I used to drive a Ford Taurus, so it’s an ox. Get it? That’s comedy! The worst part of Canadian winters is when you get that thin layer of ice on the car. The one that’s too thick to defrost and too think for the scraper to get any bite into. And, of course, I can’t keep the car in a garage because then were would all my spare tires and half-completed projects live?

Today is 30c and I am melting.

Casa Loma was much cooler when I worked there. But the mayor had friends who ran night clubs and banquet halls. They wanted the castle. The most notable sign of decay was when the new catering company took over and stopped giving the leftovers to the staff. The old catering company gained a lot of good will with extra snacks.
Once, due to a scheduling mix up, they had an entire brunch buffet completely untouched. That was a good day to be working.

Seinar Fleet Systems’ Tie Defender is the best ship ever built. I first flew one in the game Tie Fighter ‘95 for windows. At the time, Dad was really in to flight simulators, so we had a joystick with all the buttons! Faster than an A-wing, and hits harder than a Y-wing, with hyper drive and shields. I was super happy to find out that my baby is cannon again.

One of my ex girlfriends was really offended when I mentioned I would choose a Tie Defender over her. My wife understands.
