Hey everyone. Can you do me a favour? Can you test out a web-based survey I created for a work project and see if it's worded clearly and the options make sense? The survey was here.
What we're doing is asking people about their travel habits to get an idea of demand around the city. The survey isn't live yet, so responses you give now won't be included in our data and won't skew our results, so go nuts.
Thanks for your help, if you did it.
Update: I took the link down because the survey will be going live soon. I made a few changes based on your comments... thanks.

Watching Chuck Tonight
Tonight is the season finale of my current favourite TV show, Chuck. Without the cable, I've been resorting to either waiting for the online streams or torrents to watch the latest episodes, but tonight I'm going to suffer through my staticy reception of CityTV to watch it at 8.
It's a show on the renew/cancellation bubble. It gets average ratings, and most years that would be enough for another season but next year NBC is getting rid of a third of their primetime lineup to be able to keep Jay Leno. I would suggest watching it, but in reality, any of us here in Canada won't have any influence on whether or not an American network renews a show. So, I highly suggest watching it from the beginning since it's only 2 seasons old (and the first was shortened by the writer's strike) and it can be considered a serial. For those who do follow the show, enjoy tonight's episode.

Last Asked For ID - Yesterday
Reset the clock. As of writing this, it's officially been 1 day since I was last carded for the purchase of alcohol. Apparently the lady at the Beer Store in Hamilton thought there was a chance I wasn't at least 19 years old.

Post Season
Last night was the first game of curling playoffs. We finished in 6th place (out of 7) and had to play the 3rd place team. It got off to a bad start with the other team scoring 3 points in the first end. We got 2 back next, but they scored another 3. So we were down 6-2 after 3 ends. We've been known to blow leads like that, but we've never came back from that far before. This time, we did. Here's how the scoreboard looked (baseball style, for your convenience). We were yellow.
Red    | 3 | 0 | 3 | 0 | 0 | 1 | 0 | 0 |   7
End    | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7 | 8 | Total
Yellow | 0 | 2 | 0 | 1 | 1 | 0 | 2 | 2 |   8
As you can see, we had to steal twice including 2 points in the last end. Next week is the last week for curling, win or lose. Hopefully we can go on an improbable run right at the end of the season.
