Narnia movies pay tribute to Python?

We’re just sitting on the couch watching The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe, and I heard a line I hadn’t heard before. Just before the children go over the falls, Peter is holding out his new sword towards the wolf captain of the secret police. Susan says to him, “Just because a man in [...]
I eat plenty of eggs

I recently found out that a friend of mine doesn’t eat eggs. He’s not allergic to them, it’s not that he doesn’t like them. He just doesn’t eat them. He couldn’t fathom how I would need an eighteen-egg carton from the store. Easy, one for me, one for Jenn, every morning. That’s fourteen in a [...]
CBC Radio is no.1 in my books
And apparently, CBC Radio is no. 1 in the books of a majority of Thunder Bay radio listeners too. Congrats CBC Radio people! Now, driving to work this morning (and not listening to any radio) I was wondering why. Well, it could be the thoughtful programing and charming on air talent. It could also be [...]

Google Earth 3D Layer

Over this past fall, I’ve submitted a few of my Sketch-Up models to Google Earth. I’ve started modeling Thunder Bay landmarks, and so far seven have been accepted into the 3D layer of Google Earth. I’ve also managed to interest at least one friend into building Thunder Bay buildings and successfully submitting to Google Earth. [...]
It’s an online Christmas this year

A couple years ago, all the Christmas presents that I was responsible for buying I bought online. It was a merry Christmas for me and the gifts were very well received too. I didn’t plan for it, but I hope this year will be a merry Christmas too–if you know what I mean. Have you [...]
It’s been a while
It’s been over a year since I’ve blogged regularly. It’s my goal to change that, but as I can’t go back in time (yet) I’ve decided to just start up again. The plan is to make at least three posts during the regular week and once on the weekend. I’d also like to write posts [...]
The Autumn Migration Begins

Remember back in January I was talking about switching from Blogger to another blog platform? I was thinking of Blosxom at the time, but that never happened. Well, the migration is now beginning. But I’m switching to WordPress. You can check it out now if you’d like to, as I’m building it. In the mean [...]
Two Things I Got (am Getting)

Jenn and I were in Intercity Mall on Thursday night and walking by the Gap, I couldn’t help but notice their “try on a pair of jeans, get a free iTunes download” promotion. So, we each tried on some jeans and each got a free download. I haven’t decided what to get yet though. The [...]
More Flipper Fun

So, I enjoyed seeing Flipper last night. They played a bunch of tunes from their upcoming CD. I was talking to my uncle (sort of) Brian after the show—he’s in the band—and he told me that they were still looking for a cover for the CD and asked me to send them some samples. So, [...]
