I’m just saying — bring winter already if we’re going to have such shitty weather in August. I’ve had enough of this Arctic August. This entire summer has been very disappointing weather wise. Bring forth the winter so at least I don’t feel like I’m being ripped off when I step outside with just a tshirt mid August.

As much as I was hesitant — looking back I’m glad I got a chance to visit the Discovery cove while I was in Orlando several years ago… Read the rest of this entry »

I think I’ve finally recovered from the weekend. Yes it was a lot of fun, but also quite tiring considering I’ve just managed to regain my strength from being bedridden for a few days….

There were a lot of events in Toronto. Taste of the Danforth (A festival celebrating the multiculturalism of a neighborhood in Toronto highlighted by food, music and corporate sponsorship), the Hot & Spicy Food festival, and the Beer Festival. I set out a list and managed to get everything done.

Instead of duplicating the entry, I’ll just point you to the write-up on my other pet project regarding the weekend activities.

The beer fest was fun, but under the Red Stripe tent it was simply awesome. Considering it rained the entire day, everyone that managed to find the Red Stripe tent were too busy partying and drinking to give a shit. There was a great vibe because of great music and energetic staff. Albert and his gang also kept serving some delicious Jamaican treats which sealed the deal. Everyone that I spoke to said it was easily the most enjoyable part of the festival.

The velvet revolver show was incredible. It was a trip down memory lane seeing Alice in Chains perform and then the re-grouping of GNR and STP. These guys are one of the biggest rock bands out there right now in terms of experience and history, and I don’t know how Scott can sound so incredible live after all the years of drugs and alcohol. Slash is my guitar hero, seeing him live again was a memorable experience.

Ahh, It’s been a long long time since we crossed paths. I miss your perpetual rhythm and insomniac qualities. Let’s re-unite soon, I forget the way you dance.. Read the rest of this entry »

Poor guy never saw it coming. But he had to stand guard against his master all weekend as she showcased her Art at the Art Expo a few weeks ago. It poured, he shivered, but shook it off and stood there watching the crowd like a hawk.
