congrats my lovlies!

i didn't know the dog would be doin this night. makes it slightly more enticing.

i can't toggle my side bar at all anymore. the option on the drop down isn't there anymore.

just check it the fuck out willy, stop being so god damned difficult all the time

yesssssssssssssssssssssss

so i just checked on archive and this show isn't up yet. anyone know if it's online anywhere else or who i could beg for a copy of it?

will there be tickets left to sell online to out of towners in a couple of weeks?

fuck, bear was there? OH I'M SO MAD MY RIDE DIDN'T WORK OUT.

thank god this has finally been put together. good job.

oh man, try really hard willy. i definitely want a copy. what a fucking amazing show! i loved the selection of songs, got most of what i wanted to hear. i think i'm in love with patterson hood.

if you have a slow cooker you might want to try doing a roast.

peel and slice 2 or 3 onions so that you get onion rings, just don't take them apart. place slices on the bottom of the pot. then peel and slice some carrots into chunks, throw in some new potatoes. add 3/4 - 1 cup of broth. last time i threw in some wine and it was yummy. then take a 2-3 lb roast and coat it with salt/pepper/spices of your choice all over the outside. place it with the fattiest side up and it'll cook for 10-12 hours on low, or 5-6 on high.

i like to make lots of veggies when i do this...the roast is always almost touching the lid...just remember, the more veggies, the more liquid you need, and it all turns into gravy later anyways!

that one's good for a couple dinners and a couple lunches for 2 people.

if you have everything prepped sunday night, it won't take more than 5 minutes to throw all that together monday morning before work! gotta love slow cookers

i'm jealous

happy birthday jay!

darius says happy birthday too!

This show is TONIGHT! I'm so pumped!

well kids, it's 2 oclock and in hamilton we're just starting to get a BIT of very wet snow, so the way is still clear up to here...hope it works out for ya!

it snowed here for about 20 minutes this afternoon, lets of it, then the sun came out and it all went away. if only all the snowfalls could be like that.

I found that particularly antagonistic conversation a bit-offbase due its lack of 'I'm just being antagonistic' disclaimers.

tip for the new....the only relevant colour is purple and it's sarcastic, but some people like me don't subscribe to the idea...and with zero, it's pretty much assumed everything is antagonistic on some level.

a friend of mine has the roap trip too, and i didn't say anything about it cause i didn't know if it charged your pod, but if it does i'll recommend it too

download itunes from the apple website if you're going to start importing your CD's now. that way everything will be ready to go, you just plug in your ipod when you get it

hey craigers, come see cuff the duke on friday...worth the $10 or whatever cover is.

hey greggers, don't forget about cuff the duke on friday too!

schizophrenics are not people who can be fixed with a few of the right pills and some therapy. and people who think the poor mentally ill person is being misconstrued by the normal world view person are completely wrong.

i get what you're saying, but i don't think you're right. a member of my immediate family has this disease and it's something that will never be cured. without his meds he's violent and unpredictable, a danger to himself and the public. with his meds he's a medicated blob that can try to have a normal life as best he can. it's a complex disease with no simple answers. every patient with this disease has a different set of contributing factors and environmental issues to deal with. i agree that a blanket diagnosis isn't right, i'm sure there are people misdiagnosed everyday despite how hard it is to be diagnosed with the disease....but that doesn't mean that it doesn't exist at all. drugs, whatever they are, whoever they come from and a sympathetic ear will not help you when you're attacking someone with an axe because you're dillussional. some problems and illnesses are bigger than a therapy couch and a pill.

i wouldn't say it's the end yet.

"It is associated with violence, dangerousness, unpredictability, inability to recover, constant illness, constant need for medication and an inability to work. I cannot emphasise enough how stigmatising this label is."

while that may be stigmatizing, for people who have an accurate diagnosis it's the truth.

There's still a lot of work to be done in the mental health field. I'm glad that the stigma associated with mental health itself is slowly being deconstructed.

oh! my mum just told me this yesterday....if you put some vinegar and water and baking soda in the pot and let it boil that should loosen your new addition to the pot.

those are some fine lookin local line ups. i could see doin some bar hopin that night for sure.

Electroluminscent deserves some hypin too.
