Testing one two three….

I’ll be using my blog for a testing ground for earthpages’ new look. So don’t be surprised if you see an earthpages banner here (for a while). I’ll restore things back to normal once I get the new look down…

Plymouth Scamp by dave_7 via Flickr (about the same condition as mine..)

Last night I dreamed that I was in the US, somewhere sunny like California, and a scruffy looking man stole my car from a parking garage. The funny thing was, it was my beat up Plymouth Scamp (two-door version of the famous Dodge Dart) that I used to drive to university in my 20s.

The parking garage attendant was caring but not that helpful. Instead of closing the exit, he felt it best to let the guy drive out of the garage and get nailed somewhere in the city. When I told him I was from Toronto, I think we both realized the car was a goner. The thief was gone and the local cops couldn’t really help a Canadian.

I have no idea what this dream means. I’m usually pretty good at dream interpretation, but this one has me stumped!

Another blast from the past.  I hope this doesn’t make everyone paranoid! ;-)

In Time

There’s something about digital numbers glowing through the skin that strikes a cord.

Joe Jackson – Right and Wrong

Here’s another one that was pretty big while I was at Trent. I remember seeing the album for the first time at Trent Radio, where I did a show called “From Here to Otanabee” (there’s a river there called the Otanabee, and student residences by the same name). That was a play on “From Here to Eternity.” I don’t think many of my peers got it at the time. My show probably wasn’t that popular (we didn’t have official ratings polls). But I had fun and met some interesting people—fellow DJs, music lovers, dropouts, etc.

Anyhow, Joe Jackson seemed so cool back then. And the album cover for this disc spoke to me. Turns out I won a scholarship to study in India soon after, so I did experience the “big world” first hand (I didn’t travel much as a kid). And now with the internet, the album art seems to have almost foreshadowed things to come.

Right and Wrong… do you know the difference? ;-)

People See Through You

This song was fairly popular when I was an undergraduate student at Trent university. I just watched the video after so many years, and the lyrics make so much more sense to me today.
