the other night with a friend and we were talking about how great the opening credits were, 50’s style line drawings with a distinct travel motif that reminds you of the Theme building at LAX. Travel item retail shop Flight001 has recreated that look and given [...]

New P-Rod Nike SB commercial!!

Nike’s investment in Paul Rodriguez is no secret within the skateboarding community but as of yet he hasn’t seen any mainstream TV spots…until now. Nike Skateboarding are running the TV spot entitled ‘Chalk’ on ESPN during the X-Games and I have to say Nike doesn’t disappoint–as per usual. I’m assuming this [...]

"The growing phenomenon of internet"….

Well, 15 years ago today the World Wide Web was released onto a bulletin board service by Tim Berners-Lee…I can still remember hearing about files been sent between a couple of friends back in 1992 and it just blowing my mind. Some might think it’s sad to not be able to imagine a world without [...]

Apple WWDC ‘06 this week–be aware!

Just a little reminder to all the macophites and tech-geeks out there that Apple’s Worldwide Developers Conference begins August 7 at 10am PST and runs until the 11th…Why am I warning you? Well, because Mr. Jobs is sure to have something new up his sleeve. Us Mac users (I love saying that now) are getting [...]

From a star to the a**hole you are…

They say that we were all once part of a star, well at least that’s what Ethan Hawke told me in Gattaca, I trust him. So the first 4.5 billion years were a bit hazy for mankind but the wonderfully interesting people at National Geographic led by population geneticist Dr. Spencer Wells have decided to [...]

GPS for your photos!

I think this could make for a really cool way to catalogue your photos. Sony has developed the GPS-CS1 which clips onto your Sony camera and syncs the timestamp of any given photo with the global positioning system’s location when you connect both to a PC. This in turn will either stamp your prints with [...]

All good things rot your teeth…

Came across this block of bangers via C to the J L and of course had to download it cuz well…it was free. Socially conscious hip-hop just like the good ‘ol high school days. With that Living Legends/Quannum type sound on lock, LA’s Free Speech and producer Ro Blvd. have created a great EP with [...]

The Gnotorious Gnarls Biggie

I heard this last week via Josh Spear and didn’t feel up to posting that day so it kinda fell by the wayside but I’m listening to this Gnarls Barkley Biggie Smalls mash up right now and I can’t in good conscience leave those who missed it in the dark any longer. They’ve repeatedly been [...]

The British can’t boil an egg

Okay, I haven’t boiled an egg for a long time so I’d probably screw it up too. Soft boiled? Hard boiled? How much time? Who knows? Well, the British Egg Information Service or BEIS as I like to call them has taken it onto themselves to release the first eggs with heat activated ink on [...]
