I have always enjoyed fishing as far back as I can remember. I can’t speak to when the lifelong pleasure officially began, was it when under 5 my parents took me and my slightly older brother to fish from the old train bridge across the Pitt River? Perhaps, as they secretly hooked two minnows on a bare treble hook and got me to reel them up. Beaming at their playful praise claiming how I was the “best ever” fisherman. Probably not the start though due to a 5-year old’s attention span.
Ah the things that conjure up a memory.
The older we get the more we rely upon our memories for mild entertainment during those quiet moments in our lives. More often than not some random event will trigger one even when we aren’t looking to take a stroll through our past. For example, a short minute ago I was doing a little YouTube…
Spirituality over the Years
So, I was just sitting here writing a post about my expectation for a strange visitation tonight. I went on to say that I turned on my bedroom alarm clock again after more than 2 years with it being off because I was tired of seeing the same number sequences all the time. Seeing the…
CleanTalk Addresses Several Self Hosted WordPress Concerns
I first learned of CleanTalk back in early May 2022 when a 3rd party email solutions provider wrote to me with concerns about the amount of spam email attempts going through my site. Fortunately, they also provided CleanTalk Anti-Spam as a recommendation to help mitigate the shear volume of email spam. Taking a closer look…
Amazon’s Wheel of Time Series
The day finally arrived and I, like so many others, could geek out and get our WoT on, and didn’t it feel good! Damn right it did up until the first episode. Almost from the first scene problems for the fans of the novels popped up.
Personal Update
I know that I haven’t been too active on this blog for the better part of a year but what can I say, this pandemic has left me oh so uninspired. It isn’t like I haven’t been busy this whole time as I have been. I really didn’t want to do a lot of writing…
BCIT ISSP Spring 2020 Update: MiSDIRECT & Trieris – Assault on the Aegean
As previously posted Pixelific Games Inc. had 2 projects selected by the British Columbia Institute of Technology Computer Studies program. Normally, the students would develop teams and select projects to work on as part of their studies, but these are far from normal times. Turns out that due to the virtual class situation, instructors formed…
Continued Trieris Game Development By New Group of BCIT ISSP Students
I know it has been a while since my last post, my only excuse is the tired, old stand by of “I’ve really been busy.” Since taking on the side job of Film Liaison over at Riverview I find that between liaising, my regular job and trying to finish of the 100-handmade TAOEX games, there…
BCIT ISSP Summer Project for 2018 – A Rarity from what I Understand
A few days after the presentations of the 3 projects that had been selected and developed by the 3 teams of students for the spring 2018 ISSP program I had received an email from the BCIT Industry Liaison and Student Wellness Coordinator, inviting me to submit projects for a rare summer program. Turns out that…
Global Warming and Carbon Tax and Geo Engineering – Oh My!
Here’s a thought for you. Mainstream media sounded the alarm bell for global warming and what has the result been? The creation of a do nothing, transfer of wealth, tax on carbon. Turns out that the rise in air temperature, what most people think of global warming as, is not the thing that humanity should…
