iPod excellence

Our iPod wasn't working properly the last little while, the scroll wheel was partially dead. Fortunatley the person I bought it from had an extended warranty at Futureshop.
So yesterday, since we were in Toronto dropping Anne's sister off at the airport we stopped by a Futureshop to see what could be done.
Well after they glanced briefly at our old iPod, we left the store with a brand new 30GB Video iPod. Its really nice, the colour is crisp and clear and videos actually look a decent size and easy to see.
The videos will be nice for long trips and for Anne when she does long transfers and stuff.

I made 14 WRC rally highlights this year.
You can see them all on Google Video now.
Enjoy.
Hopefully can continue to do it this year.

Job Interview

So I finally had another job interview yesterday. This time it was for a PC Technician job for the City of Owen Sound (City? heehee).
Anyway, I really have no idea how the interview went. It was the type where 3 people (only 2 of which have a vague idea of what the job entails) and they asked about 15 questions right off of a script and then gave me marks for the answers. Some of the questions were quite simialr too so I just ended up repeating what I said earlier. I could see the marks that the IT manager was giving me and they were very low, and I know I am very qualified for the posotion and was give relevant and excellent answers, so it was weird. But maybe the other candidates we getting low marks too, but it really was they type of situations where a smoothing talking but poor technician could get the job.
There was also a 15 question quiz afterwards with old A+ Certification test questions. I aced if, but some of the questions were very out of date.
Regardless it's in the Lords hands and we will see if I get it.
