My life with the occasional political or sports talk. Tuesday, September 26, 2006. From Where I Sit. As appearing on www.radioowensound.com. So who is getting excited this fall's municipal elections? I doubt too many of you are, just look at voter turnout rates. Sometimes I think that's because these elections don't make it easy for us to vote down party lines. We have to actually. learn about who we're voting for. I know, that's a heck of a lot of work, but I think we can do it. Our councillors and mayo...

My life with the occasional political or sports talk. Thursday, June 01, 2006. Today I'm off to Toronto to get on a plane and fly to Europe for the very first time. It still hasn't sunk in since I got up at 4 this morning to work the morning shift. I really enjoy doing it the couple times I have. You get a chance to do a little bit of banter with the morning host - something I havn't done very much of so it's clearly a work in progress - but I enjoy that. But all that can wait. London for 2 days, then Sc...

My life with the occasional political or sports talk. Thursday, August 17, 2006. Apparently the federal government is actively seeking the opinions of average Canadians on what their role should be in post-secondary education. Now, as someone who believes the feds should be much more active in ensuring anyone who qualifies for post-secondary should be able to go, this is of great interest to me. If you really want consultation wouldn't you actively push for as many people to get involved as possible?

My life with the occasional political or sports talk. Saturday, September 09, 2006. Sorry about the lack of updates lately. I was trying to become a more active blogger, but that's kind of hard when your computer dies. It's amazing how little computers have advanced since I bought one. Sure, they're a little faster, a little better graphics, etc. However, during the computer arms race that was going on for a few years it seems like they jumped light years ahead every few months.

My life with the occasional political or sports talk. Friday, October 13, 2006. Game 3: Edmonton 6 San José 4. The confidence of many Oiler fans despite being down. When Lupul scored to make it 4-2 many of us had a terrific sense of calm. This team had the talent to come back. If they played their game it could happen. If they kept taking bad penalties it wouldn't. Smyth scores. It's not pretty, it's almost never pretty, but Smyth scores. He just knows how to do it, and you can't teach that. PS - Ottawa ...

My life with the occasional political or sports talk. Tuesday, June 20, 2006. People analyze games to death. I can give you a number of reasons why they came up short tonight, but they did. It's a 1 goal game and an empty netter in game 7 of the Stanley Cup finals. It feels like I got kicked in the nuts by Wolfenden, but I'm proud of the Edmonton Oilers and I've had a great time watching this team. I don't now when we'll be in this spot again, but I'm glad I got to see it at least once.

My life with the occasional political or sports talk. Saturday, October 07, 2006. NHL Western Conference Predictions. Hockey is back and thank god. At work we're short staffed and I'm working too much. Clearly my personal life is going through some turmoil. I need something to bring me that every day joy. Boy did it feel good Thursday night to come home from a meeting and watch Edmonton beat Calgary. The little things in life like that can sometimes be such a lift. I also didn't expect much from the Rang...

My life with the occasional political or sports talk. Thursday, August 10, 2006. So apparently the latest from the Team in Edmonton is that Petr Sykora is indeed almost surely, it has to be true this time, I swear, I wouldn't lie to you. coming to Edmonton. Seriously. We're not kidding this time. Jason Gregor apparently said we can expect it by the end of the week. Just like we could expect it by the end of 2 weekends ago. Is there anything the NHL can do about this? Are they continuing to wait on him?

My life with the occasional political or sports talk. Tuesday, June 06, 2006. I have had almost no internet access in my time here, but I have a brief moment here at Amy's friend's Hannah's house. Re-uniting with her was great. It was just a joy to see her and hug her and yea I think we both were kind of trying to figure out how to act and react at first. Is that really you? This isn't a phone conversation? We are going to have several days together? Then off on a long bus journey to Edinburgh. 9 hou...
