Long time friend, Director Nick, sends a rather loving note and great little gift to celebrate my Roll Up The Rim addiction. The little contraption with the letter is a Rimroller. Yes, its the same Rimroller featured on the Dragons’ Den. Nick is a man of good taste – he has also helped me take [...]

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. The easiest way to describe it is that its my own personal yearbook with all my travels from 2008. I should probably put together a guide [...]

And I fall back to the average. Michelle found a last cup for me after my usual location (3rd Ave and 5th St SW) finally ran out of medium cups. Got my haircut, now I really look… for a lack of better word, not domestic. Latest Statistics: Record: 9 – 73 Spent: $127.85 Won: $21.38 [...]

Globe and Mail (Patrick White) – Not everyone has endured the great doughnut drought of 2008. Calgarian Jonathan Lin has graphed winnings far ahead of the company odds at linisus.com/tim-hortons-roll-up-the-rim. I returned to a very snowy Calgary on Friday night, and Michelle and I watched the Forbidden Kingdom Saturday night! Its a good movie, especially [...]
