Back in Atlanta For Another Cool Movie

Sony Pictures brought me down to Atlanta two weeks ago to spend a day on the set of Baby Driver, the upcoming action thriller from Edgar Wright. That’s all I’m allowed to say until closer to the release, and at the moment the heist picture has no release date but I’m guessing a March 2017 release.

I’m here again, writing this from the lobby of Lowes hotel on warm spring day in Atlanta for another movie I can’t talk about until early next year.

Where I Traveled in 2015

Cleaning office and closet, and going through countless documents and receipts, I had forgotten just how crazy and busy 2015 really was. From our main website being acquired, to my personal website being ripped from me, at least my career afforded me the chance to see cool places and meet cool people. Here’s where I went in 2015…

Hi all,

Quick update! I’m still alive and working hard on screenrant.com and trying to catch up with the surge of new video game titles that just released (I’m uploading a video right now based on one!). As I went to my channel I noticed that even without updating my channel much in the last few months I crossed the 1 million views mark so cheers and thanks for watching. There’s lots of cool stuff on the way!

We Adopted A Puppy!

Last week we adopted a 5-month old puppy named Brodee. He came from a couple who also owned his very-different-looking brother, Finley, and after meeting him twice and walking him in the park, he proved to be the perfect fit for us.

Brodee’s listed as an “Aussie Shepard Mix” and the previous owners told us he’s part Border Collie, but looking at his curvy tail, there’s definitely some other breed(s) in there too.

The Book of Mormon Is As Good As They Say

For a while now, getting tickets for The Book of Mormon has been nearly impossible since it began its run on Broadway in 2011 after many years of development. They sellout quickly whenever touring in Toronto and after seeing the show live, we can understand why.

Ever Been To A Scale Model Air Show?

Ana and I went to the Waterloo Air Show again earlier this summer and had a blast. It was a second time going and seeing a powerful military jet fighter (not to mention the Snowbirds) seemingly defying the laws of physics never gets old. Keeping with the theme, today I went to my first model airshow .

Motorcyclist Rear-Ends Car And Lands on Roof

The video blew that it YouTube a few days ago blew my mind. It seems like something out of a Jackass movie.

A man speeding down a highway on his motorcycle uncontrollably, rear-ends a car, seemingly obliterating the machine but he makes it out alive. Somehow, he flipped and landed on his feet on the roof of the vehicle. The car slowed down (I wonder what the driver is thinking) to let him off safely. Insane.

Long Weekend Video Game Recording Session

After spending the entire day yesterday at the St. Jacob’s Farmer Market, Antiques store and Costco, then napping and cooking dinner before finishing The Originals, I dedicated today (Sunday) of the May long weekend (for Canada anyway) to catching up in some games.
