Went to Bistro 112

Really bad chairs, great coffee and free wireless. Nice atmosphere and the cafe has seen better days, but it is still inviting with a good homey feel, and best of all, the place is full of computer geeks.

Is life great or what.

Be happy

Ps. I should put some pics on Flickr

Free wireless hotspots in Edmonton (and reviews)

Filed under: Free Wireless in Edmonton Ab. Ca — admin @ 11:55 am

Hi everyone;

A few months ago I did a review of “Jefferies Cafe” in one of my podcasts. Well I became burnt out and so I decided to shut down my podcasts for a while and do my reviews on my blog. This will only be a short review as I will do a longer one the next time that I am there. This is one of those places that is so fun, that it desearves many return trips.

anyhoo, Jeffrey’s at9640 142 Street is this awsome little place, hard to find, but worth it. not only does it have free wireless, but thtere is a PC set up in case you don’t have your laptop with you. The food and atmosphere is great, but make sure that your battery is charged up as there aren’t really any easily acessable plugins.

Don’t forget to tell Jeffrey that you heard about his place from me, it will make him feel good and, well, I might get some free coffee.

Keep smiling and enjoy

I have a Garmin Nuvi 250 so I don’t get lost as often, andso I thought that I would offer the wireless POIs (in Edmonton) as a download. Well once I learn how.

I ate my cousin’s teeth

Filed under: Uncategorized — admin @ 10:50 am

Yes, well I am as I write this.

You see as you might know I am very anti social and have decided to change that. I am stuck in the big city and I might as well start building a life and getting used to this place (and making the best of it).

I have been single and friendless out of spite for my situation (excuse the residule bitterness) for nine years, well 8 years and nine months, soI am getting back into life. Letting people in, trusting people and maybe in time, dating.

I even stopped giving and accepting guifts, well I turned all guifts over to the poor, anyway, yesterday one of the cooks at my icky and temporary job (check out my film “Tedium” on viddler.com, search Tedium or me scruffymedia) offered me a custom made meal instead of the (usually good) staff food. Well, I gratiously acceped it because it is time for me to learn to trust again. Now keep in mind that I am one of those oddballs who dosen’t like there food touched and prefers to make it myself; ya it is wierd, but distrust can be a lonely place.

Anyway, back to the teeth. 3 or 4 years ago my cousin (one of the few people that I willingly let into my life) sent me these chocolate teeth with a note saying “Bite me before I bite you”.

Now that I am letting the sun back into my life I will eat my cousin’s teeth.

Not as exiting as the headline, well maybe I should work for the Enquirer (Ha Ha)

Ps. I have a picture of the teeth in question on Flickr, but I am unsure how to use Flicker, but I am (of course) scruffymedia.

bye

Tedium

Filed under: Uncategorized — admin @ 3:19 pm

Hi, Tedium is complete and up on Viddler (viddler.com),  just search Tedium, or user scruffymedia. I decided to put it up and just leave it alone, however as I found out, the longer a project, the harder it is to stop tweeking. It comes in at just over 40 minits.

I hope that you will enjoy this look into my world, however I don’t see anyone getting through it, as it is as the title implies, sheer tedium, much as my day at work.

My next film will be “Fat Man and Little Tub”, shorter, but just as odd. It will have nudity, so be prepaired.

I am about to start pre production on “No Wet Garbage Please”, a film about maturbation.

See everyone latter and have a groovey new year!

Glenn
