- Day 50: The halfway update
It's day 50 of my 100-day tour across Canada and I'm pretty exhausted.
Only two days have been above 20 degrees (both in Prince George).
It snowed twice.
I've already driven 13,000 kms.
I had my side view mirror licked by an elk.
Two grizzly bears walked in front & back of my ride.
I wouldn't trade the trip for anything.

- Cameo in Art of Fresh video
I was in Toronto for Easter weekend 2007, and dropped by Art of Fresh's video shoot for 'Get Free.' Watch for me at "poof" and breaking out the dance moves at the end.
Check out the June Newsletter where I recap my favourite videos that I've had cameo appearances in.
The Super Dude Shirts are sold out! I apologize to those I disappointed. The shirts didn't sell nearly this quickly when I did the first run back in 2003 (2 years vs 3 weeks). There are no plans to make more at this time.

- My old Music Videos on YouTube & some thoughts...
When I started out in 1999 my focus was on having fun, which I accomplished while garnering considerable accolades as Pimp Tea (formerly PIMP-T). However, the maturity gained from seven years of writing, performing and simply living life, has led to my desire to move away from the "pimp" persona.
So, I'd like to introduce, Brockway Biggs and welcome you to this site, as I take yet another step along my artistic path.
