Canada’s Housing Bubble
In my head, I think of myself as a mathematician first and an economist second.
As such, one thing you should know about mathematicians is that they don’t talk much — we sorta just state things and expect you put the dots together yourself.
In that spirit, here’s your graph of the day showing Canada’s housing “bubble”:

I think when people talk about “Canada’s housing bubble” they’re really talking about “Vancouver’s housing bubble”.
Worst things about having a cast on your hand
– itchy itchy itchy itchy
– that feeling of your skin just DYING to touch the air
– wrapping it in plastic so that you can take a shower
– not being able to do dishes or clean
– getting dressed takes 10x longer
– anything with long sleeves doesn’t fit
– tying shoe laces
– very uncomfortable in hot weather
– not being able to ride your bike :(
And some good things
– you can make up badass stories about how you got it
– your boss expects you to be unproductive
– there are no other good things
I’m not going to think about her
I can relate to eight of these. And half relate to two.

I was at the Media Huddle launch party yesterday and the photographer of the evening, Shannon Boodram, had one of the best business cards I’ve ever seen.
Lessons on Life II
Kids, religion will fuck you up.
Mendoza
Fleetwood is retiring and I need a name for my new computer.
Here are some I’m considering:
– Macaroni
– Mac Daddy
– Bernie
– Phil, short for Philly, short for Philadelphia, in honour of Mac on It’s Always Sunny…
– MacGyver
– and similarly, McGarnagle
– or McBain
– or better yet, Mendoza
I’m leaning towards Mendoza.
Rule 11
Rule 11: Cheating is never okay. When you or your partner cheats, the relationship is automatically over. Move on.
Back online
I’ve been without a computer for several months and haven’t been able to update, but I’m back online now.
Here’s what’s happened:
– my computer died
– my mom got me a new computer
– saw Alicia Keys in a real venue
– lost my way
That’s pretty much it.
