Our THZ-TV experience on WLTV with @garyvee
Well, it’s been over a week since we were featured on WLTV with Gary Vaynerchuk. I have to say it was a fantastic experience to be able to hangout with Gary and the rest of the people at Wine Library and be a part of his show. I was a bit intimidated when I saw The Great One on the show about a month before us, but I think Chris and I did alright… all I know is we had a great...

The "OutBack" Jam
Absolutely! It was a great time and a great experience… a few hiccups but other than that very solid!
quonset:
Saturday night, June 6th, we had an outdoor jam located in the back fields behind the Quonset. What a F’in good night. Almost a complete full moon in front of us and a well stocked fire, couldn’t ask for a better scenery than that.
After many hours of hard labor building the...

After watching some of the Pens vs. Canes game 2 last night and the final highlights today (I think Canada’s Top Model was on our TV or something so I decided it was a good time to get some sleep) it appears that it may be another Pittsburgh vs. Detroit final. Sorry Hawks & Canes fans… Okay, sorry Hawks fans but it appears as though it might be heading that way for a second...

Apologies to my American friends...
It’s Tuesday morning… the day after the Bruins beat Montreal 4-2 to go up 3-0 in the 2009 Playoffs. I am not writing this post to speak about the game… or the series or even hockey for that matter. As most know, I am a Canadian who loves the Bruins but today I am very embarrassed of how the fans in Montreal booed the National Anthem (again) before the start of the game last...

Quonset Jam - March 28th, 2009
Hey Everyone,
Here is something that is near and dear to my heart… the boys of Quonset! This is our new band jamming out a few of our tunes this past weekend. The sound quality isn’t great but you get the idea where we are going… and how much fun we are having :-)

My Ubuntu & Windows XP experience...
Hey Everyone, About a week ago, my brother Chris and I spoke about adding Windows to our already setup Ubuntu 8.10 systems. Why in the world would we want to do that you ask… First off, we have lots of love for Ubuntu but it’s tough to find some software for certain things (at this point we were searching for Video Editing software and without much luck for Linux). I also thought it...

Finishing up Twitter & Hockey App...
Hey Everyone,
Been pretty quiet the past few days… trying to dig in and finish up a cool Twitter/Hockey application that we’ve been working on for awhile over at The Hockey Zen.
We are ironing out the final bugs and hope to have it live soon! I’ll post more about it later… and anyone who wants to connect on twitter, hook me up at @anadeau
Peace out everyone!

Birthday weekend and lots of fun!
I just wanted to thank everyone for a great Birthday Weekend! We had a great party here at our house on Friday evening. Marianne cooked up some great tacos for us and 2 chocolate cakes (one made without Milk since the BDay boy is lactose intolerant).
Then last night we went to another friends house for a great party! It’s always nice to get away from the busy-ness of week to week tasks and...

Back from Mont Sainte-Anne & Old Quebec!
Hey Everyone,
We’ve arrived back from Quebec. We had a great vacation in Mont Sainte-Anne and also spent some time in Old Quebec. What a great place! We definitely want to get back there for some great food and the culture!
We really enjoyed the food, the culture and the people in Quebec! It was a great getaway for a few days and we’ll definitely be heading back that way in the...
WatchSome very cool footage here. Marianne takes the camera and also gets some great shots of Ethan and Ade!
Marianne couldn’t hold back from the Madonna tunes as you’ll see!
Also, I promise I am going faster than it looks… really… i swear!!! LOL
You can also feel the love at the end of this video when Ethan is stuck :)
WatchMarianne in action, cruising towards the camera… smooth as silk :)
We had a tonne of fun on the hill! The last day of riding was great weather and lots of fun!
WatchThis is very cool. They have a Maple Syrup Cabin about halfway down the hill. Great place for a break…
WatchEthan crusing down the hill, showing his stuff. He looks awesome in the video… and a little upset with his Mommy :( lol
This only his second day of snowboarding. He’s doing great.
WatchThe 3 of us heading up the Gondola on Saturday morning for some serious Snowboarding action and fun!
WatchSmall action video of Ethan and Marianne, our first time down the hill! By far the biggest hill I’ve ever been on. There weren’t a lot of people on the hill so it was very nice and peaceful! Just shortly after this video a thunderstorm rolled in and the chair lifts were closed for the rest of the day/night :(
WatchEthan coming down the hill and doing a great job after his 1 1/2 hour lesson! It was great.
WatchMarianne and myself waiting to see Ethan come down the hill during his Snowboard lesson…
WatchWe have arrived! Look out all other skiers and snowboarders at Mont Saint Anne!
Ethan and I tried to record some skiers going by the hotel room but just missed out of course. Ethan lets you know what the plan is for tomorrow and shows off his new car! Good times… More to follow…
WatchWe are ready to rock! The 3 of us describe the 8 hour drive, how awesome the hill is (and our hotel room… lol). I tried my best to get Ethan, Marianne, myself and the hill in the video so it’s a bit all over the place, enjoy!

I am excited to post videos, photos, text and whatever else I can think of here on my very own Tumblr page :) I’ll try to keep it fun and exciting with a touch of education (maybe lol)
