I took Robyn and her UW Eng buddy Myles to West Ed on Saturday. When I told them the mall was massive, apparently they still weren’t prepared for the sheer size… It took us near 5 hours to complete the circuit..
and half way there I realize I forgot my list of phone numbers of friends in Edmonton… I need a crackberry

When I worked at Staples, quite often people running online businesses would come in and attempt to recruit Staples employees. I talked to a few of these in my time as a computer tech, took a few cards. I even had a really good chat with one of them over coffee one day.
It was about a year ago when I received a phone call from one of them, asking if I was interested. Frankly I wasn’t all that impressed with him when he came into the store, so I politely told him that I was not interested and figured he’d leave it at that. Apparently, he wanted to attract me by being a jackass.

These two articles caught my eye this morning. Let’s see if you can spot the policy contradiction…
Tories to roll out renewable fuel plan
Harper’s new black SUV
Harper has a new 320-horsepower V8 Chevrolet Tahoe. According to GM Canada, L / 100km (city / hwy): 2WD 15.0 / 10.1, 4WD: 15.4 / 10.4.
You know, and if Harper wanted an SUV, that’s fine. But there’s two offhand I can think of that are at least hybrids. Now, the Ford Escape has only 133 horsepower, but gets 7.5 L/100km highway (7.1 city). That’s half of the Tahoe’s mileage in the city. The Toyota Highlander Hybrid, on the other hand (and this is the SUV I’d want), has 268 horses and 7.5 L/100km
and they’re both available in “I-want-to-look-like-the-US-prez-Black”

E3 this year would be absolutely spectacular. We have the release of 3 next-gen consoles this year, most notably (at least in my mind) is the Nintendo Wii. Every day there is more and more news about what’s coming out, what the controller is really like, etc.
Four words say it all: Super Smash Brothers Brawl
