Is this thing [still] on? A 2019 Wrapup
What a year it’s been! I figured after months of silence, I’d wrap up 2019 with an update on where I’ve been this past year and what’s coming next year.

Site News
New Gear section
Just a little post highlighting the new gear page I just added that lists all the photo, video and tech gear I use regularly. Very similar to my Flickr profile listing but more in depth and lots of links to it all for the curious.

Zombies, bears, kittens and creepy janitors
Figured an update was in order since I’ve been pretty busy with lots of things since the summer. A few nights before halloween, I figured it was time to carve up a pumpkin down at my local indoor shooting range: and practice for the upcoming zombie apocalypse with a 9mm and shotgun. Of course, this…
The Flying Canucks
This weekend I had the chance to check out the Flying Canucks…they aren’t hockey players, but they are amazing athletes who use trampolines to entertain people. The team is comprised of former Olympic athletes and Cirque De Soleil performers, it is a high energy show that even has a DJ. As you’ll see in the…
New Photography section
Inspired by my pals Duane and Kris‘ recent photographic efforts online, I decided to rebuild my photography section on this site which previously was just a plugin that pulled in my Flickr stream. I’ve decided to make it a daily photo kind of site. Using a new theme (Duotone) which changes the screen colours based…
Five days of unlimited iPhone Edge data
I’m home now after being in various parts of the Pacific Northwest for the past five days. Here’s the tally of my iPhone usage during that time: A grand total of 82.2mb over 5 days. Multiplied out to a full 30 days (x 6) equals 493.2mb ….I could see using something in the neighbourhood of…
iPhone 3G predictions: how did I do?

Let’s see how I did: Prediction #1: Details about the iPhone release in Canada will be announced on June 9th Steve Jobs himself will announce them during the WWDC Keynote as he reveals the next iteration of the iPhone (version…
Matt Darey’s Nocturnal Podcast
I recently stumbled across Matt Darey’s podcast (iTunes link) which is basically a rebroadcast of his show on the XM satellite radio station BPM. It’s completely free and from what I’ve heard so far, it is fantastic. The first half is his own stuff/mixes followed by an exclusive set by a guest ‘superstar’ dj. If…
I shall call it a LinkFeed
Shane and I seem to live in parallel worlds with a few differences. We both are pretty hard core nerd/geek types that like our gadgets. We both have blogs. In Shane’s world, he has a cute pug named Serendipity. Sadly, I do not have a dog (but would like one). In my world, I have…
Whoops
Just upgraded to the latest version of WordPress (isn’t that what all geeks do on their vacation?) and of course my theme isn’t compatible…so you get the default until I make it work or find another one. UPDATE: And we’re back…just had to comment out one line of PHP code and the world is once…
