Finally, after a few weeks of unmitigated fluff and crap, finally some good movies are coming out this week, movies that I will actually pay money for. Yay!
The other night I watched Terminator 2 for the first time. It was good.
Our kitten is coming along nicely, his name is now Felix and he is VERY hungry. As in 5am-waking-me-up-with-wailing-kitten-noises kind of thing. It’s fun! Yeah! Do you sense the sarcasm?
Pacific MallYesterday we went to Pacific Mall in Markham, which is apparently the largest Chinese indoor mall in North America. It is quite a place to go, especially for an ignorant white man like me. I’d never been, as it was built while I was in Guelph doing my degree. There is a ton of stuff there, but it got somewhat repetitive after a little while. Sandy and I spotted some cool NBX wallets and stuff in the first gift store we went into, but I soon realized that virtually every gift-like store had this stuff. The food stores, on the other hand… we blew probably too much money on candy and the like. I bought a huge container of those pre-packaged jellies for $7.99. I also tried a can of Pocari Sweat, which I have been wanting to try ever since I read about tokimi’s trip to japan. It’s… interesting stuff. Also tried some real iced tea that had lychee juice added, it was excellent. If they sold that in convenience stores I’d drink it every day.
big truck gets stuckYesterday, a delivery truck got stuck just in front of work here due to the temporary insanity of the King St Streetcar Track Reconstruction. It was pretty interesting, and I took a handful of photos, which you can see here.
monkeybikeoh. my. god.
There’s this company in the UK that offers a service to drive you home in your own car after a night of drinking, in order to prevent people from drunk driving. How do they do it? Their people ride the Monkey Bike Puzzle – a 49cc 3-speed scooter that can be disassembled into four pieces to fit in the trunk of a car, without tools, in two minutes. Jesus tap-dancing CHRIST these people are smart! via boingboing
Damn you, HMV!I swear I’ve wrote an entry with that title before…
HMV doesn’t have the new Guster album yet. HMV won’t have it until July 15. Amazon.ca does have it, and will send it to me for $18.86. Hrm.
