This is my personal blog, started in the fall of 2007 when I took off on a bike trip down the west coast of North America. That was back when I (arguably) had interesting things to say and worthwhile photos to post. Now that I am not doing anything remotely interesting with my life I am not exactly sure what the purpose of this blog will be beyond wowing you with my extensive vocabulary and incredible whit.


The following disclaimer still applies:

Perhaps it is easiest to state what this site is not to be used for, because really, all else goes. It is not to be used by potential employers creeping on my online profile in order to determine whether I am a suitable candidate (I am and you should hire me) nor any other form of sizing up, especially in comparison to Enid, the blogiest of bloggers. Otherwise, it is no holds barred. So, unleash your politically incorrect comments laden with sexual reference and offensive language. I will do the same. Consider this fair warning and an advanced apology to anyone I might offend.


As does this quip:

It is my hope that this site helps us keep in touch, freeing me from writing tedious mass emails, because quite frankly, I can't be bloggered.

Submissions

The DTMB t-shirt contest submissions are in! I was going to keep the creators of each design private until after a winner was chosen, but I think most of us can recognize the artistic stylings of Leigh Greenius. Arlen's necessity to take it to the limit is also evident in his submission. I think Graeme and Enid's personalities also shine through in their work, in less hilarious ways. Here they are:

You can vote in the poll in the top left hand corner of this page. We will be doing it French style where the winner has to get 50% of the popular vote. So, if there isn't a clear winner in the first round of voting the top two candidates will move into the second round. I thought about using STV but alas, it is too complicated. I am not sure whether the poll will allow you to vote more than once, but don't do it. Good luck to the competitors!

Arlen's is the most disturbing thing I have ever seen.

I suppose Leigh's design isn't so much a 'Downtown Mike Brown' as much as a 'Gastown Mike Brown'... which is probably also very accurate.
