So how did you celebrate this momentous day?
Me?
I sat on my couch like the loser that I am.
Doing absolutely nothing.
Canada Day ’09
Happy Canada Day!
Bonne Fête du Canada
Somebody send me some Tim Horton’s Coffee.
And some Beaver Tails!
Please.
No Good Deed
NO GOOD DEED GOES UNPUNISHED.
You know,
sometimes the harder you try,
the harder it comes.
Life really does have a funny way
of kicking your ass when you’re down.
A Tribute to Michael
I guess the whole world knows,
that the King of Pop passed away today.
All his personal matters aside,
I truly admire Mr. Jackson’s music and talent.
I grew up when he was on top of everything.
And as a musician, you couldn’t help but
be in awe of what he has accomplished.
Here is my tribute to him.
Thank you very much, Your Excellency.
Music And Me
Music by – Michael Jackson
Voice, all instruments and percussion arrangement by – Ty Martell
I chose this song,
Not only because it’s one of my favourites,
but also because the lyrics are very personal to me.
It has taught me that,
When all has come to pass,
When all is said and done,
When nothing else matters,
It’s just me and the music.
Nothing helps.
Stuck in a rut.
That’s where I am.
And nothing seems to be helping.
Not even music.
Need to reinvent self.
Need to grow.
Where to begin?
How to begin?
Stuck in a rut.
That’s where I am.
Folding @ Home
I would like to tell you about a process called
“Distributed Computing.”
I know its a little technical term,
and it has “Boring” written all over it.
But if I could just have your attention for a minute,
I would like to share with you how this can be a great thing.
Digital Switch
Tomorrow marks the historic transition
from Analog to Digital TV Broadcast.
I don’t think anyone needs to be reminded of it
since the government and the media pretty much
shoved it into our brains that we need to be ready for this new conspiracy.
I mean, come on.
The only ones that are really going to be affected are those who still use
the old Over-The-Air antenna reception that you get for free.
(This means you, Grandma.)
They don’t like that.
They do not like anyone getting anything for free.
And they made sure each and every member of your household knows
about the transition and how horrible it is if they get left behind.
My God, what are they so afraid of?
Are they afraid that if people don’t get to watch their TV Programs,
they might do something else… like
Go outside?
See other people?
Or worse,
Read a book?
Turning pages, rather than switching channels?
Ugh!
The horror!
Me?
Heck yeah, I’m ready.
It’s the NBA playoffs!
I have to have that in Digital!
I am nice.
Many of you might not believe me,
but I truly am nice.
I don’t want to toot my own horn,
so here’s my friend Herschelle, mentioning me on her site.
See!
I told you I was nice.
Except maybe when I’m hungry.
Du bist Willkommen, Anne!
I Have Awesome Friends!
They know what I like.
