SaskTel was out to Regent Place a couple weeks ago to shoot a storytime for their video magazine. This edition’s topic was “Snow” and they used footage of their host at one of our storytimes to introduce a few other segments shot in different locations such as the Saskatoon Zoo. The clips aren’t online yet […]
Quora has a great question about the best software mis-uses that people have seen. Because my family members read this blog, I won’t mention some that I’ve seen personally (ahem, Googling for a common web site instead of just typing it in the URL bar.

Pace was playing Pac-Man on the iPad but wasn’t doing too well. He handed it to me, saying “You do it dad. I’m no good at these old-school games!” Later he made this Lego creation, explaining “It’s a Pac-Fish. That’s just like Pac-Man but a fish” which I thought was quite creative…
I meant to post these on New Year’s Day but forgot. But they work equally well as a Friday Fun Link…
Went out to my parents’ for New Year’s Eve/New Year’s Day. As the image above notes, going home often means doing tech support – whether for Shea’s folks, my folks or anybody else I’m visiting. Not that I mind – I always am happy to have something I can contribute and am somewhat decent at […]
