GIMME AN S

I just feel like I want an s right now, even though, later on when people are reading this and give me an s I won't want it.

The White Oaks Incident

Last Thursday, me and A/V MacGuyver were picking up batteries at Radio Shack in White Oaks Mall in South end of London (Ontario). As we were leaving the mall, someone thought it was a wise ideal to steal seven leather jackets from Tip Top Tailors and go through the mall exit instead of the store's own exit. As the... well, let's call him "asshole" since it seems appropiate for the situation. As the asshole was passing me, the hangers from the jackets got caught on my bookbag, and I was practically dragged for a few until meters, until I almost rammed my face into the getaway car. Fortunately for me I got my book bag unhooked before the assholes drove away, and probably gave the clerk at tip top enough time to copy the plate and make of the car.

The whole ordeal was quite surreal.

Prior to going into the mall, A/V asked me "Why are you bringing your bag? You don't really need it." It makes me wonder if A/V has that same power as dogs have around Christmas time where the dogs are sleeping around the Christmas Tree, they wake up and leave the room, then five minutes later, the tree topples over.

Alive, but recovering the surreal

Gimme another day to write something interesting. I want to explain in detail what happened last Thursday at White Oaks Mall, and it will be worth the read.

THE FINAL iPod PICTURE SHOWDOWN

I can't do the iPod picture showdown anymore because I am running out of web space at the place where I hold all my photos.

Anyways, here's the final pic....



Yes, my iPod is looking at Chip MacWebb's iPod, knowing that he is the champion for the coming weeks, unless someone else would like to compete with him.

(stroking the chin as if he has an idea)

Wet Spots and Birds

Today, I saw a wet spot on the ground near the front of the loader tractor during corn silage. I didn't think much about it because I just got there, the calves were roaming around the the silage wagon (getting in the way) and I merely went just to take over my dad's job which really was my job. As my dad moved the tractor away from the silo he pointed out blood on the loader, right around one of the steel "hooks" he made for the fork attachment. He told me that one of the calves got its mouth around the hook, and somehow broke its jaw trying to bite at it. The wet spot in the ground was a pool of blood from the calf's mouth.

Fortunately for me, I didn't see the calf. I would have probably vomited on the spot once I saw the blood, or at least feel quite nauseated from the face of the calf. Actually, I am not that good in horrid situations. I would take it comicially or sickly. Case in point: there was a dead bird in front of one of the stairwells over at the Visual Arts Center at Western on Saturday. It was in the way of the entrance laying on the cement, probably a bit confused in the its last few seconds of its life right after it crashed into the windows. What I thought was the most logical way of removing it was kicking it away from the door. It made thud sound, not a dropping a large object thud, but more of a something heavy in a balloon thud. A.V. MacGuyver, who was with me at the time, thought it was one the more disturbing things he's seen in awhile. If he saw the calf, I am pretty sure that he would be more horrified than myself in that situation.

Then again, I am not A.V. MacGuyer...

When is Porn not Porn?

Today, I saw a porno video online that showed no sex acts or nudity.

Would you call it post-modern or existential porn, like really.

It's Stuff like this that makes me proud I am into film

I was doing my daily blog readings when I saw this on Warzine. Now, all I have to say is this is the reason why I am into film, to shoot stuff on little cameras connected to 9 volt batteries.

iPod Portrait Showdown Part III

...


I went for a "describe what you see" look for this pic.

C'mon, tell me what you see.

iPods, TVs, and Tapeheads

A couple of Messages to A.V. MacGuyver and Chip MacWebb, currently, the only contributors to the comments pages...

The iPod pic showdown will happen later today sometime after 9:30pm. Why after 9:30pm, well I am going to record something off the Satellite tonight, this is the second time I will do this. The first attempt was successful with Coaxial Cables but this recording will involve RCA Cables.

I watched Tapeheads with John Cusack and Tim Robbins and I have to say that the movie was bad, but seeing Cusack play a greasy Video Producer was totally worth the watch, along with Weird Al Yankovic kicking Cusack's ass.

Sidenote: in the coming weeks, I will posting at a second blog called The Tape Hunters with all the bizarre video finds I have made in the past few weeks.

Rockwood

Here are some photos I took at Rockwood this past weekend.

Rockwood

I would put a photo or two on here put .mac was acting a bit wonky.

The Clean up

Clean up continues on the "Spooky House". I cleared about half of the garbage on the second floor, however I cluttered up the landing because of water damage in one of the "Storage Rooms". I saw my dad's face as I put a part of the bathroom wall outside. He seems pissed but, he knows it's for the better.

Tomorrow will be cutting hay and more clean-up, but I really wish I was at school. You can't win them all.

Chip MacWebb, You're Going Down

As Chip uses the iPod as the art piece seen here, I went for more of a Photoshop bad art in a bad art gallery route.



It's a cross between pointilism and a touch of impressionist influence. It's something that would be hanging in a small town art gallery with an arts and crafts shoppe on the side.

Why? (1 of many)

I found the companion piece to MC Hammer: Hammer Time....


Yeah, I know what you are thinking.

Cleaning and Learning

This morning, house cleaning. This Afternoon, year six starts.

Fun fun.

Chip MacWebb, the ipod image #2 comes tonight.

Country Feedback

...

This is one of two horse plows that appeared at the match, however, I don't know if these horses won or not.


The Middlesex Plowing Match was yesterday. For you city folk, yes, it is as interesting as it sounds. I did get more photos of the antique tractors during the lunch hour, and some video of the tractors actually plowing, however that footage will go up at a later date. Two things that really surprised me at yesterday's shindig was the amount of people at the match (the most people I have ever saw on that lot... ever) and seeing my house from across the road from a distance. I know some of you are asking "why is that such a big deal?" Well, I never saw my house at that perspective before, sure I have seen the house across the road from my mailbox, but never halfway into the field that is in front of us. This is something I could have done years ago but never crossed my mind.

I live in Max Headroom's world, I think

I was checking out the daily blogs when I found this nugget. Cripes, I'm a country boy and I live 20 minutes into the future.

I truly think that there has to be more than this happening in the world.
