Hello world... A rather famous phrase, one created millions of times over by eager computer geeks learning their first block of code since before Pac Man and even probably before Space Invaders. Being a child of the seventies, it is inevitable that I would spend the budding years of my adulthood immersed in the internet after hanging up my Atari gaming console forever. Over the years the internet has become both part of my life professionally and socially so dang if I haven’t gotten good at it! Below is my Pop Culture List for the month of April.
  1. Movie of the Month - A Man Apart

    This movie features Larenz Tate and Vin Diesel as Sean Vetter, a DEA agent who is hell bent on revenge after his wife is murdered. If you enjoyed Vin Diesel as Xander Cage in XXX then this movie should prove to be a much needed time waster as we wait patiently for Matrix, X-Men and Hulk movies. The website URL is http://www.amanapartmovie.com/flash/index.html.

  2. Forgotten Movie of the Month - Duel

    This movie is a forgotten classic by Steven Spielberg and stars Dennis Weaver as an average business man who is pursued by a truck driver down a dusty desert road. The movie is in my opinion brilliant and proves why Spielberg is my favourite director of all time. Please go to http://www.imbd.com for more information. It’s definitely worth renting!

  3. Band of the Month – Godsmack

    Godsmack..Arguably my third favourite band of all time after Led Zeppelin and Metallica. They will be releasing their new album, Faceless, on April 8, 2003. Their music is heavy and not for Britney fans. I’ve heard some samples off the album and like Master of Puppets by Metallica, Godsmack is showing that the third album is the charm. The band’s website is http://www.godsmack.com.

  4. Just Freakishly Weird Article of the Month – Keyboard Culture Bet you never wanted to know what was inside your keyboard and after reading this article you will wish you were never tempted to read it..keyboard cooties..mmm yummay! Go to http://abcnews.go.com/sections/scitech/TechTV/techtv_KeyboardCooties030326.html if you dare, it’s kind of disgusting.

  5. Website of the Month - Eduardo de Felipe

    This is a site designed and owned by my mentor Eduardo de Felipe. Once you view his site, you will, like me, feel shame at your meagre and average design skills. He is an amazing person and a creative genius. Once you view his site you’ll be inspired to be a better designer and person. I love this guy!

  6. Just Because Website of the Month – BloodyFingerMail.com

    *lol* You have to just give it a go! Do me proud and don’t give into your temptation to write REDRUM. *eg* It’s hilarious!

    Over the coming months I’ll be bringing you more information on hidden gems and not so hidden gems I’ve found on the internet. You won’t get to see any of my secret stash just because I need to keep my inspirational sites a secret, muhar! If you have any suggestions, rants, non-sequiters, jokes or sites to share with me, feel free to email me at pixelated@telus.net. Until then..GO CANUCKS GO!!
