So I’ve had a couple days to let the election results sink in and I thought I’d do a few quick hits on various topics coming out of that history-making day. As I posted on Facebook immediately after, it was real mixed emotions after the results were confirmed. Elation. And puking. Elation in that the […]
Last Friday, I wrote about Chat Roulette Love Song which was the extremely successful proof of a guy’s Masters thesis on viral video. Speaking of Friday, another recent viral video that blew up even bigger than Chat Roulette Love Song is the video for “Friday” by Rebecca Black which has gained over 30 million (!) […]
Noel Gallagher quit Oasis last year (apparently for good this time – it used to be a weekly occurrence back in the day) so the core of the group has reformed as “Beady Eye” with a newly released album, “Different Gear, Still Speeding”, which is pretty rocking… Blur reunited last year but much more interestingly, […]

Kid’s Eye View of Regina Airport, originally uploaded by headtale. Pace loves taking photos so I occasionally hand him the iPhone and let him at it. Always interesting to see what he decides to take pictures of and the perspective he brings. We took my parents to the airport on Friday afternoon so this is […]
Saturday Snap – 1988 Computer Specs, originally uploaded by headtale. My mom was cleaning out some papers at home and found the original spec sheet/packing slip for the first computer our family ever bought in 1988 which is when I was in grade nine. It doesn’t have the actual price mom and dad paid but […]
