Wii Unboxing

Last night we got our Wii from Future Shop. This was pretty quick shipping, considering we bought it on Thursday. The system was just as sexy in real-life as it is in pictures. Rita and I eagerly unboxed it, set it up, and started to play.
Right now, we only have the Wii Sports bundle that [...]

The Black Box Explained

An important concept learned by an undergraduate student in the social sciences, and one that should be learned by everyone, is the Black Box Theory. Don’t let the word “theory” scare you, as it is a relatively simple idea. Let me explain to you what the black box is and how it’s used in our [...]

Why Rechargeable Batteries Rock

Rechargeable batteries. We all know about them, and we all have our own opinions on them. Unfortunately, I don’t think enough people are using them. For this reason, I’ve decided to write a short post about their greatness.
I am personally a strict rechargeable user, and there are four main reasons for this. Let me walk [...]

Indian Food–Try It!

I just want to let people know how good Indian food is. For the past month or so, whenever Rita and I order out, it’s Indian. If you like spicy food, awesome, if you don’t, that’s fine too (just look for the non-spicy dishes). But, either way, I can guarantee you’ll enjoy it.
There are so [...]

“We have a Wii”

“We have a Wii.” Those are the words Rita welcomed me with as I came on MSN just now. I’ve been wanting the system ever since I tried a demo at the Eaton Centre in Toronto. I’m usually not one to get “hyped” about a new gaming system, but the interactiveness that the Nintendo Wii [...]

We Are at War

This is very “out of the blue,” but while reading an article on disappearances in other countries, I was reminded of the fact that we, the country of Canada, are currently at war. This is a fact that many of us often forget. It is so very easy to take advantage of our privilege. We [...]

Project 365: Days 18-22

Alright, here we are at day 22 of 2007 and the pictures are still coming. Recently I’ve been on a hunt for this girl who Rita and I always used to see in first term in the cafeteria. She is always wearing her sunglasses, no matter what the weather is like and no matter where [...]

Obama’s Dirty Little Secret?

Well, Fox News (the same media outlet that pushed George Dubya into power) is at it again with their conservative agenda. This time they are attacking presidential hopeful Barack Obama of the Democratic party. What reason does Fox have for chastising Obama? He’s a SMOKER! It seems that Fox will dwell on every little negative [...]
