I Won! Friday afternoon I was so bored at work. I can't blog there because I'll lose my internet privleges. So I was listening to the radio. The Edge 102.1 was giving away tickets to The Waking Eyes. I called in, and I won! So, I'm going to the concert! Wooo Hooo! I also get a cd and DVD or something like that, and I get to meet the band. Bitchin' I'll blog all about it, after it happens!

Movie...Dos and Don'ts.... I'm going to give a quick list of dos and don'ts for the average movie going crowd. But first, a quick explanation as to where I've been and what I've been doing. Throughout the last three weeks of January I was in training in Hamilton with SeanieD, as per a previous blog entry. Since getting back I haven't been able to post due to a nasty computer problem. We must've

In Training... I'm not sure what this post will look like. I'm working off a laptop in the training room in Hamilton. I'm on the fifteenth floor of a 15 story building, with a lovely view of Hamilton and the Bay. Of course, if you've been to Hamilton, you know I'm being sarcastic. Today is a nice clear sunny day. It's freezing outside, but there is a layer of new snow covering most of the city.

The Weekly Update... Well, I just finished another week of training in Hamilton. It's great, an all exclusive paid trip to Hamilton Ontario, in the middle of January. What could be more fun? Disregard that question, the list would be endless. Anyway, Monday I start my last week of training. And thus, the last week of non-blogging. Seanie D is one half, although physically more like two thirds,

January Man, what a busy month. Actually, it's not that bad. I don't have too much work to do, but I'm training in Hamilton for my job. I'll be there all of next week and the week after, with the exception of Friday. So I won't be posting very often. I guess on Fridays. The good news is that Seanie D will be doing my trianing for the next two weeks. It should be pretty fun. Sean is a total goof

Happy Holidays...and all that. Hello folks, I wonder if anyone is even reading this. I haven't posted in forever. I just haven't felt inspired. I try to make excuses like "I'm too busy" or "I'm too tired" or "I need a break during the holiday season". But they're all crap. I just haven't been able to think of anything to blog about. I guess I could complain about the constant traffic when

Hey Everyone... Well, I'm at the job now. Well not NOW, but during the day. It's not a tough job...yet. But the commute is tough, over an hour and a half sometimes. And I've had to change my sleeping patterns. Hopefully I'll get my body used to my new schedule. Then hopefully I won't be going to bed so early, and I'll have time to blog a bit. For now, it'll be mostly on weekends. I hope

Lists... blamblog has had a few interesting posts recently. One was his Celebrity Sex List. A post asking readers which celebrities they would sleep with given the option. His next was part of Death Week. If you had three months to live, what would you do? How would you choose to die? And, who would you haunt after your untimely death? So I've decided to combine the two lists. Which Celebrity

I Got the Job... Yup, I got it. I start on Monday Nov 29th at 9 am in Mississauga, near Square One. It's going to be a hell of a commute, but I get three weeks paid vacation after six months of working there. Sweet ass sweet! Another bonus, I'm in collections. So I get to phone people and tell them to give me money. "Hello?" "Hello Mr. Deadbeat, this is Chip." "Uh, Chip who?" "Never mind punk.

Weekend Update... This weekend I went to the Niagara Region to visit my friend Greg. Greg has been living in New Jersey working for a tele-vangelist for the last few months. He was visiting his parents in Wainfleet, a farming town outside of Welland. Greg and I bought a 12 pack of Red Cap beer. They come in the old style stubby neck bottles. Basically, we spent the evening talking about our

It's all a big conspiracy... No, seriously, it is. This past weekend I went to Niagara Falls. I take the 401 to the QEW and get off on the 406 to St. Catharines. While I was driving on the QEW towards Hamilton there was mild traffic. When I say mild traffic I mean that there were several motorists on the road but there was plenty of room to pass people in any lane. So, while I was driving in

Making Money... One of my friends is looking for a way to make some cash. He's looking for work, and he currently does freelance stuff, but he's running out of contracts. He and his roommate were joking around one day about starting a porn web site. I guess my friend is actually taking it seriously now. So he's wondering how to go about getting people who would be interested in making porno.

Job Interview Follow-Up... I thought I wasn't going to get that Government job I had an interview for a while back. I figured that since I hadn't heard anything for over two weeks, that meant they'd given the job to someone else, and hadn't bothered to inform me that I wasn't successful. But last Thursday one of my old managers told my Mom that they had just called her for a reference. So there

All is Right in the World... I saw The Incredibles last night. It was PERFECT! The Incredibles was the best computer animated film I've ever seen. Not only is the animation, modelling, lighting and texturing fantastic, but it's about super-heroes! This film was like an animated comic book. It was a lot darker than I thought it'd be, and there were some of the funniest scenes I've ever seen in

A Quickie... Hey bloggers, I'm not gone, I'm just busy. This weekend I went to Ottawa to celebrate halloween and my birthday with some friends. It was pretty fun in the capital. I dressed up as the guy from the Alexander Keiths commercials. Many people knew who I was supposed to be, many didn't. It was a good excuse to drink Keiths, and an even better excuse to use a fake Scottish accent.

Great kid...don't get cocky! Yesterday, October 27th was my 26th birthday. I'm a geezer now! I've been around for more than a quarter of a century now. I got some great gifts. My brother, The Boy, got me Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas. Actually, he borrowed fifty dollars from my Mom, and forty from me, and spend about seventy of that on the game. So I'm expecting some change from him. He got it

Ha ha ha! Funniest line...ever! "Well if you ever want to see a mailbox shoot a boy, that's about as close as you'll get." Oh man, The Simpsons is so friggin funny! Homer fights Ed-209 from Robocop. Sweet!

Hey Fatass! I saw a headline on Netscape titled People Fatter in China than U.S. The related article is titled Fat in China. I found the Netscape headline to be ridiculously inaccurate. There may be more obese people in China, but their population is more than five times that of the U.S. China's actual obesity rate is like 7% or something, and the rate in the U.S. is like 30%. That sure

Job Interview... I had my interview with the Ministry for a Collections Officer in Mississauga today. I think I did well, I hope I did well. I know I didn't do perfect, but hopefully I did well enough to get the job. I'll know next week maybe. But maybe not.

I heart huckabees.... "Everything is the same, even if it's different." "I heart huckabees is brilliant." Raves Chip Tijuana. I saw two great films this weekend. Pixistix and I went to the Parmount theatre in Toronto to see I heart huckabees on Saturday night. (It was a bit of a last minute plan, so I wasn't able to contact any bloggers and try to meet them.) I heart this film. I heart

Justice will be served.... So Ontario will be passing legislature to ban pit bulls. The government believes that the dogs are "ticking time bombs". They will be allowing owners to keep their current pit bulls, but are forcing them to wear leashes and muzzles, the dogs not the owners. The owners will also be required to spay or neuter their dogs. And no new dogs will be allowed into the

Star Trek.... Oh man, I've been so bored lately. But, I've managed to watch a few episodes of Star Trek: The Next Generation on Spike TV. I would love to live in that time period. Imagine having a holo-deck? That would be incredible. The only problem is, I'd probably spend all my time hanging out watching movies and playing video games on the holo-deck. Or, better yet, acting out video games

Movie Reviews.... The Forgotten: I wish I could forget this film. Yeah, I know, pretty lame, but so was the movie. The trailers made it look great. Some woman losing her mind, memories disappearing, and no one believes her. But the actual film is a pathetic attempt at a twist ending, which is given away before the half way mark. A big disappointment. Don't see it. The Manchurian

Swiffer Commercials.... Do these commercials actually work? Do some people actually buy Swiffer products because they think it will make housework fun? Does anyone dance around the house while dusting? What about Febreeze? Has anyone ever sprayed something stinky with Febreeze, then kneeled down and sniffed that stinky thing to see if the Febreeze actually took out the smell? I don't think
