Toronto band Radius and Helena released their album, ‘Precious Metals’ with a sold-out show at Massey Hall’s Centuries Lounge. The night was made special with a unique lineup of supporting acts, starting with arpeggio dungeon master, Discordant Euphony.

After being inspired by this portrait of Dubya, I thought I would do a literal rendition of how I think Owen Wilson’s face is basically having sex with itself. Cheer up, Owen; you’re uniquely handsome and, after all, love is staring you in the face.

Still choosing the greater of two evils, Morrissey announces his Fall Tour Dates. Implicit in the itinerary is his preference for a country whose government has instigated war, okayed torture, rape, civilian deaths, of tens of thousands of Iraqis – women, children and men – over one that has said ‘no’ to that [...]

And to celebrate, I’m posting pics and a vid of America’s favourite feel-good kitty, Winston, by way of FourFour.
He’s the one who broke the news about Aquafina being tap water:

Reclaiming bits of hotness

I used to have a big crush on Jude Law, but his dalliances with bubble-heads like Sienna Miller crushed any butterflies that dared to dance in my stomach when Jude was on the screen. Not sure whether this chick’s a bubble-head too, but she’s ‘out there’ enough to bring back some of the mysterious hotness [...]

I can read: Lunar Park by Bret Easton Ellis
Posted in Admiration Station, Books on June 6, 2007 | 2 Comments »
Just devoured Bret Easton Ellis’ latest novel, Lunar Park. I am a huge fan of Ellis’ stories and post-postmodern writing style. His ability to write a character who is so believably arrogant AND self-effacing at the same time is awe-some along with the fact that he can weave in so much pop-culture without [...]
