Another aww inspiring image

Here we see Nathan and Lauren, two of my close friends who happen to be getting married quite soon (yay for groomsman Jonny!)

Bask in the awwwwsomeness 

Nerdy Entertainment

I... am a model railroader... I build model railroads... and drive model trains... so what, ya wanna fight about it? haha

My friend and I hit "Supertrain" back in February. This was one of the most impressive layouts. Not as much for the overwhelming number of trains operating independently around the layout (though that was cool), but instead for the detail put in to the surroundings. We stumbled across this scene late in the day and were thoroughly impressed. You will see the murder victim laying bleeding in the park, the camera crews (with appropriately labelled vehicles and cameras) trying to push past the police, the ambulance painted to fit with the Edmonton health region (the layout's home), and the CSI investigators looking over the scene. All done at a scale where those people are not much more than 1cm tall, the ambulance is about 2cm tall.

Very cool.

Take the road less travelled (ewww cliche)

Taken a while ago. These is the railway line running through the Inglewood area of Calgary. Take the track to the right and you will reach the Ogden yards (many long hours spend watching the trains there in my childhood). The left track is noticeably (though not in the picture) less used, its dull rails clearly illustrating how little this siding has been used. Behind me is the bridge which heads North across the Bow river and up along Nose Creek.

Bruce Kuhn - Gospel of Luke

Had the unique and enjoyable opportunity to watch "The Gospel of Luke" performed by ex-broadway actor Bruce Kuhn. Emotional, passionate, and honestly real. He's an amazing actor and really brought the story to life through a mix of comedy (scottish accents on some galileans) and some very strong moments where the truth was all that one could see.

If you ever have an opportunity to see him perform this play, take it.

Pray for Mojo... I mean Jono

Jonathan "The Job" Harris is jobless... think of the irony... Think of it!

My hopes had been sparked by the possibility of returning to the company with which I completed my practicum but that opportunity has since fizzled. This means I am once again on the hunt for summer employment.

There's loads of places I'd love to work, the most recent example would be the local Christian radio station which I love but think could definitely use the assistance of a technical writer with major graphic art, web design, photography, and sound technician experience (are ya sold on me yet?). But if they don't like my resume then I'm beginning to wonder where I'll head. There's always Can-Am which has been the proverbial nursery for at least 4 (I think I'm forgetting someone) of my close friends and therefore might be easily convinced to hire another one of 'the gang'.

So ya, if you know of any jobs, or maybe you're rich and just want to hire me (with all of the above listed skills) to do your own bidding at a decent wage for 4 months, then by all means comment away!

[No picture as I'm not at home and I can't think of an appropriate image to describe my mood at the moment... maybe the "happy cat has run out of happy" picture... silly kitty]
