If you can reconcile being a mind-melder for corporate america then you should get into advertising. You can get paid a lot of money to have a lot of fun.

I would like to formally invite you, Ralph Nader, to come run in the Canadian election.

In related news, Adam Horovitz (aka Ad-Rock of the Beastie Boys) and David Was of Was/Not Was (!!!) and their Grand Royal cohorts have offered up a fine Ralph Nader Remix of Countdown.

In the meantime, join the referendum to have Stockwell Day change his name to Dorris. This is classic 22 Minutes, but there is an important point here. However, I’m going to rob my point of any air of legitimacy it may have had by quoting a prime-time TV show about a different country, but I think there is a point in there somewhere:

“You know we forget sometimes, in all the talk about democracy, it’s a Republic. People don’t make the decisions, they choose the people who make the decisions. Could they do a better job choosing? Yeah. But when you consider the alternatives…”

The new Final Fantasy movie looks like it’s going to be a real milestone for computer generated animation. View the trailer and be amazed

Only those with freaky-ass high bandwidth and Quicktime need apply.

I would like a bus. It would be fun. However, as IslandEdition.com has pointed out, I don’t deserve a bus.

As usual, Don makes good point and a good example of why alternative media is important.

If you have Flash, 10 minutes, and an open mind you should visit nosepilot.com.

It’s nice to see someone with talent in animation and flash as opposed to flash alone (NOTE: I have neither).

While enjoying living in a peaceful and free country this morning (actually, I was just sleeping, but the two are certainly not mutually exclusive), a marching band tromped down the street, tooting horns, drumming drums, and other such marching band-type things.

Honestly, a marching band marched right down the street. It was surreal. Anyways, in honour of the day (it’s Remembrance Day in Canada for those who don’t know what I’m talking about) I present a few links:

• The Canadian Virtual War Memorial – An amazing resource of veteran names with links to their corresponding page in First World War Book of Remembrance (this is amazing, every hand-drawn page is scanned). Nice work ffoeg.
• Remembrance Day becoming more vital from National Post Online
• Remembering on-line from The Globe and Mail
• A nation pays tribute and We Remember from the CBC

The Onion gets it right again.

Their
Bush Or Gore: ‘A New Era Dawns’ is so true it’s almost not funny. Almost.

A dead man has been elected to the senate.

I can’t even think of anything funny to say about this. You just can’t make stuff like this up.
