Hope the holiday treats you well...

A few too many...

Had my 2nd annual Xmas office party last night. Way too many bottles of St. Peter's English Ale washing down way too many raw oysters! The blizzard is not helping my hang over. 

No evil - heard, seen or said

Found this funny Moontower related image...

A Santa Message...

This is pretty cool - you can do a personalized message from Santa. Thought Ethan might like it!

Matisyahu Tonight!

Going to see Matisyahu tonight at the Phoenix! K'naan is opening. Should be a great show.

*UPDATE*

So the show was amazing. K-naan was inspirational, but didn't have the intensity or energy of Matisyahu. From his intense glares and wild spinning, the show was thumping. The pacing was a little weird - some long slow interludes. But the highlight was his beatbox - it blew me away. He definitely did "Chop 'em down"! Unfortunately no "Message in a Bottle" cover though

Jizz in my Pants

Ok. If you've seen the SNL short, "Dick in a Box", this next one is easily going to make you

JIZZ IN YOUR PANTS.

Are you watching 30 Rock!?

Jack Donaghy is unbelievable.

I was so hesitant about this show at first but now I can't get enough - too funny! Mind blasting.

Moontower - tech glitch?

I am having trouble with the Moontower. I am using Safari and when I mouse over any of the posts, my cursor disappears and only becomes visible when I am over a link. This has been happening for a while (happens both using Tiger and Leopard). Anyone else having this problem?

Funniest TV Shows EVER!!!

I stumbled across these shows on the internets...

Summer Heights High & We Can Be Heroes - these Aussie shows star comedian Chris Lilley who plays all the main roles. He is amazing! These shows rank up there with Ricky Gervais' The Office.

 

Pineapple Express to Nowhere

So, started watching the Pineapple Express movie last night, and I had to turn it off. What a pile of crap, and I pride myself as being up with stoner humour. Anyone else see it?

Catchin' Up

Dudes. Glad to see the MoonTower taking a few hits again.

Life is good for the Slippy clan - and we just joined the WiiFit ranks since K got one for her birthday. I don't do a very good tree, and I think I hurt my neck in a half moon on the first day. But I did manage to rock my WiiFit age at 30, even though my BMI puts me in the "overweight" or "tubby" category. Do they really have to adjust your Mii to simulate your waist size?

Dubby, I was thinking about your career, and I found this excellent video, which made me think that maybe you should try directing music vids? Woods looks kinda like the guy on the motorcycle...

Hey - thought I would throw up a frivolous post. See if we can get the Moontower pumping again.

This one is a movie review - Rocknrolla!

Guy Ritchie does it again. Not the amazing gun fight scenes of LSTSB, and nothing can really beat Brad Pitt in Snatch, but a great bit role for Jeremy Piven (have you been watching Entourage S05!!??) Worth checking out this film on the big screen!

Komoka-bound!

Holy shit. Profanity fully intended. I can't believe how long its been since I posted here, let alone how long its been since ANYONE posted here! MoonTower is 5 years old!

Anyways, looking forward to the get-together this weekend. Komoka, here we come!

Loving my new car!
So Fun. Love to drive again!

Dubwii!

I can't believe it, but I am the proud owner of a game console! Picked up a Wii yesterday. Sarah and I started jonesin' for it a couple days ago, then in one of the best impulse buys of my life we drove to a Best Buy and picked it up. Now we are gunnin' for a Wii Fit!

Star Wars Trumpet Routine

I know this is somewhat sacrilegious, but I thought it was worth the post, if only to cringe at enormity of its uncomfortablenesseseses.

Bullfrog Power & Gord Downie

If I already haven't mentioned it - you should consider switching to Bullfrog Renewable Power. It is simple to switch and it guarentees that the electricity powering your house is coming from renewalble sources. As more consumers switch, more power from windmills and solar will be added to the grid. No nukes and dirty coal!

Check it out and switch here: Bullfrog Power

Last week Sarah and I attended the 2nd annual Bullfrog Bash. It was a charming evening of beer, snacks and chatting about renewable energy. Evan Solomon hosted and near the end of the event he introduced a special musical guest - Gord Downie. Gord sung four solo acoustic songs - 2 songs, which I didn't recognize, I can only assume are works in progress for another Downie or Hip album. He then filled the room with an amazing version of 'Pretend' followed by a mind blowing moment - standing 10 feet from Gord Downie watching him belt out a passionate version of 'Ahead by a Century'. His commentary was amazing and poetic. I am amazed to think that I saw Gord Downie and the Tragically Hip 17 years ago in a field in Carliyse, Ontario thinking it couldn't get any better than this, then last week it did.

This is England - wicked film!

Highly recommended! This film blew me away. Never heard of it and was in Suspect Video with Woods who pointed to it. Gripping.

Hi, howdy, hey

Yo.

Feels like its been ages since I last posted, and the Moon Tower is now 4 years old! I've been busy working on some cabinetry for the upcoming bathroom reno, and some new forays into confectionary world that I'll tell you about at a later date.

On tops o' dat, seen some good flicks and such lately. Here's a quick list of stuff enjoyed:

- Robot Chicken
- Knocked Up
- Hot Fuzz
- Air Guitar Nation

Check you later!

SKATE.

Pretty excited about this game...should be out Monday.
