facebook addiction

wow... it's so viral.... i'm finding people i haven't seen in yrs!

u can never feel too alone but as lizel states.... how much of your personal info do u really want on the web? people can track your life!

i know... if nobody know what i did.... then how can they get involved with my life! there's something about peeking into someone's diary that makes it so exciting... we r all voyeurs and exhibitionists... but now we can do it from the comfort of our own home... and no need to stand in long line ups to b the next idol/reality tv freak.

alcan seeding race

june 2 2006

1st race 1st
2nd race 1st
3rd race 3rd.

not bad... the team is coming to together. I am impressed... but now my expectations r higher... for a fun team, this will b an interesting june 16/17.... hopefully all the endurance work will pay off!

another round of hockey pools are over

the ducks have won the cup. i half thought about putting money on the ducks in vegas. well.. to late now. i tried the sportsnet pool cos it was free and there seemed to b more people involved. I didn't have time to check on the scores on nhl.com for their pool. how did i do? well i picked the wrong guys in the second round and that is what cos me. the other thing is that i spread my selections around for the 3 round instead of focusing on 2 teams.

17401 was my final rank.... out of atleast 30 000. the other function i didn't like was to see who was dead last... but i beat ray ferraro and Bill waters.. nick kypros and john garret beat me. was it fun? it was ok.. once my team was out of the playoffs... i wasn't really that excited this yr.

will i use this pool again? sure.... it's free and u can't beat free entertainment!

moving on up!

at long last i am an home owner. I don't have my own land yet... but i do have some space under my name. As they say... less land will b available as time passes so my 900 sq feet will b all paid off by 2032. I like it, close to skytrain, close to parks, and with more development on marine, a shopping centre will b very close. Well.. i would like to have other investments but that will entail trying to save more money. So i've decieded to take the bus in hopes that the cost of a bus pass will off set the price of gas. yes i will lose time but i will try to read on the bus.

Already i have read prey by micheal crichton. not as good as jurassic park and the characters didn't pull me in as much. but still a decent read.

i will plan to work more on the bus. we'll see how that experiment goes.

have to thank Ed, Sandra, Lev for helping out. and I am super happy to b living with Sue in our own home!
