This morning at break the Google Maps bike was at Yonge Dundas square for a photo op/media session. Afterwords a reporter from CityTV asked my opinion on the bike and whether I found it an invasion of privacy. I forgot my cardinal rule with the press — have something prepared the moment you see a camera on the off chance… (more…)
Every now and then I like to go to muchmusic.com to watch some of the latest hits, since they don’t show music on tv anymore. Here is my latest batch of thoughts.

It is with a small bit of trepidation that I announce that I am a Freemason. In fact, I have been a freemason for over a year now. On March 11, 2010 I walked into the Lodge for the very first time. On March 23, 2011 I went through the cermony to become a Master Mason, otherwise known as receiving the third… (more…)
