vagabondscrawl Books
Okay, I swear I won’t just turn this blog into a Read the Tao of Stieb! blog, but here’s another pointer to them because they’re talking about someone I know, Gareth Wheeler. I went to JSkool with him. Of course this note isn’t very flattering but still. I know people that are Torontocentric and on [...]
I read a book by a couple of Sean’s profs today. The book was published by a little Winnipeg press so I can’t give you an Amazon link. It’s called Social Murder and has a big ol’ bowl of tomato soup on the cover, which I assume is supposed to be blood, though it may [...]
RAW Documentary - Guerrilla Words
This is my radio documentary. Listen. I liked it.
I am done done done. Going to TO for a baseball game this weekend, then to Montreal next weekend then back to Peg City. Good times.
Oh, and THIS is not a radio blooper reel.
Done one presentation today. One more to go. Then do my last interview for my radio documentary. Then get the doc approved. Then finish mixing it. Then prepare an hour-long presentation on Lebanese media. Then write a paper on same.
And somewhere in there I want to see Hellboy.
RAW Story - Planet(oid) Sedna
This was the last story idea I had to come up with for my degree! No more crushing searches for newsy inspiration, until I someday work for a living.

This story went up yesterday, but I forgot to blog it. [...]
. . . when I’m not pissing away whole days reading that is. RAW Radio is the site where all of our radio work this term goes. My contributions so far have been on the webbifying of things, but next week I’ll be doing a news story. I’m also plugging along at my [...]
The first week and a bit (half?) of my last chunk of school has been very relaxing. I’ve fixed up my paper to get out of the 0 incident, and it was ridiculous how little I had to do. John Stackhouse (the foreign editor from the Globe & Mail) gave our international reporting [...]
My internship at CBC’s Content Factory is more than half over. I was on morning shows across the country this morning asking people about Conrad Black. One of the questions was “Are Conrad Black’s personal assets worth more or less than the GDP of Djibouti?” Sadly, no one countered with “The city [...]
