  1. I'd argue that your statement seems uneducated

    Ah, touche. I'll consider myself a little better educated now... :)

    Actually, I've heard of most of (but seen only some of, mea culpa) the bands you named, AD... to go off your list, I for one am going to miss Pianosaurus Rex since they're going on hiatus.

    Maybe I'm just grumpy over Babylon... and you're right about the hibernation thing.

  2. guinea pigs are cute but i'd heard they are really stinky and messy and piss all over the place.

    Actually, any animal will get really stinky and messy and piss all over the place if you don't keep them and their environment clean... I've kept ours well cared-for so it hasn't been a problem.

    Ah, well, I tried to sell you on my piggy passion... if you can, keep trying to adopt from a shelter or a fellow hamster-fan. All the best... ;)

  3. Which actually leads to a question I ponedered on another thread: why does Hamilton seem to have a bigger and/or better music scene than Ottawa (nothing against Hamilton, mind you)? Or is that a can of worms we just don't have the time for here?

  4. Wow -- love the t-shirt! I'm gonna try to get one for Mrs Owlette for Christmas!

    Cool photos, too!

    Can you send me more info about the g-pig forum or similar online resources?

    By the way, we adoptd three last week from the OHS -- they're six-month-old litter-mates and they've been taken up by our two-and a half-year-old who had lost her sister a few days before.

    Here are our pigs' names:

    Pepper (1996-1999)

    Flower (1997-2002)

    Sugar (1997-2001)

    Ginger (1998-2004)

    Clover (1998-2005)

    Briar (2001-)

    Clinker (2004-2006)

    Butter (2004-)

    Cheddar (2006-)

    Castor (2006-)

    Stripe (2006)

  5. My real job is small-press publishing tycoon, literary impresario, and promoter of d-i-y culture. :thumbup:

    But to pay the bills I'm a security guard. :thumbdown:

    Oh, yeah, and I'm looking for something better... let me know if you hear anything.

  6. Frankly, I think guinea pigs are better -- I've had eleven of them in the past ten years, five of which are alive now (our record is one that lived to seven and a half years). They have a good temperament, they're big enough to cuddle but small enough to live in close quarters, mine especially enjoy listening to the Dead Kennedys, Phish, and Mendelsohn. Enya irritates them.

    I mean hamsters are cool, I guess... guinea pigs rock! :thumbup: :cool:

  7. Keep up the great work on stopping violence amongst strangers. Those are truly commendable acts and I respect you in the highest for doing it. I'm all about being a peace-maker too. Too much violence and hate around us anyhow. For me, extreme religion, ignorance, narrow-mindedness, and hate simply frustrate me.

    Amen... couldn't've put it any better myself.
