I’ve been on the verge of buying a new computer for a couple months now, but I keep stalling because I really haven’t been keeping up with the latest advances in computing. My current computer is an AMD Athlon XP 1.4, which has served me well, and honestly still works fine for the most part. [...]
I recorded a new Muzak For Cybernetics Mixtape over the weekend, which is a music podcast I’ve been doing on a pseudo-monthly basis, sometimes with co-hosts, sometimes without. It’s kind of a fun way to get back to what we used to do on our old radio show on the Brock University radio station — [...]
I’ve been kind of neglectful in the video game department as of late; the spring weather combined with required home improvements have kept me away from most of my video game consoles and I can’t really say I’m all that torn up about it. I picked up God of War 2 last month and was [...]

Today I was getting gas at Esso when a guy pulled up beside me and said, “Psst… hey buddy! Wanna buy some kick ass speakers? You know, for your place? I’ll give you a real good deal.” This was at lunch time and the gas station was packed. It kind of caught me off guard, [...]
The other day there were a bunch of people over and we all started talking about American Gladiators and how it was basically the greatest TV show of all time. Wesley “2 Scoops” Berry was my hero, and boy I hated that pretty boy Nitro. While it defies human logic that no one has revived [...]
