Me No Likey Technology

Bad News: Poindexter is Ill. In fact, Poindexter won't start. This means that I will not have a computer for a whole weekend. This does not suit me very well. When I took it to the tech (who is extremely competent), he said, and I quote "Hmm. I've never seen THIS before". That is not good. Not good at all. Especially given that I need him in order to give my talk in Edmonton in a couple of weeks. I hope he's OK, for both our sakes.

This problem prevented me from drunk blogging last night, unfortunately. Although Cleavers did. God Bless 'er.

We have found a new Thursday night haunt: Mayday Malone's on Bathurst at DuPont. The key ingredients:
1. Karaoke
2. Darts tournament (where Phrilly was invited to join a league... Go Banana!)
3. $4.35 pints
4. Walking distance.
all make it a fantastic choice indeed. Unfortunately, we got Phrilly to the Dance Cave a little too late to make her stick to her sobriety guns. Ah well.

This weekend will be full of sports and concerts... good times to be had by all. Kicking-off tomorrow morning at 9am, I'm heading to Skalliwags with the Brits to watch some Ruggers... then to Hugh's Room for dinner and Matt Barber/Peter Elkas/Valerie Gore discussions... and Sunday to Phrilly's to watch her cheer on her beloved Steelers for SuperBowl XL.

Maybe its best that I don't have Poindexter, as it would just make me feel guilty that I won't be doing any semblence of work this weekend.

I heartily disagree. Mayday Malone's is a dangerous place to spend a Thursday evening...hence why I've only managed to get vertical after lunch!

Buddy. You can always use my humble companion, Darwin, for the presentation. He's no Poindexter, but he's got some good shit going on.
