The past few days I read two very interesting articles. One was called Power Steer and is about the production of beef in the US. It was pretty chilling, but very very well-written. I’ve since been reassured by some people that Canada does not produce beef like this, thankfully. I don’t think I’ll be buying […]

Yesterday was Evil Bus Day. Here’s why: Morning. I’m on the Greyhound to Toronto as usual, trying to get some rest, as usual. As I wake up in the middle of the trip, I look out the window and notice that we’re not on a major highway anymore. Taking a few more seconds, I realize […]

My grandmother’s funeral was on Sunday. There’s a lot of things I could say about the service, but above all I thought that everyone involved did the best job that they could have. My Uncle Adrian and Aunt Annette (the youngest and oldest siblings) did a very touching eulogy. My cousin Kassandra recited a poem […]

Project upgrade-old-mac has just begun, and is almost complete! Now that I can actually see video (thanks to a borrowed Mac video to VGA adaptor), it’s time to make this box not-so-sluggish. I picked up 32MB of RAM for the little pizza box over lunch, which will upgrade it to 40MB. I’m also going to […]

But at least I wrote it all myself, and it doesn’t use insecure protocols to update, like blogger does. I don’t like blogger. Switched to the […]

The Kim Band rocks out hard. Go buy their album. And when the new Sleater-Kinney album comes out later this summer, go buy that too. First week of work was fine. I think I’ve got this train ride down pat now. I really need to work on a CGI so I can update things without […]

when I have access to this from behind the FIREWALL OF DOOM and the PROXY OF NO RETURN, then there’ll be more posting.

Still catching up on some Newtontalk slacking. Yes, I’m actually up at 5:55am to get to work: nice, relaxing train ride ahead (I hope). Newton with a blue backlight. Mmmmmm.

Go listen to The Ents. had a great SONUG meeting today. Exams exams exams.
