Where the hell is Matt? 5

This is a neat story about Matt, a “31-year-old deadbeat from Connecticut” who quit his job in 2003 and traveled around Asia until he ran out of money. A couple years later, he made a video of a silly dance he does (the only dance he does) and it made him semi-famous when it got ...

Elle Magazine? Or "Elle Ad-gazine"? 3

I was in the bathroom tonight and I picked up one of Han’s magazines. I saw a catchy article headline, but they not so conveniently omitted the page number of the article. So I started to browse to the table of contents page to figure out which page the article was on. After browsing through ...

High memories

Today I was going through a bunch of old pictures, trying to find a baby picture to give to someone at my work for a baby picture mystery game we’re playing, and I came across my favourite picture from when I was jumping on our old trampoline. The picture is from a web cam video ...

Blake and Ziering, Long Lost Brothers? 1

Since Jason Blake started playing with the Toronto Maple Leafs this year, I’ve always thought to myself that he looks like Ian Ziering (Of Beverly Hills 90210 fame where he played “Steve Sanders”). I can’t find any evidence of anybody else on the Internet who has made this statement (Probably because nobody really cares). That’s ...

Do you guys have Lakeport?

Last night I came home around 1:00AM and let Mojo outside to pee. As she was peeing, someone threw an empty bottle of beer from their balcony that landed 10 or 15 feet away from Mojo and I. It hit a tree on its way down but landed safely on a pile of snow. I’m ...

Saved by the Urinal 1

{Been a while since I’ve posted a random useless thought} Have you ever had a few drinks at a bar and then upon entering the washroom you seriously question whether you entered the right room or not? This happens to me once in a while. I’ve already entered the washroom and it’s too late to ...

China Trip 2007 4

Last weekend we returned after 22 days in China for me and 53 days for Han. I know some of you have been anxious to see some pictures, so I must apologize for the delay. It’s been quite the shift from vacation mode straight back into work mode; and work has been busy; hence the ...

10 years for B.J. 1

Did you hear about the poor kid in Georgia who spent 2 years in jail because he received Oral sex from a consenting 15-year old girl when he was 17 years old? Genarlow Wilson, an honour roll student, a football star, and homecoming king, was at a New Years Party when the incident happened. Can ...

HEY TED!!

So I’m driving my Big Brothers “Little Brother” home on Saturday after we hung out. I pull up at a stop light and I see this mid-thirties guy walking on the sidewalk with a huge sticker on his chest that reads “TED”. You know, one of those, “Hello, my name is ….” stickers.. I couldn’t ...
