Seen at the CBC Broadcast Centre

Posted on February 27th, 2003 in my ramblings.

I saw the following on a small unassuming sign at the north door of the CBC Broadcast Centre in Toronto: The CBC is looking for people who would like to be in the audience at a special live edition of The National to be aired on March 6, 2003. The show would start at 8pm […]

Newton: five years after

Posted on February 27th, 2003 in newton.

State Of The Newton Address by Victor Rehorst (who is the “king of NewtonTalk”, but doesn’t need to be worshipped) victoratnewtontalk.net – http://www.chuma.org/ Today marks the five year anniversary of the cancellation of the Newton. Around this time in 2001, I wasn’t sure if the Newton and its followers would last the year: Palm and […]

I left my wallet at home today. Need I say more? I have $2.72 on me. Looks like a hot dog lunch for me… Damn I’m hungry.

Now you can, with TVO Kids Shows. I only remeber ever seeing two of these. One was “The Body Works” – gotta love those orange titles. The other was “Read All About It!” That show used to FREAK ME OUT when I was 4. Just thinking about it gives me a little twinge of fear. […]

weekend snow-fest

Posted on February 24th, 2003 in my ramblings.

Weekend began with the two-hour train and bus ride up to Cannington. The family and some friends sat down for a nice dinner for Sandy’s birthday. I’d already given Sandy her birthday present from me, an AVC Soul III MP3/CD player. She got various little things from her mom. I spent most of the weekend […]

Hey, it’s been about a month since I moved this page to using MovableType, and I’ve been pretty happy so far. Looks like it’s time to upgrade to version 2.63, though. Mmm, features and bugfixes.

The Advertising Artwork of Dr. Seuss – Early drawings of Dr. Seuss’ adwork before he wrote children’s books. Some pretty neat stuff.

Today is Sandy’s birthday! She is 24, uh, 21! Yeah! And, I finally finished my homemade digital picture frame on the weekend. 5-minute epoxy is my friend. The frame is on so it looks nice, I just have to figure out how to mount the power switch nicely on the front and cover up some […]

I just spend an hour trying to figure out why my script wasn’t writing any output and not producing any error messages. I left out one tiny little damn statement. Grrrr………

I didn’t go to Sleater-Kinney on Monday. I am somewhat kicking myself for this, and if you’d like to come and give me a swift kick in the ass and yell “WHAT WERE YOU THINKING, MAN!!!!!” then be my guest. But when the friend you were going to go with informs you a hour and […]
