Men and the Greek Alphabet

Remembering Art Bell of Coast to Coast AM
I’m not one for conspiracy theories, but I was feeling nostalgic last night and found myself taking a trip down memory lane. I visited YouTube and searched for Art Bell. Voila! There he was. Preserved in all his glory. It was as if he never left. His conversations with Michio Kaku, Terence McKenna, and so many more are still as impactful now as they were then.

Top Things to do in Vancouver
Being a native Vancouverite, I think I am qualified to speak on the topic of travel activities in my city. Do I like Vancouver? It’s complicated. But every year thousands of hopefuls flock here to look at the mountains, look at the water, and look at the trees.

Anyway, here are the top things to do in Vancouver.

On Being a Canucks Fan
I remember getting a Kirk McLean goalie mask miniature with my McDonald's Happy Meal. I still have my hockey card collection from all those years ago as well. If you grew up in Canada, chances are you fell in love with hockey at some point. If you grew up in the ’90s, you probably spent a great deal of time playing outside. I loved to play street hockey with the kids on my block. I’d go outside after school and bang my hockey stick on the asphalt alleyway. One by one, kids spilled out of their homes and the game was on.

Cybersecurity Basics You Need to Know
Someone recently gained access to an account of mine. It contained my banking information. Suffice it to say, I panicked. I spent the day changing my email addresses, updating my passwords, and enabling 2FA across my devices. Now I’m no expert, but neither are you. The great thing is that you don’t need to be a tech expert to practice good cybersecurity techniques.
