The dating site Ashley Madison has been around for quite a while.  They offer dating matchups for married, engaged, in relationships etc.  They claim to have over 7 million members but reports show they only have 700,000 hits per month. Claims have also been made that a large majority of members are “fake” profiles.  They even offer an “affair guarantee.” They have flooded the market for a long time with commercials, banners and even talk shows. It’s hard to avoid knowing the name of the site.

I’m not a fan of this site. I firmly believe if your going to cheat why not be single, but maybe im old fashioned. I honestly shudder everytime I see the commercial.

What are your thoughts on this site?

I finally got it over with. Today, I went to the advance polling station to partake in my democratic right by voting. I didn’t want to deal with the queue, forgetfulness, or mere procrastination come election day, Monday, May 2nd.

Anyway, as I followed the yellow Elections Canada signs, they led to a greeting desk. Behind the desk sat a girl…who was texting. Briefly, she lifted her head from her cell phone, asked me if I had my voter information card, directed me into the room, and promptly went back to her texting. Umm…okay.

Then, while waiting for my ID/voter card to be checked, a cell phone rang. Eventually, another Elections Canada Worker, a person whose job it is to check ID/cards, picked up her phone, and then promptly left the room to continue her conversation.

After I finished voting, on my way out, I overheard her conversation, and it wasn’t about a family matter, but a friend’s Facebook wall activity.  Huh?

Am I missing something here? You get $100/day to sit there to do a boring task. Accept your fate, bring a book/magazine to flip through while considering yourself lucky for your additional income.

Texting and chatting on a cell phone about Facebook is completely inappropriate – not to mention that it’s being done on tax payers dime! (And isn’t this misuse of technology violating some sort of privacy issue as you’re officially working a polling station?) Am I just old-fashioned or is texting/mindless cell phone babbling now part of societal norms?  If so, where was I when this happened, living under a rock?

I think I want to return to that rock right ’bout now.

(Warehouse sales galore!)

As per the above flyer, there are waaay more brands than just Brooks at this sale. Other brands include: Teva, Fila, powder room, ripzone, airwalk, Avia, And1, & more!

Although I’m not really into sports gear, last year, I went anyway since the sale was in my city. The set-up was a bit odd, with boxes of merchandise placed on the floor, insufficient lighting, but I managed to snag a pair of Teva flip-flops for like $10! Not bad, considering that they’re really comfortable and a heckuva lot cheaper than those Havaianas or whatever they’re called!

Anyway, here are the sale details…

When
Wednesday, April 27th – 4-9pm
Thursday, April 28th – 9:30am-9pm
Friday, April 29th – 9:30am-9pm
Saturday, April 30th – 9am-6pm
Sunday, May 1st – 10am-5pm
