Saturday, 10 December 2011. Dan Rather, of Rathergate fame, will be stepping down from "CBS Evening News". But not until March.

Rather said he would continue to work for CBS News as a correspondent for both editions of "60 Minutes.". It's basically what you do already, but admitting it's fake. Phoenix's 1.4 million residen...

Cool Quotes: July 2012
http://rempelia.blogspot.com/2012_07_01_archive.html
Thursday, 12 July 2012. Thank you, TTC. Thank you, Toronto Transit Commission. Thank you for increasing fares every year. I don't need that extra $100 anyway. Thank you for being reliably unreliable. It keeps life interesting, and I enjoy the challenge of coming up with new excuses for being late for work, because "There were problems with the TTC" is getting old. Thank you for cancelling express bus service when it snows. Apparently snow is uncommon in Canada, and you're not sure how to deal with it.

Thursday, 8 December 2011. So yesterday I met the Stephens for dinner downtown at Gusto. After having cycled more than 100 miles up and down mountains on Saturday, I was in the mood for some pasta. As always, we had wonderful conversation, great food (even though Stephen could likely do better himself! And a little show and tell. They had just purchased an antique fire hose nozzle at a shop nearby. What they plan to do with this thing, I do not know. Firefighters don't make a lot of money. They aren'...

Cool Quotes: Construction and Reconstruction.
http://rempelia.blogspot.com/2011/12/construction-and-reconstruction.html
Thursday, 8 December 2011. Just yesterday I received an email notice stating that some pins used in total knee replacement are being recalled by the company. Lucky for me, I have never used these pins during surgery. However, this and notices like this are a wake-up call to me and others regarding our routine use of man made materials in a human person. Fact is, there is no such thing as making someone "100%. " And what is One Hundred Percent anyway? An old medical joke comes to mind:. Truth is, we can d...

Thursday, 12 July 2012. This is a bit of a catchall post, thus the multiple categories. Things are hotting up at work and the upshot of it all is that I have been asked if I want to assume more responsibilities along with more pay. This didn't come quite out of the blue, but it happened very suddenly, i.e. on Friday morning right before lunch. Of course I said yes. Duh. So that's kind of exciting. Onward and upward and all that. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Marcel Clark - Resume. Shalonda Brown - Resume.

Desert Tusk Blog: August 2012
http://deserttusk.blogspot.com/2012/08
Wednesday, 15 August 2012. Run, Jen, run! See, I took up running in September, but only because I was seething with anxiety over my job hunt and needed to do something with all that energy. Now, I had always hated the thought of running - all that huffing and puffing and sweating, ick! And the few times I'd started running, I'd stopped just as quickly because it made me feel so uncomfortable and out of shape. Yes, stopping was the logical thing to do in that case, wasn't it?
