Home Renovations

10K Results

The weather turned out to be nice; no rain, the sun was shining, and the temperature was probably around 10 or 11 Celsius. I ended up running the race in 41mins and 57 seconds. Not my best time, but I’m not in as good shape as I was in the summer, and the hills in ...

10K Race

I’m running a 10K race this morning at the Toronto Zoo. I’m not looking forward to it though, it’s 8 degrees celsius outside right now, and they are calling for isolated showers this morning. So I get to run the race cold and wet. I guess it’s better than running in extreme hot weather. Wish ...

Anyone have a gas mask?

I woke up this morning to an unpleasant surprise. Shortly after my alarm went off, still half asleep, I opened my bedroom door and I felt like I walked into a brick wall. My roommate’s bedroom is across the hall from mine, his door was wide open, and the entire hallway, stairway, and bathroom smelled ...

In memory of Rodney Dangerfield

Rodney Dangerfield (Born Jacob Cohen, Nov 22, 1921) passed away yesterday after going into a coma after having heart surgery. Rodney’s humour has always made me laugh. One movie of his that I always remember is “Back to School”. The movie is from 1986, and I probably haven’t seen it in 8 years or so, ...
