He's still around in the FCHL, but I guess he doesn't post here. I never noticed.

I really shouldn't be speaking for him, but he told me he was worried about prospective employers finding stuff he wrote years ago and holding it against him. He got rid of his Facebook account as well.

Actually it is not. It is now becoming common practice for employers to check facebook and other social media on applicants. I think it is a little crazy to do so but sadly many places are starting to do this. If they see the person has a questionable social life they pass on them. So you know if you got photo's of you drunk and partying all the time on your facebook and you don't properly use the security system in place to make it so only friends have access, then it could cost you in getting a job.

when my wife got hired by a municipal police force, they asked not only for her/our fb account, but the password as well - so certainly can see where this would become an issue. Come to think of it, we have most of you degens on ours - should have thought twice

(though, they did hire her so it can't be that bad)

I also work for one, and they actually took the step of announcing that "going forward" they would not check prospective employee's social media. Seems pretty clear they were before.
Asking for passwords is a definite invasion. A "special kind of paranoid."

http://www.nationalpost.com/sports/story.html?id=1867961That is freakin awesome. Doubly awesome because that Alomar home run is a significant turning point in my life (sports-wise). I was 8-years old, watching baseball, and this is the WAMCO season. Jays have already disappointed in 89 and 91, with me being too young to remember 85. So there we are, looking like we're going to disappoint again, and with aging free agents, who knows what could've happened next year.
Alomar nailing Eckersley was just so ****ing epic. The way he puts his arms up. That made me a sports fan for life. Did 10x more for me than Carter's homer. You just knew when he put his arms up that we were winning a world series. And when an 8-year old's home team wins a World Series, well he is just hooked. That homer is why baseball is my favourite sport, even though the NHL and NFL are so much more watchable. The way you can see a guy's face, and how his motions aren't encumbered by heavy equipment (Barry Bonds excluded) just creates moments you don't find in other sports.

what ever happened to Copernicus? I don't know if he posted much in here, but he was involved with the RTE, wasn't he? He still owes me some money from a bet we made in last year's playoffs, and he hasn't logged in since then. I shipped up front since I was new and he was well respected, oops.

Hmmm, from what I understand he's a solid dude. He got busy with his real job at some point in the last year or so, that's when he stopped posting. My guess is he just doesn't remember the bet. If I see him on AIM, I'll give him a nudge in your direction.
