Condo Pictures

One of the things I do to amuse myself while waiting for the condo to be built is to take pictures of it's progress. And you can see them here on my Flickr account. There's not a hell of a lot of progress to see at

Counting Down The Months

It was well over a year ago (May 22, 2004) when I bought my condo. The finish date is approximately June 2006. With that optimistic deadline in mind, that leaves about 8 months left. Oh yes, oh yes! OK, so realistically it’ll most likely be ready in the fall

Hello My Japanese Friends!

When I first installed ShortStat, Spain was in my top three hits (relevant post here). Well, it looks like the Spanish have been displaced by the Japanese (1114 hits and counting versus 143 for Spain). So hello my Japanese friends! Yeah…I couldn’t find a Japanese translation for that,

Hello My Spanish Friends!

In wanting to follow my site statistics, without getting too deep into it, I just recently installed Shaun Inman’s ShortStat. It’s wonderful little application and it nicely shows recent referrers, repeat referrers, number of hits by browser and platform, and number of visits by Country. And speaking of

The Bravery

So tonight I see The Bravery. This concert I’m particularly looking forward to as their latest album has to be my favourite of the year. And, even better, it’s at another location. I mean, I like Lee’s palace, but it’s nice to have a change of

Meat Beat Manifesto

Last Thursday I was at Lee’s Palace for yet another concert. This time it was to see Meat Beat Manifesto. I’ll be honest when I say I don’t know a lot about the group (which is essentially Jack Dangers) or it’s music, but it was a

The Raveonettes

I’m off to see The Raveonettes at Lee’s Palace in about half an hour or so. They hit the stage at midnight so there’s no terrible rush for me to get down there. I’ve learned that showing up early just means standing around a lot, which

Kasabian, Flyerman, and Diamond Towing

Last Friday I went to see Kasabian at the Kool Haus. It was nice to get out for a change and Kasabian put on a really good show. The opening act was Mad Action, who were also good, and while they played I saw the Flyerman again. He has a

Hey there, Rails developers

Could someone in the Rails developer community please create a webmail application that periodically saves what I’m writing? I have this habit of spending a painstakingly long time writing emails and by the time I’m ready to send it, my session times out and I pretty much lose
