Coolness

Okay, check out Dave's blog. He stole the quiz I stole from Alison, then posted that he wanted people from other places to do it and leave a comment, so people did, which is cool. Good idea Dave.

Anyway, check out his blog for his quiz. I've also added links to the people who took it on the side there, and I've added pops to the links so you can click without wandering from the awesomeness of my blog!

Oh yeah, and I changed the title. Bonus points for anyone who knows where the line comes from.

Oh I'm so original

One of these days I'll find one of these on my own instead of stealing it from alison

Please come to Canada!!!

So 7-up is offering a pretty sweet contest. They are giving away one flight into sub-orbital space, or $300,000 if they can't make good by 2008.

But, like audi's contest, they are only offering it to people in the US.

Why can't they come to Canada... is it really that hard?

*Sniff*

I'm a little sad today. I got rid of the Valiant. I sold it this afternoon in red deer to a guy from Edmonton. I'm pretty sad to see it go... it was a one of a kind car. But I had to... I was relying on it too much, and it was bad for my peace of mind. Anyway, now I'm on the hunt for a car. Something reliable, zippy, small... yeah, I'm selling my soul. But I still have my bike right?

Rode down to Coaldale this weekend to see Tito... It was good times. I miss that guy a bunch so it was good to see him. But man the ride was brutal... Wicked cross wind, and cold on the way home. Good experience though. I feel pretty ready for a longer ride.

Saw star wars on friday afternoon. My humble opinion is that it was the best of the 6. Hayden Christensen still kinda sucks, but ewan McGregor was pretty awesome.

Anyway, gonna go to the bank and deposit the cheque for the car.

The good the bad and the sunburned.

So the motorcycle lessons were so much fun. The school I went to was really good... we got to do a road ride today which was cool... A little biker gang. Although I don't know how threatening or cool you look when everyone has a bright orange vest with a big L on the back on. But, at the end I aced the test. 0 out of 14 points against me. The only really hard part was riding between 2 lines 8 inches apart for 25 feet.

The bad news is some asshole (sorry bout the language, I'm mad) ripped the CD player out of the Valiant last night. No windows broken which is good, but still. So I'll take solace in making fun of the retard who did it. First they were too dumb to get the wiring harness off the car. It would have taken literally nothing to break the wires or even easier, break them where I soldered them to the car's system. They tried, got three of them, then yanked out the wiring harness instead of getting the fourth. So they left the harness behind. Hehe, it's more or less worthless without it. They won't even be able to get the Captain tractor CD out of the player without breaking the top open. Not only that, but they missed the cash in the glove box, and didn't take any of the 25 or so CDs in the car. So all said and done I'm out one stereo (less than $100), and the theif gets nothing!

And the sunburned. I roasted the top of my head. Ouch. I have a funny sunglass burn too. lines from the arms and everything... but I'm using gobs of vitamine E and aloe, so if it doesn't peel all will be in awe of my tan!!!

EEEEEE!

I'm seriously excited. I start motorcycle lessons tonight. It's just the classroom component this evening, but I'm buzzing I'm so pumped. By monday I'll be able to ride anywhere I want solo, any time of day. Can't wait. On a related note, I need some pants. For riding that is. Jeans are okay, but I feel pretty exposed, and my knees get really cold. Marks has some heavy duty fleece lined ones for work stuff, those may be good for highway trips and stuff. I might even break down and get nylon ones or even chaps. Hehe, that would be funny... chaps.

A week and half and I'm up to Cold Lake for a grad retreat. I gotta start doing some serious work on my talks and stuff, maybe find a good game or two to do. These kids won't have typically seen guys like Steve Angrisano and stuff, so I may be able to steal a bit of his material (You actually see a lot of the same games and such between different presenters... I guess if it works good why change it right?)

Gotta go get ready for lessons

The funniest thing ever

Okay, Laura Bush is hilarious. They showed her 5 minutes at the White House Correspondence dinner on the Daily Show and I've never laughed so flippin hard. Seriously. Between saying the first time W tried to milk a cow, but it was a horse, and that it was a male horse, and that when her and lynn cheyne and Condi Rice went to Chippendales and that Lynn Cheney's new secret service moniker is dollar bill... it was REALLY REALLY funny. (so was John Stewart's joke that Rice's new moniker is ping pong ball... but I'm not goin there.)

Anyway, it was funny.
