Colossal Human Stupidity

Funny, but really not funny.. You can't have a chimp as a pet, doofus.

This operator is an idiot, poor lady is getting mauled by a Chimpanzee.  It's actually scary to listen to, but it's bizarre.

Finally, An Easy Way To Find Good Food in T.Dot

Have you ever found yourself in a Starbucks down town Toronto searching for a good place to eat with your girl?  Or maybe you're like me, before I head downtown from Markham I'm scrambling to find a good restaurant on Google which leads me to a bunch of ridiculous ad-infested websites that give me only a limited variety of restaraunts.  It's really a pain, but I've discovered this new tool that is going to save me mad time.

MealChase - Restaurant Deals is a really easy and simple tool.  I already know many of you are going to start using this in Markham, because honestly we've got no good restaurants here!

Anyways, basically you type in your location, select from a list, yes Markham is included.  It's a service centered around Toronto, but the service covers most of Canada, which is awesome.  You just choose your location and type in an intersection and it will find all the nearest restaurants, oh and you can use keywords to find more specific types of restaurants.

Here's what I tried, I love Thai food as most of you know,

Here's the results, map included as well as ratings and the distance,

Another great thing about MealChase is that it works from your iphone too, there's a link on the site so check it out.

There's also the option to create an account and add reviews as well as deals, I've noticed it's relatively new but there are still a few ratings.  Which means you can be one of the first to tag your favorite restaurants! *Cough*Salad King*Cough*

Well that's MealChase in a nutshell, again here's the link if you missed it!

Happiness is a Firecracker

The Fray just released their new album and have already reached #1 on the billboard top 200. The new album is entitled "The Fray", how creative. Perhaps they are starting fresh.

When I first heard their new single "You Found Me", I wasn't impressed enough to look into the rest of the album, but luckily my british best friend forever(not actually british just wanted to use that ridiculous Hilton allusion, she's as brilliant as a spinach sculpture) but yeah my bbff Krystle Henry showed me some of the other songs and immediately I was intrigued. I got the whole album and I've been listening to it a lot, it's an addictive sound, which is probably why they always climb to the top of the charts with their hooky pop songs.

Anyways, I'm a dedicate these songs to Perky cause she's always looking for new music and the Fray is right up her ally.

My favorite song right now is Happiness, I really like the metaphor of happiness being a firecracker, not sure if it's because I love firecrackers. Either way it's a powerful song.

Oh and I wanted to point out the album artwork too, it captured me, more because it's photography and I'm a sucker for photos.

I admire that they also released a photo book, I'm not sure how good it is, but I love it when one art form incorporates others. I was talking about snowboarding today in English class, and I noticed that one reason why I absolutely love it is because, it incorporates a style, fashion, music, in itself there is art. The way you ride, the flow of riding. It's very zen-like as I once heard from a past manager at Coast Mountain Sports. Basically I love art that branches out into other forms of art, I love it even more when it's done well. I haven't seen the photo book by the Fray as I said, but if I do, I'll let you know what I think about it.

Anyways, here are a few songs I personally enjoy,

The Fray - Happiness

The Fray - Never Say Never

The Fray - Ungodly Hour

UPDATE: Riah made a good point, so I'm putting up two more songs.

The Fray - Enough For Now

The Fray - Absolute

and just in case you wanted this one too.. The Fray - You Found Me

WASSSSUPPPPPP!!!!

Ok, so I'm looking at a gazillion political videos today because I've got a tutorial tomorrow.  So I'm sorry that I'm rolling them out on here but I'm unearthing some awesome stuff.  Here's the comeback of a one hit wonder Budweiser commercial.  With a twist.

The Absolute Worst Part About George W. Bush

The worst part about George W. Bush is that we won't get to see him make an absolute fool of himself all the time. Until Palin takes over the oval office, we'll have to stick to these great moments.

Clayton McCaw/GIRLS San Fran Styles

(Zak Whittamore on the left, Clayton McCaw on the right)

If there's one thing I've learned about my friend Clayton McCaw, it's that he knows his music, he knows it better than many people I know.  He is rich with knowledge of indie bands and artists, I can remember sitting in the MDHS parking lot on a breezy summers day listening to Radiohead or The Arcade Fire, and analyzing a list of indie artists that was half-written and typed by Clayton, Emma and Fife.  A fine team to be constructing a list of musical brilliance.

I can say with brutal honesty that a large chunk of my library consists of music discovered through Clayton.  Kings of Leon, yeah he was on that way before you were all singing along with 102.1's obsession to Sex on Fire.

Besides his illustrious taste in music and the arts.  He's also talented himself, he kicks a mean bob dylan and definitely has his own style of singing, started off with a keyboard and just picked up a guitar and started playing.  He collaborated well with another friend of mine, a phenomenal drummer and all 'round artist, Zak Whittamore.  Together they made a musical team that could've taken on the Wall, solo.

He gave me another artist to be on the watch for, so I must share it with you, GIRLS is a tropical/gothic/thrash group from San Fran. California.  They've got a unique sound and for me it really paints a picture of McCaw chilling in his dorm in Kingston whaling away on his guitar serenading all the ladies.

I've heard McCaw will be in the studio in a couple of weeks so when there's some tunage recorded, I will do my best to send it to the masses, including you.

Yeah it's the song from the video, I'm still addicted to it, that's a 7 inch vinyl I ordered from the U.K. a little while back.

Here it is for all you numpties(cough, kirsten) who claim you couldn't get it.

Life in Technicolor II - Coldplay

Enjoy.

Oh and, initial credit for first showing me the song goes to Riah Sethna, her taste in music is aight.
