Drangons' Den

Now, I'm not big on most of the reality shows out there, but here's one you have to catch. It's called Dragons' Den, and it's on CBCNewsworld, or channel 26. Anyone who likes business, marketing or new ideas will like this. It's like the Apprentice, just better.
Check it out, it's on Friday nights at 8pm or Saturday nights at 11pm.
Anyone catch it this week, what did you think?

Sex, Religion, and Humans

Interesting little article dealing with the shooting of those girls in the US. It looks at why the guy did them, and looks at the broader context of society and its thoughts on sex.

GST cuts will cost us

Just a short little article about how the government will make up for the GST tax cuts it introduced.

Thanksgiving with Friends

Tonight, Sreng and Veena came by and we had a Thanksgiving dinner together. There was no turkey or mashed potatoes, just pasta. Good whole wheat pasta with vegetables and creamy pesto sauce. It was great.
Actually, just hanging out with my friends was really great, it's been more than a week since I last saw them. Work and school has been keeping us busy. Best news is that we may go out Saturday night together. That is a rare occasion, as I always work Saturday nights.
Tomorrow night I work with you Jackie!!!!! Power power power!
Deb, you've also said you'd stop by, so I look forward to that. Make sure to ask for my section, no matter how filled or busy I am!

I'll do what I want

7 days straight of work finally end, and I have my Wednesday off. I can't wait, it will be great. Kinda reminds me of this South Park episode, because I can do whatever I want. Maybe not drugs and sex, more like getting my hair cut and eating some ice cream. =)
Oh, and I had a crazy dream I was in the movie labyrinth, running from all the goblins, and slamming doors in their faces. It was great. Then I was in Italy wearing swimming trunks that were tangled and had the liner hanging out. What-eva, I'll dream what I want bitch.

October is here!

Hello hello! It's my first night off in a few days, and it feels nice. Actually, I worked all day, but at least I got home at 6 today.
The last few days have been a little brutal. I caught a little cold, which always makes things a little more difficult. Nothing bad though, it's gone now. I have been working a lot , and put in 50 hours this week. That's my most ever. I'm liking the new positing as well, it's a nice change.
I really don't have much to write about, as I haven't been doing anything but working. I have had a few cool dreams, but nothing really interesting.
Oh, it's October now, which means Halloween is almost here. That's my favourite holiday, so I can't wait. If anyone is doing anything Halloween themed this month, you have to invite me.=)

Day off work

Today was a great day. I fixed everything that went wrong last Wednesday. First off, I went to the court place, and pled guilty with reason for my ttc ticket. The man was nice, and I told him the situation of how it happened. He thent said that the fine was wavered, and to do well in school. I thanked him in left. So, no fine for the mistake! He was very fair.
After that I swung by Mike’s place, and got to see him, unlike last week. Mike, your place is very cool, I wish I lived there. I like the whole tv is your computer setup. Mike even fed me. We then went our separate ways, I went to the Eaton’s Centre. I wasn’t in the mood to shop, but I bought one shirt and tie for work. After that I ate a cinnabun, then went home. Good day all around.

War is not good afterall?

So a leaked document from the Whitehouse states that the war in Iraq has caused terrorism to worsen, and given reason for people to become terrorists. Wow, too bad this document didn't come out before the attack and occupation began. It's funny how so many of us knew this would be true. I guess I'm just a gifted Psychic.

Government cutting spending

The Conservatives are cutting a program that was looking into the medical uses of marijuana.
It's not surprising that they are cutting it, as they are the Conservatives, but it is sad to see the research stop. I'm sure there are many Canadians that would have benefited from the research.
Maybe these types of cuts are what will pay for the GST cut? What a waste that was, unless of course you're a millionaire.

Bum Night

Just got back from my super fun night out with 9inch and Mike, except that didn’t happen. What did happen? We screwed up with the restaurant, and went to the wrong place. Sreng met us at a place that he was told was 515 Bloor, but it really wasn’t. What it was was a restaurant in construction that said “sushi coming soon” on the sign. WTF? So, we never got to meet Mike, who then waited for us at the real Sushi on Bloor. Mike, I am sooooo sorry about the screw up, I owe you big for ruining your night. We walked down loor to see if we could find you, but we didn’t get close enough to the real Sushi on Bloor.
We ended up eating at an okay Sushi place, but it was nothing like Sushi on Bloor. Nancy dropped Sreng and I off at the Spadina station afterwards (I’ve never been there), and that’s where our night was capped off. We went in the wrong door, and had two police officers chase us down. Apparently thy thought we were trying to skip out on the $2.75 bus fair, and fined us. How much? Oh, just $110 each!!!! So, I have now received my first ticket, for making a mistake.
Am I pissed? Yes, but just about not getting to meet up with Mike. I feel terrible about that. The whole fine thing is a funny story I can tell tomorrow morning. Speaking of that, I should get off to bed, I start my training tomorrow at 9.

Moving Up

This 7 minute clip from South Park is very very funny. Please watch it, even just for Butters, who is so funny and cute.

Drive In

Last night we went to the drive-in theatre and saw two movies. The first, The Covenant wasn’t all that great, unless you like watching really hot guys in a large shower scene. But really, who likes that? Me missed the first half hour of the file or so, so we didn’t really know what it was about or what was going on.
The second movie, was the newest one with the great actor The Rock. Wow, I am always amazed at the range of characters that he can play, such a great actor. Also, the up and coming actor from Pimp my Ride was in it as well, doing an equal job at acting. Didn’t that guy sing a song back in the day? I think the best part in the movie was the big fat guy that gave up, but then tried again. Wow, that was so original. Yes, AmErica has yet another all AmErican Football movie under its belt, this time with segregation as well.
It was a fun night, we cracked jokes all throughout, and caught up on each other’s going ons.
This Wednesday is also officially Sushi day, as I will be embarking on visiting Sushi on Bloor. I can’t wait to eat until I’m stuffed. Also, 9inch is coming, so it will be a fun night. Oh how you treat me 9 inch, a second outing in the same year

Pooncho takes on the beef...

Hi all! My postings over the last few days have been short and sparse. I’ve been busy mainly working, and organizing the house. I’ve made it my goal to clear out all the junk that I can find, and renovate the basement.
I’ve also been working to the max. So much so, that I have little time to job hunt. My computer is also giving me problems which is making things hard. But overall things have been good. I’ve had time to put some real thought into my equity portfolio as well, and I’m proud of that.
But, I do need to mention some events that have occurred. Last Friday, my friends and I went to Frankie Tomottos again. I was so excited because they are an all you can eat buffet (something that I enjoy a lot of) and they have big beef ribs (another thing that I enjoy a lot). Those two things, along with being with friends made me one happy camper. I had no shame eating those ribs too, you can’t eat ribs politely, you just need to get your teeth right in there!
Deb, you would have been so disgusted by me, I’m sure I ate a whole cow.
Daren, you can just imagine how many I ate. By the way, how was the movie Mr, Film Fester?
I also didn’t go to the Virgin Festival, like I had wanted. It turned out being pretty sucky from what I heard, so I’m happy I didn’t go. Massive Attack didn’t even show.
Today I had the day off, and totally slept in until 1030. I had a ton of dreams too, but I won’t bore you with them. Lately, I’ve been dreaming like crazy, it’s great.
My mom made me spinach dip as well, and that makes me happy=)
Hope you’re all swell.
