We’re at Pride Toronto 2008, getting tons of crazy video of the various bands, performers, and people on the street. We figured that instead of saving the best for last we’d just give the best there is right up front, and as such, we present to you the Pride Toronto 2008 Ice Cream Puppies.

The Idiotarod is a dog sled race in Toronto. Except instead of sleds the contestants use shopping carts. And instead of dogs the carts are pulled by people. It’s a point to point race, like the original Iditarod, but in this race there’s very little chance of getting bitten by a rabid huskie or mauled by a bear in Alaska. It’s made of pure win.

At one of Tanja’s recent freestyle photo shoots Ryan brought his first batch of Ninja Dolls in the hopes that they would elicit some sort of reaction amongst a few people. The last thing he expected was for a video to be shot, and the related title above also functions as a great summary to its content.

Special thanks to Maggie and Steph, the two most twisted people at the House that Parkdale Built. Possibly the most inebriated as well.
Poster Child is a bitchin’ street artist and promoter of all things nifty that coat our city’s urban landscaping. We recently got in touch with Post and he let us know that he was up to something nifty. On May 2nd Rebecca and Ryan set up shop at Nathan Phillips Square, awaiting the drop. Gotta say that we hope the pieces he followed with in the days afterward fared better!

Poster Child’s Blade Diary
Fight Club made it cool to beat the crap out of your friends all the way back in the 90s, but The Pillow Fight League (PFL) made it cool to for woman to beat the crap out of each other with a couple of thick feather sacks. Given the choice between watching Ed Norton shadow box and watching Mickey Dismantle thwack Eiffel Power with a pillow, I’d choose the latter. If you know what’s good for you, and you don’t want Laina Beaton to tear you in half, you’ll watch our latest vid, chronicling the competition to crown the number one contender to Boozy Suzy’s PFL throne. Watch the vid to find out who comes out on top.
NOTE: Boozy Suzy has since retired, which means the winner of the above matches is in need of an opponent! The next PFL match happens on April 24th at the Gladstone Hotel. If you can’t make it, the PFL is promising to stream the action live over the net.
If you like what you see, please don’t hesitate to send this vid to an awesome friend with those sharing buttons below!

Wintercity 2008 may have happened way back in January but that doesn’t mean that Nights of Fire isn’t relevant still today, particularly if you take into account the horrendous amount of snow the T-Dot received over the weekend. Super-snow-sweater-stopper in hand, we set out to get the story behind the nifty pyrocentric showcase that was Nights of Fire.
