There has been a growing excitement around the prospect of a new sporting league where competitors race that very futuristic sounding vehicle, a drone. By drone they mean small remote controlled quadcopters, incredibly agile little aircraft that can move at speeds of over 100 miles and hour. Unlike most racing sports — cars, horses, dog sleds — there is no human onboard the drone. The pilots are...
In Toronto, there are three things to look forward to: extremely freezing temperatures, NBA All-Star Weekend, and a lot of potential love making. With temperatures expecting to dip into the -25 degree zone (post wind chill), it may be more wise to consider spending Valentine’s Day at home this year. As a matter of choice, dating site Match.com indicated that 1 in 4 Torontonians say dinner...

Bathurst is one of the most interesting tracks in the world. It has massive straights, necessitating a top speed-friendly setup — but there are also narrow s-curves over much of the map, undulating up and down with the Australian terrain. It’s an incredibly tricky course, especially for an endurance race like the Bathurst 12 Hour. But, like any challenging course, when someone is really on...

BMW makes a wide range of automobiles. Choosing one is sort of like going to a Chinese restaurant — you pick the number you want and then add some sides. "Give me a Number 2 with a side of M." Ah, excellent choice sir. That’s the M2 coupe. Or perhaps you want a four-door version of a two-door version of a four-door executive sedan. That’ll be the Number 6 with a side of Gran...
Qualcomm has announced a clutch of new processors and chip systems, including a platform dedicated solely to wearables.

If you can think of a challenge, someone has likely already set a world record doing just that. The world’s largest pizza? 13,580 square feet. The fastest 100 meters skateboarded by a dog? 19.65 seconds. The most toilet seats broken by the head in one minute? A head-aching 46. But the fastest log car? Until January 20th that rather unlikely title had yet to be crowned. Now of course, it has, and...
RAMONE is a composition of non-fiction short stories and introspections by Reggie Tan.
Howdy. I first started blogging on RAMONE.ca in 2009, with a dedicated focus on men's lifestyle and stories of inebriation. Shortly after, I was listed as a top Canadian blogger, and over the next decade, I've collaborated with hundreds of notable brands.
Then I grew up. As of late, I've graduated to writing about life experiences, well-researched opinions, and hopefully a few things you might find useful.
This is my memory vault.
About me－Power user of technology. Style guy. Avid gamer. Obsessed with the Cybertruck. Lyrical poet. I like my beats bottom heavy. Madaline is ∞. Only God can judge me. INTP. Birthed in the East Coast of Canada by a pair of cool Filipino parents. Cautiously ADHD. I prefer my whisky neat with a tumbler of room-temp water. Otherwise, a pint of your best draught will do.
I'm a member of the anti-social club. Happily retired from Facebook or Instagram. My verified Twitter account was recently hacked. I do use LinkedIn for business.
