[youtube]TSTWqRkBN74[/youtube] I LOVE the web show “Will it Blend?” In case you’re not familiar with the concept (and really, doesn’t the title say it all?) Will it Blend is an actual promotional video series for the Blendtec series of blenders. In it, they blend everything from tiki torches and garden hoses to chicken soup and …Read More

[youtube]Cp3Cs3tDuR8[/youtube] Most of you have probably never heard of Wesley Willis. I certainly hadn’t until today. Wesley Willis was an interesting individual — a diagnosed schizophrenic, Wesley became something of an internet sensation rather late in his short life with a string of literally thousands of short but catchy tunes showcasing his completely tone-deaf poetry-and-rhyme …Read More

I seriously think I may have found my new favorite blog. Celebrities Eating is, as the name would suggest, a blog about celebrities eating. They collect ever picture they can of A-list stars and starlets shoving their faces full of food, and who can blame them? It’s nice to know Nicole Richie, despite her blatant …Read More

Just a heads up for the next time you forget your cell phone at home. As of last week, the cost of a local call on a Bell Canada payphone is 50 cents. I think it’s safe to assume that other payphone companies will follow. It’s a been a long time coming — not only …Read More

For years I’d been told that this is the way Egg McMuffin’s were made, and when I saw them use one of these egg logs in Clerks II it felt like a confirmation of sorts. But it turns out I was wrong! Out of curiousity, I asked a McManager the other day and they assured …Read More

Just got word from the fine folks over at fjetsam (ok, that’s me) that the flagship Sam the Record Man store on Yonge St. will be closing its doors for good on June 30th. It’s a Canadian landmark, and an absolute shame to see it go. More details and editorial over at fjetsam.

It’s not a huge sale, but if you happen to own an HDTV and an Xbox 360 and haven’t picked up the HD-DVD Player to go along with it, nows your chance. Future Shop is bundling the XBox 360 HD-DVD Player with the newly released HD-DVD release of The Matrix Trilogy for only $249.99. That’s …Read More

[youtube]5sw2OvIgoO8[/youtube] This one goes out to all my homies. Word to your mothers and so on. It’s hard to not be amused by a man teasing the drive-thru box — but rapping his order at it? That’s priceless. Interesting fact. I can go to any McDonald’s drive thru in North America, say “It’s Jim,” and …Read More

I’m going to a wedding tomorrow, and I’ve had a heck of a time coming up with the right gift. We’re big believers in getting people gifts that stand out so they’ll always remember the who gave it, and there was little in their registry save for towels and dishes. While trying to come up …Read More

[youtube]ihJeRY2i7Bk[/youtube] “I’ll make you a hamburger better than McDonald’s.” “Better than McDonalds??” It may be hard for you to remember back this far, but there was a time somewhere between the invention of the wheel and the election of George Bush the First when Eddie Murphy was funny. Really funny. Like – genius funny. During …Read More

If you’re a parent, chances are you have to sit through more children’s programming in a week than you ever would in your life if you had the chance. That’s not to say all of it is bad – in fact, some of it is quite good. In Canada, we’re fortunate enough to have a …Read More

I’m a big believer in buying namebrand electronics. For the most part, you get what you pay for when it comes to TV’s, cameras, MP3 players, etc.. That’s why, when I hear of a brand like “Protron” I instantly cringe. I checked online – the only thing I could find that offered any information whatsoever …Read More

A navigation system is something I could never see myself using. Of course, I don’t travel into uncharted territory very often, so I’m probably not who they’re trying to sell to anyways. Still – couldn’t you just spend three dollars on a map instead? Regardless of my old-man unwillingness to adapt to progress, this is …Read More

[youtube]mYyDXH1amic[/youtube] Normally we’re quite pro-McDix around here on McDonald’s Mondays, however, in an effort to provide fair and mcbalanced coverage (and in an effort to showcase something really cool) we present The Bionic Burger. While the first part of this video is a re-creation and the last part of the video is fact-based slander, it’s …Read More

Just because you’re all Smart Canucks doesn’t mean that some of you aren’t Single Canucks. Maybe you just haven’t met that special someone, or maybe youwouldn’t even know where to begin looking. But have you thought to try looking on your computer? Online dating sites used to have the same stigma as newspaper dating ads, …Read More
