Remember the Milk
I’ve started using Remember the Milk to keep track of my tasks and “to do” lists. I’ve taken my cues from an old post on their blog about configuring it for use with GTD, and although I’ve got an awful lot of data left to carry over, it looks as if it’s going to be […]

Today, Phil Western and Ministry’s good news is my bank account’s bad news
I’d like to open up this post by pledging not to become one of those awful bloggers who only ever talks about mobile phones and social media and what not. Yes, I recently bought an iPhone, and yes, I’ve mentioned it rather frequently since. But I hope you’ll believe me when I tell you that […]

Link of the Day: Man vs. Clown!
Peter Lynn is a friend that I got to know a number of years ago through Golden Words, the campus humour paper at our alma mater. He’s maintained a blog called Man vs Clown! for years, and like his work at GW, it’s funny stuff indeed. Like many people whose blogs have been around for […]

Are you happy now?
“How are you?” the cashier at Shoppers Drug Mart asked the guy ahead of me in line who was buying nothing but two twenty-four packs of toilet paper. “I’m happy now,” he said. “I’m happy now.”

Link of the Day: Together is Amazing
Kate and I got back from Vancouver late last night, ordered a pizza, did some laundry and went to bed. Now it’s Monday morning, and we’re both getting ready to head back to work and jump back into the usual routine. For me, that includes getting back into posting after a brief hiatus, and I […]

One not-Ford drops out as another not-Ford takes the lead!
Look, I know I promised that I wasn’t going to post anything during my honeymoon. But in my defense, it was my wife who pointed out that Rocco Rossi has officially withdrawn from the mayoral race. And to hear that his announcement followed the release of an Ipsos Reid poll that showed that Smitherman has […]
