I know Jamie Oliver is doing some good around the world at the moment, but 440 pounds for dinner? Awfully, awfully pricey for a bunch of young and inexperienced chef’s still learning the restaurant business. I don’t know if my father-in-law felt sick from the food or the sight of the bill, but he wasn’t feeling well the rest of the night. Read what the Fifteen restaurant is all about on their website here.
My iPad screen has gone unprotected for more then a month now and impressively, there are still no visible scratches. It is a huge accomplishment on my part. What’s more impressive is that my wife uses it and there’s still no scratches! But now that the iPad is finally here in Vancouver, I decided I’d go out and look for a screen protector, just in case my luck runs out. I purchased a package that came with 2 screen protectors, made by i-Con. It comes with a matte finish and a glossy finish protector. It was only $20 CDN, but if you really put it in perspective, that’s a ridiculous price for 2 flimsy plastic stickers. Oh, and the air bubbles are not included…
Last night, I watched ‘The Cove’, a documentary on the yearly slaughter of more than 20,000 dolphins off the coast of Japan. I was absolutely horrified by the footage I saw. It disturbed me to a point that I felt I needed to help get the word out. Some may say, ‘what’s the difference between killing a dolphin and slaughtering a cow for meat?’ Maybe that’s another battle I need to fight another day, but after watching ‘The Cove’, it was clear I wanted to act. Join the Cause on Facebook, sign the petition, donate to the cause, watch ‘The Cove’ PSA. If you are reading this post, I highly suggest you watch the documentary, then decide if this cause is something you think is worth doing something about.
