Tidbits

  • Sleepover at Ikea - Maybe this is the only way to get to the $1 early enough…

  • A ramen bath - Japanese spa with special baths resembling instant noodles.  I wanna play!

  • Old age homes for dogs - 1) Old dogs don’t like to be abandoned at strange places.  2) Playing with young puppies will probably cause the older dogs to die faster due to exhaustion.

  • A remote-controlled pigeon - Oh the poor thing…

  • An article on a brilliant method of teaching grade schoolers about bats and rabies.  I smell a lawsuit.

  • Will trade beer for Crumpler bags.  Tempted by the beanbag and messenger bags…

I decided to go on a little bike ride after work today in a sad attempt to prepare myself for the Ride for Heart event on Sunday morning.  For those unfamiliar with this event, this is the annual thing where part of the Gardiner Expressway and DVP is…

Finally got around to uploading the last batch of China photos.  It’s been like five months.  Yikes, that’s almost half a year, not that sure where some of the photos are taken now.  I guess it doesn’t help that a lot of the lakes either look similar, or have similar names.  I really need to start a more detailed travel blog or something, before I forget everything.  I wonder how much work it is to create a mashup with Google maps and photo thumbnails like this.  So many projects, so little time and motivation.

Who Wants to go Bowling?

March 15, 2007 | Activities, Waterloo |

It has recently come to my attention that there really is a full-size bowling alley in K-W.  Brunswick Frederick Lanes.  I remember the last time we tried looking for bowling in Waterloo, all we found were dinky little 5-pin places like Waterloo Bowl.  I’m trying to recall…

Food Review: Johnny Fresco

One might wonder why such a prime location as Weber and University can have no students there during lunch time on a normal weekday.  When we walked in, half the tables were occupied, but they were all obviously non-students.  And for good reason.
