Tombstone



I did a search for Jonathan Barrett and was looking at images. (basically seeing who my fellow namesakes are out there). This is When I came across a tombstone with my name. It's kind of weird to see your own name on a tombstone.

Google Fight

Have you ever tried Google Fight?  The concept is to type in two separate words and see what one has more web pages associated with that word.  Kind of sounds boring when I think about it, but it can be good for a few moments of entertainment.

The Roof

 


Me and my brothers spend last weekend working on the roof at my parents place. I now have a new respect for people who roof for a living. It can be a tough job. Posted by Picasa

Google Database

I have been playing around with base.google.com (Google Database) for a few minutes. Honestly I was expecting more. To me it simply seems like it will become a big classified add program. I will admit I still don't now much about it (since it just started yesterday). A few important things about it is that information will be very quickly launched (15 minutes) on Google's search engine compared to possibly weeks for a normal personal page to appear in Google's search. Give it some time I am sure it will become big knowing Google.

London

I was randomly searching around for travel ideas on Sunday evening when I came across many flight specials to England.  For $418 (Plus Fees) I could fly to London on the 14th of December and return on the 31st.  I was thinking about it, but being that I have already been to London I doubt I will bother going again.   It is not on the top of my current To Do travel list.

Once the Snow Flies

 

I am trying to deceid if I want to go back to the Rockies this winter to get some more skiing in. Last year I went during Christmas and got about 10 days in, this year I would be going during Feb break when there is more of the deep white fluffy stuff. I had wanted to ski Whistler during that time, but it doesn't look like that is going to work out as planned.(Pict of me boarding at Whistler this past Spring) Posted by Picasa

Peggy's Cove


I can see why so many people like to visit Peggy's Cove. It is such a beautiful and interesting little place. The rugged coastline with little to no vegetation caused by the harsh salt breeze. It was a cool evening with a stiff breeze from off the ocean the evening that I went out. There were a few people milling around but by no means were there crowds as can be seen in the summer months. It was a perfect evening to get some great shots.

Hockey

It feels like hockey for most people has been up and running for about a month.  For me however, Saturday was my first time on the ice for the new season.  Boy did it feel good.  Five on and one spare per side of all out chaos.  I was great to get back on the ice.  I scored 3 goals as well.  Not bad compared to my normal scoring ability and me playing defence most of the game.  I need to get on the ice a lot more if I want to get back to were I would like to be though.  Only time will tell if I am able to find more quality ice time.
