Before I start, I’d just like to wish all our American readers a Happy Thanksgiving! There’s nothing more enjoyable than a home cooked meal shared with friends and family, followed by an all out war for shipping deals =) But moving forward…

Today’s been a bit of a breather from what seemed to be the everlasting sorrow of God. I guess it’s to be expected being in Vancouver, but it doesn’t mean that we have to like it. I’m not saying that I don’t enjoy the occasional heavenly cleanse, I mean some of my fondest memories are of rainy days sitting in Gastown enjoying some of the city’s finest soup, but days upon days can even begin to take it’s toll on veteran locals.

But that’s not even the worst of it, I can stand getting wet, I can stand the lack of color….. but I can’t stand people who use umbrellas undercover and think they have the right-of-way.

Last week looked more like a city morgue than a buzzing writing group. While most of us were dealing with the plague, Mateo was off traveling the world and enjoying the sun (he’ll tell you all about it later), Terence was on a much needed holiday and Steph was fighting off all the semi-quasi Jonas brothers looking for a lesson. As such, be on the lookout for things to get ramped up here as we have an exclusive DJ Z-Trip interview on the way along with new fashion columns and a food review or two.

This weekend brought many smiles upon Canadian faces as many a hockey pool started, but more importantly is was one of our closest friend’s birthday.
