Coffee Spoons...

The first CD I ever bought was purchased using change I'd saved and collected for nearly a month. I was so excited to make my way through the doors of the record store with an actual mission at hand, and not just to browse around. I was 13 years old, and the CD was "Clumsy" by Our Lady Peace. The singer, Raine Maida, had a voice that captivated me and pulled me into every song. I listened to that album over and over again until it wouldn't play anymore. I've actually bought that same album twice more since then as replacements. Last year Raine Maida released a solo album entitled "The Hunter's Lullaby", an album in which every song encourages you to feel what he felt while writing it. I encourage you to view his website at www.rainemaida.net. The following is a video in which Raine has documented himself raising money on the streets of Toronto to build a school for children in the Congo, it's paired with the song "Yellow Brick Road" from his album.

Favorites??

I've never been one to associate the title of "favorite" with anything. I have no favorite color, favorite band, favorite number, favorite flavor, etcetera. So for me to list any website here and claim it to be my favorite, would be a lie. However the website I frequent the most, other than my email clients that is, would be Hulu. I attribute this to the fact that I don't own, or have any intention of ever again owning, a television. The next most visited websites on my bookmark toolbar would be The Pirate Bay and Html Goodies.

Adventures for the Adventureless

In the beginning of any great adventure there are a series of goals and expectations that one wishes to meet. This adventure is much like any other. However, this is not a shortcoming feat, nor does it include a difinitive plan. This adventure is life, and life has a way of leaving you - well, lifeless.
