Of all the sites on the internet, this is one.
Here’s a little note for everyone. Today, when you go to Google, and it starts making Pacman noises, don’t freak out. It’s, uh, kinda the 30th anniversary of the release of the Pacman video game, and Google is celebrating by having a little Pacman gamelet on the site. You can even play! Well, sorta. I …

Back a while ago, holy crap that’s almost a month ago, I talked about getting a Trekker. Man, I can’t say enough times how much I love this thing. Due to construction, the usual bus stop I use is out of order. In fact, the entire route to said bus stop is out of order. …

I had some thoughts floating around in my head so thought I’d put them down. I don’t know if this is long enough to lock the VO keys for, but hey, it might surprise me. I’m dangerous when I get going. God, all this bullshit with Stephen Harper suspending parliament just so he can avoid …
I have a small update to the body scanners story. A member of a guide dog email list found out that it is advised that us guide dog handlers get the pat-down because the body-scanners are small, making it hard for man and beast to fit in them, and emit a noise that may bother …
