Well, based on how slow it’s been lately, either my computer’s dying or I have too many tabs open. Let’s hope it’s the latter as that’s easily solved! Super excited to see Ryan Meili’s name pop up as a strong “definitely maybe” in a recent list of potential NDP leadership candidates, especially since, as the […]
A timely (ha!) article about Daylight Savings Time. Saskatchewan doesn’t have it although it’s a constant topic of discussion on coffee row and elsewhere across the province. Premier Wall even promised to take it to the voters in our most recent election so we could choose. But he apparently realized it wasn’t politically savvy to […]
Well-known atheist, Sam Harris, recently posted “The Fireplace Delusion” as an analogy to help atheists understand how theists see the world (and especially how they feel when their beliefs are criticized). The point he makes is that a wood fire – in a home hearth or around a campfire – with its strong associations of […]
I spent part of today chipping out the last of the ice on our driveway. In mid-February. In Saskatchewan. Last winter was one of the most brutal I can remember – usually we get 1-2 really cold snaps through the whole winter (which usually lasts from October to oh, let’s say April). But last year, […]

A couple semi-related Reddit threads… What are some unwritten rules of photography? My rules for reading
I’ve mentioned Quora a couple times before. It’s a community-based Q&A site built by two ex-Facebook employees that some project will be bigger than Twitter and Wikipedia. The site lets you follow different topics as well as individual questions. This approach gives you a pretty high degree of personalization and the weekly e-mail digest of […]
Shea and I could’ve sat and watched this exhibit at the Maui Ocean Center for hours (except Pace was rushing to the shark tanks and it’s pretty hard to argue with that!)
Molokini is one of the world’s best scuba and snorkel spots. Shea and I went out yesterday for a tour and during the trip, I asked our guide to take our picture. I expected him to just snap a quickie from the surfboard where he was sitting watching our group but instead he hopped off […]
Spent the day on Anini Beach swimming with Honu, another amazing Kauai experience. Maui’s going to have to be pretty spectacular to compete with Kauai – everything from our condo and its ground-floor, watch the whales from your lanai, steps to a children’s playground location to the helicopter tour of the island to a visit […]
