Perspectives of a Canadian in the Old/Deep/New/Geographic South: This is where I ramble on about nothing in particular and post a few nice pictures.
Oh, this is just gross…
One can’t help but have this morbid fascination about what it looks like though.
More than 1,000 toads have puffed up and exploded in a Hamburg pond in recent weeks, and scientists still have no explanation for what’s causing the combustion, an official said Wednesday.
As soon as you send your exposure meters out for calibration, there are at least 2 pieces of new x-ray equipment that need acceptance testing the next week.
USCIS sent me not just one welcome letter informing me of my new permanent residency status, but 7 of them! Maybe this is some form of beaurocratic enthusiasm or something. One would have been just fine. But 7? I guess I could frame one, keep another one on file. Maybe friends and relatives would like one.
I’d better just file them away.
After 6 years of mostly faithful service, I said good bye to our 91 Honda Accord today. It really hadn’t been getting driven around much at all these past few months, and a few weeks ago decided not to start anymore. Plus there was something causing a slow drain on the battery. We decided that with all the outflow of money from the house, it was probably better to get rid of it. We don’t really need two cars right now anyway.
We ended up donating the car to the American Diabetes Association. I probably could have sold it for a decent price by spending some cash and getting it back up and running, but there’s not much spare cash at the moment to pump into the car to get it up and running. With our time frame for moving, donating the car seemed like it would be the most expedient way of disposing of the car rather than waiting for someone to come around and buy it.
Almost made it to 180 000 miles on the car too.
Happy anniversary to my lovely wife! Hard to believe we got married 4 years ago today. Doesn’t seem like it’s been that long at all. Looking forward to many more years to come.
