Vancouver bound

I'm off to the West Coast for the holidays, visiting Vancouver. Vancouver is the type of city that reminds me a one giant ski resort. It really is beautiful there. You really can do all sorts of things there from snowboarding to rafting.

I haven't gone snowboarding at Whistler yet but that is definitely one of my to-dos eventually.

I'm glad to see that Snowmaggeden has past by and as I look out the window, I see clear skies and a bright sun.

I'll talk to you then.

14 Top Blogs Worth Checking Out

So I'm digging Blogger as my blog application. I've used WordPress before, and I'm finding that Blogger is about 10 times easier to use. Sure it's got some Google branding but I'm a big fan of Google anyways.

So, if you look to the right of the main posts area of my blog you'll find my Blog List. There are 14 Blogs that I continually read and are some of my favourites.

Check them out for yourself and subscribe.

Enjoy,

Snowmagedden

As I woke up this morning and looked out my window I saw clear skies. On the radio and tv the talk was about a huge storm making its way toward Toronto. I thought that this was unlikely. And I was wrong. And the weather men were right; for once.

I remember in 1999, Toronto called in the army to help with its snow removal. I wonder if tonight, we'll see any signs of the armed forces coming to our rescue. I highly doubt it.

As for my office, it's pretty much empty except for my manager and the Marketing team.

As for my plans to head out downtown tonight, that most likely won't happen. Meanwhile the storm outside is getting worse. Will I be trapped in here tonight? I hope not.

As long as the weather clears by tomorrow night I'm content. For tomorrow I fly to Vancouver. Hopefully I'll escape Toronto's Snowmagedden.

The Inaugural Post

Well here it is, my first post on my new blog. I've actually been blogging for the last three years except I kept my original Blog private and open only to a few lucky readers. But now it's time to share my ideas with the rest of the world.

I hope that if there is anything you find here interesting that it serves you well.

See you in 09!
