I heard about this Improv Everywhere event that took place yesterday, but I don’t usually use the subway on the weekends. Check out the story and links in David Topper’s post in Torontoist:
February 24: We Can Dance If We Want To

(This draft’s been sitting around for months, time to set it free!)
I like Daft Punk’s song “Harder Better Faster Stronger”, whose most well-known cover is by Kanye West. But personally, although West’s is the flashiest and has the biggest budget, I think it’s the least interesting and creative of the covers.
Have you seen the Daft [...]

You may have heard “Suddenly I See” on heavy rotation in 2006, but what really turned me on to KT Tunstall’s work is the foot-stomping song “Black Horse and the Cherry Tree” from that first album, “Eye on the Telescope” (released 2005). Check out her live version here — she shows her singing/songwriting/performing chops on [...]

The House of Fielding’s been rather hectic lately, since the conclusion of the Morocco trip. Haven’t had much time to process photos, write, or even do laundry — and we all know I’d rather do the first two things before I’ll do laundry. Last night I joined a second [...]

This song brought me into the city on the final leg of my weekend drive (950 miles / 1528 kms), and I love its catchy chorus and retro 60s feel. (It’s a remake of the Etta James song.) I’ve said for years that if I could re-exist as someone else, I would be a black [...]

Earlier this year, Canadian environmentalist David Suzuki went on a tour across the country to, as he puts it, “… tap into basic concerns that Canadians have about the environment, and then bring those messages to Ottawa.” One of those issues is about the threat to the environment that plastic bottles pose in terms of [...]

Seagull becomes crisp shoplifter
A seagull has turned shoplifter by wandering into a shop and helping itself to [...]

And why would you WANT to knit marzipan, you may ask? Why, so you can create these:

I’ve talked about Cairns, Australia, numerous times before on this blog, but I’m going to mention it again to plug my friend Steve Savage’s latest (ad)venture, Cairns Unlimited.
I spent six crazy months in Cairns, but I didn’t own a camera while I lived there, all I’ve got are really low-quality prints from a disposable camera [...]

airing — for a photo project I did two years ago, with David’s help
One of the things I’d really like to get back to doing on a more consistent basis is letter-writing. (Kim: I owe you a letter!) Who am I kidding, I can’t even keep up with email. Anyway, I’m working on it.
Before I [...]
