Today I successfully completed the month of April, writing something for the site every single day. I’ll admit that not every post was a thought-provoking, intellectually stimulating piece, but it was there. This is the first month since I began writing in August of last year that I’ve accomplished that. January I came close, missing […]

Since I left the newspaper and the amazing camera that I carried around for 17 months, I’ve taken noticeably fewer pictures. Noticeably as in 100 pictures in all of 2006 (and 55 are on the cameraphone) against 8,052 in the 12 months prior. I got my old camera out yesterday to take with me to […]

I am shocked when people are unfamiliar with the concept of a cover letter. It is a letter that accompanies your resume and any other application documents you have sent and introduces you as a small demonstration of your written communication capabilities. Working in a field that requires a lot of communication, maybe I was […]

Because I like to pretend my finger is on the pulse of technology and specifically new web applications, I’ve known about Pandora for some time now. I didn’t check it out because it solved a problem I didn’t have - namely finding new music. I already had such a deluge of suggestions and recommendations from […]

Wes and I shouted obscenities at each other as we watched the first and second overtimes of the Edmonton - Detroit game tonight. This coincides with the called-off goal about 15 minutes into the first OT.
Editor’s Note: Lots of cursing ahead. Hey, it’s hockey. Get over it or skip past.

A baseball is the most stress-relieving device I have ever found. I got to throw with Chris Biggs today during a beautiful afternoon, and Sam & Cristian and I played wiffleball at dusk. Doesn’t matter what’s going on, hurling that baseball just takes the emotions away.
Also, TESTUDiO is finally up. It’s in very early […]

Emma and I caught up on Hour 18 of 24 this weekend, but I missed a subtle detail that only DCeiver catches. Look at this screenshot closely and see if you recognize it.

I got an email today from Poor University, offering a little bit of info on their site. It’s a price aggregator for college students and the things they usually buy. It looks fairly interesting and if it works well for me, I’ll let you know.
