quote of the day

Wednesday, March 26th, 2008

In my view, entrepreneurial judgment is the ability to tell the difference between a situation that’s not working but persistence and iteration will ultimately prove it out, versus a situation that’s not working and additional effort is a destructive waste of time and radical change is necessary.
-Marc Andreessen
And thanks to Aran for pointing me to […]

trailblazers (a guest post by Lori)

Sunday, March 9th, 2008

Hey guys,
I am back from the 2-day Tiger Leaping Gorge trek, safe and sound in Xian (and slightly sunburned). Despite an inauspicious start to our first day (I fainted onto the bathroom floor of our hostel) and beginning the hike when the sun was the strongest, Schachter and I still managed to ascend the […]

At the end of last year, Baron and I each invested in a new toy.

Today on Facebook I saw a friend’s Relationship Status switch to “Engaged”. Now, this is something we’re all waiting for so I immediately got excited and phoned his Mom to get the story. Her reaction was  “What are you talking about? He’s not engaged”
Several minutes later it was uncovered that this was the youngest brother’s […]

Thursday, September 27th, 2007

Since I’ve been pretty lame so far this year, I decided to blog about my friend. A friend of mine who shall remain nameless took it upon herself to post this on craigslist when she found her boyfriend’s sock at her place:

Mondays

Monday, June 25th, 2007

I have the Mondays. And they’re pretty severe. I can’t think of the last time I had them this bad.
I am afraid that the only cure is a case of the Saturdays.

And Saturday is a long time from now. *sigh*

The Crystal Age Has Arrived

Sunday, June 3rd, 2007

Know how sometimes when you give a kid a gift the kid is more excited with the box than the actual present itself? Well, that’s what last night was all about. The Michael Lee-Chin Crystal opened at (in? on?) the Royal Ontario Museum.
It was a free ticketed events with tickets to be given out after […]
