Last year we were at Lake Louise Ski Area for a few days for a skiing trip with friends from Japan – we had bought some north face backpacks for hiking at the Banff National park but didn’t make it there for we got too busy doing stuff at the Ski resort. So this year – [...]
Now I say everyone can use a projection alarm clock and a weather monitor – every morning – don’t you think? For about $80 – from Hammacher Schlemmer – this clock has a built in sensor that tells you the time and weather condition. I like that when I wake up in the middle of [...]
The cover you see may not be the same as the ones in USA but the Canadian one looks like the above. This movie was better than I thought it would be – Zoe Saldana is Cateleya a young kid who watched her parents get killed in front of her. So the 8 years old [...]
I brought the spouse out to look at some diamond solitaire rings for Christmas – but she is undecided as to which one to pick – she wanted some earrings too – and I had told her to go ahead and get it. She said that perhaps I wanted gaming rights – when I buy [...]
Simple and masculine enough for me – and if I wanted something to catch my cables – it would have to be this – no funky looking colored things that the spouse loved to buy. But the walnut wood is very expensive at about $42 – so i think I’ll get my brother to make [...]
The spouse insist of giving out gifts for a bachelor party to be held at our store – it’s a gaming session because the bride said no booze, no woman and no gambling – so we can’t head for Las Vegas – darn! But since she found some cohiba cigars for sale and bought them [...]
Finally managed to watch this movie – and even though I normally don’t like chick flick – one has gotta do right by the spouse right? before she turns crazy or evil eye on me. Justin Timberlake and Mila Kunis stars in this movie and it’s about 2 people of the opposite sex thinking that [...]
It may be near Christmas now – but the end of the year is also coming – so with some money left – I’m looking into getting the scanner software that the spouse had been talking about for ages – to reorganize my paper work for tax time. I think it would be an [...]
When you own a game store like I do – you do get to meet a lot of interesting people – some very nice – and some not so nice. I want to meet all the nice people and keep the nice ones as a customer forever. Unfortunately, because of the job situation here in [...]
I have just about any kind of guitar for all the game systems except of course the one I need most for a customer. A Wii guitar for rock band never seems to come into our store – and when you need one – it’s even harder. I had a customer who came in to [...]
I don’t know about other people but the spouse and I try to buy the right gifts for the right people and not just because we have to buy stuff for people during Christmas. Many people buy just any gifts just because but the spouse is very specific on what I can get her – [...]
I wouldn’t want to watch this movie if not for the spouse – who’ve heard from customers that this was a good movie based on a story book. And since we’ve just watched a movie by Emma Stone – on Crazy Stupid Love – another chick flick that the spouse wanted to watch. Anyhow – [...]
Why put your poor cat in a cage right? it’s just not right – even if the spouse don’t like kitty like we do – the kitty still deserve something to crawl into at night. This Native American Teepee is pretty unique isn’t it ? meant for your cats and made of 100% recycled cardboard [...]
Apple TV was first introduced in 2010 and I’ve heard about it – but haven’t given it a lot of thought till this Christmas. Why? I can’t think of anything I want – so when the spouse asked me about Apple TV – I figured I should check it out and see if I should [...]
