Beware the Ides of January

I’ve been kind of dour recently, so I think a slightly more playful blog entry is appropriate. So, where should I go with this new playfullness? A meme? Another list/contest? Some idle musings or creative writing? Well, I’ll get to that in a few minutes. In the mean time, I think I should update some personal things…

  • My resume is now online and available to the public. On the off-chance that anyone who reads me is looking for a recent graduate for a job, click on the “resume” link to the left. Otherwise it’s just not that interesting.
  • My blog is now up and running at Sportslogs.com. It’s not much (and no, I had nothing to do with the design… even though Mike likes it for some reason. Check in for my latest thoughts on the Toronto Blue Jays, which will coalesce into a post three to four times a week starting during spring training, with two to three until then.
  • I have nice clothes? Want to see? I’ll post some photos (moblogs seem to be all the rage, and I’m nothing if not a late-adopter) over the next day or two: now I’m too lazy and I’m not feeling 100% well.
  • Tomorrow or tuesday I’m going to electionize this blog. I won’t change the design at all, but I will create three skins: using this layout, but with orange (NDP), blue (Conservative), and lastly I will leave this one red (Liberal). Just for fun… let me know if I should make the changes permanent.

So fun, right? Have you guys checked out this Face Recognition site? I uploaded the picture below, and look who came out as my match… In case you didn’t know, Mill was the first great democratic socialist and was largely responsible for utilitarian philosophy.

  1. The resemblence between Mill and yourself in strong. :)

    I had done the face recognition thing once before, and it said I looked like Liza Minelli. This time, it said I look like Kareena Kapoor, a Bollywood actress. I don’t, but she’s very lovely.

  2. is strong. I’m challenged when it comes to the keyboard. ;)

  3. Ironically, the first time I did this thing, it spat out Benjamin Netanyahu, and man I was forced to “play” during a four month simulation for a Middle Eastern conflict class I took in my last year of university.

Liberalism is...

Liberalism is trust of the people, tempered by prudence; conservatism, distrust of people, tempered by fear.
