Canada and The Olympics
03.13.10 | Permalink | Comment?

It’s been a couple of weeks now since the Winter Olympics in Vancouver concluded, but I thought I’d offer a few quick thoughts on the whole thing from the point of view of a Canadian.
I think most people see Canadians as very polite and passive folks, which for the most part we are. However, we [...]

Lost and J. W. Dunne’s An Experiment with Time
03.01.08 | Permalink | Comment?

If you’ve been keeping up with Lost so far this season, I hope you were as intrigued as I was by the most recent episode, “The Constant”. It certainly gave viewers plenty to think about, even if it did (as always) ultimately generate more questions than answers. In my online travels, I somehow stumbled across [...]

In Cyberspace, No One Can Hear You Blog
04.10.07 | Permalink | 8 Comments

Is blogging a waste of time? This is a question I’ve been asking myself a lot lately. Jay C and I have been talking about all the time and effort we sink into our blogs and podcasts, and when you step back and look at the big picture, we must be absolutely mental for putting [...]

Talkin’ Bout Generation Next
02.01.07 | Permalink | 3 Comments

I caught a documentary on PBS a couple weeks ago called Generation Next, where journalist Judy Woodruff interviews and observes the lives of a handful of 18 to 25 year olds (also known as Generation Y). Although I’m a few years older than that, I think this is the generation I would fall into (although [...]

I Blog Therefore I Am
12.31.06 | Permalink | 6 Comments

After taking a nice break from blogging over the holidays, I am a bit reluctant to get back to the “daily grind” once again. It’s basically like a second job, but one that I don’t get paid for. It’s at times like this that I am forced to question why I do it and whether [...]

Mods and Rockers

I’ve had people ask me how I got into podcasting, which, truth be told, may seem a little odd to people who know me. It’s certainly not because I am so arrogant and outspoken that I feel a need to force my opinions on the world, nor because I think I am a particularly entertaining [...]

World Cup 2006: Let Your Freak Flag Fly
06.28.06 | Permalink | 3 Comments

It’s always an interesting experience every 4 years when the World Cup comes around, because all of a sudden you get a brief glimpse into the cultural backgrounds of everyone you know (plus a whole lot of people you don’t know). Their true colours are revealed through a kaleidoscope of world flags hanging in windows [...]

Blogs and Podcasts on Satellite Radio
06.20.06 | Permalink | Comment?

I have to admit, I’m still not completely sold on the concept of satellite radio, but I’m slowly getting closer to appreciating its full potential. At the moment, it seems a little weird to actually pay for radio unless there is a specific program you want to hear (ie. Howard Stern). I doubt very many [...]
