She says "its a bit silly but I kind of thought that was more fun than trying to show off how many songs you can fit in 5 minutes... so yeah here u go!"


Be sure to check out her MySpace for a cute Christmas tune.


OBTW, I might have settled for a broom-handle Festivus pole instead of dragging a Christmas tree up three flights, a week after Christmas. I will aim to upgrade to an aluminum Festivus pole for 2009. Resolutions baby!

YouTube Stole My Idea

for BIGGER video..

This is now a standard:
It's a clip about those damn Mormons. I'm posting it because I thought it was a parady narration over Superman the Cartoon. HA!


Always ahead of the curve here, but I tell you one thing: I watched Zeitgeist: Final Cut for the first time. Pretty true. The interest in the cosmos is essentially an early form of mind-play, likewise with horoscopes. Though I think God was nailing me extra hard this week.

Excitement of the week: Lotto Lady won a $5000 BIG Prize on a $2 Instant Scratch ticket. Best part is earning commission of $150 from two Lucky Letters - M, and O.

'MOM' was a good payback from a few down-weeks of winnings; Lotto Lady is a big-spender weekly-regular. She wants me to use it for New Years at the Elbow River Casino, which living Downtown Calgary, Alberta might make to be a nice, easy night in the new city. It's going to be wikked living close the Red Mile, the Saddledome, Calgary Stampede, and some of the best skiing in the world!


60 Hours of work left, family Holidays, and then a great start to 2009 living in the cleanest city in the world.

Super Steep Skiing

Just came across Chris Davenport's photo-blog on his skiing adventures. Have not scrolled more than three pictures and look at the skiing in Antarctica:

TADT - The American Dream Team

The term "American Dream" was first used by James Truslow Adams in his 1931 novel, "The Epic of America. Truslow wrote of "that dream of a land in which life should be better and richer and fuller for everyone", a land of "opportunity for each according to ability or achievement." This was "not a dream of motor cars and high wages merely, but a dream of social order in which each man and each woman shall be able to attain to the fullest stature…" that , "of which they are innately capable…recognized by others for what they are, regardless of the fortuitous circumstances of birth or position."

Since his prolific writing, the "American Dream" has evolved. The American Dream Team is on the frontier of audio-visual sets reaching the masses. Born in Brooklyn, NY, TADT brings electro, house, and hip-hop to the crowd mixing turntablism with mind-altering visuals. Comprised of DJs, VJs, producers, designers, and animators TADT is here to raise the bar with a multi-sensory party experience.

the DeadMau5

Anyone who partied a few years ago in Toronto, Canada's town of the Underground, would have see a giant, plush, walking mou5 in the city. But literally, as Joel Zimmerman mastered his sound, he went from unknown to global phenomenon! You may not like the borderline-commercial style of the house he releases, but Deadmau5 throws a show.

Here he is at Miami Winter Music Conference 2008 Mainstage

Judge Jules LIVE @ Planet Love 2007 - Northern Ireland

As crazy as Judge Jules can hype a crowd, he was years of fanstatic mixes and parties under his belt. It is such classic Jules to freak over his music and work his crowd up. Big Room sound champion!

Britney,

You weren't the one that changed the world. You didnt' tell me what to agree on, I did. I made my own decisions before you sobered up. You are still a bitch for deceiving millions of people. But as a human, I can accept that you've regrown parts of your past, tumored over your horrendous appreciaction of your fans and yourself, and have tried through troubled times to help yourself.


I couldn't care less for you. However, I could not care more for allowing addiction disease to be the forefront of the public. We all are touched by addiction. We all struggle through different emotions, depending on our experiences. Addiction needs to be known as a disease.


And you should be proud, you're sober. You're beautiful because of your decisions.
But never say it was just you. Never say you didnt have help from the looks, the words, the choices of others. We all help eachother.

Addiction takes a while to overcome, and I cannot see supporting you when you do not acknowledge that to the public. Our realisations as addicts also has to acknowledge those who helped us. I know my friends and foes have their opinions, but I personally know that thye each helped.


But I do give you hope, and I give others hope.

Addiction is horrible.
Know it, understand it, speak up, offer solutions.

Understand how it affects you and those around you.
And be better for it.

-G.

Classiqs of Breakcore

Many people in the pop-disco scene don't know what any intelligable electronic music consists of. Rythem, bass, strategy, and finesse. Pop-house has none - the DJ's have it all.


While this set's DJ (me) may not have it all, he's got a good track selection. Enjoy it, hardcore broken beat massacre. Well, more of a friendly PLUR Puddle, but same idea of mass-organisation!


:P
