Understanding the terrorists

Having the ability to defeat the terrorists requires a solid understanding about why terrorists are doing what they’re doing. Modern history can explain a lot about the terrorist mindset and you can even understand the reasons for their hate and resentment toward others.

Collingwood Triathlon 3

I just registered for the Collingwood Triathlon on Saturday, August 6th, 2005 in Collingwood Ontario. The race I entered entails a 800 Meter swim, 32KM bike ride, and an 8KM run. I’m still a triathlon virgin, but very excited, anxious and nervous about trying it. If I enjoy it, I might perhaps enter an Olympic ...

Zorro Underwear 6

The first time I saw my brother Tom with his “Zorro” underwear, I was on the floor laughing. I don’t know what the Z is actually supposed to stand for, but I like to call them his Zorro underwear. Tomorrow I’ll post a picture of his Wonderwoman underwear 😉

I just boned my dog Mojo, but just yesterday Mark told me that my bone is too big for such a small dog. So far there is no indication that my bone is too big for Mojo. She’s already looking for a place to bury my bone. What is your opinion? 😉  

Toronto Island Boat Cruise 1

On Friday night we had a work event where we went on a “boat cruise” in Lake Ontario through the Toronto islands. There were a few hundred people on the boat, but one person really stood out. One of the guys that we work with had quite a few drinks and he and his wife ...

Do all good things come to an end?

… I would have done anything for that girl

Insincerity and heartache 3

What are you supposed to believe when a person you really care about appears to be sincere but their actions don’t reflect what they say? Is everything supposed to be fine the next day when they act like nothing happened, not realizing what pain they’ve put you through? It’s amazing how much impact a person ...
