Shea and I are having a dress rehearsal for the baby’s arrival (it’s not coming but showed a couple signs it might be so five hours after coming to the hospital to get checked over, we sit awaiting test results.). Shea’s resting so I’m surfing around and came across an /r/askreddit question about the funniest […]
A couple weeks back, I attended the Federal NDP’s full day workshop on their “Prairie Initiative“. This is an effort by the federal party to lay the groundwork for a similar breakthrough on the Prairies to the one they had in Quebec during the last election. The day was filled with speakers, presentations and break-out […]
At the risk of sounding like an old fogey, I can’t really make out any of the words to this song. So I’ll just put the band name and title of the song as the title of this post instead of relevant lyrical excerpt like I usually do. But since the title of the song […]

When I was a kid, the cartoon “Battle of the Planets” was a huge deal for me and my friends. One of the many cool things about the show was that “the G-Force members stay in contact through a wrist-band communicator device.” In grade one, I still remember how I convinced a bunch of my […]
It’s no secret that I am fascinated by the different approaches that so many tech companies take towards organizational culture compared to more traditional companies. Here’s another example – a presentation outlining tech marketing company, HubSpot’s cultural code.
