CN Tower: Climbed
Jack, George and I conquered the tower!

We were up at 5:30am, downtown, registered, and climbing by 7:00am...

Here's a shot of us, post-climb, looking quite victorious indeed with the tower looming in behind. It was a great experience, and for a great cause. We'll be doing it again next year, hoping to better our climb time of approx. 31 minutes.

We each got a nice tshirt with our time sharpied onto it, and also free passes to go back up the tower (using the elevator!), which was a nice surprise!

Afterwards we enjoyed a breakfast at Cora's before getting on with our day...  ¶ 11:52 PM 0 comments

I totally want to get an XBOX 360 for free... Just checked out www.FreebieAuthority.com the forum site that focuses on the whole free stuff scene on the net, and found a new site/network called GetFriends, they have a number of different sites, get4friends, get5friends, get6friends, all with increasingly valuable gifts... The get6friends site offers the XBOX 360 Core System.... Ooh... Baby...  ¶ 12:54 AM 0 comments

  My New Wheels Check out my new car!

The lease on my Hyundai ran out in October, so I returned it, walked across the road to Saturn Mississauga, and picked up a 2007 Saturn Ion Sedan... I've had it for about a week now, really loving it... I'll take and post some decent pictures after I take it for a car wash :)
