Lights made an intro to MuchMusic, it’s pretty awesome:

I’m a huge fan of Survivorman, and was pleased to learn that Les Stroud has a new TV series starting next week. It’s called Beyond Survival and debuts on Discovery Channel in the United States. It doesn’t look like it’s available in Canada. Shame. Gizmodo did a recent interview with him talking about his gear and setups during shooting.

Update:

This show is coming to Outdoor Life Network (OLN) on September 5th.

I love Calvin and Hobbes. It’s too bad Bill Watterson moved on to other things, but such is his choice. One of my best gifts was the Complete Calvin and Hobbes – a box set of every strip bound in three volumes.

It’s a private project, and Andrews McMeel Universal, the owners of the Calvin and Hobbes strips have been militant in the past about squashing any usage of the name and imagery on the web. I hope it will continue to exist but AMU have proven themselves to be ruthless. A note has been added to the page about a cease-and-desist letter already on the way.

LIGHTS released a small album called LIGHTS. Acoustic. It features acoustic versions of five songs from her album. Unfortunately, her acoustic version of The Listening was not among them. Available on iTunes.

We need to stop building more of them.
