  • Area 51

    So we were on Google Maps looking at Area 51. The actual map is blotted out, mainly because they have no public maps of the military base but I’m assuming the US Gov has a block on the location. Take a look.

    When we took a peak at it in satellite mode we see an aerial shot of the base.

    So… is that snow in the middle of the desert?

  • Abducted by the Daleks!

    Those readers who have ever wondered in an idle moment how a couple of Daleks would respond to the presence of three naked lesbians romping in their Mothership might recently have found the answer in the shape of a sci-fi smutfest entitled “Abducted by the Daleks”.

    Sadly, however, you’ll have to wonder on because the BBC and the estate of Dalek creator Terry Nation have moved swiftly to pull the plug on the the trundling salt-cellars’ intergalactic rumpy-pumpy.

    The 1,000-disc limited edition DVD recently popped up on eBay but has now been removed at the Corporation’s behest. The blurb stated:

    ABDUCTED BY THE DALEKS: A brand new limited edition release (1000 (numbered) discs). For obvious reasons this is going to become a very collectible item especailly with the resurgence in the interest in Dr.Who. The DVDs will be sold on an incremental basis (eg: Lowest number first). The disc contains a 56 minute main feature plus a 40 minute outake/alternative version plus a trailer.

    Yes yes, but what about the hot Dalek-on-girl-on-girl action? Here’s more:

    The story centers around three sexy young disco babes who have met the mysterious Anna. As they journey through the woods they discuss the legend of The Serial Skinner not knowing that they are already being observed by a more ambitious and ruthless species of Alien…. the daleks!!!

    To cut to the chase – literally – here’s how UK tabloid the Sun describes it: “Dr Who’s foes capture three naked ‘disco babes’ in the 18-rated DVD. They chase the girls around their spaceship and grope them with their plungers.”

    Oh dear, oh dear. The director of Terry Nation’s estate, Tim Hancock, told the paper: “The reason the Daleks are still the most sinister thing in the universe is because they do not make things like porn. They weren’t ever intended to be sexual creatures. It’s simple, Daleks do not do porn.”

    I must see this.

  • The Hour

    I got a call today from the CBC office in Vancouver. I was invited to watch the Hour (George Stroumboulopoulos’ show on the CBC) but with only an hour or so notice (lawl). I went and watched and won a sweater and a mountain bottle. Sadly the sweater is a medium and much too small for me but it looked cool none the less. To my surprise they had a segment with MG in it and Fairuz (family friend) was interviewed.

    CBC - The Hour

    Anyway, George was a really nice and I got free stuff. It was cool to see how tv shows worked, especially when it’s a live show. The interviews are mostly pre-taped as are the segments. But yeah, George would talk to the crowd during the commercials but had to go to Whistler after the show. But that does explain why we had to show up way before the show started, that’s when he talked it up with the audience.

    I want to work at the CBC, heh.

    George Takei reveals he is gay

    In an interview with Frontiers magazine, “Star Trek’s” Mr. Sulu, George Takei, has revealed that he is homosexual. Takei said that his current role as psychologist Martin Dysart in “Equus” inspired him to publicly discuss his sexuality.

    “The world has changed from when I was a young teen feeling ashamed for being gay,” he said. “The issue of gay marriage is now a political issue. That would have been unthinkable when I was young.” The 68 year old actor has been together with his partner, Brad Altman, for 18 years.

  • It’s on!

    The Epic Battle Begins

    So I bought Small Sins. Let’s hope it grows on me.

    I’ve listened to “Small Sins” twice now and like Green Day there’s a recurring theme. Well, who wouldn’t want to sing about girls and heart-break?

    She’s the source” has caught my attention the most. I particularly enjoyed the way he synched multiple instances of his voice and the overall upbeat melody of the track. He uses a similar method in the track, “We Won’t Last the Winter“, though it’s not nearly as upbeat as the previous. At times the band almost sound like “The Polyphonic Spree” but in other instances like in “At Least You Feel Something” he sounds almost like Neil Young. You can hear all of their influences in the music and there seem to be many. It’s a nice mixing pot of old style and originality.

    Its melodic value is high but the one-beat synthesizer hinders its potential. That’s the only problem I have with D’Arcy’s work, it’s synthesized. The lyrics are fantastic but the low-key synth doesn’t do it justice. Though I’m not as an accomplished musician as Thomas D’Arcy is I will suggest using more instruments in the next album. This album’s style contrary to their live performances is bland. Though the songs are good, the album still lacks feeling and charisma. If you want that, check out Thomas’ old band: “The Carnations“.

    This album isn’t for everyone but it’s nice to hear this style of music coming back. It’s worth a buy, I liked it, and it’s certainly good for some downtime or a drive around the town.
