  • Electric Car Options

    A family member recently experienced a major issue with their vehicle, a vehicle that is a one year older version of the same make and model that we have. It got me thinking about our next vehicle. We haven’t yet paid off our current vehicle loan. We got zero percent financing from Kia when we… Read more

  • CUPE Job Action and Strike – My Thoughts

    This is one of those times where I have a fairly strong opinion on something that is happening, so I figured I had to write about it. In one word, the job action being required by the CUPE members is outrageous. Before you pick up pitch forks or raise me on your shoulders, I need… Read more

  • Giving Points to Points in Federal Election Platforms

    So, as I mentioned yesterday, I’m very interested in politics. I’ve taken the time to go through both BNN Bloomberg’s and Maclean’s federal election platform guides and I scored each party on their different platform points. I gave a zero if they didn’t have anything listed at the time I read the article, and then… Read more

  • Interest in Politics

    I don’t know if I’ve ever mentioned, but I am very interested in politics. I spend far too much time tracking what is happening in the U.S. and as we are in election season now in Canada, I’m spending a ton of time tracking what is happening locally for Members of Parliament and federally. I… Read more

  • PressTitan Products

    It has been a while since I’ve talked about PressTitan on my personal blog. Can you believe the company has already been around for more than two years? Right now, David Krug and I are working on refining our product suite by adding in some lower cost items in hopes that we can expand our… Read more

  • UBI: A Transitional Economic Tool

    US Presidential Candidate for the Democrats, Andrew Yang, has been travelling through the US talking about a Freedom Dividend, or what amounts to a Universal Basic Income, but one of the key concerns people always have when it comes to a UBI is that people will become lazy or that no one will want to… Read more

  • Geek Made Healthy

    I have launched a new site so that I can have all my health and fitness stuff, as well as some of my mental health stuff all in one place so that my personal blog can hopefully just be random stuff happening in my life. The new site is called Geek Made Healthy. It is… Read more

  • 1 Million Calories – Week 10

    March 4 – Today, like most days, I woke up early to take care of the puppy. I didn’t really eat breakfast, instead, I had a lunch of Cool Ranch Doritos and some Coke. I know I can do better, but I’m really not feeling all that great mentally. I spent time today editing last… Read more

  • 1 Million Calories – Week 9

    Feb 25 – We tried out a Shawarma place in Kingston today. I was worried it would suck, despite the good reviews on Google and recommendation on Reddit, but it was actually really good. One large meal from that place has enough food to feed two people, so if Annie and I can go in… Read more

  • 1 Million Calories – Week 8

    Feb 18 – Why does Cobs Bread have to taste so good? It is Family Day here in Ontario, and while I’m not off from work today, pretty much everything is closed, so there were limited breakfast options. I ended up getting myself and my wife some scones and her a drink from Starbucks. Overall,… Read more

  • Coworking Spaces in Kingston, Ontario

    Over the last couple of years, co-working spaces have popped up in Kingston and another is about to open in less than a month, so I wanted to take a moment to see what is out there and compare them. I haven’t really needed a co-working space as working from home has suited me well.… Read more

  • 1 Million Calories – Week 7

    Feb 11 – I woke up with a sore neck to take care of the dog just after six this morning, but thankfully, Annie and I went to bed by around 10:30 PM, so I got a fair amount of sleep. I skipped breakfast today, and I am in the process of having a snack… Read more
