I love the vending machine at work. Put in a twoony (Canadian 2 dollar coin), hit the button for a Coke, the machine dispenses the drink can, and returns 4 U.S. quarters change! So the Cokes really only cost you 60 Canadian cents then. Of course this only worked 3 times, but hey that puts the score at me 3, world 57-billion.
Work? Ya, nothing serious just switching a local business’ client database over from their old DOS-based reporting software to a slightly newer system. That and the promise of a few other small projects in the coming months.

Do you know that Radiohead song from Amnesiac? The one called “Dollars and Cents”? Imagine if they were Canadian songwriters; I doubt it would be as troubling, or as moving, as it is.

I was told that the Chinese said they would bury me by the Western Lake and build a shrine to my memory. I have some slight regret that this did not happen, as I might have become a god, which would have been very chic for an atheist. by online roulette
