I took a few days of vacation prior to my actually “work” I had in Orlando. After my work week there, I came home to a full week off work where right now, I am doing as little as I can. As an added bonus, the wife has been gone all week and the kids … Continue reading
Researching Stripper Names
Since March of last year, I have slowly been writing down a bunch of tales about some of the travel I have done over the years. It’s been a project that I pick at from time to time and I have no idea if I will ever try and get it published, but I’ve really … Continue reading
My Shopping List
Sometime quite awhile ago, Tamara bought me the book The Secret. I ended up buying the movie on iTunes and watching it.

I wasn’t really a “hacker” per ce

Looking at pure airline stats
So again I have seen a few people on Facebook bitching about Air Canada and their “horrible” service. Every time I see one of these people I wonder what happened. I’ve been flying with AC for years and have had very few issues with them. I decided to do some digging of my own and … Continue reading

Uber to the Rescue
I have literally been around the world and have found my way to and from where I was going without much difficulty. But today I experienced a bit of panic as I found myself in the middle of a very busy city, in a foreign country, with no way to get back to my hotel. … Continue reading
An Awesome Early Christmas Gift
Tamara decided that since she got an early Christmas gift from me, she’d return the favour. She gave me this a few days ago and man, it is awesome. As you may recall, in August of last year, I went to see Faith No More in Toronto. I chronicled the concert here where I told the … Continue reading
