TED - Ideas Worth Spreading
A great website that promotes new ideas recently came to my attention. Great videos that I've accessed lately include speakers such as: J.J. Abrams (Creator of Lost, Alias, etc), Malcolm Gladwell (writer of Blink), Bono, Peter Gabriel, & Gever Tulley (5 Dangerous Things You Should Let Your Children Do).
A Great Ski in the Sandilands
With our weather hovering just below zero for a few days I decided enough is enough - I gotta get out and ski. So Saturday afternoon I went for a tour on our local ski trails (the fly-in golf course) out my backyard for an hour and did another great ski of about 9kms this Sunday afternoon. I've been working out with my iPod - helps me keep up my pace during fast songs and slow down the pace for slow songs - still working on the ultimate workout mix, any suggestions? New semester starts tomorrow - we'll see if I can squeeze another ski before the deep freeze returns or if I'll be back on the bike trainer indoors.

From Russia With Love
A really cool story about a Russian couple reunited after 60 years apart due to Stalin's exile of people who didn't buy into communism. Check out the amazing reunion story of how they happened to meet in the village they were originally married .

Merging Blogs
Admittedly, I haven't been great at posting on either of my blogs since the arrival of facebook & other distractions so I'm thinking about streamlining my thoughts somewhat and just posting to this blog. But apparently there is no way of merging blogs other than copying and pasting each post - this would take a very long time! So anyone out there know how to do this more efficiently? Having said that - I'm not getting much in the way of comments since the advent of facebook either (or maybe this blog has become a wingless duck?) so I probably won't get an answer to my plea for help!

RIP
I'll be blogging now at musings and allowing this blog to wander cyberspace without my input. If I find ample time to move things over I may - cheers!
