I can tell you exercise is important for mental health
so get into it
plus push ups are rad.
(note a 70 year old man is expected to beat any women
in a push up contest)

Bad at War, good with Animals

Do you remember the first place you ever lived after moving out of mum and dad house?
I bet you did not share house with 32 some cats and a French University professor.

Pierre and his famous cat house are located on the edge of Wortly Village
(London, Ontario's babe district)
This is where I found my first independent living residents some odd years ago. My section of the house held 6 cats.

The house is sectioned of into 4 apartments.
With all the cats divided accordingly.
The outside is built much like a zoo,
A habitat fit for cats.
Pierre, a bachelor bought the house around 9 years ago.
Because he had taken upon himself to start rescuing stray cats.

As his love and passion for the care of animals and their rights.
Is one of the most important parts of his life.
So he bought a house and filled it with tenants and cats.
And set up one of the worlds finest cat sanctuaries.

Pierre is now retired and spends his time looking after his cats.
Riding his bike around and check his stocks on TV.
I myself was lucky enough to be involved on a lot of different construction
and renovation of this crazy house.

These picture were taken when I visited Pierre earlier this month.
He is still holding it down with a current number of 46 cats.

BM, What A dude

Can't get women?
Be more like Bill Murrary
In a time with few quality male role models
Bill is still there for us.

Jesse got so pumped after watching a BM movie
He shaved his head and started carving himself.

Addiction, BABY

Downtown is pretty slow tonight.
I am sick and stuck at work.
So I will make everyone else sick with me.
This is not one of my clients.
Just some pic I found.
But it is something see lots of.
but hey.
I have 4 day weekends.
my throat is closing.
maybe I was stung by bees.

KEEPING PRINTED ZINES ALIVE

This here is Steve.
He does almost single handedly writes and distributes
What may be the best current hardcore zine.
In north America.
Me and Steve use to be enemies.
He wrote an article about about how my lame ideas were wrecking hardcore.
But we made up once it was established I could beat the snot out of him,
one handed.
Now I jock his zine and the dude as hard as hell.
His zine is stand up and he is not afraid to stay what he thinks.
Even though he is most often right and seriously pisses people off.
Plus he puts a million hours unpaid into it.
Just because he loves it.

BANE VS BATMAN

The ultimate show down.
So I called superhero dress up themed show.
And since everyone is lames or cowards.
About 5 of us dressed up.
But those of us who did had a million times more fun.
The show rad, despite the horrible promotion.
and huge stage.
Verse, Cursed and Bane all played great sets.

Jesse is Professor X and I have huge shoulders.

CAN YOU REMEMBER WHEN?

So since dressing up for shows
makes them 100 times more fun
We went as 90"s hardcore.
Needless to say 90% of everyone did not get it.
regardless the show ripped.
and we looked good.

HUGE X's

head and wrist bands, beaded necklace

jerseys, and backpacks.

BLACKLISTED

Jesse said my original post about blacklisted
was livejournal type bullshit.
so I am re-doing it.
And it turns out we have reall shots from the set.
But I'm not in them so who really cares.
The show was amazing.
Blacklisted both killed and destroyed.
This dude is always smiling.
You could see it if the picture was not so dark.

Title Belt House

So the Terrordome died,
What did I do?
I took back the Title.
Why is it called the Title belt?
Because that's what I hold.
And who is going to take it from me?

We are the unit on the top.

This is the view off our back stairs. Check the mountains.
Clark park is also in sight.

BON'S OFF BROADWAY

Hands down the best $2.89 (wtax) breakfast on Earth.
this place kept me alive.
At one many point in time
I found myself eatting here everyday.
One of the best place for bro downs

Walking up to Bon's you will find it full of happy people.
Eating one of the best breakfasts of their lives.

Were we are waiting to get our food.

The Legend himself. Yes there really is a Bon.
Bon made his resurtant famous by scaring off a robber.
Story goes, some guy came in and tried to rob him.
Bon grabs a knife and says
"If you want to rob me, you have to kill me"
and chased the bastard out.
Bon is a man amoung men,
If your ever in Vancouver.
