So our furnace woes continue. We've had ANOTHER tech look at (recommended from one of bdot's co-workers) and again... No great revelation. He did replace the pump which bdot, may or may not have killed. The tech looked at it for a while and the big solution for the device solely responsible for keeping us warm and not ruining our home... was to leave the panel off. I guess the intent here is for more air for get on the circuitry and dry out moisture. So far, as silly as it sounds... (we've had worse ideas recommended) it seems to be helping... I don't think the furnace has gone off. But since I'm typing this, I fully expect the spiteful unit to crap out any second... Sigh.
Bdot off to Orangeville for dinner with a friend. Ball hockey for me.
Hmm, i thought I had fixed my blog to get more accurate page views but it doesn't seem to have changed. I get 80% views from China. I have no idea what they are doing here. Likely just troll spider spam bots. Sigh.
I did a lot of game development this week... essentially gutting a lot of core systems and changing the game direction a bit. It is paying off... the game feels so much better...

Well, if last week's game was one of my better then this week's was certainly one of my worst. Just made a lot of really poor decisions with the ball that resulted in goals against. Sure, it happens but... We did tie it at one point but...they kept coming. This team has our number this season it seems. As I said to a teammate, the other team is trying to win to you know...It wasn't even that we were outworked or anything... just seemed they got a few lucky goals and their goalie gave us very little. At least I had a yummy postgame Pad Thai.
WOW! Reading the Cons voted in favour of keeping PP as their leader?!! What?! Wow... Talk about doubling down on stupid... That is remarkable.

I was right about the China bots. (They want ALL the data I guess) From Google Analytics: This pattern is most salient in views from "China", which increased from 41 to 72 week over week, and views from "United States" which increased by 52 from 0. This activity is indicative of bot traffic from irregular browsers with empty browser names.
Tough loss for the Sabres tonight. Couldn't get a PP goal and hit two posts. Sigh.
