Fall in Stanley Park Coriolistic Anachronisms - A Vancouver Blog

Hi, I'm your friendly Coriolibot (as in "ro-bot").

It would seem Vince (shame on him) hasn't posted a fresh entry in a couple of days, so I am here to keep you entertained no matter what!

The post below is a random entry that we hope you haven't read before. Regular current entries follow. Enjoy, and come back soon for brand new posts!

Note: this random entry is served on a per-visit basis and will change if you reload the page. It will also not show up on regular RSS, Feedburner and Twitter feeds.

   Vintage! This is a random post. The year was 2005...

Choosing a new blog name

)arrow I’ll make this a sticky post for a while, not having received enough opinions about the supremely essential issue of this blog’s name. I’m considering renaming this fine piece of unnecessary litterature from The Portal to either Godspeed (see a few entries below) or the newcomer The Chronicles of Vinnick, which hopefully sounds so completely pompous that it’ll be funny. And of course having seen the movie helps too ;-)

Comments and suggestions welcome!

    « Well I kinda like « The Bittersweet... » myself, but I guess that means none of my suggestions really sit too well with you... »

    « You’re wrong there. I like both. I was just trying to exercise my imagination. Eso dicho, what’s « Vinnick » for ? »

    « Like I said, you’d have to have seen the movie. The Chronicles of Riddick, sci-fi, Vin Diesel, not your kind of thing... ;-) »

Fall in Stanley Park

I believe Stanley Park no longer needs a proper introduction on this blog. It’s my favorite downtown playground, two blocks from home, a world of its own, Vince’s wonderland, my own tiramisu spot.

After having strolled down the avenues of Central Park last month with Marie as the prettiest guide ever, this week it was my turn to lead us around the Seawall, through the many trails and back out to civilization. Stanley Park, a little bigger, feels more deserted than its New York cousin. The chickadees were shy and we didn’t spot a single harbour seal. The leaves, however, were at the peak of their seasonal glory...

    « Wow, these are stunning!!! Hmm, more screen-licking. Sweet, a little tart, some bitterness and then a velvetty mouthfeel?

    I really want to come back to wait for the chickadees and that crazy red squirrel who moved via paw-jets... »

    « Paw-jets, awesome, that’s what I like about you, you’re a geek. ;-)) »
