Link of the Day: The Perry Bible Fellowship

, September 4, 2010

The Perry Bible Fellowship is yet another comic that I can only really recommend on the basis of its archive. Not because it’s gotten really shoddy, like some strips I’ve mentioned, but because it’s updated sporadically at best these days. Once again, though, there’s some really great stuff in the archives. Do check it out.

Link of the Day: Rachel Blair

, September 3, 2010

Hey, have I mentioned that my sister has a website? Well, she does. And as you can see, much like my brother, she’s got an awful lot going on. She’s bringing the whole thing back to Toronto later this month, after a year of study in the UK. Looking forward to it, Rach!

Link of the Day: St. Lawrence Centre for the Arts

, September 2, 2010

The reason I’m linking to the St. Lawrence Centre is to tell you about Poetic Fashion, which I’ve mentioned in this space before. It’s a great event, and one of just many amazing things happening under the Literature for Life umbrella. I do hope you’ll check it out. Tickets can be purchased in advance through […]

Link of the Day: The Beguiling

, September 1, 2010

One of the finest comic book shops in town. Hell, one of the finest comic book shops in any number of towns, I’d say.

Link of the Day: Beatport

, August 31, 2010

If you buy club music online, and you’re not already shopping at Beatport, then I highly recommend it. Beatport boasts a diverse catalog and a fairly seamless purchasing and downloading process. The prices aren’t too shabby, and you’ll find a lot of stuff that’s not available through the iTunes store or other such services. You […]

Links of the Day: Human Rights Watch and Amnesty International

, August 30, 2010

I didn’t post any links yesterday, because I was a bit too busy tearing down after Guelph and getting ready to head to Ottawa. Oh, what a life I lead! So today, let’s give you two links instead of the usual one. The first is Human Rights Watch, which offers a wide range of RSS […]

Link of the Day: #voteTO

, August 28, 2010

The other day, my friend Chris dropped a line to ask which of the mayoral candidates, if any, I was planning to pull for in the next election. Much as I hated to do it, I had to admit that I’m not really wowed by anyone yet. Not in a positive “I can understand why […]

Link of the Day: Bob the Angry Flower

, August 27, 2010

To tell you the truth, I have a bit of a love/hate relationship with this comic strip. I was a big fan back in high school, but to say that it’s not what it used to be is an understatement. Still, the archives are well worth checking out.

Link of the Day: How to write a letter to an MP

, August 26, 2010

I’ve been rambling on a lot lately about the importance of contacting various MPs about this an that. But what if you’ve never written to an MP before? How do you write an effective letter? Citizens for Public Justice have drawn up a guide to writing to your MP, and it’s full of useful tips […]

Link of the Day: Lifehacker’s Guide to Meditation for the Rest of Us

, August 25, 2010

The folks at Lifehacker have posted a fairly thorough guide to meditation for beginners; they call it “our layman’s introduction to something we’re still working on understanding ourselves.” If you’ve been looking to learn more about meditation, then this guide could be a fine place to start – and even if you haven’t, some of […]
