Ah...that makes sense
I've taken to listening to the CBC every morning as I get ready for work. It's kind of nice to get my news on. Anywho, They recently arrested 17 people in Tornoto for links to al-Qaeda, or "being inspired by" al-Qaeda. CBC has been going on about it, perhaps a bit too much, since it happened. Yes, it's a BFD, considering Canada was mentioned as ( Read more... ) -
here goes nothin'
I've always said I was okay with my geekery, but that's really only partially true (why must I turn my LJ into a LJ of LIES?). It took a long time for me to allow sleepingboy and jackblattler to see my LJ. Besides Kirsten, they're the only people in my RL that know. And...yesterday under the influence of beer I informed my roommate. In fairness, I garnered a good ( Read more... ) -
As my co-worker put it, people are artards
South Park season 6 said it best...artards. Asshats. Dumbshits. In the last 2 days I've had 3 customers come in asking me to change their phone plans. Usually I can do that in about 2 minutes. Not, however, when their wireless provider is FIDO and NOT Rogers. Fido is the competition. Fido does their own thing. And these people are down ( Read more... ) -

What is your alias?
paynbow or "Painbow"
How did you choose it?
I stared blankly at the "name" field on the old CoA forum board until my favourite Angel line popped into my head. "You know, Anthony, you can be a rainbow, not a *punches Tony in face* "painbow"." It was changed to paynbow when yahoo already had a ( Read more... ) -
When you call your movie "The Last Stand" you don't leave a lot of wiggle room for sequels
Writing this review now is foolish, since I have to be in Richmond tomorrow at 9am, bright-eyed and bushy-tailed to meet with the Manager of Wireless sales in Western Canada and all the managers from my area. This currently leaves me with about 6 hours of sleep, but the movie is fresh in my mind, so review. Complete side note: they promoted me to ( Read more... ) -
Sasquatch!!!
I just got back! 7 hours in the car...enough to drive me nutty. The concert was AWESOME. Without a doubt the best concert I've been to, as well as the best camping trip I've had in a long time. Tomorrow or Wednesday (probably Wednesday) I'm going to do the big update with pictures and everything (so, flocked). At this moment, however, I am ( Read more... ) -
There is definitely such a thing as too much porn
I'm leaving for Sasquatch on Thursday... Hooray! I'm so glad to have a break from work, even for a few days. I've been going a bit nuts lately, and to add insult to injury, yesterday I had to sort through the porn room. No one's done it since Marian left, and there was too much porn density for the shelves. I had to go through each title, make ( Read more... ) -
HOUSE!
Congrats to everyone on my flist who won at the White Knight Awards! You guys rule! *smooches*
I spaced on House again. Monday and Tuesday are kind of a big blur for me. On Tuesday I still thought it was Monday, and on Wednesday I turned on the TV at 9 only to realize it wasn't Tuesday. But at least I didn't sit down to an hour of German ( Read more... ) -
welcome to the dark side...
A man came into work the other day with a cell phone problem. Long story short, he let a friend borrow his phone and they changed the settings past the point of my ability to restore them (it's a cautionary tale: don't lend luddites your cell phone). Anywho, he kept giving me this strange look, and I usually translate that into, "why am I ( Read more... ) -

So...maybe I do buy into Global Warming. Holy Jesus, Mary, Mother of god, it is freakin HOT out. And not only has my apartment taken on many of the qualities one looks for in an oven, but the complete lack of wind outside has baked the air. Thank god work is air conditioned. It is only May. Why is it this hot in May? May is, strictly speaking ( Read more... )
