Student Teacher Candidate Wiki

So a few of us decided to create a wiki for one of our courses in order to share material and study notes.

Then I asked 'Why can't it be THE central depository for the classmates we are going to be studying with for the next two years?'.

And so I created a wiki for my 2008-2009 session:

https://umeducation2008.pbwiki.com

Let's see how this works. It'll be interesting to see where this goes.

Another GPS for the road...

I already have 2 GPS's but why not one more:

I entered some pictures of me flying around the coast of Australia in my hang glider and won an online contest.

Another one up for sale.

Check it out.

Housing Market in the United States

I've been paying attention to the American economy a lot lately. Even more than the Canadian election it seems.

This news video says it all:

It's pretty depressing and disturbing. Imagine being out there. Houses bought at $399k and are now worth $280k.

And the housing markets have exploded here in Winnipeg with land in Waverley West being sold for $200k and that's just the land!!!

Let's hope we don't follow in our Southern friend's footsteps.

A Wealth of Knowledge

You might not know it yet but you are now plugged into the psychological in depth workings of my mind. This wealth of knowledge is provided to you by yours truly, me... all for free too!

So love me or hate me, the truth will come out and the more debates, comments, opinions on it, the better. So don't hesitate to agree or disagree. But remember, I'm always right.
