Dis 'n dat 

Just some random stuff surfing around the 'net this weekend --

- Pluming the depths of MySpace, I rediscovered "The Gleib" -- aka Ben Gleib (name seems shorter than I remember). Anyway, The Gleib is a comedian and is responsible of dispelling two beliefs that I've held for a while -- that Screech from "Saved by the Bell" is funny and that dating shows are real. Sadly, Screech (Dustin Diamond) was dreadful live a few years back and "Blind Date" seems capable of pulling fast ones over its audience.

- Saturday Night Live hasn't been super funny this season. I don't know why exactly. Interesting seeing Catherine Zeta Jones sing (and wondering how different she looks "live"), but it wasn't very funny. One positive note is Tina Fey's return to Weekend Update after becoming a mother. I got some belly laughs over some of the jokes there.

- If you're looking for some interesting stuff to watch or listen to, there's ZeD from the Canadian Broadcasting Corp. It's a combination TV show/Web site featuring a mix of short films, musical performances and trippy stuff.

- While I've previously plugged CBC Radio 3's podcast, I don't know if I mentioned their magazine. It features lots of music and articles about culture and music in a solid Shockwave presentation. Hours of fun listening and browsing.
