It’s the Game Myst, IRL

May 30 2011

Do you remember the computer game Myst?

It was a big deal game… oh wait wait…. it was a game changer ahahaha.

But it was, it propelled CD-ROM sales. It also really got under my skin, and remains to this day one of the few games I’ve bothered to complete.

Technically this is a water treatment plant… that washes half of Toronto’s water daily!

Did you know Toronto’s tap water is some of the best in the world? Vancouver’s is really good too.

This weekend was Doors Open Toronto, and this is the RC Harris Water Treatment Plant.

It’s neeeever open to the public (or blog girls with big smiles) … that’s why I went. Along with the whole city; parking took forEVER.

Designed in 1929 and opened in 1941, it’s applauded as Toronto’s “supreme masterwork of Art Deco building”. So beautiful, eh?!

This place is special, I’m telling you.  Go for a walk there if you ever can.

I’ve blogged about this place many times, and I filmed the episode Exploring Canadian Blogging here.

And this other time I filmed myself skipping around here in a tutu, ha.

Nice to Meet You, RightSleeve

May 14 2011

We met Thursday night at your party where you’d also invited a bunch of my old Twitter friends AND gave me an umbrella as tall as I am, thank you!

Internet – RIGHTSLEEVE is “a promotional design agency”, the print your name on things. I pawed all their stuff, and you can feel good about trusting them to put your name on somthing; their level of quality will match yours.

I’d love to have KeriBlog everything. Specifically any of these car items, this toaster using my CDN Explorer logo, or a plain black hat with KeriBlog.com written in tiny letters subtlety. Everyone would want one of those.

I know you know these two!  Casie Stewart and Shawn Hawaii, who were continuing their ongoing hipster joke that they have a baby named Triangle ahahaha, that’s funny.

Bahaha, ya I did:

That’s Phil, Ben and RIGHTSLEEVE owner Mark doing the punching.

Always good seeing you Ben!  Dude – remember when you tasked me with writing 100 words on IPs, when I was training in writing 100 words, before I went to the Olympics and wrote 100 words daily for Vancouver 24 hours?

I just did, click here to read it.

I love when people pick me up when they hug me, Rannie did too outside, did you ever see that episode we did together? Hang on…. tada!

Exploring Canadian Blogging

I have a thing for this place, the RC Harris Water Treatment Plant.

Go if you can, it’s looks just like the video game Myst.
