O.U.C.H. 2k6

This weekend was O.U.C.H 2k6 - Ontario University Competition for Hip-Hop. UW hosted and the team came in second (to McMaster). I hear is was off the heezy. I missed it because I was volunteering, but it was so worth driving up for Bomber.

Here are those crazy hip-hoppahs.

Deal Or No Deal Casting Application

Deal Or No Deal is coming to Canada and you can apply to be on the show online. Boy is that a long application…

Radio that gets Chris through the day

One of the few nice things about being stuck in traffic congestion every single time I drive home after work is CBC Radio 1. I usually get to listen to an hourish of As it Happens and the World at 6. I swear, that and the Current each morning is super duper great.

Thank you CBC Radio for making incredibly frustrating traffic somewhat bearable.

Last week (or the week before? I’ve been busy), As it Happens featured a geographic feature located in Alberta using Google Earth that honestly looks like a native American wearing a headress and listening to an iPod. I kid you not.

Alberta’s Aztec Rocker?

Cliff

Listeners wrote and called in to suggest a name for this feature. AIH has picked a shortlist and will put it to council and then to the Alberta provincial government who could make it official. I’m gunning for ‘Cliff’.
