Stop the Meter on Your Internet Use!

Recently there's been proposals that would bring our current pricing strategy for Internet use to an end, and would charge users per kilobyte.  This means it would work out to be more money out of our wallets.

The Canadian government needs to step in on this.  Sign the petition below from OpenMedia and make our voices heard.





Also, find them on Facebook and Twitter as well.

2000 Pageviews!

RDBlog just hit 2000 pageviews!  Not bad for 4 months, especially seeing as 2 of those months went without any posts and only now am I settling into a regular schedule!

Thanks guys!  Keep coming back and I'll keep pumping out content!

Metal Monday!

This is the first installment of Metal Mondays!  I'll share music from all different sub-genres of metal, but also some hard rock as well, to help you expand your musical repertoire.  Some you'll like, some you won't.

As it's the first Metal Monday (and our band, TWSS is covering it for our next show... shhh it's a secret!), I'm leading off with what has possibly been the song with the most iconic solo in metal.

Zombie Apocalypse Sunday!

Here's the first installment of Zombie Apocalypse Sundays!

Quick post, rehearsal tonight with That's What She Said followed by a late game of hockey brings a very late night.

MemeDay Wednesday!

The first installment in MemeDay Wednesday here at RDBlog!

I'm going to break it down in different sections and instead of giving you one cool internet meme every Wednesday, I'll give you a bunch of different types!  You'll get a lolcat, a demotivational, a graph, a troll, a dino comic and a photobomb!

The trolling pic is for all my friends studying abroad in Malaysia!  And the photobomb is your's truly and my girlfriend while we were bartending at the Republic of Doyle Season 2 Premiere last week!

New Blogging Schedule/Hashtags

Alright, now that I have some more free time this term, along with the fact that I'm taking an Internet Marketing course, I've developed a new blogging schedule.  I'll still blog randomly as well, but I'm going to stick to a weekly schedule with different themes for different days.  I may add some in the future, but as of right now I have my weekends free.

Twitter hashtags are included :)

#RDBlog - Rain Drizzle Blog
#ZombieNews - Zombie Apocalypse Sundays
#MetalMondays - Metal (and other hard rock) Mondays
#TKTuesdays - Twisted Knickers Tuesdays
#MemeDay - Internet Meme Wednesdays


Starting tomorrow, with my first MemeDay Wednesday!

Top 10 Things NOT to Do in A Zombie Apocalypse

With Halloween just behind us and a recent debate about undead zombies vs diseased zombies with a friend (Devon Seymour), I was inspired to right a top 10 list for things not to do, because everyone has written a guide on what to do.

Hit the jump for the top 10 fatal mistakes you shouldn't make in the even of a zombie apocalypse.

My New Band; That's What She Said

Hey guys, popped on to let you know about the new band we've started, That's What She Said!

Hurricane Igor Slams Newfoundland

Been a little out of commission due to work and the recent hurricane, Igor, that slammed into St. John's, Newfoundland last week.

Hit the jump for some great shots from one of my friends who is a photographer here in St. John's, Sandra Lee Elford.

Mike Portnoy of Dream Theater leaves the band

This is devastating news as a Dream Theater fan AND as a Portnoy fan.
He says it's on good terms... and it's something he never wanted to do... I know he was touring/recording with Avenged Sevenfold this year as well, but I didn't think this would be the result.

Hit the jump for the full statement, from Portnoy's Facebook page in a note he wrote.
