The Countdown…
Posted on: January 18, 2012 at 12:19 pm | Posted under: LifeTags: Buffalo, countdown, Facebook | Comments: 4 Comments »
If we are friends on Facebook, then you most likely have seen my status updates involving a countdown. Many people have been speculating about what this countdown is related to, some are thinking I am getting married, others think I am moving and some even think I am going to be a father! I find it funny how many rumors there are and I guess it is about time that I squash them all.
Back in December, I got one of the best Christmas presents ever from Tara – a pair of tickets to a Buffalo Sabres game against the Pittsburgh Penguins. Knowing that Tara is not much of a hockey fan, this is an amazing gift from her and we are going to be spending the weekend together at the end of March in Buffalo. The gift is more than just a pair of tickets, it shows me that Tara is willing to take an interest in something that I love and wants to spend the time together cheering on my favorite NHL team.
So, there you have it. I am not moving, getting married or becoming a father. I am counting down to a weekend away in Buffalo with the person that means so much to me and I am really excited to spend the weekend away from work and just enjoy life :)
Falling Flat’s Facebook Contest
Posted on: March 29, 2009 at 10:54 am | Posted under: PodcastTags: contest, Facebook, Falling Flat, iPod Shuffle | Comments: 2 Comments »
Falling Flat, the podcast that AronPo and I produce on a weekly basis, is currently running a Facebook contest. The rules are pretty simple:
- Become a fan of Falling Flat on Facebook
- Leave a comment on the wall
- Invite your friends to become fans of the show
Now we know that we can’t tell if you invite your friends. We hope that if you enjoy the show as much as we enjoy putting it together that you will invite them.
As for the prize? We are giving away an iPod Shuffle (2nd generation). We considered giving away the new one, but I am highly opposed to the new shuffle and the need for a proprietary set of headphones. So we decided to reward the winner with the shuffle that actually has some controls on it :)
I hope that you check out the show if you have not had the chance. I think you will like it.
Cheers!
