Welcome to the Blogroll, George Orwell
Do I need to explain why? Seriously, though, I’d have thought he’d have been a little snappier. If he’d had to compete with all the famewhores out there stuffing their blogs with mem...
Brian Atene: the backstory

Big Dee Dee Not Home Free!
Canadians from Port Alberni to the Bay of Fundy have been riveted by the tale of Big Dee Dee, a rare LOUS or Lobster of Unusual Size. Indeed, at a strapping ten kilos and old enough to vote in human e...
The Deadbeat Club
Well, I’ve never been one to dip a toe in when I could plunge over the cliff taking an entire bus with me instead. So…Facebook. MistressCowfish suggested I start a group, because after Fri...

Operation Global Media Domination: the Search Term Situation
Longtime raincoaster readers will fondly recall the old search term roundups of yore. That was before nekkid Britney Spears and Hairy Potter blew all other search terms off the list. Alas, these days ...
New Ingrid Betancourt video!
This newly-released Ingrid Betancourt footage is truly remarkable. In her own words, she explains what it was like to be a prisoner of FARC for all those years, chained in one place, able to make frie...

Quiz: What Condiment Are You?
Well, phonically this goes very well with the previous quiz, although the literal-minded such as myself will note that it’s not really a good match. Still, accurate! You Are Hot Sauce ...

Quiz: the fireworks test
I think I mentioned last year that Vancouver had pot leaf-shaped fireworks on Canada Day. This year I forgot all about the fireworks, so I have no updates for you. Instead, I present this Firework Per...

For some things, my friends, there are no words. The soulless perversions, both polymorphous and (shockingly) amorphous, of the cosmic aberration which is Cthulhu know bondage neither in space nor in ...
Step Away From The Keyboard
Quiz: which utensil are you?
To tell the truth, I was deathly afraid I’d end up something uncool, like a spork. I’d much rather be the slotted spoon you use to mix sugar with absinthe…I actually have one of thos...

Quiz: what kind of bikini are you?
This one lacks accuracy, I must say, since I have virtually none of those traits (except an athleticism that has lain unused and wrapped in tissue paper for the last four years). But every one of my b...
Quiz: which reptile are you?
I was kind of disappointed not to be Godzilla, there’s no denying it, but maybe this quiz is limited to mundane reptiles, as if there is such a thing. As it is, I shall attempt to take pride in ...
