My bluetooth headset

Well, my bluetooth headset (the Logitech Mobile Freedom) that I bought about 2 years ago is starting to annoy me, now that I’m using it so frequently. It’s just not that comfortable.

I’m going to start looking for a new one…

Road hockey @ work

So we’ve been talking about playing road hockey during lunch for a few weeks now. Today was the day we were going to do it.

4 of us headed out with a recycling bin and a milk crate (our 2 nets), a tennis ball, and 4 sticks. 2 more joined in about 2-3 minutes later – they had to make it down from their offices.

I figured it would be about 10-minutes until security was able to make it down to tell us to leave. Needless to say, I wasn’t all that far off with my time estimate. Just under 10-minutes, and he was out there. Something about liability and cars. We were playing in the shipping and receiving area.

Anyways, we’re going to try it again on Monday… I’ll keep you posted with what’s going on then…

Spam on the blog

Due to the amount of spam on the blog, I’ve had to take some measures to prevent it (damn you… you bastards!).

The one measure that will affect you directly, is that now you have to setup an account (it’s easy and best of all, it’s FREE) to post messages or replys.

Sorry… but over 300 spam posts a day is a bit much to sort through.

See ya later Ottawa Senators

Well, see ya!

I guess the j.a. Daniel Alfredsson should have kept his beard – maybe it would have brought him and the team luck.

I can’t stand that guy!

Anyways, I know that Lorne must just be killing himself. Since moving to Calgary from Ottawa, he’s been hoping that it would be a Cal/Ott cup final. SUCKER!

The Toronto Maple Leafs

Well, it’s quite upsetting that they didn’t make it to the playoffs. The last 10 games of the season showed what the team was capable of, it’s just a shame that it was too little too late!

Adios Quinn

I’ve been saying for 2 months now that if the Leafs don’t make it to the playoffs this year, that they would dump Pat Quinn. Well, I guess I was right! C’mon… 7-years and not even close to making it to the finals… SEE YA!

Losers since ‘67

George W. Bush – live address to the nation

I want to preface this by saying that I live in Canada
So I was watching TV tonight and was flipping through the channels, and I saw Dubya on the tube. Intrigued, I decided to watch whatever was left of it, which apparently was only about 2 minutes.

In that time, I was offended and somewhat shocked. Jews are quite a minority in the USA, and yet GWB managed to say Christmas and Hanukkah… blah blah…

Anyone else catch the booboo? What about Kwanzaa? Was he scared that he would mispronounce it?

I understand that it might not be a religious observance/holiday, but yet people tend to celebrate/remember the heritage this time of year.

On that note, I’m trying to get people to use this term for the general term. The OC used Chrismica on their show this past week, but they too missed Kwanzaa. So here it is, in all it’s glory…

First ‘real’ snow of the season

11.24.2005
Rants

Well, it was bound to happen eventually. The first snowfall that left snow on the ground.

You know what really bugs me about the winter? Drivers who slow down to a crawl to stare and gawk at something that happened in the other lane. I mean c’mon… is it really necessary to drive 5km/hr just to see that someone drove like an idiot?
