  1. WHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE! one more sleep
  2. MOBE's a disdainful snob his posts drip with the snot, which is why i never cook anything he suggests he doesn't deserve to enjoy a good hot dog
  3. you know what's really sad about ottawa? the sens mile was DEAD last night. DURING the game. everyone had already given up on their team. pffff
  4. thanks for that...i just called and though you need a 'package' to get the moving rebate, it only added 5$ to my bill and i'll save the 55$. then in a month i'll drop them.
  5. i saw tons of pollen floating around yesterday when it wasn't raining
  6. i like ottawa for.... good music the canal (in all seasons) having 4 seasons my niece and nephew the beautiful old houses my awesome neighbourhood (the glebe) so many things to do the great people i've met here last but def. not least, the one and only velvet!
  7. i wonder that too. jiggy is huge...but couldn't you get like a 600 lb-er in net and then nothing could go in!
  8. i love that i hate you so and never have to feel bad about it
  9. we got our asses kicked. as much as it pains, congrats ducks, you deserve it.
  10. i don't really understand the internet speed thing, sorry but how do i know how fast it is? i have primus 'advanced' internet now, it's 39.95 per month. i am moving soon so i thought maybe i should get primus phone service (and cancel my bell phone) so i only pay one bill. so i called primus and they are offering 39.95 for both the internet and phone services together. i'm just worried that with this lower price it won't be as fast/good quality or something. also, they said i should move first, with bell, and then make the switch. but i see online once you sign up it can take 10 business days, so that's not good. i don't really know what i'm asking here but if anyone can help me that would be great, hehehe
  11. no... i think this is their farewell fest.

  16. it was a good night. kinda sleepytime though i hadn't seen him solo before. it was just him and an acoustic and an electric. sala rossa was a nice feel for this show. we were late so i was all anxious to miss some of the show but since the man himself was walking up the stairs next to me on the way in, all was well. 2 sets, mostly acoustic. he played the electric just once in each set, and once during the encore. the first couple songs were odd in that way of his. a lot of thwack and squeak going on, interspersed with weird sounding strums. (it was like me trying guitar or something but anyway, those first couple songs went back and forth during them of thwack for a few minutes, and then really cool mediterranean-type music. then he pulled out the electric and played this really dark version of 'o bury me not' (with vocals) which was awesome and was the highlight of the set. back to the acoustic and some nice tunes. the music was very lulling...i kept drifting off into daydream and had to come back. it was still a mediterranean feel, like france to greece to portugal to spain and i felt like i could be sitting on a cobbled street bar by the water in torremolinos. very nice. second set was all around better, though very sleepy too. just lots of nice acoustic lullaby-like songs with cool picking and other stuff i can't really describe! then he played a few songs he wrote for a movie and i really enjoyed those. imagine an italian love song or for late night with a bottle of wine. i was hoping for the electric again but when he pulled it out, it was a really long song that nearly put me to sleep. this show would have been sooo perfect if he'd been playing it at the foot of my bed. then the last song and the encore were great. so...it was a good show but like i said, sleepy time. no face melting, but very beautiful stuff. i think for a concert i prefer him with a backing band though damn montreal has yummy beer is anyone from ottawa going to montreal on weds?
  17. cuz she's a dumb twit and it's called comedy!
  18. i wish i had the gentlemonkey channel at my house!
