Noisome Tentacles

November 26, 2008

It’s been a long time since I did any squidblogging (so long, I don’t even have the squidblog anymore) but here are a couple of links that I found via the always tentacular Pharyngula:

Squid hats with feeding tentacle mittens!

Night of the Cephalopods, a lovely little Lovecraftian video game made by Spooky Squid Games right here in Toronto!

Snow Ride!

November 21, 2008

No way was I going to share the road (on a bike or in a car) with Toronto drivers on the first snow day of the winter, so I rode in the park and at the water factory. Fun, but I was hoping it would be another month before I got to do this.

I almost crashed twice but only actually crashed once, when the wheel caught on the edge of the invisible bikepath.

dirt roads are the best roads

November 4, 2008

I spent too much of the early fall waiting on delivery and building up the new ‘cross bike, so instead of writing about it I’m riding it as much as I can before winter comes. The other weekend (like most autumn weekends) I rode out to the lighthouse to watch the waves and try out my new rain shell. It was stormy and sunny and windy and wavy which is just how I like it this time of year.
