Lumping in a couple of Outlaw Band shows to the Island (the band room at the Nanaimo Cambie once wallpapered in male genitalia, an entire lower male torso drawn around the showerhead), a visit or two to Yolandivar's pre-Cedarton farm (pre-Rufoustan would be ... before 2002!?!), my trip to Saturna with Dominique and my cursed 2007 Valentine's Day visit to Victoria in order to purchase my bitter...

I have just created a twitter account. I have set my timezone to +3.30, and my location to TEHRAN. From what I understand, I have become yet another tree in a forest for the real Iranians to hide in. This and other things a netizen can do to help out the Iranian protesters can be found here .

So I went to see That 1 Guy tonight at The Wild Buffalo and it was AWESOME . I got to hang out with porphyre which is odd since she *never* comes down to Bellingham.
