OK, so I don't update enough. I admit it. I read religiously everyday. I comment every once in a while - but I haven't been putting my self out there, ya know?
So what's going on? Not much. Work mostly - and there's not much exciting to say about the electronics components procurement industry at the moment. Flash is on spotty allocation and lead time are stretching out. The manufacturing sector is recovering in spurts and I'm still gainfully employed.
The furbabies are all healthy and happy. Spring is in the air so the cats are enjoying the airflow, with the sounds of baby squirrels playing unsuspectingly across the street as my kitties plot their demise - if only they could figure out how to get past the damn screen.
I am looking forward to another active summer and this weekend is dedicated to getting my bike oiled and lubed so I can start riding to work a few days a week. That and a big long hike - possibly around Buntzen lake or a snowhoe on Grouse mountain.
Politics? Bush has got to go. Copps has got to fight. Martin needs to save face because I can not fathom Belinda Stronach as the next Prime Minister - or Peter McKay for that matter.
Hockey? OK, I can not see how any organization that promotes fighting as a part of the game can hold their players accountable for injuries. Isn't fighting what hockey is all about, anyway? Maybe I just don't understand, but it makes me think that the movie Slapshot called it all those years ago. Where did the game go? All I see is buffoons beating the crap out of other buffoons.
Also, I have a new-found love for Johnny Depp. I have always loved the guy, but I haven't had this kind of hormonal reaction to a celebrity since Scott Baio joined the cast of Happy Days.
I think that's it for now ...
