weekend
Monday, January 5th, 2009Not the most amazing weekend, but sometimes, especially after holidays, uneventful is good. Friday night I had sometime to myself as the wife and kids went to a lights display. So I got up to some good Shaun White snowboarding action. I’m getting up to the point where the missions are harder to complete and [...]
Shaun White Snowboarding
Friday, January 2nd, 2009I received Shawn White Snowboarding for Wii for Christmas and finally got around to playing it. Its a fun game but I have to say, playing it with the controller sucks compared to playing it on the Wii fit board. Using the board makes it so much more fun and is now my favorite game [...]
chance
Friday, January 2nd, 2009I saw this, today and thought it was quite amazing. its scary how many near misses there can be.
holidays
Tuesday, December 30th, 2008these holidays are really getting to my system. I don’t know which day it is and I’m extremely tired when I wake up. I’ll be happy to get back on a schedule after all this is over.
I went skating this weekend.
Monday, December 29th, 2008For the first time in probably 8 years I went ice skating yesterday. I had to use rented skates because my last ones were converted into a mouse house in my shed last year. (I really need to buy a new pair). We went to the Southlands mall where we were told they had put [...]
I want my global warming
Monday, December 22nd, 2008Where is all this global warming I keep hearing about. I could use some now. Its flipping freezing in this country. This is what I left Canada for.
dentist
Wednesday, December 17th, 2008So I made a dentist appointment last week. Come in for a check up and cleaning that is way over due. Of course after I made the appointment, about 3 days later I started getting a tooth ache. Well ffwd a little and I go in and low and behold I need a root canal. [...]
stupid is as stupid does
Sunday, December 14th, 2008Well as for being stupid and not careful I think I win the prize. I was putting up xmas lights today. And I kept thinking all week that I should do this but I should do it only when the wife was home in case something happened. Then I convinced myself that I’ve been on [...]
Dish Network and Turbo HD
Saturday, December 13th, 2008Well I must say I’m very happy with Dish Network and Turbo HD. The receiver is top notch and responds very quickly. The DVR portion of the receiver is very easy to use and to configure and I prefer it over tivo in many ways. The benefits are mostly small little things but they fix [...]
auto bailout
Friday, December 12th, 2008I’m so happy that the auto bailout failed. Especially since it hinged on a concession by the UAW and they refused to take the concession and that killed it. That just goes to say they don’t care about the companies only that they can stay in power. Let the auto companies file for bankrupcy break [...]
