The Redesign from Hell – Type Choices

It is becoming quite apparent that my lack of time and energy is going to make turning this website into something useful somewhat of a problem.

Do you see what I’m talking about?

Post Every Day! (yeah, right)

There’s just not enough content being posted here, is there? Forget the crappy layout, how are the robots to aggregate me into profitability if I can’t even post a couple articles a week! Sheesh! I fully intend to post 7 posts in 7 days starting now! You’re reading post #... More >

Rogers, Continued.

The fallout from this whole Rogers fiasco continues. First they added insult to injury by replying to my complaints via a Twitter account, rather than, you know, the phone number of my current Rogers iPhone. Which they would have if they had read the copy of the post I sen... More >

Top 5: Reasons I hate driving in Montreal

First I would like to qualify my post by saying that, in general, I love the city of Montreal. There is no other city like it, where hundreds of different cultures can coalesce into something as brilliant and unique, full of life, music and art (and counterculture too!). I almost ... More >

The Moderate Muslim View?

There are plenty of things that the Judeo-Christian Bible expressly forbids, but no one but the most extreme followers actually observe them. A few examples would be Poly/Cotton Blends (Leviticus 19:19), eating shellfish (Leviticus 11:10), and a woman grabbing an attacker’s testicles... More >

Dear Rogers Customer Service

[ I wrote this letter to Rogers after I couldn't change my address on their website. It was the final straw in a string of events stretching back over a year. As of yet I have received no formal response, which I consider quite inadequate given my good spelling and level of outrage. Pe... More >
