I put a CALL out for you to send in a photo of your dog wearing a sweater a few weeks back… and you didn’t send me any. I did, however, meet a nice bulldog named Lily the other day at a store in Gastown that you may be familiar with (Nouvelle Nouvelle) and she reassured me that there are plenty of dogs wearing sweaters around the city, but that I will have to track them down and shoot photos of them myself… which I plan to do.
Tomorrow from 9AM til 9PM, the new CBC building downtown will be open for the public to take a look during their first ever OPEN HOUSE benefiting BC food banks. If seeing the inside of the awesomeness simply isn’t enough then perhaps a free Said the Whale show might entice you? All the info is HERE, Christine Mcavoy’s going to be shooting some snaps for us there.
In celebration of this occasion, I wanted to share a couple of photos I shot there last week when I was in to talk on the Early Edition with Ian Hanomansing. Pictured below is a wall of portraits of some of the TV and radio personalities that work for CBC here in Vancouver. You might notice that all but one of them is looking into the camera…
That lone wolf staring off into the distance is the one and only… …READ THE REST OF THIS ENTRY>>>
Another teaser for MENTAL BEAST!!! It’s Nardwuar interviewing KRML host, Kiles Mckay. The series starts dropping on the 7th… stay tuned!

A couple of weeks back I was invited to be on a jury for Discorder Magazine‘s BEST OF THE DECADE. Each of the 33 people on the jury were instructed to list their top ten Vancouver acts of the last ten years, then those results were tallied up and a master list was made. I’m happy to report that the act I listed as my all-time favourite, The New Pornographers, struck a chord (I swear I wasn’t trying to come up with a music pun there) with the rest of the jury and have been awarded first place. Ruling.
Also, my current favourite Vancouver act, Dan Mangan, wound up 29th on the list! I was asked to write a little something about him (minus music puns), which you can read HERE.
It’s not as impressive as “Quite Possibly The Most Awesome Birdhouse In The City“, but this is a pretty awesome birdhouse located off Main (like THIS one). This might be a dumb question but where do robins go in the winter? Do they fly south or do they hole up in houses like this?
For everybody who doesn’t leave the house before 10AM, just wanted to share this photo I snapped this morning to let you know that December has officially arrived!
That’s not heavy pixelation, that’s a heavy Mount Pleasant frost, my friend.
