4 more days!

The conservative national convention next week should be very interesting. I’ve been looking forward to it for so long. I am leaving Saint John on Wednesday and will be returning on Sunday.I’ve been busy reading all the amendments and there are some I really disagree with but it should be interesting to hear what others…

Still Looking…

It is Day 42 without a job, but I am still looking. As you may have noticed there has been some changes to this site as happens often when I get bored. I recently purchased LiveSaintJohn.ca I had purchased hosting from 9esolutions.com for it in January, but that did not work so now I have…

Week One

Well this week despite being the first week of classes after taking a year and a half off, was fairly uneventful. The old adage that if you don’t use it you will lose it is true. In the Math class for one it is so far covering a lot of the things from Grade 11…

Has it been that long?

I haven’t had an opportunity to update this here blog entry in a while. A few weeks ago I bought freesmelvin.ca with a new hosting provider all-in-all it is working out fairly well. I am still having trouble setting up a few things in MySQL and postreSQL but that will happen in a bit. Now…

cyrkam airt?

This is an incredibly fun and addictive flash game. It is sort of what most people do in the office place but more competitive. I found it on addictinggames.com. Synopsis:A co-worker throws paper balls at you for about 60-90 seconds and the object is that you try to catch them and throw them in the…

Some Updates…

Once again I got another letter from festival by the Sea saying they don’t need my services this year. I wonder if it is because they have too many volunteers or that I did something in 2002 that I’m not aware of. Tomorrow I’m going to take a theater production workshop, I think it will…

Change of Pace

While I left Client Logic on the 13th after Seven and a half wonderful months. This fall I am going to be attending the University of New Brunswick in Saint John. I’m going to take Business. For some reason I seem to take courses that I can’t spell. While running for Mayor, and while posting in…

After the election

Many people have asked me what was it like to run for Mayor of Saint John. The answer was that it was a time of a life time. I was privileged to meet everyone that I did meet. I now have a greater respect for Saint John and the issues about it. I thought that…

My Birthday

The last week has been very busy campaigning. But at last it comes to an end. I was planning on having a special dinner today with my Mother but she decided to leave town. Today I am going out for dinner with my aunt. Then heading into town to do Too Close to Call like…

Last 3 Days

The last three days have been very interesting. I had the opportunity to meet with many Saint Johners, and received a lot of good feed back. I was saddened to learn that I was not considered by the Fire Department, as I believe my plan would benefit the Fire Department the most out of any…
