The 14th Annual Black History Month Dinner

28-Jan-06

If you are in the Bellingham, WA area, clear your calendar because it is going to be good.
On February 4th, 2006, the Black Student Union of Western Washington University is going to host their 14th Annual Black History Month Dinner. The event will include some good soul food (catfish, chicken, etc.), some entertainment (live music, […]

The Canadian Oil Rush?

26-Jan-06

Well it looks like Canada is finally on its way to become one of the richest nations in the world now that their sandy oil reserves are being utilized. Now I knew there was money in oil, but had no clue there was this type of money in oil:
This oil belongs to the Province of […]

Interview: Online

25-Jan-06

Well as you know the other day I was interviewed by my school newspaper. Well, yesterday the article went live so I nervously picked up a copy. What do I see as soon as I turn to the article? My name in big bold print! Yup, the interviewee decided to use on of my quotes […]

Photobooth Photos

24-Jan-06

Ever wonder what type of people take photos (or what type of photos people take) in photobooths? Well, some clever folks from the Shine Dance Lounge in San Francisco figured you did, and set-up a photobooth in their club that uploads the photos to their Flickr account. CLEVER!
I must admit, this is one of, if […]

Ford Downsizing

23-Jan-06

Even though I am not surprised by the move, it saddens me that Ford is slashing 30,000+/- jobs in North America. Not because I like Fords, but because layoffs of this magnitude are one of the factors that helped create the low-income inner city neighborhoods that are present in some major cities today (Detroit anyone?). […]

Seattle Seahawks

22-Jan-06

It is official. The Seattle Seahawks are going to the Super Bowl for the first time EVER!!!
In other news, did anyone see Paul Allen’s teeth during the awards? They are absolutely disgusting. You would think with all the money that guy has he could afford some teeth that are white …. but apparently not. Oh […]

Google Fights Bush Administration

20-Jan-06

Go Google go! In a slightly daring move, Google has decided to deny the Bush Administration access to search request data. I say daring because the Bush Administration is known for their comply-or-die mentality.
Anyways, it appears that the Bush Administration wants the data to examine how much porn is accessible to minors when conducting searches. […]

Interviewed

19-Jan-06

So today I got interviewed by our school newspaper The Western Front. I was a little bit more than a lot skeptical about the interview as all media outlets tend to have a knack for taking quotes out of context. In addition, our school newspaper has had its fair share of problems misquoting people in […]

Commercial: Audi Keys

17-Jan-06

I figured it was about time I post some more video (since people love videos), so here goes. I found this little clip (commercial actually) while browsing the net the other day. It is a rather simple/clever concept. If you cannot see the video, then you most likely need the XViD codec installed on your […]

The Double Space

12-Jan-06

So recently I have noticed a push for the inclusion of the double space in writings. For those who are not knowledgeable in the way of the double space, the double space is simply two spaces between a period and the subsequent capital letter. As an example, “this. Is” a single (normal) space, and “this. […]
