We are growing at an alarming rate! I am sorry about the site being down for a bit there, we had a little hiccup – the site had waaaaaaay (7 a’s) more hits than I thought we would get in our first week and we actually smashed the server that we are hosted on! We are working on moving it to the best server possible so it won’t happen again!
Just wanted to direct your attention over to the “subscribe” button over there on at the top of the sidebar. I finally got Feedburner setup properly so you can all click on this friendly icon or the “subscribe” button to subscribe to the Feed with Google Reader, or My Yahoo! or whatever reader you kids are using these days.
A thousand pardons to those of you who already subscribed to the feed in the two days since launch and have been wondering why your reader hasn’t been updating properly! You don’t need to change anything, it was a mistake on my end!
(Apologies in advance to all my vegetarian reader out there) Introducing Burger King’s $200 burger! Yes, you read that correctly, BURGER KING has a $200 burger!
“Wagyu beef, white truffles, pata negra ham slices, cristal onion straws, Modena balsamic vinegar, lambs lettuce, pink Himalayan rock salt, organic white wine and shallot-infused mayonnaise all served up on an Iranian saffron and white truffle dusted bun.”
Pfff What? No Tyrannosaurus egg on there?
This work of art will be on sale once per week in London and there is a happy ending to the story – proceeds go to the Help a London Child charity. You could always save yourself the heart-attack and just donate $200 straight to the charity but that’s just my craaaaazy opinion.
This burger does not win the biggest burger award though… Who here is a fan of In & Out? You know the double-double? The 4×4 animal style? The mythical 8 by 8. You know what I’m sayin’? I know a girl who even attempted a 16 patty burger. But my friends that is nothing… what I am about to show you will change your life…
So how many of your listen to podcasts? I am like 99 years late on this whole podcast thing but my sister got me listening to Rick Gervais’ Podcast and it’s the funniest thing I’ve heard in a long time – I actually laughed out loud, by myself. It is the type of humour that you can’t explain to someone else. It’s like trying to re-tell a Mitch Hedberg joke! Anyone know what I’m talking about?
The show is essentially Ricky Gervais and Stephen Merchant (creators of the The Office) making fun of their friend Karl. Karl is actually what makes the show hilarious. I am convinced that, although he appears like an idiot, he is actually the brains behind the whole show. I was going to try and write out a couple of the parts that actually made me laugh out loud but like I said it just doesn’t work like that.
I’ve uploaded an mp3 of The Best of The Ricky Gervais Show. Try to listen to this and get some work done – It just won’t happen. PS – My favourite part is the CB radio part, hahah oh man.. MORE…
I heard several times over the past couple months that there would be no Richmond Night Market this year. Sad news for anyone hoping for a little taste of Hong Kong at home, commonly referred to as “The place to get BBC hoodies for $60″. I am happy to report that you will be able to get those Vietnamese DVDs, cellphone dongles, and fishballs, the Night Market is back every weekend from now till eternity the end of summer!
I am posing a challenge – it’s really simple: Find a film scene worse than this one from Shark Attack 3. It doesn’t have to be horror but I think they’re your best bet. Leave a comment with your choice (provide “Youtube proof” or it didn’t happen). I’ll add your youtube videos to this post. Good luck…
After a little delay, Brave Art Vancouver has been confirmed! Friday June 13th 7-11pm at the Ayden Gallery (88 West Pender – Second Floor of Tinseltown). Have some drinks, hear some tunes, watch some live art, peruse the gallery. The Whistler Brave Art show was a blast and the Vancouver opening will be no different!
The Canadian Press reported some extremely sad news today, Canucks defenceman Luc Bourdon was killed today riding his motorcycle in northern New Brunswick. He was just 21 years old and he had so much potential as the Canucks first round pick in the 2005 draft. I am shocked, this is so tragic. Thoughts and prayers go out to his family.
