Rubik's Cube Meets Trailer Park Boys
Well, actually the two have nothing to do with each other except for the fact that both were in news articles that caught my attention. First, the Rubik's cube. As a child of the 80s, I can appreciate the fun and torment that was the Rubik's cube. Apparently, this weekend a world record was set when a 20-year old guy solved the cube in 11.3 seconds. Read more details here. What really "puzzles" me about this scenario is the prize he was offered. A Rubik's Snake Puzzle. What did that run them? $20? The guy solves a puzzle that drove people to the brink of insanity or at least to cheating by taking all the stickers off and solving the puzzle that way in record time and they give him another puzzle as a prize? What ever happened to the good old days when useless skills could win you cold hard cash and other valuable prizes (emphasis on valuable)? Anyway, that's all I have to say about that.In other news, the Trailer Park Boys will be hosting the East Coast Music Awards this year, which are being held in none other than my very own home town. Read more about it here. Notice that Jonovision, who was actually born in Charlottetown, is not one of the hosts. What's up with that? Too good for his roots now or did they just not ask him to participate? :o)

No one likes J-Roc.
We should go to the East Coast Music Awards. The Trews AND Matt Mays will be there!
It would be fun. The Maritimers do know how to party!
Am listening to your Matt Mays CD right now actually. not bad... folk, a twang of country sometimes but pretty smooth. Where did you discover him Ryan?
