Shameless Canadian Comedy Award Campaigning

Spam as blogpost. I think this is a new low. Hooray for living in the future! As I’m neck deep in production, the twitter box to your right might be a little more active than the site over the next few weeks – but probably not very. Hope everyone’s having a great Summer! — I […]

Welcome TO THE WORLD OF TOMORROW (echo)

March 3rd, 2009 · No Comments

Happy New FUTURE!

January 2nd, 2009 · No Comments

I had new-years news all lined up, but I’m still ironing some kinks out of the new design (now with unnerving levels of GIANT FLOATING HEAD) – so I’ll be breif instead: Happiest of New Years to everyone who joined me here since the sites relaunch last Spring, and remember – it may not be […]
