I must not go through the chip aisle in the grocery a lot, because its the first time I’ve seen this special “unidentified flavour” of Doritos. They’re spicy and not terribly unique, so consider yourself warned. Current Statistics: Record: 0 – 6 Spent: $9.68 Won: $0.00 Probability: 49.33% [RUTR 2009 Progress]

Only had one steeped tea this morning, and of course it was a loss. Today was a scary day, as I had watched 28 Days Later with Michelle (yes, I’m 7 years behind). Must stop watching scary-type movies at night because my imagination is too active. Current Statistics (Updated 2/24/2009): Record: 0 – 3 Spent: [...]

Tim Hortons is starting off strong on my dollar, with two losses to kick off the new losing/winning season! In the background is my 3rd personal annual photo book.

Not a moment too soon: Calgary Transit’s horrendous trip planning system is now integrated with Google Maps, so now you can trip plan using the Google Maps website. Its super easy to use too: enter in your directions like normal (for example, going from Canada Olympic Park to the Saddledome), and select your transportation method [...]

Presuming you didn’t randomly type in my name by chance (because that would be creepy), welcome to the new Jon Lin blog. This site looks pretty much the same as the old Linisus Blog, but when busy season dies down, I will roll in a new theme to mark a change of the times. If [...]

A broken Bodum Pavina glass on Saturday morning. After buying 6 of these and having only two left, I think I’m done with these nice looking but too fragile glass cups.

Somedays I feel like the only person who is disappointed with iPhoto ’09. When announced at the keynote, I literally thought Apple read my mind as to features I lusted for, and was at least 2 years late (2006: Riya was beta testing searching via face recognition, and Flickr had geotagging).
