  • Tribal Mask

  • Back to Reality

    Had a blast in Mexico, but it’s now back to the reality that is Montreal’s Winter. You win some, you lose some. :p

  • Mexican ADSL Latency

    It’s not quite Sanibel Island, but pretty close. Usual is between 6-900ms. Kinda missing my Montreal 19ms latency (and greater than 0.07 Mb/s upload speed). Getting it all back in three days. 🙂

  • Moon and Venus at Sunrise

    As seen from the Playacar beach at 5:54 AM, Sunday, January 2nd, 2011. Venus was so large and bright, it actually shows up in the photo. Below is a screenshot of the same view in Star Walk.
