So there’s this contest going on over at http://www.portocupecoy.com. You write a blog posting or tweet about why you need a Porto Cupecoy vacation. And then they enter you into a draw for a Porto Cupecoy vacation. Porto Cupecoy being a marina villa on St. Martin. Which I so need. As I explained in my […]
Hey, remember how I had a cracked teapot and I was all “I really need a new teapot before this one shatters and covers me in boiling hot tea” and you were all “you are totally going to wait until it shatters before you buy a new teapot, but you’ll be all covered in third […]
Last week I received an invitation from the Canadian Paralympic Committee to attend their July 9, 20091 International Paralympic Day event.

At the event, I learned that Canada kicks some serious ass at the Paralympics. […]
OK, so I have a confession to make. I’m a total, complete, absolute, 100% deliquent when it comes to my pushup/situp/squat challenge. Week 1 went fine, but then week 2 was a total bust, as I went to New Brunswick for a few days and didn’t seem to be able to find the time for […]

Tomorrow, I shall add one more province to my list of provinces I’ve visited, bringing the total to 8 out of 10 (and 9 out of 13 provinces + territories). For tonight, I leave for Fredericton, NB! Being that New Brunswick is on the other side of the country and is 4 time zones ahead […]

Today is Kalev’s birthday. You might remember him from such as adventures as my half-birthday free Slurpee advernutre and the fixing of my b0rked blog. Kalev, aside from being one of my closest friends, is also the man behind the scenes of NTBTWK who keeps it running when things get beyond my skills set. You […]
