South Park Jason

SpjasonI know my brother is really going to like this. If you go to Planearium you too can create your very own South Park character. There is a fairly large selection of options to put together, so give it a go!

Thanks to carpeaqua for the link!

Too much studying makes these kinds of things funny

I came across the funniest thing today. It was an article from November 2004 about how CIBC was sending confidential infomation via fax about thousands of their clients to a junkyard in West Virginia. The old guy that owned the junk yard couldn’t get CIBC to stop sending him all these faxes, faxes that gave him enough info to steal millions of dollars from CIBC customers RSP’s, so the old guy locked the faxes up and took CIBC to court.
The story isn’t so much the funny part. Whats funny is at the bottom of the story is an ad for Scotia Bank RSP’s….smart move! It would be funnier if I could show it but thats beyond my computer capabilities so heres the link if you’re interested.

Google Maps Now with Satellite View

CityhallI must admit that I’m a bit addicted to Google maps, it’s got a cool interface, and it actually seems to find where I’m looking for every time. Couple that now with a satellite image of the area that the map is currently on, and we’ve got ourselves a very cool winner. Anyone recognize Mississauga City Hall?

Must be Spring

Dscn3230And to mark the final snow melting, and the return of the sun, the racing tires go back on the Acura. Sweet summer days cruz’n down the street. For my own reference, the back tires are on the bottom of the stack, come snow time again. Yay!

Giant Ewoks!

GiantewoksI got this off of Boing Boing. Apparently the online game Star Wars Galaxies, celebrated April Fools day, by setting giant Ewoks free in the game, to rampage and show that they are NOT cute and fuzzy, but a force to be reckoned with. Way too funny.
