Hello Kitty playing cards made of Solid Gold; because thats how we roll here in the Otaku-hood dawg. Word!
Even with the $4,900 price tag I’m sure these card sets will fly off the store shelves.

If I ever own a large building like this I’d love to do something similar. Right after I buy a private jet and solid gold rocket car.

Right. Am I forgetting anything?
Thanks to the new iPod Nano commercial I have “1234″ by Feist stuck in my head
Not that I am complaining; it is a great little song to have playing in the back of your mind all day. I am just glad I found the video so I can learn the lyrics to the rest of the song.
Stop buying stuff at The Kitchen Table. Yes it is the most convenient source of fresh fruits near your office, but you pay for that convenience. Four dollars for a yogurt cup with granola and fruit?! That’s Madness!
Don’t be lazy in the morning and take some time to pack more fruit into your lunch.
With my roommate getting hitched it is no surprise that he would move into his wife’s place. This left your favourite Self-Proclaimed Rock Star* by himself in a great apartment with a rent he just couldn’t afford alone. What to do?
I decided against getting a new roommate. I wasn’t that keen on sharing my space with a stranger and I also felt it was about time I started living on my own. For awhile I was tossing around the idea of buying a condominium but the timing wasn’t right. Graig understandably wanted to move out as soon as possible which left me with a tight deadline to find a new place. If I’m going to drop all my savings on one big purchase I’d rather have more than a couple of months to make my decision.
In the end I made up my mind on moving out of my current abode and finding a smaller apartment for myself. It made sense given the time line and the circumstances. For the past few weeks I have been on the hunt: scouring ViewIt.ca and MyHood.ca for listings, making calls to rental offices and superintendents, visiting places all over the Toronto area. The process was stressful and at times felt hopeless as well, but thankfully I had L to help and support me through it all.
And after all that hard work I am proud to say I did manage to find a new apartment to call my own. It is a good sized bachelor/studio near the Broadview and Danforth area. I admit that it is much smaller than my current place (heck my current bedroom if you want to be picky!) but I think I will be comfortable there. I won’t be able to walk to work in the morning anymore but the area is great and rent is affordable so I can’t complain.
I don’t know what makes me happier: finding a new apartment for myself or not having to go through the whole apartment search process anymore. Either way the move in date couldn’t come any sooner. I just have to remember to restrain myself and not go all Trading Spaces buck wild on the new apartment when I get there.

Thanks to YouTube I am now paranoid of using any sort of public facilities in Japan.
With pranks like this, can you blame me?
In Team Fortress 2 I am that mudder fracker you should shoot first and enough live ammo comes flying my way thank-you-very-much.
According to my stats I am a pretty decent Medic to boot. You would be surprised how much fun it is to dance in and out of fire; trying to juggle the health of 3 to 4 other players involved in a straight out gun battle.
Now if I could stop my PC from randomly crashing when I play the game, everything would be peachy.
Here are the instructions for building your very own Home Made 25mm Bolt Action Pneumatic Sniper Rifle, and here is a video of it in action.
My little Boom Stick pales in comparison … I should modify it for more punch!
Another great t-shirt design from Threadless. I hope this one makes it into production because I’d pick one up as fast as Toad digs up vegetables in Super Mario Bros. 2.
