Piggy's specs were nicked at: 5:38 p.m.

ME: *Listening to Bobcaygeon by the Tragically Hip.*

MOM: "You know, your older brother was concieved in Bobcaygeon."

ME: *Pushes 'Stop,' annihilates the song off the Playlist, never thinks of Bobcaygeon again, vows to stay away from cottage country.*

I recieved an unexpected GST refund for $213. My phone bill is up to $210. So I'm doing the logical thing and spending the refund on Metroid Prime.

Don't worry, I have some pennies at the bottom of my pocket to throw to the slavering dogs at Bell. It'll hold 'em off for a while longer.

Dang Lex, that's some funky dream. I can't remember exactly what I dreamed last night, except it was some sort of uplifting music video that pounded out St. Elmo's Fire in the background. I love music video dreams. I had one other some years ago, set to Steve Earl's Copperhead Road. Every last lyric was included, but I'd never heard the song until the dream. Nutso.

Speaking of music, I recently got a copy of U2's new Best of 1990, 2000 Best of Zooropa and Pop So You Don't Have To Bother Buying Either Album. Since U2's music is very shopper-safe and cool at the same time, it frequently ends up being thumped throughout the millions of shoestores in the mall. Strange thing is that I'm not hearing the new Best Of album ... rather, everyone's playing Best of 1980, 1990 Best of Rattle and Hum So You Don't Have To Waste Your Money On A Lot of Bad Covers. And I mean a lot of stores are playing it. I heard New Year's Day four times last Monday alone.

But I think some stores are wising up and realizing they have the wrong CD in their tray. Oopsie.

As for the album itself, 'tis quite fine. Except for one thing. Where the hell is The Fly? It's such a wholesome, Satanically schitzophrenic song. When Bono gets into a character and forgets about the world's woes for four minutes and twenty-eight seconds, the results simply rock.

Hey Trip Through Your Wires fans, when I say that the new chapters are coming up, I mean it this time! I'm planning on releasing two for all the good boys and girls who put up with my fucking shit.

"And to all those opposed!...Hmm...well..."
