NDP attacks Harper with the worst ad ever - so bad I wanted to slap my computer

So the NDP has come out with an attack ad against Harper. 

I'd like to be able to tell you what the ad is about but I can't because it's the worst attack ad I've ever seen. Literally, this is the worst ad EVER.


The reason it's the worst ad ever?

Because the damn transitions go so fast that you can't finish reading what they say!  Forget about actually having a few seconds to absorb what you've read, you can't even finish reading it!

It's BEYOND frustrating to be reading the message and then to have it flip just as you're 80 per cent of the way through. It makes you want to slap your computer monitor. 

What's mind boggling about this is, did they not test the ad on folks before releasing it? It would have been obvious that the vast majority of people would not be able to finish reading the slides and as a result the whole ad was a giant waste of time.

A Look Back on 2017 / A Look Forward to 2018

Hard to believe it's been two years (and six books) since I started publishing. Thought I'd take a moment to look back on the journey, some of the highlights and what's in store for the future. Eyes Wide Open I had no idea what this publishing path would be like - I went in blind with nothing more than an interest in telling a story. It turned out to be way harder than I could have imagined. You'd think writing a book wouldn't be that difficult, but it is. It's not so much the book that readers see that's hard to produce, it's the ideas and writing that get left on the cutting room floor. But beyond the actual stories, learning Photoshop to do my own covers, understanding how to market my books, learning how to create print versions, and a dozen other things really opened my eyes to how much effort is required to get a book to market. Along the way I’ve had my moments where I questioned my sanity to put myself through the process. But...

E-cigarettes: A PR battle Health Canada cannot win?

So I've now been using an e-cigarette (e-cig) for two months and thought I'd talk a bit about how I see the upcoming battle between Health Canada and e-cigs going. First though, let's do a quick overview of what exactly an e-cig is. Basically an e-cig vaporizes liquid that contains nicotine. The vapor is then inhaled. People who use e-cigs are called vapers (not smokers). Because the liquid is atomized (ie. vaporized), not burned the way tobacco is, vapers do not consider themselves 'smokers' in anyway. An e-cig is comprised of basically three components: The tank - this is the component that holds the juice (sometimes referred to as e-juice or e-liquid). The atomizer - this a coil and wick unit that atomizes the juice. When the coil is heated (from the battery) it atomizes the juice that has soaked into the wick. The battery - batteries for e-cigs come in various capacities (some last 8 hours, others 40+ hours, depending on their size).  The ba...
