  1. AH-mazing, talented. Need to do a Lykke Li cover. Totally the right voices for it. RT @jonmchu: MUST WATCH!! youtube.com/watch?v=7_aJHJ…
  2. @followmefoodie I didn't either...one of my aunts e-mailed me saying "Hey, you're in the paper again."
  3. Cool! @RichmondReview named EdEats.com and @followmefoodie as the best local #Richmond food blogs: ow.ly/bgeRc
  4. Heading to Seattle for a couple days, maybe punch @Daergar in his pirate face. Where are the good photo spots in #Seattle?
  5. @michaelkwan guarantee $2.5m instead of $1m and I'd probably take it.
  6. @michaelkwan that's what I said! I can't ignore 25-to-1 with 50% equity. That's a no-brainer easy call in poker.
  7. Silly theoretical question: would you rather have a guaranteed $1m or a 50/50 shot at $25m?
  8. What's your opinion on shark fin soup? Won't touch it? Still eat it? ow.ly/i/EQ81
  9. @stephenfung @michaelkwan best I've seen is $72 for 1.5TB green drives at ME. I want to fill up my Drobo.
  10. How long has it been since that flood in Thailand? Hard drive prices are still so high.
  11. Taking my incredibly dirty car to this new hand car wash in Richmond. Senshaya, it says? Let's see how they do.
  12. Legs sore from soccer yesterday. At least I don't have a black eye due to "The Goalpost Incident" though.
  13. What's worse than having to go to the dentist? Having to go to the dentist at 9 in the morning.
  14. Great day outside! Heading out to play some soccer with the lads.
  15. Which way of gov't financing things like healthcare, transit, EI, education, etc. do you prefer? Pay-per-use or subsidized by everyone? Why?
  16. @panamajack not just the monetary cost but if I took transit, that's extra 2 hours a day commuting. Over 8 months that's TWO WEEKS of time.
  17. @panamajack used to take the 430 to UBC and would be routinely passes by 2 completely full ones. Recent students tell me that hasn't changed
  18. @panamajack how long term because it seems both transit fares AND gas prices go up and especially with buses, little improvement.
  19. @panamajack my regular commute would be 402-430-130, 2-zone, $7.50 a day. And it takes two hours a day away from my life.
  20. @panamajack it seems to me everything is expensive and not enough is getting improved. Buses are still 30min in between in most of Richmond.
