    Blue Jays

    Where does this silly, "Him" and "He Who Walks On Water" malarkey come from? If anything, he's been vastly underappreciated.

    Blue Jays

    Halladay's sick of the same old crap. The ridiculous way J.P. handled his possible trade completely rattled him. This is a man who, the past couple seasons, has given up chunks of his salary so his team could go out and try and build something resembling a contender. He sees them not trading for...

    Toronto Canoe Landing Park | ?m | ?s | Concord Adex

    There are a couple new parks in St.Catharines without them, so I thought maybe this was the new way. And the article mentioned the trees were parched, so...

    Toronto Canoe Landing Park | ?m | ?s | Concord Adex

    Did they install a sprinkler system? From what was said in the article, I gather they did not. Edit: Although, I do see those indicative orange flags...

    Didn't people dress to the 9's back then because they were afraid of God's Wrath?

    Ikea Catalogue Font Change

    I got a little upset while recording and slammed my fist down on my Ikea desk. To my surprise, it wasn't a solid piece of wood, but a sort of thick veneer on top of a supporting network of crappy pieces of wood, with crumpled up paper inbetween. IKEA - Swedish for, Good From Afar, But Far...

    Toronto Canoe Landing Park | ?m | ?s | Concord Adex

    If this park can accommodate concerts and events such as food festivals, it will be a success. Looking at the layout though, I don't know if that's a possibility, as those two tents take up a large chunk of that lower right quadrant and beside that lies that ridiculous, synthetic silliness...

    Colourful characters from the past

    What about Graeme Kirkland? Apparently, he's become a successful financial adviser. There was a woman, who I believe was transgendered, and used to work the corner at Queen and Shaw right across from the Candy Factory lofts during their conversion. She looked like some sort of living anime...

    CNE Air Show

    I used to love watching the show from my loft at Queen and Dufferin. Those things are LOUD and, as someone mentioned earlier, it can be cringe-inducing when they get close. There are some pictures here... http://cnews.canoe.ca/CNEWS/Canada/2009/09/05/10763371-cp.html (click on "CNE air...

    Toronto Canoe Landing Park | ?m | ?s | Concord Adex

    As I've said before, I believe renderings in general, are at the heart of the problem. They're always too flashy and inaccurate and drawn up with the intention of impressing the company - or whomever - at the proposal stage. The basic, fundamental design is always buried in layers of needless...

    It just seems so temporary - like a lot of the aspects of this park.

    Toronto Two Gladstone | ?m | 8s | Streetcar | TACT Architecture

    I don't know how close the building will wind up being to the sidewalk, but it'd be nice if they could get rid of that wall and incorporate some urban, social, hangout steps (for lack of better terminology) in there.

    Dufferin Street: Eliminating the jog

    What do they do with the channel in the meantime? Would they lay those tracks now?

    Never noticed that, but you're right. Things were better back then - from a truck.

    Dufferin Street: Eliminating the jog

    I remember, as a young, 20 year old, walking under that bridge on my way to and back from doing groceries at the Price Chopper. They'd had some sort of silly competition for creating murals on the concrete walls. They were awful and as much as I loved the actual bridge, I remember thinking...
