Jason St. Laurent, Inside Out's Director of Programming, explained the cancellation of With Gilbert and George to the audience at the Hogtown Homos screening. According to St. Laurent, the financier...
It's early on in the fest yet, but so far everything I've seen has knocked it out of the park, starting with the opener (Like A Virgin) on Thursday night. Congratulations to Jason St. Laurent, John D...
I'm really glad this is being talked about too, Robin. While far from perfect, gay rights have come a long way in this country, but trans rights are still way way behind. It is the new "front line" ...
On the topic of offensive ads, I find those "where are you ladies going?" tv spots for frozen dinners that make it "good to be a man" way more icky. and yeah, there were lots of good whisky cocktails...
LOL @ Johnnie's teh gay ad...ROFL @ Marc's second set of three! I also hope that my gayness isn't the most interesting reason why I don't buy Canadian Club....
Nice contribution, T-Rek...there's only four strings, maybe it's an upright-bass-walk? Do you have a pic of the upper portion of the strings? Can it be tuned/played?...
...increasing our coverage of certain key areas that A. Puppy is particularly passionate about...while gradually phasing out coverage of others that A. Puppy is not... So will A. Puppy be in charge of...
Thanks for the props, Jonathan! The credit really goes to Reel Asian's amazing Executive Director, Deanna Wong, for identifying the clip. I just passed the info along. As Roger Rabbit would say..."w...
I was already planning to be out of the house during Earth Hour, so all the lights were off at my place anyways. On the bus ride down to my previously-scheduled dinner, I didn't see a lot of lights t...
My only other major city transit experience has been with San Francisco's MUNI and IMO they fare worse than the TTC by comparison. Even less all-night service, no central dispatch, and their "subways...
glassx: The 320 is the all-night version of the 97, so they are technically different lines that run along (mostly) the same route. The 97A turns around at Wilson, so northbound 97As turn left onto W...
Grey Goose, Hpnotiq and Scotch? With that combination, I'm not surprised that the drink isn't "well-integrated". A scotch "wash" (swirling a very small amount of scotch around the inside of the glas...
AdamS: his current husband may have something to say about that ;-) (but I totally share your sentiment!)...
I saw the one in front of the Colonnade over the weekend, then the rest of them while walking through Yorkville on Sunday night. A number of them had been damaged (I blame "Those No-Good Kids," or TN...
Nothing beats the Shuffle Demons' be-bop-squawnk version of the Hockey Night In Canada theme. And that's ex-Shuffle Demon Richard Underhill as the bemasqued stiltwalker with the flaming soprano sax w...
Yeah I just got into work at the 401 building and we're all fine here but the entire building smells like smoke. That was one hell of a smoke plume....
Subway mice have always made me kind of squick...until now! I probably still won't find the real ones endearing, but I'll take Rosemary's illustrated ones any day! and I'd buy a book, too....
joelphillips: yah I totally agree...the most likely correct math I can come up with is: rt(3x^2) + rt(5)x = 12 which would break down to x[rt(3)] + x[rt(5)] = 12 or x[rt(3) + rt(5)] = 12 so x ...
Repertory cinemas are also important to the dozens of smaller film festivals (basically, everyone OTHER than TIFF) that proliferate in this town. As someone who's been kicking around the festival wor...
As an Asian (albeit with only moderately crooked teeth), I feel compelled by stereotype to point out that the math depicted is ALL wrong! (I'm hoping this is because the cartoonist simply isn't very...
