I recently gave Centerpoint Energy a ring and asked if they could pull the records on what Carly and I have been paying for natural gas used in our home over the time we’ve owned it. CenterPoint provides up to 15 months of data on their website (login required) but will print and mail larger [...]
Cupcake Blogging, originally uploaded by edkohler. Kids these days and their cupcake blogging ways. Les Glaceurs Glaces & Cupcakes in Montreal does not disappoint.
Le Centre Sheraton Montreal TP, originally uploaded by edkohler. This place has dual flush toilets, eco-flow faucets, RFID room keys, gigantic pillows, and damn fine TP folding. A winning combination.
Slumlords have an information advantage over people who give a crap about their community. For example, the Hennepin County property website provides information on individual properties, but doesn’t allow people to cross-reference by owner.

After stumbling upon particularly redundant Twitter behavior, he dropped that comment. So, what was Charlie referring to? It started with this tweet from Luke Hellier at 12:29pm on January 15th: Within the same minute, Luke [...]
