BC Votes May 16th

British Columbia Voters Go to the Polls on May 16

The NDP are soooo screwed. I don't know how the Liberals will fare as the leaders but when a party acts as the NDP have over the years they need to be spanked, hard.

Edmonton has a new hero in as talk of upsetting Dallas grows

Edmonton has a new hero in as talk of upsetting Dallas grows

"They chanted his name on the buses and trains on the way home from Tuesday's game. They called radio stations Wednesday to dedicate David Bowie's Heroes to the local boy who did good. ...It turned Edmontonians into believers."

Mets fans say they and the Mets have a philoshopy. I say the Oilers and Oilers fans do too. This doesn't happen in other Canadian hockey cities anymore. Every year during the playoffs I'm reminded why I keep having urges to live in Edmonton AGAIN someday. To be a part of that electricity is something special.

I would not be surprised if I lived in Edmonton again some day.

"All week children have been wearing Oilers jerseys to school and there have been an inordinate amount of people walking around the city with blue and copper coloured hair."

When you enter the city of Edmonton, you're greeted with the sign, "Edmonton, City of Champions". That really sticks with you when you grow up. That probably explains a lot. ;-)

The kid is all right!

The kid is all right!

Cheryl and I were so excited last night when Mike Comrie scored the overtime winning goal... and then we were proud of him and proud of the team that believed in him and the city that helped develop him and the history of the city that bred the winning and achieving attitude into him. Sport is wonderful, it reminds us who we are, what we believe in and why we persist.

Edmontonians are very proud of where they come from and the Oilers are a big part of that pride.

Go Oilers Go!

Very cool, Tom is doing Expert Systems with Frontier. I've been learning a lot about the power of Expert Systems since starting at NetStruxr...

The Mac OS X Dock is awesome. I can't wait to get going on my own docklings.

More OS X stuff I've been finding (mostly through Softrak):

Docking Maneuvers "lets you quickly and easily enable two hidden features of the Dock, orientation and pinning."

Plus for X

TinkerTool.
