Rants
It was a bad day today
I took some days off this week to try and get my head straight around this whole dad thing. It has not been easy as I am fighting a lot of different kinds of emotion with it right now. On top of that, some money woes have been bothering me for some time, and the … Continue reading
The end of LOST
The End. That was the actual episode name for the very final episode of the infamous television show LOST. An era finally came to a close. In the paragraphs that follow, I’m going to give my own reflection on what the final episode was really about, and why I thought it was indeed the perfect … Continue reading
The Facebook privacy debate
Ok, so time for another rant and this time, Facebook is the topic of choice. Several weeks/months ago, Facebook launched a new service whereby anyone could add a “Like” button to their website and subsequently, you could now “Like” any kind of article out on the net. This information would then show up on your … Continue reading
Apple, Bell, and whatever else I think of
I’ve had a few commentaries I have wanted to make but I never seen to be able to find the time. Actually, it’s not so much that as it is I haven’t been in the mood to write much lately. Regardless, I try to keep up with the news around town and on the web … Continue reading
Some rants, some news, some other stuff

The "plastic bag" con
I did a post on Twitter yesterday about being annoyed at Radio Shack (The Source by Circuit City but it will always be Radio Shack to me) for telling me that if I wanted a bag for my stuff, I’d have to pay 5 cents for the bag. This is an unfortunate trend that we’ve … Continue reading
Social networks and employment
I read an article on Slashdot today which led me to two other articles. The articles were all about how employers are now starting to use the web and social networking sites like Facebook & Twitter to learn more about their employees and more specifically, people they are looking at hiring. There’s an opinion piece … Continue reading
Friday couldn't have come any faster
It has been one of those weeks folks. The world of my work lately has been so hectic and crazy that when I get home and finally get to bed, my head is still racing with thoughts and things for work. I really do feel like it’s been all work and no play this week. … Continue reading
The trouble with newspapers
So, I read this interesting article this week. It was published in a New Brunswick paper and after reading it, I sort of shook my head. That fact is, I can’t get into any details about the article, or really even link to it without opening up the possibility of getting myself into trouble but … Continue reading
