So it's November now. the 8th to be exact. It's been since September 15th that I've actually done anything constructive... I've just been wasting time since then waiting for winter to show itself. For the halloween weekend I went over to Tofino for a good old surfing trip with the dock staff...
well, here is another entry into my blog about the ever so popular subject of sustainability (because if without it, we all die.)
I grew up in small town southern ontario, never really living in a town, let alone a city. but over the past few years since i've moved away from home i've found...
i am just writting this to let you all know that i am on by far the largest computer monitor i have ever seen in my life. i am in the apple store in vancouver on a g5, for some reason i got my way onto newschoolers... they'll probably kick my off soon. i'm hidden in a corner of the...
Alright, I have a request from anyone who reads this blog entry. I am not asking you to vote exactly, I am simply just asking for all of you to go look at 'iliveinabox' profile (Karyn Lowther) in ifullrwasagirl and see if she's worthy of the title. yea she's a snowboarder, but she owns skis...
well, summer is over. officially. i'd say overall my summer was pretty kick ass, but at the same time, it was shorter then ever. you see, I am a ski bum, and that requires me to work my ass off all summer so I can do nothing but ski to my hearts content all winter. This summer I...
alright, so i'm out of the bush finally, got out yesterday, just vegging out today, good times. this was the first contract that i left early from (otherwise i'd be stuck planting into august like i did last year). might go do some fall planting on vancouver island for august/september, but...
well. finished the second contract of the season, got two more to go... i had quite in interesting encounter with a baby moose... it thought i was it's mom or something and followed me around for half the day. fucked up shit.
other then that, all i have to say is the skeena mountains...
i'm off to the bush. wish me sunny skis, friendly bears, and creamy land. or not, either way i just don't want snow.

In just over a week I am heading out to the bush to go treeplanting. This will be my 4th year planting, so I'm starting to see how the forestry industry works. I'm going to start this set of blog enteries on everything I know about the forestry industry. If you missed my last set of enteries...
Well, I was going to write a blog about suburban sprawl, but that little voice inside my head started up again, and it told me that none of you care, and those that care, already know, and don't care. so noone cares.
so now I'm left with a delema. Do I write the blog anyways and have noone...
So it's pretty safe to say that our society is heading towards urban development. Over the past few decades people have slowly been moving out of the country and into urban areas, where currently we are around 50/50 if not more in urban than rural.
This has many advantages, but has some major...
So I've been thinking, (yes I know, we pay people to think for us, I am only suposed to do - but screw that shit. I like thinking) and I can't quite figure out if intelligence is a gift to humanity, or if it is a punishment.
We are all aware of the fact that humans are the only intelligent...
Hello,
I am Darryl, and in 4 months time I will become a snowboarder. Here is my story.
I grew up in Southern Ontario in you're average middle class family. My parents moved from Brampton up to the Creemore area when I was a wee little boy to get away from the crazyness that is Toronto. We...
So a man walks into a talent agent's office and sits down on the couch. The man tells the agent about this act he has. It's a family act, and everyone he's preformed it infront of has loved it.
It starts out with the mans wife up on stage. She is 9 months pregnant and in the nude. The man...
Well, it's March - and for most people in the world, that means the ski season is weeks away from wrapping up. I find March to be an interesting month. It's a time to put everything into prespective and understand yourself a little better.
This past year has been an interesting one for me...
I never got into the whole myspace thing... I started coming to NS back in the day, and it has turned into something so much more since then. Well, I wrote my first 'blog' yesterday, and since then I've been thinking about blogs... what are their purpose? Perhaps the forum is so busy these...
