Leaving the hovel
Posted on March 30th, 2011 – Comments Off on Leaving the hovelDang … almost forgot I had a blog and a camera! I totally blame winter for my shut-in-edness and lack of motivation. TIME FOR REVENGE!!
Smooth, baby…smooth
Posted on March 7th, 2011 – 2 CommentsGazing out the window while chatting on the phone this afternoon (i.e. trying to look busy), I spotted this guy smoothing out the concrete of the new George Brown College building next door.
I dunno what this contraption is called but the sharp, spinning, metal blades just scream fun and hijinx, don’t you think?
With a view like this…

Sugary sleepy fishes and other image problems
Posted on May 24th, 2010 – 4 CommentsDoesn’t it seem like the west end is always getting new stuff?
Like just the other day they got new pay shitters. On top of the novelty of $0.25, self-cleaning toilets, residents get the added bonus of getting to watch tourists peepee dance as they hunt for change.
On the east end alls we got now is scrub brush, mounds of dirt, and a bunch of factories.
Kinda ironic considering this section of town predates the west end. And over there they’ve got the Island Airport which Porter Airlines has nicened up considerably (so far, it seems, not abusing their monopoly), the Music Garden, not to mention the Harbourfront Centre and all the artsy shit it barfs up on the shores of Lake Ontario.
Almost deep-fried food
Posted on April 25th, 2010 – 3 CommentsYou know, I really thought that last post about letting your kids wander around alone in a city would’ve been more contentious. Apparently not. Gotta say, the TCL readership is waaaaaay more liberal than I ever could’ve imagined. Cool!
Or you’re still reading. Sorry, it was kinda long. I’ll do my best to keep this one lighter.
Nothing much to say anyway. The Music Garden is supposed to communicate through other senses.
Ultra top secret mission
Posted on March 24th, 2010 – 6 CommentsI probably looked like someone preparing for an assassination. But I had a purpose, dear reader. Yes, a master plan. A secret master plan.
That’s right, I’m afraid I’m not at liberty to discuss why I looked like I would be involved in a Bourne-like plot, but I could see how my behaviour could be construed as such.
I stood at the each location, gazing across the street to check the sightlines. Then I’d go to that location and gaze back from there. Suspicious. And, being the proud papa of a short new cut, along with my daunting shades, I probably looked the part of someone who might use those sightlines for nefarious purposes.
And I was on a mission.
Determined to hit as many of my ten destinations as I could. I managed six. Well, seven if you count the bendy CN Tower. I’m not sure if I’m counting it just yet; we’ll see which way I’m leaning later on. But I trekked the hell out of those streets. Up to the steps of Casa Loma…
…down to the most prominent building on Queen Street…
…onward to the CBC where I had a shouting match with Glenn Gould…
