Be A Superhero!

Once again I am raising money for the BC Childrens Hospital Foundation through the Be A Superhero Campaign and the Upper Fraser Valley Golf Tournament with ALL proceeds going to the BC Childrens Hospital Foundation. This year the top contributor to my campaign will receive 8 hours of my hard labour and good looks. Click here to donate and Be a Superhero!

Vancouver 2010

Last week we were lucky enough to spend some time in Vancouver checking out the Vancouver 2010 Winter Olympic festivities and it was awesome. People were everywhere, everyone was happy and it was an overall great time. We were able to visit a couple of pavillions but line ups were long and we had the twins so were somewhat pressed for time. If I was able to take two weeks off I would have spent the whole time in Vancouver checking stuff out. Pictures after the jump...

The Banking System

No wonder the banking system blew up; check out the screen of the dude in the background. This is an instant classic!

Ridin' Seymour

This past Sunday I was lucky enough to ride two runs down Mount Seymour. We rode CBC to Neds Atomic Dustbin and out. I felt some guilt for riding CBC in the Winter as it was technically closed but I rarely have the chance to ride this hill and when I do I kind of what to get the full experience. The reason for this post is to showcase CBC. This is more then a mountain bike trail, it is a piece of art. The clip below is not mine but it is a good helmet cam of CBC top to bottom. CBC is not a trail full of stunts and booters but is loads of fun!When you watch the clip take note of the rock work and wood work, the footage does not do this trail justice but gives a good example of the quality of trails here in BC.

Apple IPad

Follow this link to a good description of the new Apple IPad. It has been getting mixed reviews. In my opinion it looks kind of cool but I am no techno geek.

Salt Mine Vs Oil Rig

The video after the jump is a great example of what happens when man does not think things through. Let me explain...Oil rig in lake drills too deep, breaches salt mine, water fills mine, lake disapears, whirlpool sucks water wrong way up river, 150 foot water fall forms...You have to watch the video after the jump which shows all this in action; it is kind of funny.
