I never log into my hotmail account anymore, not even through MSN messenger (after getting gmail 3 years ago, really). Since getting a Mac I just use Adium as my chat client at home and at work I log in through web-based Meebo. Apparently it’s been a while since I actually checked my hotmail email […]

As an added incentive for pledging my Blogathon efforts for the Surrey Food Bank from Saturday to Sunday, I decided to give away some tickets to the Vancouver Canadians game on August 4th (Mexico Night!) Watch the YouTube video below to see whose name was picked from the hat. Thanks again everyone! *Also, you can […]

This weekend has turned out to be entirely consumed by blogging. On Friday night we had some pre-blogstock action at Steamworks and due to prior commitments starting early yesterday morning, I missed out on meeting other local bloggers such as: rilah, Pat Zaph, Carmen, Chad, Danielle, JaG, nome, Jennifer, and Foxxy (whom we met Wednesday), […]

My readers are amazing, seriously you guys are awesome. Over the last 24 hours I have: … had guest posts by J.J., Keira, Alanah, Isabella, Duane and John … received 59 comments on 49 blog posts (archived under ‘Blogathon‘) … blogged about hockey, gum and bunnies. … been linked from dozens of sites in support […]

This is it – one more to go after this! Just reading the “morning” news headlines and since I pretty much covered the fireworks and some of the post-firework hoopla in the podcast, here’s the ‘official’ word. It was also another busy night for Vancouver Police. Constable Howard Chow says there were over 430 liquor […]

No, actually blogging is NOT on Tourism Vancouver’s 100 Days of Summer fun guide, although it should be – I’m having a BLAST! Okay, well I don’t have enough energy for full “blast” status right now… how about a hoot? Yes, I’m having a hoot. July 30 – Cypress – Picnic in Cypress Provincial Park […]

I’m just scooping this right from John’s blog because he played it a little while ago and I can’t get it out of my head. It’s educational. Very educational. In case you’re unfamiliar with the band, They Might be Giants, you may recognize their song stylings from Tiny Toon Adventures‘ “Particle Man” and “Istanbul (not […]

Alanah sent this over to me. I’ve seen a couple makeup transformations before, including the Dove Campaign for Real Beauty mini-movie but this one’s just fun AND it comes with an animated .gif! It’s time for the big reveal for our unretouched cover-image contest, and, well, our winner is the July cover of Redbook, on […]

iChat with Duane: duane: corinna gave me a big hug when I left last night duane: I like hugs duane: you and john don’t hug me rebecca: im not a huge hugger… it just reminds me of high school girls that are fake and would hug their friends with 1 arm at lunch.. and after […]

Not like I would forget but if you’re just logging onto the blog for the first time and wonder why I have over 40 posts so far over the last 24 hours… yeah I’m not just an eager blogger. The point to this entire day and night of madness is to get pledges. Like a […]
