YorkTube

Have you been to youtube.com/yorkrules lately? If you have, you’ll know that it has absolutely nothing to do with me. I wrote a message to my 56-year-old fellow Canadian requesting a trade of user registrations, but have not yet received a reply (perhaps because this interloping yorkrules last logged on many months ago, just long enough to register youtube.com/yorkrules.)

Of course, I know it’s my own damned fault for not having acted quicker (Is facebook.com/yorkrules still available?), so I haven’t given up on my YouTube presence. Visit youtube.com/york04 (What the hell does ‘04′ mean?!) to see the new yorkrules channel. Watch the videos, rate them highly, and help me grow my typically dismissive, occasionally amused, and generally disinterested audience!

On the road.Uncle Walter introduced me to motorcycles. It was 1981, I was 6, and my mom’s younger brother was taking me on a daylong tour of his native British Columbia, Canada. My legs hung well above the rear foot pegs, so my tiny arms clung desperately to my uncle’s jacket from … (read more)

Technologie Macht Frei

Item: Technologie Macht Frei 3″ x 5″ Sticker

Price: $2.99

Buy it: UNAVAILABLE

Shortly after I posted the Technologie Macht Frei sticker design to my CafePress shop, I was informed via e-mail that it infringed upon trade dress rights, and therefore was not allowed. Who’s rights, I replied: the Apple iPod’s or the Nazi Party’s? I was disappointed that the response was Apple. It would have been much more fascinating to learn that someone out there was concerned about the Third Reich’s intellectual property.
