Here are my weekly notes:
- I was at Blockbuster today and noticed that they are already taking pre-orders for Halo 3, which doesn’t come out til November. Price was $79.99 with a $10 deposit required.
- Eric Rice did something interesting recently – he posted an introduction message on his blog, despite being a blogger for years. He posted it as a kind of “new reader orientation.” Neat idea, I might copy that!
- I went for brunch with Sharon today to Barb & Ernie’s Old Country Inn here in Edmonton. It was quite tasty, if a little cramped. Ernie is quite a character! We also wandered around the Art Gallery’s Free For All event – pictures here.
- Interesting post on caffeine…it’s something I should learn more about.
- Has Twitter tipped the tuna? Ross Mayfield thinks so.
- Went to see 300 on Friday with a bunch of people…I left impressed! It’s not for everyone, but I rather enjoyed it. Speaking of movies, here’s the 100 worst of the worst according to Rotten Tomatoes.
- The U-Pass referendum passed at the University of Alberta with 84% voting yes.
Mack,
Why not go for the Halo 3 pre-order at Future Shop and get the making of Halo 3 and a Master Chief helmet.

Good call Steven! I knew the Blockbuster deal was a rip off. I think I will wait til the summer….who knows what kind of crazy deal Best Buy or the others will come out with!
300 was like an orgasm for my eyes. (And the beautifully built men didn’t hurt either)
