It is very hard to explain how long ago yesterday morning is. Numbers fail at the task. 1100km doesn’t express it properly nor does 35 hours of consciousness with 6 hours rack time to break it up. Two router replacements, […] ↓ Read the rest of this entry…
From here. If the same method that exchange/outlook uses to store email were used in the real world as a paper filing system: Every document is translated into Greek, and the original is burned. Then they are all glued together […] ↓ Read the rest of this entry…
1034 We land in Rankin Inlet. We’re given the option to stay on the plane or head across the tarmac to the terminal. However, they’re offloading cargo which means the cargo door on the side of this 737-200 is going […] ↓ Read the rest of this entry…

It’s been a while since I’ve written anything of any substance so I thought it might be prudent for me to post a bit of a recap of the last little while. I took my brother and his gf to […] ↓ Read the rest of this entry…
