Monday, February 23rd, 2009

Today a group of Ryerson University (Toronto) students got a nasty surprise. Their personal info was being exposed on the web. From the Toronto Star: Almost 600 Ryerson University students may have had their personal information, including Social Insurance Numbers, revealed due to a software glitch in the system that registers students for courses.

Ah, Summer Driving Approaches

Monday, June 25th, 2007

Being a commuter in the daily rat race that is Toronto, I love it when summer comes. Why? Simple really. When school lets out in Toronto there is a remarkable drop in the number of people trundling along on the QEW on their way to gawd knows where. That in of itself triggers a question. [...]

OK, That’s Long Enough…

Sunday, June 24th, 2007

Another Work Week

Monday, July 10th, 2006

I may be hallucinating (truth be told that would be more fun) but, I could swear that the traffic on my morning commute across the Gardiner seems to be getting worse. I used to leave around 7:30 am to get to work in good time. Now, I find I have to leave by 7 am [...]

Why Life In Toronto?

Wednesday, July 5th, 2006

I have been in the mood for a while now to start wrtiting about this great city of Toronto that I call home. I have had the good fortune to live in cities such as Halifax, Montreal, Washington DC to name a few. But, to be honest the only place that I have ever felt [...]
