A guy in my management studies class didn't understand why 10,000 grams was 10 kilograms. He took 5 minutes out of class time (approximately costing me $3.13 of my course fees) to argue with the teacher regarding this incredibly perplexing matter. Unfortunately, I couldn't take a picture of this incident, however, I can provide you with other amusing images. This is the 5th installation of my life in iPhone pictures (soon to be iPhone 4 pictures, eek!)

My letter opener is a stoner. Note, this letter opener does not represent the views or opinions of ATB Financial or its staff in any way. The company does not condone the use  of  marijuana or googly eyes.

I can't believe Hayden Panettiere sold out to sell Snookie Bumpits! And with such artistic license taken on her forehead, you think she would never agree to something like this...

Baby goat in a petting zoo in the middle of a mall, you know you're in the pathetic side of town when.. 

Creepiest print ad in the Herald ever, apparently The Joker has been selling condos. 

Mini outhouse lawn ornament in my neighborhood. I was incredibly tempted to put my dog's fresh poop bag in it. 

I nearly broke a neural circuit trying to decide whether it's or its should be placed here. Bus benches should never make you think that hard. For the record: I think its would have been more appropriate. 

Pizza and hot dogs on a stick, Calgary Stampede 2010. 

The majestically captured shot of myself discussing wacky dance moves with Alex Ebert (lead singer- Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeros). The picture was taken just in time for me to close my eyes and Sam's finger to cop a feel on Alex. 

I found NEMO, at Tim Horton's in the middle of a hall way in West Edmonton Mall. 

My summer sans Europe = tropical fish in malls and food on a stick, get me out of this country.

Song about songs week continues, and other belated blog entries.

Day 140/365: The Song is the Single, BARR

The song is the single and the single sucks, it never sounded good, it just sounded bad.

Day 141/365: Your Song, Elton John.
This song is entirely yours! Oh Elton John, and his rosy colored shades.

Day 142/365: Make Your Own Kind Of Music, The Mamas and the Papas.
Sing your own special song, because song week is over. Sing about it.

Day 143/365: 11th Dimension, Julian Casablancas.
My favorite number is 11, me and this song were fated from the start.

Day 144/365: Om Nashi Me, Edward Sharpe and the Magnetc Zeros.
Was amazing live @Osheaga. Talked to Alex Ebert after about his wicked quirky dancing.

Day 145/365: Walk In The Park, Beach House.
Chill and trippy @Osheaga. Drummer is handsome. Singer has giant hair, can't see her face though.

Day 146/365: Toxic, Ingrid Michaelson.
Her last piece @Osheaga, coupled with a hilarously chorographed dance. To think I love her more now!

20 down, 32 to go!

Here lies:

 my 4th week of 365 days of music

A week ago it didn't exist

Day 22/365: She Wants to Move, N.E.R.D

Hadn't moved for 24 hours due to a stomach flu. This was a natural cure, a literal translation of my desires as well. 

Day 23/365: Move, CSS (Cansei de Ser Sexy)

Was considering a theme week when this became my second choice, but alas it is just another coveted dance track. 

Day 24/365: That One Night, The Hunted (Hunter, Jan's old assistant)

You can thank me in about 2 seconds when you press play. I am debating having "The Dinner Party" be my favorite all time Office episode.  With my fair knowledge in the subtly of body language, Jan totally did him, and this is the song for scale.

Day 25/365: Horchata, Vampire Weekend

Don't know what intrigues me more, knowing all of the instruments Vampire Weekend utilizes on a daily basis, or what Horchata tastes like.  This was the night I saw an Iron Chef make some from black rice, yum. 

Day 26/365: Rocket Girl, Doc Walker

One of the only country songs I really love. This is probably one of the most personally meaningful songs I'll ever mention, just pulls on my heart strings/grounded wings.  (Sorry about the Horse story in the video, best audio quality)

Day 27/365: Coffee Girl, The Tragically Hip

Fittingly, I redeemed this song from one of Starbuck's pick of the weeks and it reminds me of my Venti drinking friend. You know the one that knows I am directing this at her. 

Day 28/365: See You Again, Miley Cyrus

The eternal guilty pleasure song, just don't watch the movie. 

Day 29/365: Home, Edward Sharpe and The Magnetic Zeros

Hands down one of the best songs I've heard in a long time. Bet you $5 you'll be singing "I do love my ma and pa" by the second listen.
