I noticed that Silverstr woke up feeling great and I thought of something I heard on the radio this morning. In fact, lack of sleep aside, I did as well. The waking crew announcer on the radio this morning said that he’s been told more than once (while swearing at the TV) that it is […]
Last night I got some work done on the code project I’m currently trying to get out of the way. No mod_perl, no embedded perl, just straight CGI (and php, but I don’t want to start re-learning a new technology when the project is due on monday). I forgot how horrible it was. sigh. Guess

While watching the concert last night my only contact with the Canucks’ game 7 over the Blues was Silverstr occasionally jumping on the Internet through his phone and checking the score, then passing it down the row of the four of us. 4-1 final. Awsome. Great political cartoon in The Province of a guy in
Last night I went to see The Arrogant Worms in concert. Unfortunately, two of the people who were slated to go with us (Silverstr and SilverstrWife) had to bail (with good reasons). In a fight to find a way to get rid of the the two extra tickets we grabbed Yohimbe (of userfriendly fame) and
