Dave Tompkins :: Blog

Welcome to my blog...It's more of an occasional-random-quirky-thought blog or a check-out-this-cool-link blog than one of those this-is-what-i-had-for-breakfast-today-and-these-are-my-feelings-about-life blogs and it's definitely not one of those awful i'm-useful-and-have-important-things-to-say-and-i'm-contributing-to-society blogs. Enjoy.

While I'm backing up my notebook -- trying out the (relatively) new SyncToy from Microsoft... watching a Stargate SG-1 Episode, and who's on the screen? A friend of mine -- Ivan.

And then I started to think about my other friends who have IMDB entries... there's Ben and Michael from Western, and Brad and Orrin from Vancouver. Any others out there?

Happy new year. On my last veg-out day before going back to school, yesterday I was watching the South Park episode where they make fun of the Mormons... and I came across this website that shows the SP episode was often pretty close to the truth.
